Only skrillex?
[QUOTE=FalconKrunch;36647059]Ofcourse they only play Skrillex. Here listen to some good tunes compared to that shit: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqYCwK4BZK0&feature=relmfu[/media][/QUOTE] Is that dubstep? 'Cause I really like this but I'd never have considered it dubstep... or do you jsut mean good electronic music?
[QUOTE=Scotchair;36647404]Is that dubstep? 'Cause I really like this but I'd never have considered it dubstep... or do you jsut mean good electronic music?[/QUOTE] I think that Skrillex is just so bad at making dubstep it doesn't sound anything like how it's meant to
[QUOTE=Cone;36647424]I think that Skrillex is just so bad at making dubstep it doesn't sound anything like how it's meant to[/QUOTE] It's actually a result of an ''evolution'' of Dubstep, Skrillex pretty much produces an offshoot of ''Brostep'' (amongst his other stuff), a bass driven and noisy sub-genre of Dubstep that's aimed towards parties and clubs.
I have no idea what dubstep is and what isn't I'm so out of the loop on that subject and I don't even care really I feel old
on topic, i fucking love these kids/teens/elders react videos. Particularly the kids ones, they can be so insightful sometimes... like the Kony2012 or Bin Laden episodes.
I have no idea whats dubstep or not now. I thought it was just some noise with some fast wubwubwub in the middle but apparently its not
Hahaha Owen is awesome.
Am I the only one tired of these "X reacts to Dubstep" videos? And they always, [i]always[/i] play Skrillex to convince everyone that Dubstep is horrible and you should never listen to it. That's like making a video called "My mother reacts to Rock" where I just scream at her face for five minutes.
[QUOTE=LittleFenrir;36644577]Why is it always Skrillex? Why not any of the good dubstep?[/QUOTE] becuz skrillix invented dubstep!!
Skrillex sounds surprisingly good at times.
There is so much pretentiousness surrounding the dubstep genre. I personally like Skrillex.
[QUOTE=Hullu V3;36648162]Skrillex sounds surprisingly good at times.[/QUOTE] His songs have moments, but the overall composition is awful. Like that "OH MY GOD!" vocal from Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites is completely out of place, especially because there is a calm vocal right before it. I guess bangarang is his best song yet though.

'Cause I really like this but I'd never have considered it dubstep... or do you jsut mean good electronic music?[/QUOTE] That is dubstep, it's called "Liquid" dubstep though. Another one of those subgenres.
There is decent dubstep out there, you just have to look beyond Skrillex/UKF [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BTMbI4hnKE[/media]

Electric-pop fusion, maybe?
Blackmill mostly makes "chillstep" which is exactly what it sounds like: chill dubstep.
[QUOTE=Scotchair;36647404]Is that dubstep? 'Cause I really like this but I'd never have considered it dubstep... or do you jsut mean good electronic music?[/QUOTE] It's dubstep. Blackmill is a dubstep artist.
[QUOTE=Vodkavia;36654990]I don't get the hatred for dubstep, to me it's just drum and bass with excessive FX and wubbing. Specifically what's with the hate for Skrillex, his stuff's dubstep too and it's not like it's some how "worse" than anything you guys happen to listen to.[/QUOTE] Skrillex's ''fans'' (aka the lot that usually pay attention to mainstream top 40 charts) usually put him on a pedestal and claim that he's the pinnacle of Dubstep.
Wow, they know to much "internet-ey" stuff I actually had to googgle NFW...
I wish scary monsters and nice sprites wasn't so well regarded, it's probably one of his worst. I understand what he's trying to do with it, but it just doesn't work; the moment the wubs start everything that had been building dissolves.
Obligatory Burial post. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QS38JBh5gcw[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ni7NoQXq13k[/media] My reaction: People say they hate dubstep but when presented with real and/or good dubstep they say it isn't dubstep.
Need to remix elders making dubstep noises into a dubstep song now.
always coldplay, never radiohead always skrillex, never burial
Why doesn't anyone ever mention Klaypex or Mt. Eden when talking about dubstep? It's not like SKRILLEX is the only "dubstep" artist out there, just take a listen to these: [video=youtube;Ka9nGBzKekk]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka9nGBzKekk[/video] [video=youtube;Nymjfq2kXnI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nymjfq2kXnI[/video]
Gotta say I like this a lot more than kids react or teens react or any variant on that, it's really interesting to hear what these people think
If you're going to reference Mt. Eden you can only use Sierra Leone. Also that song was what introduced me to dubstep.
Thanks for the avatar, Rhoda.
I loves me some Dubstep. Wish they hadn't used Skrillex, 'cause the one they played was pretty much his only almost decent song. Should've tried Klaypex or Mt. Eden or Ephixa or something. [QUOTE=Webby2020;36657335]If you're going to reference Mt. Eden you can only use Sierra Leone. Also that song was what introduced me to dubstep.[/QUOTE] Same here actually, but Mt. Eden has a lot more to offer than Sierra Leone. I'm listening to Let Go right now, probably will listen to Silence next. Bat for Lashes is good as well, so is Beautiful Lies and When Will the Storm Begin. You just gotta look around a bit, yeah? EDIT: Also check out some Klaypex, like posted above. Lights is good and so is Go Around and Hey Hey. Klaypex is more upbeat than Mt. Eden, though.
