Dub step is pretty cool sometimes, usually when I'm really lit otherwise not so much haha

new dubstep is like 100times better

I use to like dubstep about five years ago but now it reminds me of the whole electronic music boom of the 90's, in that by the 2000 it had gotten really stale and commercial.

I don't know if I'm just getting old but brostep is one of the worst genres I've ever heard. It sounds like a gathering of douche bags farting in my face, while sampling bad hip hop songs.

Brostep = lame



Dubstep = chillin, Rastafari!

I never really cared for the longevity of dub step like Flux, to close to hardcore techno throwbacks. I have always loved filthy drops, minamilistic glitch and trip hop but other than remixes its hard to find that melodic story feel AND those drops that are so dope.

I don't know a whole lot of dubstep, new or old, but as Ascended put it, a creative artist can make a great song in any genre.

A personal favorite, Broken Note has consistently put out ruthless tunes, often quite experimental.

Is this for real? New dubstep (mostly brostep) got nothing to the good old days djs/new ones that produce similar "old dubstep" sound.

Got to bring up Skream, DMZ records (mala, coki - Digital Mystikz), Kromestar, Silkie, Swindle, loefah, benga, distance, d1, n-type...

I don't even consider "old" dubstep to be dubstep in the first place. To me it is Dub. Some call it Future Dub. And of course, artists such as Mala, Skream, Digital Mystikz, Loefah, Mungo's Hi-Fi ecc. are way better than Dubstep (or "brostep", as it is called by many people) artists. Although, Dubstep has some funny and actually enjoyable tunes thanks to Liquid Stranger.

I think you'd be surprised, as is true with any genre if you look long enough you'll find something interesting, there's a lot of really talented new producers that really put a lot into interesting sound design, the label Ad Noiseam especially has been consistently releasing some pretty unique albums (among the occasional duds of course). The old classic dub styles are great, but there's always room to explore, and the great thing about new electronic music is that new technologies and more elaborate software programs allow artists to push the limits of a genre further and further.

Ahhhh! I love the tracks you posted, Epoch :) You and I have similar taste, at least in this genre. I love love love Bane.
