yeah dubstep just feels really bland and generic to me, I can't take it seriously

@vantablack what does 'dubstep' mean to you? like who are the people you picture or the scenes and places it makes you think of?

@regresssion just... generic dubstep. like any video when you search "dubstep" on youtube. random Dubstep Remixes of popular songs.

every song has like the same drop, same drumbeat, similar sounds. and its so trendy, in every commercial, and that + the general genericness of the sound + every band copying it makes it give off corporate bland vibes

and tbh yeah makes me think of lame boring white guys, gamerbros, etc. with no vocabulary who consume music solely through the youtube app on their smartphone

@vantablack gimme a moment, i genuinely need to reacquaint myself

@regresssion sure thing! :)

@vantablack heh - so like, i totally recognise for most people that's just what it is. that's their cultural exposure.

i'm a londoner and just about caught the wave of dubstep that took over london's night life, and it's still what i go back to in my head. and i feel like i have a duty to the music, more than anything, to "fix" that for people?
