Yep. I'm challenging you guys to try and make some type of bluegrass dubstep. Remixes, originals, collaborations, whatever. I'm pretty sure this is impossible since these genres are the exact opposite of each other but I bet one of you guys can do it.

If you come up with anything post it here. Good luck haha. :cornlol:

not impossible, you just use acoustic drums and layered with others and use guitar samples like you would a reese...

Dude I hate to say it but it's a bit more complicated than that. Maybe you aren't that familiar with bluegrass but the composition style is wildly different from dubstep and just using bluegrass type sounds will not make it sound like bluegrass. If anything the inverse would probably work better(sticking dubstep sounds in a bluegrass song.

I can imagine this being done with a mellow and very deep track. It would actually sound pretty good. I would never try it though. That being said, it should not be to hard to do a relaxing dubstep song with heavy bluegrass influence. Of course I am talking about the slower stuff.

this may not be bluegrass or dubstep, but "Barren Lands - Sound Vandal & Simon Johns" is a happy medium. listen to it here http://download.dna-musik.com/index.php ... um=LIFT064

I was speaking in generalities
