Now with that, both the scene and the audiences down in NO appear to be so young that the bro' is the only thing they know of the dubstep. Not necesarrily their fault, if you ask "where do i go to find some dubstep songs" and someone says beatport & juno... fair enough, that's what you're gonna find.
To my ears, the 150bpm, super-hard quantized, robot death squad sound is just kinda sexless-- it's the same vibe that I generally hate about tearout breaks. But to the kids, it's exciting and brand new... can't fault 'em on that.
Eitherway, the gig went off, smiles all around, the guys who were shocking out to the bro continued to shock out and it became less of a 'oh my god this tune is sick!" party and more of a full-on, good-vibes dance party.

while i personally don't 'get' or enjoy it, I see where kids do. Best thing we can do as DJ's is use that as open door to broaden the sounds people dig-- which broaden the audience, which will

unfortunately if you weren't looking at the bigger picture and that was the simple answer, this thread wouldn't be nearly 19 pages longTragic Gash wrote:WINNERpaistyboy wrote:each to their own
Man have you ever listened to feotus stomper or downer drowner? Extreme bro-step! You would fucking hate them.kizza2435 wrote:In all seriousness though...
im predominantly a metal head, and i have to say that I really dont dig bands that put little to no thought into their band name. I hate all those names that try to out brutal each other like "Carcass Grinder", and "Anal tnuc" and all that shite. People that dont put thought into their acts name really make it hard to appreciate, because to me it cheapens the music.
This is the case i have found with producers like Fuctcase especially. That is a ridiculous name. Bare Noise also sounds very unoriginal. In fact most of the producers in that vein all have names that pretty much say exactly what you expect...trolly shatcha etc. their names just sound unoriginal and not very well thought out.
If you are a new producer, please give some serious thought to your name. Remember that this is something that is going to be associated with you for the your dubstep career , and all I know is that if I was about to start releasing tracks and I told my mates that i was considering calling myself Funtcase, I would get a fucking slap for coming up with something so fucking stupid and ridiculous.
Fuck me, we don't even need a forum. I'm off to play World of Warcraft and download Japanese Porn.paistyboy wrote:each to their own

When exactly were you in New Orleans? What year frame? There was a lull from like 2000-2002 but outside that New Orleans has been a staple of the US scene for the past 20 years. The amount of top level talent brought through New Orleans is ridiculous. Some of the Disco parties are beyond legendary. Been to at least 40-50 parties in New Orleans, played at least a dozen and never been robbed, stabbed, or shot.EBR wrote: The scene in New Orleans is a cracked out, junkie, drunken, backstabbing popularity contest of total shit.
