Featured Article: Post-Dubstep

[of ekphrasis]

Hey Folk,

I wrote an article for my feature column on Paper Trail Music -- The Heart is Like an Oscilloscope. And this week I wrote on post-dubstep.

A Look at the Emerging Hybridized Sound of Post-Dubstep

I hoped to bring awareness to dubstep and its varying strains. It begins with a brief intro to dubstep and moves into its variations and success, and then considers the sounds of post-dubstep along with notable artists. Chekk it out! Thanks everyone. -- ekphrasis

lol @ the sentence "Post-dubstep is an after midnight hypnagogic dream with strains of dubstep’s incendiary spark."

at least you mention Pitchfork twice so it's quite clear where your influences in music journalism come from.

i was interested in reading this, but now what i've read it...

[ohoi]

not all dubstep has wobble
not everything is at 140 bpm
and four tet has been around since before the turn of the century...

and grime didnt "emerge" in 2010. i guess i understand what you were trying to say, but to the random person that might read that article, they'll get it confused.

don't really think this article is relevant now, if you haven't heard james blake or burial your quite behind! also calling these artists post-dubstep sort of accepts that to be 'dubstep' it has to be a half time wobbler. i don't think any style of music hans't ever evolved?

hardly post-dubstep if they're still doing 2step.

labels? we always need to pigeonhole, huh?

my article was unclear in parts, and brought up some contentions. I think the differences people mention are the fault of my phrasings. --

Thanks for the roguesfoam link, that guy is quite a gifted writer etc.
