So I was looking at dubstepforum.com and they have a thread stickied there (click read more to view the whole thread). It was talking about what dubstep "really is." I could not have been more appalled at what songs were listed there. The songs were boring and slow and nothing happened at all. It was like watching grass grow. Interesting if you speed it up to about a billion times its speed.

Hahaha, the typical dubstepforum welcome. Glad you found dubstep, it has proved to be one of the most diverse and resilient genres of music of our time. Definitely check out the "New To Dubstep" stickied thread at the top of the GD forum here. It's full of genre defining tunes that established dubstep as dubstep and have influenced countless newcomers since. One thing to keep in mind about dubstep, especially early dubstep is the power of the sub bass. If you can't hear the sub bass properly you're only going to be getting about 20-30% of the full effect of the music. A lot of newcomers (including most of my friends who are into dubstep) make this fatal mistake, and decide early on that they don't like the deeper/darker side of things.particle-jim wrote:get out... just get out and don't come back

If you don't have a proper subwoofer at home, buy one, or go to a friends house or studio or something. At the very least buy some proper headphones so you can hear the low end frequencies. While most music has a bassline that rides below the lead, the bassline in dubstep IS the lead, kapeesh?
You might not be into the earlier deep/dark sound, I know I wasn't right away, but I promise you, the longer you listen to the genre, the more appeal that the early dubstep sound will have. That is where the gold is, it's where everything you hear today in all its various distorted forms came from.
Cheers mate, happy listening.
I'm pretty certain that is talking about the 'new to dubstep' thread you just recommended lolSo I was looking at dubstepforum.com and they have a thread stickied there.
