I know what you mean. The best thing about UKG blowing up was all the fuckwits at D&B nights migrated over to the garage scene.nickwoj wrote:that wiley album was a lot better than i thought it was gonna be.
i gotta say, i've really lost interest in current dubstep. there's definitely still good shit coming out but i feel like it's lost a lot of it's allure/vibe. ESPECIALLY after seeing the kind of people who latched onto it in the states. sorry, i don't wanna see kids with stretched ears moshing at dub wars or whatever. they just don't get it at all. it's the same shit that happened to dnb. the cool urban side of it was wiped out by the dumb-ass male rage, out-of-control-bassline crowd.
i understand what you're saying and agree that a mostly corny group have latched on to dubstep in north america.. but in the end what does it really matter? i listen to music because of the music.nickwoj wrote:i gotta say, i've really lost interest in current dubstep. there's definitely still good shit coming out but i feel like it's lost a lot of it's allure/vibe.

im with you on the music thing but the sort of people that are going to be at a club night I might want to go to will be a deciding factor in wether I actually go or not.ackbar wrote: i listen to music because of the music.
the "coolness" of a "scene" is something that grown men shouldn't really be worrying about. if anything..
i was gonna say something about burberry but didnt want to end up on a massive rant about chavs which wouldnt have made much sense to most people!nickwoj wrote:
i wholeheartedly agree with this (how could you not?) but this is a very environmentally based music. when i think of dubstep i think of london, croydon, etc. i think of garage cats with stone island jackets and burberry hats. i think of pirate radio, el-b, tape packs, etc. all of that influence going into it. not some douche who was a crunk/mashup/baltimoreclub ipod dj a couple months ago.
The significant question remains, if I hate*** dubstep so much why do I go and see/listen to so much of it? Patiently waiting for the Joker set at the Arches last Friday it clicked: if I was twenty this is what Iגd be into. I.e. this is music for sexually underconfident white trainspotters who want to be cleverer than everyone else and affect a certain cool, marginal, edgy disdain but would never go anywhere there might be a fight. Or any women to talk to. A place where they can get pissed on Stella and sit on the floor in a circle.
I don't go to many dubstep nights but was walking past FWD on sunday with barknee [ wouldve popped into see marcus nasty but think we were too late ] and i saw the fittest girl ive ever seen in my life. like write into the metro fit.ackbar wrote:"the dumb-ass male rage, out-of-control-bassline crowd" i can safely co-sign as hating tho. i was talking to my homie the other night and he was saying how the whole electro/blog house (and a lot of dubstep) is all dudes on other dudes jocks. most of the people who post in this thread don't really listen to many of the artists who fall into this category tho
