lol getting that sloppy?

im one of the ones who started producin on dubstep. never heard any kind of music that made me want to create it myself untill i heard dubstep. (im 19 and only have really listen to hiphop, metal, and very small amounts of electronic music eg. trance/ techno whilst growing up)

im still very new, ive been slowly teachin myself how to produce through this forum, and other websites for like 4 months now.

started on dubstep yeh, tried other genres a bit but nothing really good has came out. When i am not making dubstep it is soundscapes, funky, dnb.

1. some weird shit that was a mixture of hip-hop and god knows what
2. some less weird shit that sits at 155 bpm, has a bit of dubstep influence, but wouldn't be called dubstep by anybody who listens to dubstep lol.

It's a sad thing I can't actually put an exact genre on my beats...I'm not trying to make it sound anything more than it is...but I end up listening to my shit so much during and after I make it that I haven't the slighest clue what it is.

Indie, live bands, some hip hop, metal,dubstep
not in any particular order

Same here, started around 2003, tried DNB but respected the sound so much, i did not produce much of it cause it was not up to par with what was around. I did not know how to manipulate Oscilators. And never got the concept of ghost snares.

Went the Hip-Hop route and sampled lotsa tunes. In the process I started making the hip-hop hybrid you speak of. I guess I was learning but the Hip-hop sound is so much in a box that once you experiment with it or add your own flavor it does not sound the same. I have beats loops whatever, but they are really chill.

Now im being too lazy and not making much. Dubs and Hip Hops once in a while. I was listening to some Hardcore Techno 200 bpm's the other day while rummaging through my closet. I will try to make some of that soon.

yeah man at the time I listening to a lot of Madlib on repeat for hours and hours, days and days, weeks and weeks, those were like the "How To Make A Beat" guides. I was essentially trying to be him...but then I got interested in warping the samples and reversing them and so on....I dunno...it ended up very strange, because he doesn't really warp anything. And then in some instances I would try doing his more blatant sampling; like some of his tunes that couldn't be released because it would be too heatscore. Funny, if we had both continued down the route it might've developed into something crazy...but independently of each other.

I could never actively try and recapture that shit. Those days are gone (even though it wasn't that long ago).

I'm back to sampling though...random shit.

pop> garage> proto-grime > forward music> silkie lol

Idm -> Breakcore -> Electronic Go-Go -> Dubstep

I'm also getting into producing baltimore club.

I'm probably like twice as old as most of you whippersnaps...

~Punk/Hardcore ('77 & '83 eras, respectively);

~Hip-Hop & Speed Metal in the late eighties;

~Art/Experimental Rock, Noise Rock, Indie, early Rave stuff (incl. Detroit techno & Acid House) & Roots Reggae through the early nineties;

~JUNGLIST 4 LIFE!... heard Jungle/DnB first around '94, by '96 (Year of the Darkness) it was practically all I listened to;

~Breaks, IDM, Breakcore, and of all things Classic Country in late nineties through early 00's..

~ Dubstep in 2004 via the first Dubstep Allstars comp on Tempa; was listening to some of the underground UK sounds (Grime, Eski, 16-Bar) coming out but when I heard Dubstep it was like coming home.

Started out playing guitar in bands in the late 80's. Punk and Metal and shit like that.

Then DNB predominantly from 95 to 05.

05 to present dubstep.

I have experimented with other shit over the years but there isn't much to talk about there.

came from d+b/idm-y sort of stuff.
