Why the hell would you send us an endless discussion on
dubstep while we're having one right here?!

Oh it's a youtube. Sorry, forget what i said *hug*

Hedphukkerr!

I respect your opinion – and dubstep as a genre. I've come
over my resentment – because I did give it a go and found
liking in it, even danced some. Thanks for your audio clip!
However, I don't know if it contradicts my view of dubstep
softness. Most proper Malmoe raves kick harder than that.
(We're now into acid and hardcore.) I don't regard softness
as bad quality, I'm just trying to elaborate on dubstep
popularity. Most people grow soft, softer and softer.
Dubstep is rave for post-ravers.

Dubstep's however you take it. Just 'cos it's slower than
other forms of electronic music in tempo, does not
necessarily mean that it has to have any less aggression or
drive. Compare minimal house of Richie Hawtin to the dubstep
of Vex'd and tell me who is "softer"...

i like when people like boxcutter put tracks like bloscid on
their album. when people stick to that template like a
formula is when it gets boring. like 2562 incorporating
techno, well even almost house into his sound made a really
nice blend and that is why he got so noticed. not that
there won't be surges in purism, sure acid and electro, drum
n bass has had their purest eras, both in their beginnings
and in 'retro revivals', but the best stuff is always like
aphex and pusher where it isn't just any one template but a
masterful blend of styles.

the track 'mind games' off the new reso is a fantastic blend
of dubstep bass and skittering drill n' bass style drum
tracks. the outro sounds like it could be at home on any
number of 'idm' records.

Hedphukkerr!

Please list ten (or five or three) dubstep must-listens,
prefferably in album CD format.

most dubstep is coming out in ep/single form, so most of
these will be that:

reso - heavy arms ep
eskmo - hypercolor ep
untold - gonna work out fine ep
heyoka - gate code (okay, so it's mostly dub crunk, future
bass or whatever it's being called nowadays, but still
plenty of 140 bpm grooviness)
defrag - lament element (again, on the outskirts of real
dubstep, experimental soundscapes reminiscent of richard
devine torn up with subbass)

and bonus best track ever:
untold - stop what you're doing (james blake remix)

what does "dubstep is rave for post ravers"? mean

the vast majority of people buying dubstep records and going
to dubstep nights have never been to a rave in their life

People girls really don't like to dance,

I started making a dubstep track last night. This means the
genre is officially over.

Those bass murphs don't really do dubstep sounds well. They
are fantastic for ambient music tho.

I just found out they released vol7 of dubstep allstars, and
am very happy as a result. vol6 kind of sucked, but more
often than not that series is full of win.

i was trying to find a combination envelope/filter/wah that
was designed for bass. it looked like one i would try/buy,
since it was moog and had a lot of knobs & faders. maybe
just something more straightforward then.

that digital delay, however, i can personally recommend
since i've actually used it. you can get some cool pitch
warble fx by tweaking the knobs as you go. i hooked it up
to my rogue which sounded great, i just can't sequence it
cause i don't have anything cv/gate.

I might suggest the regular moog filter tho. The murf is a
sequenced filter that really only has presets for the filter
arrays.

Well, the midi murf allows you to sequence it, but the only
thing any of the murfs seem to do is make plinky sounds. It
sounds great, but thats not the point.
