Origins of Brostep

Post by zerbaman » Tue Mar 08, 2011 11:23 pm

Used the search option, didn't find a thread on this. My question is:

Where did the term 'Brostep' come from?
If possible, who invented this?
Do you say zerbaman? Or do you say zebraman?

Someone made one of those shit, dime-a-dozen threads about heavy, tearout dubstep and why so many people hate it and he happened to mention that he called it 'brostep' and it escalated from there......

I think possibly this is 'genesis' >> http://www.dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=108874

The funny thing is that it needn't have gone on any further than Joe Muggs' first post on the first page, let alone almost 2 years. C'est la vie.....

i thought it was a girl on this forum?
i remember her starting a thread where she teased one of her producer friends for his brostep music. Once it caught on, she started another thread lamenting the creation of the phrase. But it was already too late, for now she had become death, destroyer of worlds.
