Title: Dubstep so damn popular o.0
Post by: Matt Murdock on April 21, 2012, 07:15:50 am
So , Today I was browsing a torrent site (no piracy intended) I just often browse them to check against seeds to see whats hot these days. And found this :

(http://i42.tinypic.com/10fwfok.jpg)

Now I wonder, if anyone notice the difference in seeds between the first and second place, I bet you'll be dropping your jaw as well. For me, I have never even heard of the album which has about 48000 seeds , heck I have never seen a file with more than 4000 seeders it has 48000.

So the simple question is, What makes an ordinary dubstep album so popular that it leaves behind artists like even Rihanna, Eminem, Katy Perry and who not?!

Edit : Right while I was typing this, it has just crossed 49000 seeds. Da fuq'?

The new Game of Thrones episodes have the same amount of seeds when they come out.

And it's just a fad, really... the distorted heavy basslines seem to fit the Call of Duty montages 12 year olds like to make, that's it. It's kind of replacing the indie pop bands that are (or were) big these past years.

Dubstep actually dropped rapidly in both quality and popularity.

It's because of the younger generation. It's not that they necessarily like the music, they just jump on the band wagon because of others liking it, as like a lot things.

Well you can remove the picture of piratebay, we are not allowed to even talk about piracy here. Drop the picture about it and continue the discussion about dubstep.

I think the dubstep still lives, atleast Knife Party's music.

No, seriously.
It's a shitty music fad genre which sounds like actual music played through a broken set of bass speakers.
It'll pass like any other FOTM fad.

That's not dubstep.  :lol: Centerpiede has some similarities to dubstep, but Knife Party mostly produces some kind of Electrodub slash house slash dubstep sorta music.
Here you got dubstep:

Emre that's stupid

I personally find the genre awful as well. They all sound the same, like, some chill melody, then it builds up, increase the beat to super fast levels, then WUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUBWUBWUBWUB

The genre's roots are great, though. I love Burial.

Of course, there's that dickey kind of Dubstep, which I don't like either. But I don't rant and / or criticise about it like a twit while listening to alternative music only.

Like hardstyle, which is a collection of noise and 'Donk', See blackout crew who seemed to make the (fad)genre more known/popular even though it had been around longer than they had.

Hardstyle is so 2006, though.

My opinion on Dubstep: It sucks ass.
Hardstyle is cool, thou I've moved onto rap/hip hop, my brain can only take so long :D

Messing up dubstep with other music gender can come out really really bad.
But again it can come out really good

Dubstep is bad because even if you like the awful noise that it produces, there's only so much that you can actually make with it.

I like a few dubstep songs, I like classic songs, I like rock, I like pop, I like rap and I like things that sound good to my ears. Just because people say 'dubstep sucks' doesn't mean you have to jump in their group and start hating. There is good in bad and bad in good. Hate all you want, but I listen to anything that I like. What's good to me, I listen. In the past generations, there were good music and bad music.

My point is, we have different taste in music. Judging by the genre is just plain dumb, it's like judging someone from the place they live. Anyways, that's just my opinion. Listen to what you think is good, people have different opinions on everything.

Why is it I am not surprised when I understood the words "music" and "fad" (meaning from recent; today's era) would make shit music?

Seriously people, some of us don't hate on today's music and patronize music from the previous decade / generations for no reason. It's just that the overall quality of the artists has gotten worse, I do not remember people in the 90's complaining about how their music was utter shit compared to the 80's and 70's. :lol:
