I am probably accidentally guilty of this…..although I dont know what dubstep is hahah. who has a link to some classic dubstep?

As for hip hop…..ive used that as well but it always seems weird putting it to Australian snow edits, gangster stuff is even more ridiculous in my mind.

dubstep is about 140ish bpm. based on reggae, kinda jungle, kinda dub, kinda garage - but using new school production. it came to light in about 2006 ish with wiley, benga, loefah and a few others, then more recently skream and a whole host of others. it’s spawned a whole bunch of sub genres and styles including people like Kito doing her electro/dubstep thing and Pendulums new outfit Knife Party and of course Skrillex who does .... umm…. not sure.

and gangster hip hop…. ugh woeful. if you need any aussie based instrumental hip hop then hit me up.


I mean I have heard the term and know its out there, but I just never bothered to find out what it is. thanks for the run down.

I might actually take you up on the hip hop offer!

What is with this woeful genre of music? over compressed, headache inducing mid range O.C.D. music. Let’s get back to old school hip hop and dinosaur jr. tunes.

**EDIT - that throwaway nauseating end of the dubstep genre

I salute you, sir, for your fine musical taste.  rocker

The TrackID app on my phone tells me that song is called Call your girlfriend (feed me remix) by Robyn and I think the album is also called Call your girlfriend.

I don’t often get to use that app but it is fun sometimes tongue rolleye

that snow is so damm good. Do you reckon they speed up the footage a tad? I’d put money on them having done it in that vid.

Did I, or did I not post both the name of the song and the name of the remix already?

Did or did not, Deano then post a post which came across as suggesting it was the original song….there by the answer was still in doubt. Hence I was confirming it. I forgot that your word was absolute. sorry.
