Dubstep without the bassline is like dubstep youtube videos without the filth metaphors.

Yeah, for example Coki... makes midrange cack, without any sub to justify, I've been noticing subless tracks more and more, is that the end of dubstep?

Dubstep would be like this, but without the stimulants.

no sub?

try goblin.

I was making a sarcastic sweeping statement that I knew was gonna rub up some backs, hence why it was in tiny font, I actually don't mind tunes without sub as long as it has something else going on in the bass apart from just LFO Rate/Cutoff+Bitcrush but still Sub>all other bass.

Dubstep without bass is like a girl that's afraid of bum sex
(Uncommon and easily converted)

Just check some tunes with laptop speakers though... Gives some good insight into the world of EQ and mixing. Recently I've been cutting back on the actual sub tracks and trying to have bass as a property generated by the voices from the kick drums etc... Not the biggest fan o' hip hop, but can't help but be intruiged by the stylistic way they use big beefy bass stabs

Some tracks really suffer without bass though... Chainsaw calligraphy without subs is analogous to when superman got reduced to a wheelchair

Cackstep is pointless.

what are you even on about? i didnt say all coki tunes are based on subs did i
you look like a fool
coki has made plenty of good tunes and he has been doing it for time - if you dont like it fair enough but dont put it in your next little subgenre and call it pointless. fair enough there is a lot of copy cats but cokis innovation with his bass sounds and rhythms is impressive and if you dont appreciate then i pity you.

and there is nuff sub bass on goblin, it just isnt the main focus of the tune

As if your reputation as a trend-setter and a rebel couldn't get any bigger.

Yeah, some tracks will suck without bass and that's fine. But it's good if your songs don't rely on one element.

Yeah I dunno I have done tunes where a subby kick serves as a bassline without technically being a bassline. My point is as long as there is enough low end to give the song balance who gives a fuck.
