The Dubstep Thread!

[InCasinoOut]

I know this is really dorky for posting a MIDI file of a tab I did, but I've been experimenting with some dubstep-influenced groove metal in Drop G. Once I get my POD X3 Live, I really want to start a recording project of, ahem, djentstep.

If you do check this out, listen to it with headphones or through speakers with a sub at least! There's a lot of sub-bass and some bass drops.

edit: also, this was tabbed with the standard Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth as my MIDI output device, so it might not sound as good if you're using something else...

Haha, that's actually pretty cool. I had a similar idea. Dunno if it'd be good with vocals or not. Maybe samples?

check out natas and then check out esham.

Seconded on the remixes. Tek-One is probably my favorite dubstep producer. He did a track or two on Bring Me The Horizon's Suicide Season Cut Up, and made an initially heavy as fuck song heavier, I think:

Check out culprate he's fucking brilliant!

I just discovered a few new favorites after acquiring an awesome dubstep compilation.


This song isn't as aggressive as the other stuff I've posted, but holy FUCK it's dark and heavy. Apparently the guy who produced it is from the Polish brutal death metal scene, although I don't have much information beyond that. Definitely sounds metal as fuck though!


This one is really awesome too since the mood changes a lot. Goes from some pretty dreamy double time sections to really heavy dark stuff. Lots of great drops too. The first drop is at 1:50, but my favorites are at 3:25 (awesome melody), and 4:34, which is just fucking filthy.


well, I just love this one.

Mick Harris's project, 'Scorn' went into the realm of dubstep way before it went mainstream.

Yay, I found me a new genre
Thanks everyone for sharing

Dude, this is like so cool!!!
I can see the birth of a new gerne here

lol Dubcore

 

[Mr Violence]

I don't know much about this genre yet, but I've been rocking this song pretty hard. I think it's phenomenal:

Borgore is the drummer in a metal band
That explains a lot lol

Bang!

We have a winner. Everything else is whack MIDI controllers, plug ins, weakener and FASLE.

MJH knows bass and fishing.

Mt. eden is just about the worst dubstep in existence

Filthiest drop possible? Probably.

Mt. eden is just about the worst dubstep in existence

I think it's kinda hilarious how Mt Eden is being received here in NZ. I know the Mt Eden area very, very well (I often sit atop the mountain itself for peace and meditation, can see some lovely sunsets over the Waitakere ranges), and find it confusing how he's so successful. Here the Mt Eden Dubstep dude/band is being worshipped like some enigma by some, and promoters are totally raping his youtube success. I think a lot of local producers and dj's are getting pretty annoyed at how the dudes played so few shows so far and is already getting what I guess are considered 'headline' slots at gigs with not that much effort. The dude isn't the greatest producer by any means, but he has made some decent enough tunes. It's so...by the numbers though, and I can see why as many people hate it as much as however many love it... Anyway, good on them for what success they have gotten, the music could be far worse...

Anyway I think dubsteps more or less characterized as 140bpm, half time, bass heavy electronica. The 'wobbly' bass is pretty much the thing with it I guess. Frankly I enjoy select tunes, and even throw in a bit in some of my DJ sets, but I'm sick of the fad it's become...frankly Mt Eden isn't helping, if anything it just epitomises the fad..

I love myself some dubstep!

PeteyG from Red Seas Fire was trying some dubstep not too long ago and I think I'm giving it a shot too.

So, who else here tried making some? Link if possible!

I love dubstep. If I had some sampling or recording equipment I would definitely try it out.
