Well there have already been major shifts in dubstep. If anything, dubstep has really made me pay attention to all emerging genres.
Also:
Weed. What if DMT, for example, was to become as easily available one day ?

For some people, like me, this music is a progressional thing.

I was thinking the other day, if someone had come to you in like 2000 or whatever and told you that in 8 years the biggest new thing in dance music was Half time, with ridiculous basslines, what would you have thought??

if you look at the electronic music genre evolution at the moment the most exiting things happen in Dubstep.
there will be time when Dubstep will burn out just like dnb.
and all this time my dubstep tracks have been around 140... does that mean it's gonna implode?
Lol who the hell makes dubstep at 90bpm??
You'd just be making a never ending DnB breakdown

dubstep is the last form of music, the end of the world is nigh.

One day, every possible combination of note, pitch and sound will have been produced and we will have essentially 'run out of music'. By the time this happens, new tunes (which will only appear two or three times a year due to the lack of available new musical combinations) will be selling at over $4000 a unit and the world's economy will be entirely imbalanced.
Yet another example of man's insatiable greed. Tsk.

To be fair there are a handful of dubstep tunes written at 90bpm but it could be argued that those tunes are actually dnb just with a halfstep beat. Most dubstep is 70/140 give or take. Listen to dubstep or ask some producers

Try listening again at 45rpm.
