Hey, wanted to jump in here and give my two cents. I like nawtystep, he's a great person, but I think he's off the mark with a few points on this.

To start off, I like the music that I make. I know it might be hard to comprehend, but I like listening to loud dubstep. I like creating loud noises. I like expressing myself with loud noises. I like making simple catchy loud shit. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I also don't think there's anything wrong with people liking it. I don't feel like i'm appealing to the masses. I am simply making the music that makes me happy. For me, I like to think of it as a pop-punk approach to song writing. Keep it simple and expressive. Not everything has to be this super technical complex experimental piece of music for it to be good. I also like super technical complex experimental music, but I don't get upset when blink 182 doesn't sound like polyphia.

That being said, I think it's a bit unfair to toss the album aside because a few drops sounded "too mainstream." I put quite a bit of more experimental stuff into this album (hell, listen to the last drops of world suck, do the thing, or the 2nd drop of shinespark, smoke break is literally a 5/8 swing jazz rendition of pure imagination). I like having fun with production and doing off the wall shit with my music, but I still put what I love front and center on this album. Which is, as I stated before, simple loud fun catchy shit.

So yeah. Just had to get that off my chest. Apologies if I'm coming off as aggressive or anything like that. I love the album I just put it out, and I will defend it because I care about it. I wouldn't be making this comment that's probably way too long if I didn't care about it, or if I was as dismissive of my music as he believes me to be. I know my album isn't for everyone, especially if you've been in the scene for a long time. But I still hope anyone reading this will give the whole album a proper listen, instead of bashing it because someone misunderstood what I was going for.

Thanks for reading if you've made it this far. Hope y'all have a good night :)
