sooo much hate, if you don't like it don't listen to it..
imo it isnt neros best tune but it'll still tear apart clubs and i reckon that should still be considered a positive thing.
big up nero :W:

this^ is the truth. when tunes are designed around big drops (like dnb), what you get is predictable music. when you go back to el-b/horsepower days and examine that music, its 5-6 min tunes without drops or build ups. totally unpredictable and mysterious.

the vibes and rollers are fading in 2009, to be replaced by moshpits, jump up and smash-your-face-off one hour sets which is exactly the reason why dnb has gotten so stupid in the last 5 years.


this.

I started buying dubstep because i really really missed the days when dnb tunes would roll out a subtly changing groove over a subby bassline with a few well chosen samples and switchups - dubstep was simultaneously a breath of fresh air to me as well as a gloriously nostalgic revisiting of all the musical tropes i enjoyed so much when i first discovered Jungle and DnB...


Ironically there's now far more decent creative fresh DnB around after all the really interesting DnB heads felt inspired enough to go back and make deep minimal tunes with subtle drops, subby basslines, rolling percussion and a few well chosen samples, while Dubstep at the generic UK student night level is turning into a drop-making contest (which is the same thing that RUINED DnB)

Trust me, as soon as people start expecting to hear wall to wall "double drops" of big noisy hypercompressed anthems in a set it's going to be pretty much over...



HAVING SAID THAT:::


I reckon Nero's Dubstep is millions of times more creative than their / his / hers / i dunno's DnB... That Streets bootleg and that "This Way" tune are guilty pleasures indeed.

lol @ nero's tracks being predictable. HELLO, ALL DUBSTEP IS PREDICTABLE. almost every track uses the exact same structure!!!

not saying it's good or bad, but to say nero is any more predictable than anyone else in the dubstep game (perhaps barring breakcore-turned-dubstep producers and lebelgeelectrod) is rubbish.

count the timing. hear the arrangement. listen for the builds and drops. 99% the same in every notable dubstep track.

no

early horsepower, kode 9 , digital mystikz and a load of others were completely unpredictable.
