Since hearing IPECAC by mindkontrolultra (Link for the interested), I've been quite taken with halfstep, but I've only found a handful of tunes and most of them are from Soundcloud, and since halfstep isn't really an established genre name (and debatably a "genre" in the first place), I haven't really found much else. So I come to you in hopes of getting recommendations of labels, tracks or producers. Any takers?
oddly, no. and ive always had an issue with that. Halfstep is a half time 2 step. thus it should actually be 1 step, or simply 'step'. quarter step should thus move up to halfstep. two halfsteps equal a 2 step, and thats just fucked.
wouldnt call it a genre either.

My perception of the world has just been fucked. Up is now down. Left is right. Skrillex isn't shit. Everythings backwards!

And then there's PiStep... it's in 3.14159265 time.
Not to be confused with PissStep, of course.
