anything from london/bristol made from 2004-2009. disregard everything after. anything from america can be unilaterally ignored.Ty wrote:
Gaga's stuff is well produced and she's a talented performer. Doesn't appeal to me personally though I can understand why it does to others. Also it seems a little less plastic and forced than other pop music phenomena so I can support that.
As to dubstep... look it seems to me to be a lot of people with audio mixing software who are allowed to go nuts playing with effects and experimenting. That's cool but personally I don't think it reflects a musical breakthrough. To be honest I don't know much about dubstep, I like some dub and DnB but can't say I've ever heard a dubstep track that I actually enjoyed. Can anyone who knows more about the genre give me an example of a "must hear" dubstep track?
No. You're thinking of Y34RZ3R0R3MIX3D.Hurricane2k9 wrote:

dubstep WAS a musical breakthrough, i'm sorry, but this is just widely acknowledged fact. to those involved and to those interested in the cultural/academic side of dance music, dubstep very much was a 'next step' in a long chain. it was a very specific 'time and place' thing but now everyone originally involved has moved on. all that dubstep is now is a parody/caricature indulged in by american mainstream producers to make $$$. the original (small) group of people involved with the sound have mostly moved on. and they'll mostly refuse to talk about the genre in interviews, it has just been so hijacked.
this is one of my favourite early dubstep tunes... 2004. here you can see the bridge being made between breaks/dnb and the new emerging dubstep. this was merged with the uk-scene's very strong garage/grime scenes in london to form dubstep 'proper', which appeared in south london in a very small niche circle about 2-3 years later.
