DUBSTEP *wobb wobb, wobb wobb wobbb*

Not a big fan of Dubstep, can stand like Katy B and some Skream songs but nothing too heavy.

I find it very interesting that you say that since to me it seems that a lot of what passes for dubstep now doesn't really get the point of what dubstep actually is. It's one of the reasons I found myself less interested in it. There's all these ridiculous basslines and no shuffle or step to the beat. It's more like dubstomp now IMO!

'Luke Envoy - Honour Kill' and 'Juju - Punks' are my two favourite tunes of all time. Gully but not ridiculously heavy - although I can imagine that true dubstep purists would say that they are too new and 'not real' themselves. It was always a funny old genre!

It is my honest opinion that Skream hasn't really made many tunes that great since 'Calous' either BUT I am fully aware that is just my own opinion.

I liked dubstep when it was kinda grimey still and sounded just like a dark, grey London council estate on a rainy night. Now it just sounds like clowns stamping around in slow motion :cry:

It used to be easy before all this stomp business came in. I've seen all the ketted up Indie kids just moshing to it now...

Imagine it is still four to the floor but you have to fill in the extra snare yourself. It's actually faster than house music by about 10 beats per minute. Do a little 2-step shuffle. That'll work! :wink:

Did anyone use to go to The End in West Central Street, not sure if it is still open?

Incedible sound system.

The End reopened as The Den. It was pretty terrible when I went. I loved The End - alas.

Also, in response to your last post on what I typed...

It can literally mean whatever you want it to mean :wink: :stripper: :lol:

I've never heard dubstep until now, was always curious about what it was. After listening to that, I can safely say it is the worst music I've ever heard.

How about some CCR instead?

What is all this 'wobb' business?? Does it mean something 'on da street, blud?'.

We don't get many people saying 'wobb' in Club Level. ;)
