ben sims playing dubs y'all!!!!
gj
its hardly risky... when its probly one of the most popular styles of music in his home city! it seems to be quite fashionable now to make dub stuff!
me included :D
nice chart tho
dubsteppy wagon lolz
agreed, I love my Dub Step but I dont think I would mix it myself. The way I look at things like this is that Ben Sims will bring Dubstep to a different level. boo yah bring it on!Quote:

anywho i kinda find it funny, that alot of producers are going the dubstep route, and have never really showed flavours of it before, to my knowledge anyway. its kinda like "oh is this the new thing? right so.... wheres those raggae samples i have?"
Yep, wagon jumping is happening, nowt wrong with dubstep though, been playing it live for a couple a years myself.
not at all. im a confessed wagon jumper myself :)
its not really a conscious act of wagon-jumping really most times. not like the whole mnml parade. but i think in these transition times its important to put a new reflection on existing styles.
in fairness, altho i wasnt mad on the raggae samples, Gunjack's new 'Consume' did just that, with a whopper release of techstep (oh no, not another name). and to me thats important, take whats there, and what sounds good, chew it up and spit it out in a new form! this is how the new wave starts.
to echo the OP, its about taking risks... i just think there could be more risk taking everywhere!! if major risks are not taken, f*** all good will come about of all this crossover. what does surgeon have on his t-shirt again??
something about mediocrity? edit :: Constant Shallowness Leads To Evil.
i know the feelin usually i dont jump on the wagon, but some dubstep and some fidgit house have presauded me recently.
All Hail the mighty Jah Scoop.
Loved his Highwire releases. The basslines get crowds rockin, every time
what basslines? I remember those tunes just being guy maccaffer sub rumbleQuote:

surgeon been playing dubstep for years but have never heard a proper surgeon dub on wax....
anyway i have been making 140bpm half/double time dubs (and straight dub music, cumbia dubs etc) for years, people are finally paying attention because it is "in"
f4ck it who am i to complain????
i found i am just selling the music i have been making all along to a new ("DUBSTEP") public.
...and it is so nice to get some of my catalog on vinyl which is not pure 4x4 or off beat techno....
one more thing, alot of the "big" dub names are coming out of the ashes of drum and bass and have no real connection to dub or THE YARD
gwaaaaan

I dunno, we`ve had dubstep in london forever now, if anything it`s still dominated by drum and bass and garage/grime throwback sounds.
I love it to bits but there`s nothing new or innovative going on, I`ve not really heard anything particularly groundbreaking happen in dubstep since about 2 years ago, not that it matters, I love proper dubstep regardless of innovation or not, people are just discovering something now that has actually been around for a while now.
Slow on the uptake, it`s not cutting edge, although I`m sure something very new and fresh will crop up soon. Who knows what it will be.
At least good music is being shared with all, period.
Nah mean.
haven't really gotten into the "neo-dnb" dubstep stuff, but this sounds intriguing...Quote:

I don't understand the term jumping on the bandwagon. I mean, if you like music that just so happens to be the flavour of the moment and you like to play, why should you be called a bandwagon jumper?
I have loved it for a couple of years, never knew what it was until recently (my dubstep thread) and only every now and then play it- does it make me a bandwagon jumper?
ur right. if u like it u like and shudnt have to justify urself. and u shudnt be classed as one of them .Quote:

House is crap though. :lol:
Kidding, but yeah mate I agree right there.
really digging martyn..def does remind me of the jazzier side of detroit. thanks for the rec!Quote:

Check out Potty Mouth for fidget
whats fidget term for?
I see band wagon jumping as when someone see`s latest trend, abandons all they were doing before, and just follows the herd on the latest trend.
While I believe in diversity and embracing change, I think in some cases, when people do this, it seems to be a lack of passion and depth, where they skate in the wake of whatever trend is happening, rather than actively contribute or create.
someone help me with the term fidget u use in this topic ffs?
another stupid fckin name created for pigeon holing.Quote:
