haha nah man, you took that out of context. not homophobe. as in homosexual, homophobe. as in dousche or a person ignorant to any sort of respect or common sense.

poor choice of words on my part.

STL knows how to get down to dubstep....nuff said.

hahaha for sure! it helps when we have really talented artists who put on really good shows. i still remember your show, 2720 was going pretty hard that night for sure haha.

idk what it is about st. louis but (and i think you can back me up on this) for whatever reason, a lot of DJ's really like STL and i think we have a lot of genuine dubstep fans and a lack of super ignorant people, and just full of people who love dub and love to get down

Yes, dub is a genre of mostly instrumental reggae that came out of Jamaica in the late 60's renown for being bass heavy and heavily rooted in sound system and dubplate culture, dubstep is shit.

dub is short for dubstep... the thread title is "what ruined dubstep" and all anyones been talking about is dubstep, so i think it would be safe to assume that dub is just being used as a short-hand for dubstep. differentiated.


people just have different terminology depending on where you are in the world...

Not really, dub and dubstep are 2 completely different things. King Tubby, Harry J
etc.. thats dub.
Sorry im a bit of a pedant reggae fan.

...chatting absolute air about dubstep

when I hear some really good dubstep, typically I just feel like I could kill somebody, I feel so gangster, like I've got a glock in my pants

i mean where im at, dub is still growing. it hasnt hit main stream or "trendy" *YET*, and we have a pretty cool scene with a lot of local DJ talent that are doing the local shows, but also bringing in the bigger names which they open for, generating interest and promoting themselves.

just in the past couple of months we have had some pretty big names roll thru including EOTO, Zeds Dead, Reso, Siren, Broken Note, Smilodon and Toffler, HD4000, Two Fresh, Vibe Squad, Caspa, and a few others. and coming up we have some good shows including 12th Planet, Nero, and talk of Rusko, so i mean we have a decent little scene going, but the cool thing is that even with names like these, we arent drawing MASSIVE crowds. probably somewhere between 300-500 people for the bigger names and it usually the same cool people who are not fanboys or nutsingers (but of course those type of people will be there)

so luckily dubstep has not been ruined here yet, but honestly whats made it shittier around here is main stream rap (or "radio rap") remixes. I say this because people who have never heard the genre before youtube their rap-pop and then they will see a dubstep remix and so they click it, like it, and start following related links until they think they are THE dubsteppaahh.

Example- this guy recently denounced dubstep to me, saying it was retarded and "just a bunch of noise." Then he caught a hold of a rap remix he like and a week later is saying that tracks are "filthy" and that he "only listens to grime." and comes up to me and asks me if ive ever heard of Caspa. lol. so thats whats going to be the downfall i think. nut swinging fanboy homophobe.. but hopefully not here in St. Louis for a long time.

i mean, i know if you want to be specific they are 2 different things, but i think it was easy to understand what i meant through the context of what i was saying. i am, as well, a big reggae fan but you are from the UK and i am from the US and we just have different terminology. if you said dub around where i am, people would automatically think dubstep. and it wasnt like i was saying "dub is so cool!" or some other open ended statement, i gave specific examples of dubSTEP artists. should not have been that hard to understand, at least i didnt mean for it to be. sorry if you got confused.
