Hello all,

Hopefully I don't get trolled to oblivion, I know you alpaca fuckers love to hate (which is actually one of the reasons i find this forum so fun sometimes...), but I'm actually curious as to everyone's opinion on this stuff.

Lately I've started getting into artists like Gladkill, NastyNasty, Minnesota, MartyParty, Deathstar (Minnesota + MartyParty), and Guttstar.

They're certainly not deep dubstep, or dungeon, or dubby at all, but I wouldn't classify them quite as "bro" either. Some of the stuff is more aggro than others, but for some reason it doesn't fit the bill for me.

The drums, like brostep, are simple, but they're not the huge KICK SNARE KICK SNARE that I associate with it. As well, the basses are quite synthetic sounding, but they're not screechy and crap, more just... synthetic.

It almost seems like it's a fusion of hip hop inspired beats and dubstep... It's got the sub, it typically has a focus on the bassline, and the drums are halftime around 140 BPM, but the rhythms are sort of straight 8th, and slightly funky.

I've started to love this stuff, just wondering what your thoughts are.

Here's some examples of songs if ya'll haven't heard and want to have context for what I'm talking about:

Sidenote: Soundcloud This is my WIP attempt, I know this should belong in the collab section but if anyone likes it I've been hard pressed to find anyone who would want to work on this stuff with me.

Not really the right forum but go check out Crizzly.

Well, I was aiming for more of a production focused discussion of it. I'm curious about the style of this stuff in terms of the musical aspects, which I thought we were all about here...

Crizzly seems fun. But I'd say he's much more aggro than these guys I'm referring to. I've heard of "crunkstep", didn't know that this is what it was haha.

who gives a shit man. I love those artists. pantyraid, nasty nasty and 6 blocc are the shit haha. Alot of my tunes have the same feel as thiers. they are kinda hip hop inspired but i dont listen to hip hop at all. its more like crunk dubstep haha. make what sounds goood to ya. those artists still have some dubstep wobbles in em

yeaaaa boiiii.

The style is commonly called "glitch hop". There is a forum for it, and NastyNasty, Minnesota and Boris (Gladkill) post on it occasionally... So you can ask them things directly. I think Marty has also posted once or twice.

Google "forum glitch hop" and you will find it. I am also on there, show a brotha some <3

damn dude i thought glitch hop was something completely different. hmm ill have to check it out. thx for the lead:)
