Why are even surprised by that? If it's top its commercial, if it's commercial its a bag of shit. Simple.

Lots of good music gets into the top 20.

You're sounding like some narrow minded school kid in that "if it's not MY chosen genre of music it's shit" stage.

only seen this now and wanted to reply.
1. just wanted to express my oppinion. gantz's shuffled drum patterns were a nice change, but I feel like they've been overused. nobody needs to agree with me here.
2. english is my third language. let's have the same conversation in french and german once so I may find myself in the position to point out your stilistic failures. I realise my english is far from being perfect (or even good), but I think most people understand what I'm trying to say. It'd be nice if you could make an effort aswell and be decent about my obvious weaknesses.

i get what u mean mon :w: dont sweat it

but i dont agree with u haha
i dont see how more shuffley beats in dubstep is a bad thing, as long as it doesnt get "future garage". i wouldnt say its overused at all

i mean... gantz biting is not legit... but it is so obvious, his style is unique its impossible not to hear a gantz impersonation.
that quest tune isnt as bad i guess

eh mahdy jr has a kinda similar style with some of his drums, but thats understandable since theyve produced stuff together & got dat turkish connection

Could you ever hone in or completely ignore one sound within many? Like having tunnel vision and blocking everything else out entirely?

For example...
You're sitting in a park. There are a multitude of sound events taking place. But, you hone in on the sound of one persons footsteps and cannot hear anything else at all.


That'd take an incredible amount of brain power.

feel so bad for all of the people in israel who are normal, and not insane zionistic war mongering zealots

that country should never have existed. fuck the allies after world war 2 for that shit. idiots.


"Gaza was bombarded with 273 airstrikes yesterday (8th July). That's an average of 11 an hour. Gaza is about 25 miles long and 4 miles wide, with a population of 1.7 million crammed into that tiny space. It is under Israeli occupation and Israeli siege. Hospitals estimate they will run out of resources to treat the wounded in about two days. Electricity is intermittent. Gaza has no army, air force or navy. Israel is the fourth largest military power in the world. Resistance to occupation is allowed under international law. Israel's occupation, siege and collective punishment of Gaza is not." - Palestine Solidarity Campaign UK

I was poking more fun at the fact when a producer comes out with a 'new' style, most people just instantly want more. And then all of a sudden something different, when that 'sound' gets 'played out'. The producers are just normal-ish blokes. Not progressive art machines.

Just annoys me, all of our society seems to have a fetish for 'progression' which results in never appreciating the 'now'. Always looking forward, but never being happy, and thinking the past was better when you get into the 'future'.

Your English is fine man, and I didnt mean to try to pick it apart or anything. Big up to you for knowing several languages. I barely know English myself and its my first language.

fair play man :Q:
sorry I got a bit upset; took it the wrong way.

Nah Gantz is fine and he shall continue doing what he enjoys most. I like almost all of his beats and everything, but shit tends to get boring once producers try to mimick eachother instead of focusing on their individual strenghts. And I feel like the latter part's what made dubstep a bit exciting again in the last couple of months - different producers with different styles, innit. Look at Thelem for example; went from being another dungeon copycat (lol sorry) on to finding his own style and crushing dances with it. Shuffled drumwork is fine and all, but maybe some guys need to find their own style of doing it (like Ramadanman back when) instead of biting Gantz.
