it has but still deffo more 303, just less of the other shit
imo 303s and drums made of things hitting each other would be the way to go
and push it up to maybe 135

Less Burial rip-offs and 808 house
Also, more people experimenting with hardware. Expensive but I think it could allow for some more creativity. Software is great but so many producers rely on the same presets and VSTs
what is 808 house?
blanket term I use to describe the lazy UK house / 'bass music' sound that is popular atm. Typically features heavy use of the 808 kick and cowbell and looped vocal snippets
basically french fries then
Wasn't specifically referring to French Fries but yeah his stuff and other stuff like that. Although I'm sure I'm guilty of owning a few tunes like that

LESS FLYLO RIPOFFS OMFG!1111. I've checked out heaps of music lately, man. And why are there so many FlyLo clones? Put those drums back on the grid, they don't sound 'loose', they sound bad and kill the energy. Going 'off the grid' is done to allow more freedom in creating groove and placing drumhits. If it's just done for the sake of it, sell all your music gear and put Ableton in the recycle bin. Write a shitty music blog instead, ugh.

If you have off beat drums cuz they's sound good, cool.
If you're doing it for the sake of it and turn it into a 'LUK HOW LOOSE MAH DRUMS R' jerk-off, then yeah bad.
Sometimes a certain original aesthetic becomes popular and then copycats isolate that original aesthetic, turn it into the point of the music ITSELF and then I think "cool man, you have some purty loose drums here, but where's the tune?'. This also happened post-Burial where suddenly EVERYONE wanted to have a 'Burial shuffle'. Burial's drums sound good cuz they're good, they just happen to be shuffly. 'Outshuffling' Burial won't make your drums sound better, just shuffly. And I've heard some drumprogramming where the whole impact was lost because of the ubershuffle. It sounded so slow
Cloning isn't bad, ripping-off or trying to incorporate an aesthetic into your choons is all good. But when it turns into fetishizing that aesthetic, it's not fun to listen to me anymore. It's like listening some super technical guitar shredder or whiteboy fusion jazz.
