oh chill out drama queen.

it seems like people who hate netsky hate him more because of the stereotypical "19 year old" (what was it, wolf?) fan than on any actual musical grounds. sounds like elitism tbf.

I like Netsky's music. This is the unpopular opinion thread. I respect your musical tastes. Live with it.

I mainly like the liquidy stuff, but there's a lot of other dnb out there that I like too, but I didn't get into "hardcore continuum" music until dubstep really, so I wasn't around for the ol' dnb days. I can only look back. Some of my favorites are:





I don't get what's to hate about the above netsky tune? It's got real nice sub bass, good drums, nice lil melody, decent vocals... whats wrong with it?

overly squeeky-clean production
use of the same break throughout the entire tune
bait vocal sample
the fact its boring

i refuse was cool the first time i heard it on dnb arena.

netskys tracks are just so cookie cutter, i remember hearing the album he put out and was just...bored. i really liked king of the stars the first time i heard it too, but it really lost its edge after a couple plays.

that's not something people usually criticize. this is a little ridiculous imo. upset because a song is too well-prodced? i mean c'mon. seems like you're grappling for a reason to hate on the guy just cuz you don't like his fans.
Nevalo wrote:use of the same break throughout the entire tune
I looooove that vocal break. He uses it in a lot of songs. Kinda his signature thing.

The ShockOne remix of "I Refuse" was pretty sick

ok, its fine that you like netsky. but lets be honest, its not the most inspiring music. its just very very very dull.

also, you said earlier you werent up in the nuum till recently and i think thats where the problem kind've lies... most people here have been listening to dnb since 2000 (and even earlier if you're an old fart), so this isnt new and it just sounds like a very watered down version of what dnb was.

:oops:

even intoxicants dont impede my hypercritical music judgement these days.... which i guess is a bad thing because i just grouch around like a tnuc if music is bad in clubs

That Memory Lane bit is nice enough but like the rest of this stuff it just feels a bit flat to me.

As for I Refuse, like Nev said, that sample...

those kind of samples were a major put off for me when dnb started to become slightly more mainstream over here...

it seems like it was trying to hit a cord with all the angsty teenagers who have loved and lost etc.... but it just sounds like wank imo

yeah true on the nuum issue but when it comes to my opinion, netsky is very inspiring and the furthest thing from dull. there's a lot more dull-ass dnb out there.

Those brostep producers who take a jab at Dnb and just incorporate growls and wubs, but of course the excuse they make is "Drumstep" (that word makes me cringe).
