same conversation happened in dnb when pendulum attracted a whole load of floaters into dnb... i used to be of the opinion that it was in some way 'diluting' the scene cos everyone was playing cheesy tunes. But i think the dnb night i run wouldn't be half as popular if it weren't for pendulum.

Same goes for all music imo. The kids get into it cos it's the new cool thing (e.g. garage/2-step in the late 90s), but as time goes on they develop their own opinions and new music is born (eg. dubstep).

nu-rave isn't a genre tho that's the problem. it's a fabricated genre consisting of the teenage angsty rock/indie genre dressed up in silly clothes and given a synth.... woo they've got a SYNTH! omg it's so groundbreaking

thanks to NME etc.

Yeah, to be fair we all go on about how great dubstep is, we can't really act surprised when other people start liking it...
