Do you like DUBSTEP?

cause i want to know;

got bored of the whole dubstep thing pretty quickly. only a few releases...

imo genre is irrelevent, a real talent can make something decent from any basic formula

yes i like grime?

no

no. the only dubstep i've ever liked was in the beardyman show posted here the other day.

i like burial. and grime is fine too.

but i don't really understand whay dubstep is

Does the poll include both Burial and Datsik in the "dubstep" genre?

What about Mount Kimbie? What about Boregore?

Absolutely - but 98% of the dubstep releases are horrible.

I like the deeper and more atmospheric stuff, not the wobble wankery known as "brostep" or "filthstep" that makes evryone go "omg so filthy". Most of that kinda dubstep is just some terribly produced garbage with some fuck who happened to set the filter to cutoff and jerk off the LFO rate, and in many cases doesnt understand where the "dub" in dubstep comes from *cough*Borgore*cough*... There is some really great stuff out there though, and a few labels that consistently put out good stuff. Hyperdub, Hemlock, and most of Planet Mu's releases come to mind, and some other various small labels. You just have to dig through a lot of the shit, as you do with any new genre that grows popular very fast. The scene has become oversaturated with new artists trying to cop in on the popularity.

It's easy to make bad dubstep, but making good well produced dubstep with atmosphere and a sense of restraint, does take talent

liked benga and boxcutter...overall no...sleazy excuse for drugs, grinding, and wannabe djs

Yes, yes I do.

Just Burial. Otherwise, ew.

Burial is barely dubstep.

But to answer the question: sometimes.

Not really, except Scorn.

Yes I love dubstep, brostep, drumstep, all the cheesy shit as well as the original stuff.

Fixt.

@topic NAY but few tracks i like actually.

I would think that IDM heads would eat up stuff like Point B, Boxcutter, Mt. Kimbie, Al Tourettes, Vex'd, & Coleco without even thinking twice.

You know I do....

I like Milanese a lot, and a few random tracks here and there. Sharee is pretty good... otherwise, haven't heard enough to hate the genre as a whole.

vex'd was the first dubstep I got into back in '05. in general I like dubstep tracks that have space and restraint, although the over-the-top agressive stuff has its place in the context of a set. I love n-types dubstep allstars mix cd because it's so diverse and includes some of that stuff without making you sick of it. I don't see how people listen to entire sets of the stuff.

Agreed, I only like Scorn. I guess wAgAwAgA if he's considered in this too, but I think his shit is too good to be dubstep.

I do enjoy various tracks form those artists, as well as Neil Landstrumm and Milanese (although I do wish Milanese would make some more techno, the release on Arcola was fucking banging). There are obviously plenty of good dubstep tracks, but like everything else it requires wading though the shit. I'm not quite as forgiving as ATOP...;) even though I love the pink bunny.

i havent found a dubstep song ive liked yet.

and ive looked hard

burial is okay
