i totally understand that "soundsystem" aspect of such a live show, but i think what most people, that are critical of his show, are trying to say, is that it just doesn't come across that well.

it's something different when you watch david rodigan just play tune after tune and talk over it. that's ...

as a dj you always want to have those crazy dubplates that the the producer and "big name" dj's are dropping but maybe think about it this way, maybe cutting and playing dubs ISN'T about a forthcoming release?

in many other musical styles (e.g. house) playing promo copies of a future release is ...

this tune was already used for a tune... eastern jam by chase & status, obviously...

so making a new tune out this would be quite boring, as it has been done before..

this must be one the biggest disappointments in the whole "dubstep history".

don't get me wrong, rusko is a great producer and has innovated many things with his style over the years, no doubt.

but that remix is just pure shite. yeah, heavy bassline, but that's it. SHIT vocals, SHIT original tune ...

of course it sucks that the tune is getting played, but from the tracklist with wrong title, nobody will find out who really made the tune (e.h. the kiss show). that can happen and of course isn't good, but people make mistakes.

maybe from now on rusko will pay more attention how he names the tunes ...

tune sounds pretty uninspired, imho... quite "cold" electronic production. of course you might say, that's taste but to me it sounds like a quick production on the computer with state-of-the-art software, tweek some presets sounds, put in a very un-rythmic tempo-change in the song and off you go ...

yo dude, just to let you know, it's NOT LEGAL to sell mix cds off ebay, if you haven't licensed the individual tracks from the original artists / labels.

and promoting a dubstep night by selling of mix cd's without paying the artists is pretty weak... :?:

ok, your post makes sense. didn't think about this topic in that way...

my post was more "general". not focusing on what an individual artist earns, i just meant general assumptions. as i said, e.g. "you get about 300 quid if you are a semi-famous dj at fwd", whatever... ;)

well, if the tinnitus is severe there basically is no cure. most important thing is (after a night of loud music and waking up with massive ringing ears):

silence.

the ear can handle a certain amount of loudness for quite a while (being in a club for a few hours is probably less damaging then a ...

this is exactly how formulating a genre starts. by saying "he stole that dubstep beat or style" etc, which means you have an extremely strong expectance of what dubstep is (actually it should be a very versatile genre, just like kode 9 said something like "in a perfect world, all you need is a deep ...
