SEXY DUBSTEP

moonship journey to baja, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 18:11 (twelve years ago) link

^^ I was trying to remember where I'd heard that Noisia original track and I realized it's in Wipeout HD! Um, works pretty well there.

"sexy dubstep"

actually in regard to the moombahton mention earlier i sort of wanted to know if it was just random talking or specifically in reference to the misogyny talk around moombahton's image as of late (and thus relating it to the bro-ness, otherwise i don't usually stick dubstep and moombahton in the same camp). but didn't. THEN I DID

I'm going to have to agree with Tim about the base Benga formula really making things drag out. I'm going to have to pull out the classic "It was great the first thousand times I heard it..." line. :(

i like moombahton and i don't like dubstep. i brought it up cuz moombahton has bro elements. i don't usually think of them together either. i mean there are plenty of moombahton remixes that would probably delight a room full of drunken bros. maybe the bros are already down with it anyway. i don't go outside.

is brostep the moment when America finally explicitly gets into "electronica"? that would be sort of hilarious to me.

you mean not counting electronic pop and hiphop?

crut, right, not counting electronic pop and hip hop. i'm talking about you know, far out soundzzz with no lyrics and 120 bpm

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 16 August 2011 20:15 (twelve years ago) link

i can't take too much at one time but i like how the gaslamp killer will toss bits into a set for effect, alongside old breaks & psych etc.

hardcore oatmeal (Jordan), Tuesday, 16 August 2011 20:16 (twelve years ago) link

honestly i think if this sound wasn't EVERYWHERE right now i'd be more amenable to this being the way dubstep finally pops itself out

king of torts (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Tuesday, 16 August 2011 20:17 (twelve years ago) link

i was always kinda hoping for a lenny dee/omar santana revolution in this country. alas, not to be. way better than friggin' atari teenage riot and still plenty noisy and metally and all that good stuff. i've spent many an hour watching lenny dee live sets in crummy looking hoodrat clubs around the globe. just not a strong enough network of bars/clubs/deejays to make it work/happen here.

scott seward, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 20:31 (twelve years ago) link

uh, watching on youtube that is.

scott seward, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 20:31 (twelve years ago) link

As someone who was pushing dubstep in 2006, all I can say is "I apologize".

I'm pretty sure this will never happen. audience needs a narrative ie, words

There was some sort-of-brostep played between events at uh... the UFC match I went to.

mh, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 21:42 (twelve years ago) link

damn them. granted, i should probably check out some, uh, "funky", but i never seem to want to.

You should! It's kinda like moombahton, except faster (good) and British (jury's out). Tbh, I pretty much got into it in the first place bc it had similar beats to reggaeton.

I think I am apologetically down with brastep btw:

Is this stuff really more popular here than Prodigy/Chem Bros/Fatboy et al were in the mid-late 90s? On its way, maybe, but Fat of the Land was a #1 album. While acknowledging that no one buys albums anymore, brostep doesn't seem quite on that level yet. It could get there tho.

I'm sorry, it's been a long time since I've laughed as hard at a song as I laughed at that "ginger cunt" song. Hilarious. And not in a "so bad it's good" way, just in a fcuking LOL pathetic way.

LOL, sorry, yes. Officially called Ginger Pubes. Like I'm not going to listen to something called that, automatically.

some dude at work who listened mostly to awful barf-rock like Nickelback and Seether and dopey novelty stuff like "I'm a Barbie Girl" blasted "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" one day. When I asked him about it, he just epcalled it 'dubstep.'

I had no idea that dubstep was going mainstream here, so I was a little impressed.

gay for president? wiki texas! (Drugs A. Money), Wednesday, 17 August 2011 13:55 (twelve years ago) link

my coworkers won't shut up about turntable and mention dubstep a lot. im the other day:

how goes? I'm trying to pin down the genre of an artist, he goes by "Burial" -- electronic artist from the UK, have you by chance heard of him?
Wiki says his genre is "ambient, dubstep, house" among other things, hard to pin down -- so was just curious.

i generally just keep quiet and act like i just listen to salsa.

fauxmarc, Wednesday, 17 August 2011 14:16 (twelve years ago) link

Urgent and key question in this debate, what sort of profile do PENDULUM have in the US? Because I think it is now the law that every teenage boy in the UK must immediately get massively into Pendulum the moment he turns 15. They're like the new Green Day.

Matt DC, Wednesday, 17 August 2011 14:36 (twelve years ago) link

Pendulum = obviously not brostep but an important marker the the development of testosterone dance.

Matt DC, Wednesday, 17 August 2011 14:38 (twelve years ago) link

i don't know if pendulum stick out or anything or just fade into the rest of that general WOMP WOMP d+b sect that's a precursor to all this

fauxmarc, Wednesday, 17 August 2011 14:45 (twelve years ago) link

for me i prefer pendulum than dubstep
