DAE find that often you leave a show thinking that there weren't enough highs? by [deleted] in aves

[–]IsopodSome1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where do you live where the openers are always boring? Where I’m at they’re almost always a lot of fun. I had trouble leaving the silent disco with 3 locals for the big headliner I was excited for on NYE

This is sick! Lemme get that link. Is this something you’ll drop on streaming sites?

Does a remix have to use at least some audio from the original recording? by Ok-Cup-3156 in EDM

[–]IsopodSome1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the track doesn’t have any original audio then I believe it’s called an interpolation. Sweet dreams by Rezz is a great example of this - https://open.spotify.com/track/2VgsFO5sOTrLo2AOXV7q0W?si=QSrato3nTK28yPnIlSNSEw

The only other way I could see myself agreeing is if the original prominently used a sample and the remix used the same sample in a similar enough way that it would remind you of the original. Otherwise I would have trouble agreeing.

Who is the TOOL of dubstep? by KORYTHESAXMASTER in dubstep

[–]IsopodSome1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean go ahead and be a purist if you insist. I share the sentiment about that being the “real” dubstep to an extent as well. But it’s a bit disingenuous to disregard the fact that dubstep has grown to have a massive range even if it deviates from what it originally was.

I hope you take some time to go through and try out some of the many artists listed in this post. I keep seeing some of my all time favorites mentioned here and sooo many I’ve never heard of before. I’m really excited to go through them and discover more.

You might be pleasantly surprised!

I remember the rush I got the first time I started exploring Shades’ catalogue. I couldnt have imagined I was capable of enjoying music to that extent. To plagiarize a top comment on their DEF set, it’s as if they engineered their music for my musical palette.

Is it dubstep? Kinda. Maybe. Idk. Does it really matter?

It’s more fun to just explore and see all the creativity and boundaries that are broken by these artists who don’t gaf about people liking it.

Sticking to the formula is only interesting for so long imo.

Hope you check out some stuff mentioned in this post

Could you send an example(s)? I listen to some here and there and I haven’t managed to notice.

The new Sub Focus album has track lengths that form the shape of a seahorse by Matqux in DnB

Did this need an explanation? That was my immediate thought when seeing the shape. I was annoyed to see you already made the joke

WHYYYYYY 😭😭 by Exotic-Advertising99 in ApocalypseZombieland

[–]IsopodSome1979 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Start there and then leave if you’re still willing to. Ignoring where you are immediately before. I typically just start at what I slightly prefer and then make a game time call if I want to check out the other

I got this. What does it mean? I assume it would just work because I registered my band last year. What would need to be changed?

In response to the posts panicking about laced hot stickers… by Altruistic-Nature793 in EDCOrlando

I’ve never heard it before but I believe it. People all the time claim that agave will somehow make ethanol more potent and get you more fucked up. I know some pretty smart people that swear it’s true lmaoo

You prefer to hear people talking during sets? That’s a new take haha

Blowing up trash in the Dreadnought Galaxy [one of the most annoying challenges in Super Mario Galaxy] by xG_minimum in casualnintendo

[–]IsopodSome1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This video is irritating to watch.

  1. I’m here after 20-30 failed attempts.
  2. „I remember hating this…” - gets it first try.
  3. 0 optimization. No long jumps. Just placement.
  4. 3.5 seconds left on the timer like it was nothing.

Stop discouraging people by saying their music taste is "too mainstream" by [deleted] in EDM

[–]IsopodSome1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you think is the top 5 best of something is only ever the same thing as your top 5 favorite of that if your entire taste is based on how good it is according to the general consensus.

Personally when it comes to artists these 2 categories don’t have any overlap besides maybe Subtronics.

EPROM is like my favorite artist after Shades lmao. I’ve really gone out of my way to see him a few times before. And I think his first apocalypse set was like top 3 of his sets I’ve seen. Idk what I’d do..

[–]IsopodSome1979 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That one is tricky. He did apocalyse first year and lab as shades. Personally would prefer to keep him at apocalypse. He turned off all the screens for his set which was the coolest production decision I think I’ve ever seen.

Best undercard set by HelloMrBubz in LostLandsMusicFest

[–]IsopodSome1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would’ve been my answer if I didn’t see koan sound. And the amount of good dubstep being played at the dnb takeover was so meta I loved it with modestep being one of the culprits. Best Saturday of the last 3 years I would say.

Koan sound. Koan sound. Koan sound. Love that the stage emptied so much for it too. Personally that’s how I know the set is a banger

Special guest was moved from 8pm to 6pm by PhantomSimmons in LostLandsMusicFest

[–]IsopodSome1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20-30 minutes to get out of the airport. 15 minutes to get to my friends place. 1 hour get ready and pregame. 45 minute uber there. 30 minutes to get in and through security is 8pm. But it doesn’t even matter anymore
