'Experimental' Dub...?
Posted: Wed May 28, 2008 3:51 pm
ok...so I know the word Intelligent is faux pas when dealing with electronic music...prolly even more so with Dub because pretty much all of it i've heard is very intelligent in the literal sense. However, I am looking for Intelligent Dub. And by this I mean very technical, often glitchy, makes use of polyrhythms...I've since been informed "Intelligent" in dub means straight beat or some shit...so this has been edited to talk about EXPERIMENTAL DUB, lol...
I've been into dub for a while now...but in the past few years there have been some really amazing glitchy Dub albums, like Boxcutter's new alias' release Balancing Lakes. I love a lot of Kode 9, u-ziq, The Bug, some Distance(some is too simplistic for my tastes), some Ninja Tune releases(funny to hear Dub from them now)...but when I start to search for similar stuff I get mostly what amounts to Grime, rather than Glitch. I could prolly name off 10 Dubstep artists that are great, but Im hoping you guys can help me expand my horizons without having to be frustrated by downloading endless amounts of Grime that I dont really get into.
If Squarepusher made Dubstep, what would it sound like?
Any advice? Many thanks in advance
