Can dubstep learn from the mistakes of DnB?

[eophonic]

Interesting to read this thread in the context of history unfolding. "Communicate with the people...through the passage of time".

[fractal]

and here we stand, with great music still being made in both genres



ah, the internets!

[pompende]

it looks like the answer was "no"

yall ninjas are dumb

I dont think thats true. Look at house (since early 80s), look at hiphop
or techno.. All older styles than dnb or dubstep.. Theyre all still around,
they branched out into cheese but they also branched out in a smaller
segment of high quality innovative music - same will happen to dnb and
dubstep - who knows maybe the genre name will change a couple times
but who cares - genre names are only meant for journalists anyway lol.

pretty true statement right there. just pointing it out.

quality producers will always produce quality music in my opinion

disagree with this.

j majik...dillinja... oh dear

dubstep is the next step to music being just 'music' again. no other genre has such diversity featured in it's music.

i hope im not the only person who thinks dnb is actually better than dubstep atm

you are, dnb right seems like it's all jump up or liquid. not about it, the best dnb was made before the year 2000.

I agree with Dillinja but J majik is still making good tunes.

The thing is there is so much good dubstep being produced right now but also a lot of shite. Most people (on this forum particularly) seem to focus on the shit they hate rather than the stuff they dont and chat about it.

yes yes yes

every genre will always have it's prolific artists but dnb is nowhere near as alive as the dubstep scene will be for a while.
