brostep, yes. dubstep, no.
i'm objectively right, anyway you fucking rockist piece of shit.
Aiden Williams
I liked it back in 2010 but its hardly changed since then.
Luis Hughes
>brostep, yes. dubstep, no.

John Cooper
I think the sound design is really good on some tracks though. I feel as though I can feel the corporate, what I consider to be misguided, youth emanating from the sound so it bothers me however.
Tyler Ramirez
Eh some of its bearable I guess. Brostep is a steaming pile of shit tho
Hunter Lopez
Brostep is actually the best subgenre of EDM and is in one of it's most creative and prosperous phases right now. Not even memeing.
Dylan Rivera
Early 2000's dubstep no. But now it's atrocious. Amazes me how the genre was destroyed by one guy (Skrillex)
Before it was relaxing moody repetitive, but now it's full autism.
Jaxson Collins
>most creative
entire genre literally defined by modulating an LFO rate

What's brostep?
Jordan Rivera
oh hell yeah, rusko is the shit
Carson Edwards
some of its good, in like the same way some linkin park songs or limp bizkit songs are good.
wait i was talking about brostep. i dont even know what dubstep is man.
Robert Campbell
no. the british pre-2010 dubstep some purist nerds are going to push as "good" though, is fucking terrible without fail
Carter Perry
*though
jeez
Colton Foster
dumb
the people who were making the good early 2000s dubstep still make good dubstep now mostly
Adam Green
dubstep is an offshoot of uk garage where you fuck around with low frequencies. it gets its name from 2 step garage and dub reggae. here is a good dubstep track:
Landon Barnes
If you have ANY idea about synthesis, particularly bass-lines. Listen to snails and tell me that shit is not some creative bass design for brostep. One of the only true artists I believe who makes 'vomitstep'.

Joshua Martinez
Thanks user, but that guy obviously doesn't even listen or care about this music so I doubt he'll really be affected.
Also, Herobust. Holy fuck talk about sound design and just straight up high production value.
Evan Wood
>Also, Herobust
I will give him a suss, cheers dude.
Jaxon Ramirez
Most edm like it is just boring
Justin Cox
>Before it was boring as sin, but now it's got some actual entertainment value
Lucas King
>vomitstep

That track was annoying. Yeah the sound design is ok but I wouldn't say its revolutionary by any means.
youtube.com
This is the track that changed dubstep
Brayden Harris
Botnek also uses that crazy sound, not really dubstep but still good
Cameron Walker
this is horrible.
Xavier Anderson
Damn dude that song still goes hard, was listening to skism talk about dubstep and it's timeline, talked about that shit and wow. Fucking sure as hell revolutionized dubstep, most songs still use that pattern
Thomas Wright
It didn't revolutionize shit. Even Benga and Skream played similar stuff early '00. Not in '09.
William Sanchez
Link to similar skream/benga track pls. All I'm saying is that goblin still gets a rewind eveytime.
Charles King
The fact you have to say you're not memeing tells me you're memeing, kid. Brostep is terrible. Bottom of the barrel tier shit.
Nicholas Jones
Not him but and don't know when this was created.
youtube.com
Skream and Benga are the ones who created this sound.
Dominic Ramirez
Sorry man but that sounds nothing alike. I'm not shitting on skream, hes a legend, but his sounds were just different.
Isaiah Morgan
And then it made Benga become a bipolar schizo and Skream pretended to be a house DJ
John Clark
It's not bad, music taste has just moved on.
It's no longer cool in 2016 so people will claim it was never cool and they hated it all along.
Christopher James
Yeah especially with trap (edm) gaining more momentum. I just hope this pushes Dubstep artists to work hard and push out better tracks.
Luis Miller
Botnek and Snails actually have a few tracks together. They're a really cool duo.
Jeremiah Barnes
The fact that you called me kid tells me you're probably 19 years old and like to act condescending on a mongolian basket weaving forum.
Joshua Gray
Trap has already gained momentum and is the big thing in edm. Dubstep (brostep) artists have been working very hard to push out better tracks.
It's been happening for about a year or two now.
Hunter Thomas
True that i didn't enjoy last year as much as I did this year that's for sure, especially with tracks like this
Daniel Flores
Further, brostep is hindered by strict parameters. Heavy, industrial-esqe modulated bass... flops, huge snare, 15 synths that are placed in the stereo image like rays of goddamn sunlight, and those WHOOP! WHOOP!! WEW WEW wew POOOOWWWWWW AIEYAIYAIYAIE!!!! noises... No room to breathe.
You can create so, so much more with the basic template of dubstep. Get some samples, get a smooth ass bass line just as you would if you were writing pretty much any other genre, and express with some drum machines, even live instruments, and even turntablism.
That being said, songs like T1 by Torqx or Dinosaurs by 16 Bit should not be labeled brostep. Although that ray-of-sunlight synth refrence, that happens in alot of "dubstep" and it's arena trash. Subjectively, of course, but overall brostep is to dubstep what Lil Yachty is to Mac Dre.
Luke Thomas
ok too harsh
lil yachty might actually be fucking retarded
at least brostep takes an IQ higher than 80 to comprehend
Jacob Russell
kek
Nicholas Miller
nice bait dude, copied
Connor Williams
what the fuck is brostep?
Andrew Edwards
dupstep. chavs just didnt like how the sound has changed
John Walker
I think some of it has interesting stuff to offer, production-wise. Alot of it is just the same, though.
