Love Skrillex? Check this out!

Post by misk »



Not trying to start hate, but please understand that nothing anyone ever writes will touch this.

Dubstep is deep music, both in frequency and in feeling. This music may seem simple at first, but take the time and patience necessary to listen to the subtleties. Pinch could have thrown in so much more to this, but he exercised careful restraint to make a piece of work filled with an overwhelming sense of unresolved tension. The interplay of rhythm is so sparse, yet emotional and effective. It's not what you add, but sometimes what you choose to leave out, that makes for effective music.

A composer friend of mine once said "If you find some music you hate, keep listening to it till you find out why."

The music we all listen to and enjoy, much like anything in our lives, is a reflection of ourselves and how we perceive the world around us. If we feed our minds with music that requires no patience, that lack of patience grows like a weed in garden of your mind. If we strive, as listeners, to demand more from ourselves, our appreciation for art grows tenfold, and we begin to notice and understand better the subtleties of life. I know a lot of people who read this may be 18 and just getting into Dubstep, but there's more to this music than just the music, and theres a reason beyond the obvious, that people complain about artists like Skrillex. Music is a personal relationship with yourself. Can I give you a better reason to dig deep?

I would fucking bottle skrillex if he ever played in Wellington.

Am I the only one who actually doesn't like this tune so much?

I mean it was good when it came out, but honestly I've got bored of hearing it. Pinch has a lot better tunes out there.

I understand the troll effort, but you are aware that Skrillex isn't very popular on this forum right?

You're preachin to the choir.


I'd venture to say that if everyone stopped posting "skrillex sucks" dude would go completely unmentioned on this forum

I enjoy Pinch and I love this tune but I don't believe any of the Skrillex fans and going to understand this song listening to it on their macbook speakers....

I feel your pain about people not digging deeper, some people are just like that and it's a shame they are but ultimately it's their loss.

what the fuck are you talking about?

Almost every person on this forum knows who pinch is.

Almost every person on this forum prefers pinch over skrillex.


The problem is you turds are too busy making "SKRILLEX SUX THREADS" trying to show off to your internet buds instead of discussing the finer points of the dubstep you enjoy.
