Alligators are grey, or black when wet, but if you draw them like that people think it's wrong.
Likewise it's become accepted as fact that there are vast numbers of wobble tunes, when I don't think there actually are.
By the way, Learn is a wobbler and I know nobody's criticising that tune.

The thing about house is there's too many producers copying that 4/4 beat shit. And as for hip hop - too many producers are mimicking that broken up beat ting. DO SOMETHING ELSE. Like glue, or something.

I dont have a problem with all these dark tunes.
Theres eqully enough light / bouncy / skippy / ambient / melodica / industial type tunes to balance it all out.
I can see the sound slighty changing also, producers becoming alot more inventive.

"Dark" and "masculine" don't always go together though. Burial is dark as hell, but definitely not masculine. I don't think there is a problem with dark or masculine tunes, but i find there are quite a lot of uninventive dark/masculine ones.
On another note, "justice" by Subeena (correct me on spelling, cos i know i got that one wrong) is one of the darkest and most "masculine" sounding tunes i have ever heard, and that is made by a woman. Nice to see stereotypes being shaken up.

And you know what they say...
Once you dark, you never go bark...

dubstep is growing like a tree, many branches.
