pisses me off that because they're count and sinden they can release and sell this. that's not what dance music is about. im almost positive if some newcomer had made this track and posted it in dubs it would have been ignored at best and laughed out of the fucking door and flooded with alpacas at worst. but because its count and sinden 'big tune big tune!'
no. not big tune. i love count and sinden but this is an absolute joke.
who?
Let me guess, DnB producers?

no, electro. count's also known as herve. listen to his 'science of fear' tune for evidence of him producing reasonable dubstep.

do you mean real Electro or this terrible style of House music that people like to call Electro House?

please don't drag me into a 'real electro' argument, it's a name, i don't really care about archaic forms of synth pop, thanks. of course i mean electro house.
and if electro house is all terrible to you i don't think there's much point in the two of us communicating.

I think when it's done well, it's good. But I fail to see the mind-blowing aspect of MSTRKRFT's music.

I usually stick to NI Massive for my basslines because of the LFO routing options (esp the performance mode). Don't use presets if I can help it these days because if you use presets you run the risk of sounding the same as everyone else who has used that preset. Sometimes tweaking a good preset is irresistable though

Oh- and I don't just use it for wobbly bass. Its also great for just about any other type of sound you can mention (if used properly). I love it for making really bizzare sound fx for my psytrance tunes. I find it can be a bit TOO fat sometimes though and has to be heavily Equed and filtered to leave room for the rest of the tune.

I did, in reference to the multitudes of people who hype up their music.

electro house is too broad to scapegoat one hyped up dj in an attack on it as a whole.
if you don't think electro can blow your mind though, get yourself down to an erol alkan gig.

/checks this is the Dubstep forum and not the Breakcore forum.
And dubstep made by people who only listen to other dubstep is boring. People use the sounds and techniques that they like. They usually dont rule out using certain types of sound becuase they are afraid of being outside the boundaries of a genre. Or at least I would hope people wouldn't limit themselves that way.

Are you really that obsessed with genre titles. Its all electronic music.

I don't think there's such a thing as any overused synth if people are making new shit BUT I think a lot of the sounds that come from Reason synths are overused, especially when listening to fidget and other shit, man you can sometimes tell a Reason bassline a mile a way.
