Top Ten Reasons Dubstep Is the Worst Genre of Music
So what if it's not being played with an instrument? There are many excellent and legendary pieces of music which have been recorded without traditional instruments. It's not detracting from what music is defined by, it's simply developing our technologies. The fact is, it's still music, and for one thing, it better qualifies as music than the autotune junkies that dominate the pop and rap industry.
Seriously, dubstep "artists" play their computers, it is not an insturment! Guitar, Piano, Base, Cello, Clarinet, Flute, Drums, just to name a few, are insturments, and speaking from experience, they are harder than pushing buttons!
So? Combining synths and making good progression can make up for the difficulty of playing actual instruments. Electronic music also takes talent, and also Dubstep!
Pop stars are all computers and electronics, auto tune makes them sound better, rock n roller for life in
Damn, I guess this means I shouldn't listen to Jefferson Airplane or the Strawberry Alarm Clock anymore. :(
Rock bands and jazz crooners also have bizarre names, but is that good reason to attack the genre?
Other artists from Pop to country have weird names too
Don't see what this has to do with the music, but it's true.
That is pretty much how dubstep was made. That is how indie was made, but at least they PLAY ACTUAL MUSIC!
That's what most Hip Hop and Rap do
Honestly, I'd like to see you try to make anything on the level of Electus, Gemini and Fractal. If you actually just mash lots of noises together like you think you're doing it, I'm sure it'll sound nothing like it. Commercial dubstep may be bad, but a lot of undergrounded dubstep is mellifluous and often meaningful. Dubstep is not just messing with computers, it's a pioneering art form. So stop posting ounces of nonsense about something you know too little about.
Anyone with internet access can press some buttons and make a series of sounds.
It isn't just pushing buttons,it also takes the right fingering,because of the diffrent pitches and tunes made,
How to play a dubstep music live:
1. Have a bunch of kids on drugs stand in a crowd
2. Press a single button on a new-looking laptop that plays the song
3. Do some lame dancing and tell the crowd to get "pumped"
4. Oh don't forget the ugly seizure lights!
Yes, because Skrillex is a lazy dweeb that doesn't put effort into his music, yet Nicki Minaj is a lyrical genius.
It isn't hard to record a sound, record another sound, and play the two sounds together.
Well didn't walking take no effort,no,but it is still important,and sleeping also takes no effort,but it's Leo still important
Is it? If it was just bleeps and bloops, and not ordered into a progressing rhythm with a mix of dark and subtle sounds, it wouldn't have been classed as a genre of music, now, would it? Admittedly, some of it does not pick up on these rhythms, but in the bigger picture, it's a fluctuative variation of bass, whether heavy, chilled or progressive. Its subgenres have often been mixed with and influenced by elements of similar genres such as trance, or highly different genres such as classical. It just goes to show that dubstep musicians are, in fact, highly intuitive and diverse, and that's why it can't be generalised.
It's just a production technique. The repetition criticism in relation to one track is not as condemnable as it's ubiquity among many, many tracks and artists. Only because it has been reproduced ad nauseum that it has it somehow managed to get itself labeled as "genre". I mean, hell, there's more sonic variation in tecno brega. Eat that PositronTonyHawk, CaptainProton, whatever you call yourself. How can anyone listen to same trick on 30 "songs" in one day? ugh
Well, I could make the same arguments for your ever-hated rap, Pos.
But it takes the right fingering,pitch,tune.and note,etc
Ugh no one sees you just stay in your pajamas
Other artist have weird costumes too
Van Halen wears better clothing.
They do the same thing again and again except maybe "ding" insead of "dong"
Well Hip Hop is repetitive. Same as heavy metal and rock.
Only a few metal genres are good.Dubstep is better.Yes I have a different opinion,deal with it.-TheCoolGuy1
