out of interest, do you listen to any house?

Not really. Techno sometimes.

ah, well theres the problem.

when you listen to the sound they're tyring to rip off (ie chandler, dope, terry, morillo) you realise its just a piss poor, increadibly soulless imitation.

You're making a groundless assumption. You are basically saying because I don't listen to a certain subset of artists that I can't come to the conclusion that another artist is good.

Also saying something is soulless is intellectually lazy, generic, cliched and content free. It's absolutely meaningless and completely subjective because the definition of Soul (other than the genre of R&B/Soul) varies widely depending upon the person.

Also the majority of the professional music critic community for the most part disagrees that Disclosure is a cheap imitation as Settle is among the most critically acclaimed electronic albums of year so far.


And generally what I find is music fans make the determination of what is "ripped off" and what is "influenced by" on whether or not they like a particular artist. If they like an artist that sounds like similar groups they're paying homage, if they dislike the group they're "stealing."

Is music often not grounded in similar work? Was early dubstep not stylistically similar to darker garage?

im not saying thats what they go out there to do. its just how their sound comes across, and i dont think you can deny that tbh.

it most likely doesnt help that it gets called "deep house" either, it disregards a good 20+ years of music thats come before them.

I just started producing but have been sampling various records for about 2 years without even thinking about organizing these motherfuckers. Gotta make a nice cup of coffee, print this wonderful tutorial http://www.dubstepforum.com/organising- ... 33144.html and stare at it for the following few hours
