-2? Damn! I really was just kidding around. And I was serious, I do like Mirrors; Bisco's a good band (not to threadjack)

Back on topic, it ain't my taste; but that's the best part about music, there's something for everybody (including Bisco for me). Glad you found you enjoy him :)

Does he have a name for it yet? Because it sure ain't dubstep.

No he didn't It's called dubstep or in his case brostep. And its dubstep has been around in England since the Late 90s early 00s. I seriously don't think that there is anything special about what he does. Push a button. make a sound. congrats you're the next big dubstepper. Have fun with that.

Technically just about everything we call "dubstep", is actually "drum and bass" to the rest of the world. Actual dubstep is much different than bassnectar/pretty lights/skrillex.

Who -1'd @meetmeatdebar ?

That's a little pretentious and rude if you ask me. Everybody has a guilty pleasure. Who gives a f*** if he likes Skrillex a little bit? I don't like that kind of music but he's still a .netter and thus obviously like Phish too. Come on people don't hate.

Edit: Shit, I accidently hit the thumb down, I'm dumb. If I could take it back and give @meetmeatdebar + 2 I would.

Sorry man, but I appreciate voicing your opinion. Whoever -1'd you can suck it.

sounds about right.

I do know that when skrillex "plays" a show he's not doing anything but hitting a play button. All the knob turning and button mashing is for show. I.E. not live at all.

IF young'uns get introduced to electronic music because of Skrillex, fine by me. I would just hope that some decent electronic music can rise to the surface here in 'Merica. Rolling Stone did the EDM issue about this genre's 'explosion' a few months ago and either the Philly area is backwoods to the scene or else their reporting on EDM's newfound prominence was off target. There are many decent electronic artists/producers/DJ's out there.

Skrillex isn't one of them.

johnnyd "But @sirhotpants, how would I ever know any of these decent electronic artists of whom you speak?"
"Funny you should ask, @johnnyd! Why I recall a thread from less than a year ago that discussed various genres of electronic music and compared 2 totally different lists of so-called Top 100 DJs!"
"You don't say, @sirhotpants! I remember that too! Let me try this handy 'search feature' and see if I can locate it!"
"Well that'd be swell!"

Wow! Here it is!

And they all lived happily ever after, listening to crappy "music" made by hipster nerds that have no intelligence or talent, and just like to push buttons.

I not-so-vaguely remember this link, and believe me I was stoked to see RA's #6 Loco Dice and #3 Richie Hawtin at the same show last week. Good times.

johnnyd That is excellent. We really wanted to hit one of those shows, but couldn't make the schedule work. We are gonna see Marco Carola this weekend though. That should be solid.

-4 on the OP...?
Seriously, you 4 (or more) people are doing it wrong. That minus is not to express a difference of opinion.
@Colonel_DanTeca has the right idea.
Why are you all so butthurt that music exists that you don't like? Are you all like the whiny kid going "wub wub wub" on that youtube video? Get a grip. Seriously.
