Dubstep sucks

Seriously that's all there is too it. It's a fad/gimmick, the whole novel part of it is that it all sounds the same. Which means that it can be considered a genre, usually thats hard to do in this day and age, so it gets a lot of attention.

The music industry is a joke, it's very cyclical, the only thing that ever really changes is the production techniques. It's all the same shit over and over again, even chord tones for most songs were around long before we were born.

I got a good friend who makes electronic music, and man he can pretty much locate any song around and show you an older version of basically the same shit.

Seriously

High Bpm, 2 beat, deep wobble bass music. Most of it use samples, ans/or remixes. Look up Skrillex.
You can thank the UK for it. $:-\$

Well, actually I am (sophisticated), to be honest - I'm probably amongst the top of the most sophisticated people you could ever meet lol.. But all I tried to say was just that you can like some genre, and some not, but if one doesn't like, it doesn't mean it's "crap" automatically.. Some ppl are very narrowminded..and some become "outdated" way too early.. Idk, maybe some ppl think that they doesn't need to learn constantly after they graduate or some shit (like - "Oh, now I'm officially "knowledgeable" so I can /settle down/, when it comes to general education.."). Anyway, for each his own I guess..

yeah.. Very constructive position. Do you always want to flush someones head down the toilet when you can't oppose in a constructive way?
And how does it feel to be a narrowminded meathead?

On the other hand - I'm 6'1 235lb@8%, I can give you my exact location you fukkin clown.

You'd be surprised my friend, lol...
To be more specific - it's not about "dubstep" specifically, it's about being progressive as in a mindstate. You know.. being "on the cutting edge", not letting ineself slide into the "oldschool" guys who start using word "They"... That's what I meant. And I've got an impression that many guys here are kind of "outdated", even tho' many are just barely over 30 (which is very very young imho, and people should be learning and learning as much as possible of various stuff at that age).

I'm not your "friend".

dubstep brings out the hostility in this thread...

Not my cup o' tea, but I'm not gonna hate on it for change.

I'd sooner listen to something like this than what's been posted.

I believe your brain is "outdated" and should be turned off.

As far as todays electronic music is concerned, Maceo Plex is where its at for the sweet and sexy deep house type stuff. You can fuck chicks to his beats all day and night. If you can't see the sexyness in this, you are dead. Fuck all that retarded dubstep, spastic bullshit.

crank it.

lmao, some random dude on the internet that goes by the name da_vinci(oh brother) claims to be one of the most sophisticated people to walk this earth. People never cease to amaze... especially on the internet.

I see you are quite bothered by that, I wonder - why? And my nickname is related to my real name (aside the fact that Da Vinci appeals to me as a person who had very wide field of ineterests and excelled in most of them. A painter, an inventor, a writer, a scientist, etc..).
To put more fuel to the fire: I have a memory you could just dream of, so that enables me to learn and remember, and then learn some more (I believe in a never ending education thourgh a lifetime, to keep oneself as fresh, mind wise, as possible. Education of a wide range of fields, as that adds to the flexibility and creativeness, doesn't matter what's your main field/profession/work, too). Hope this helps.

We've all seen people boast about themselves like you do.. VERY few back it up in any way or form. How do you even measure sophistication? lmao

But whatever you say, da_vinci

. Keep stroking that ego. Always remember that you're special.
