I really prefer decent music to be heard by people with actual music tastes.

Thoughts?
I think I don't care at all about what's played in common record stores and on the Top 40. None of that can ruin music that is good.

Close-minded insults don't make for good conversation. Good dubstep is good. Great dubstep is even better. If you're interested in Art and Music then you know that 'originality' ultimately means little and that honest music fans give no shit about trends.

Wait until it drops around 2.20.
Excellent example. I'll always love Boxcutter's Glyphic album (2007) no matter what any other musician does. It'll never be lame.
