modey Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 maybe skrillex has an account in here, how long before he makes a righteous appearance? Isn't he 'sonny' on here? Or was that just a joke? I actually don't understand why everyone here has such profound hate for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QBLA Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I don't hate the dude, but I have kicked out a friend recently from my office and made him wait down stairs when he brought up skrillex and deadmau5 in the same sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murve33 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Why is it that when a genre crosses over the pond to the states is simply distilled to its distinct characteristic and then it becomes the only characteristic that is then pushed forward. The wobble-bass was a part of dubstep but it had much more things, but since coming to the US it has become the only thing that carries a track and the people gobble it up. But the UK ruined Juke. Also. i love how protective britains are over their throw away watered down plundered jamaican music genres Yes you're not British. But I think it still applies. I'll take Skrillex over Deadmau5 any day. Then again, I've only listened to this, and I enjoy the bass warbly (can't stand that awful benassi part though). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaIZ0mUJzr0 With that said, I don't like his music, and I recognize that dubstep has been around forever (why it's entering the pop scene NOW is beyond me). I also can't stand him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkzBqKTideM&feature=player_embedded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuatxuk Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 .I'll take Skrillex over Deadmau5 any day. Then again, I've only listened to this, and I enjoy the bass warbly (can't stand that awful benassi part though). Skrillex is arguably more "interesting" and energetic at least. Some of these currently hyped producers seem to be incorporating MIDI in their performance too (Pretty Lights). But at the same time, I don't find it very superficial compared to traditional DJ mixing and rave music of the past, or the music of the beat scene or "future bass" producers back in Europe. Hell, I even find Girl Talk performances far more sincere and fun to dance to. This whole increasingly ridiculous wobble drop circle jerk marathon nonsense has to get old at some point, even if you are a hyperactive, superficial, intoxicated teen or young twentysomething. You can't brostep day after day without getting burned out at some point. I don't hate the dude, but I have kicked out a friend recently from my office and made him wait down stairs when he brought up skrillex and deadmau5 in the same sentence. Nice. I've just managed to ignore it. I find the appeal of these producers a bit intriguing, I have a friend whose cousin has literally considering get the same haircut as skrillex (a skrillet? skrillhawk? skrillrows?) and literally went to every showcase and free show he threw during sxsw. She's nice enough and listens to what most people would consider decent indie music beyond EDM, which makes it more of a head-scratcher. It's not even the appropriation of the term "dubstep" that bugs me, it's the fact that after all of the decades of various, diverse dance music genres and scenes, brostep is what ushered in the recent mainstream interest in electronic music. But then again, electrohouse seemed to fizzle out. There was Big Beat just over ten years ago and the sprinkling of House in pop hits back in the early 90s. This could just all be a fad to look back on next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vamos scorcho Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 i find it really interesting how much this guy has been getting talked about. it's not like lady gaga where it's obviously corporate, nor is it like james blake where it's blog hype. it's just kind of fun.

ganus Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Is Skrillex the most hated man in dubstep? tl:dr = you're a pretentious "griping keyboard warrior"/"metropolitan hipster" if you don't like Skrillex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud capture Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 not really a fan of the happy-hardcore brostep sound, but I did see an interview with him where he talked about growing up listening to warp/rephlex and named aphex, squarepusher, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
