    Two notable details of your clip, S80:

    The number of shits texting during the music. Gee, got some hottie on the other end you're trying to rope into this sausage fest?
    The majority of the crowd appear to be dirty hippies; the plumber crack from the one girl towards the end is an especially nice touch.

    Dubstep is nothing but another marketing ploy used to sell you the same shit at half the speed. It is dnb without the imagination. Unsurprisingly, it generally attracts hipsters and scum sucking hippie filth. Some of Mordant Music's work has been 'classified' under this moniker. Nothing could be further from what it actually is. But labels and the press have no time for accuracy as more often than not, one is in the pocket of the other and so these idiotic 'sub-genres' continue to proliferate like maggots on a corpse.

    Props to all who have posted Hecq's latest offering, it truly is an astonishing slab of vinyl.

  3. I don't care if anyone else likes it or not. I just think it is fun to make. I made another track tonight just fucking around with VST's. It's nice to just forget about rigid structure and just get into the groove and noisy textures of music again.

    Holy shit, thanks S80 for that video. I had tears streaming down my face. I couldn't stop laughing.

    that's right, I was discussing Lorn with you before.

    I just got his album and it is pretty sick. I just have in the back of my mind that it isn't really dubstep, but agressive hip hop, but then again who cares?!

    this isn't on the album, and I don't know if he did this as a remix or if its just someone's mashup, but this is great:

  6. It's part of a set of various remixes

    I know what you are saying though-in regards to the style of genre. All the really good "dubstep", artists do not confine themselves to only that. They also make great Drum & Bass, Drum and Noise, Electronica, even some dabble in what I would call industrial.

    Along those lines is Skream. I love this song.

    I played this one last weekend on an industrial party. I need to get that Noisia EP as well. I haz the album, but the 16 bit mix is not on it.

  10. Here is another one-free to download, open to criticism. I am not changing my own style, I just find that this stuff is really fun to make and experiment with.

    as with the bulk of the content i've heard in the maze of infinite subgenres, great textures! but where are the "songs"? i love the kick ass programming, i'd just like to be left with a lingering melody or something when the glitchtastic abuse ends.

  12. Much like everything else, there's good dubstep.

    This one's got a good melody, and isn't nearly as formulaic as most of the dubstep i've heard. This genre will, by my predictions, really hit it's stride when people move on to the next big thing.

    And I gotta laugh at Psychopomp here. "I hate something because people I dislike like it". Enjoy having your choices dictated by other people for the rest of your fucking life. If I completely turned down a genre like Goa Trance just because I hate the fact that a lot of it's made by people who don't know the first thing about music and pirate all their "instruments", i'd be missing some of the gems.

  13. @Steve-that is somewhat my complaint as well. As with most music that is instrumental, I hear places that vocals would fit and this style drives me fucking nuts. Most the vocals that show up are dist rapping or one shots with delay. Maybe some house style singing. It is all very predictable.

    I am going to make some dub step with vocals. I am just curious to see how it will turn out. Can you imagine Dub Step or Filth with some Ogre vocals. Man, I would lose my fucking mind.

    @Kryo-that is a cool track. I have heard that project before and was never that into that they did. but they really hit it with that one.

  14. I love the guys criticizing the dubstep dancing can honestly say a lot of the "industrial" style dancing is any better with a straight face.

    "Bro-step" is frighteningly more industrial than a lot of so-called industrial out there. gritty, glitchy electronics with no real structure, just aggressive and noisey. I can sorta dig it, but I fucking HATE reggae and so much of *step relies on those reggae/ska beats.

    Also: I see more hot chicks at the dubstep parties than at the Das Bunker... ;)

    no doubt, they need to bring in some talent for a remix at least. cross pollenate the subgenres!

    Hmm I actually think this music is pretty good from the examples you all posted but I think I am more prone to like stuff with vocals. Any vocal dubstep out there?

    Posted 1 year ago #
  19. Yes, but not vocals like you probably would enjoy-being a fan of industrial. The vocals are usually sparse and fragmented, not really song oriented. Almost like samples most of the time. Also there is some distorted rapping that is kinda cool.
