    1. @mushi If you have a Bass in your hand, a kind of fish, and it slips out of your hands you dropped the bass.

    3. @mushi Listen to this. The moment where the song goes from "bad" to "horrible" is called the drop. Thus "dropping the bass". http://youtu.be/R5UDF32L4aw

      1. @minti Also known as "The moment Minti finds another song to listen to".

        1. @mushi It's the part when you closed the tab very quickly.

    5. @greydragon412 I'd hate to see how you react to ACTUALLY painful music.

      1. @redenchilada As a Noise fanboy, I find many Dubstep songs to be more painful on my ears than Merzbow at times. Badly made Dubstep, especially when acquired in higher quality formats, can be quite painful.

        1. @omni The only time music is painful is when the music is painfully horrible and you die from how bananas the song is.

        2. @omni Yeah but that's BAD dubstep. There IS such a thing as GOOD dubstep.

          1. @redenchilada But, like most popular genres, the bad is much easier to find than the good.

            Monday, 27-Aug-12 21:21:25 UTC from web
            1. @omni Which still doesn't make the genre inherently bad, which I think is the point @redenchilada's trying to make.

              1. @bitshift I'm not saying Dubstep is inherently bad, I even have some of it in my collection. I do agree with @greydragon412 that "dropping the base" produces a simply painful noise in many songs, due to the artists not knowing what they're doing. Also, I miss the old kind of Dubstep: http://youtu.be/ZRx9YcUQkcA

                1. @omni Pretty much. Even as someone who actually quite likes a number of dubstep songs, there is definitely an overabundance of a) producers who don't actually know what they're doing, and b) to use the term that appears to have been coined for stuff like Skrillex, "brostep".

                  1. @bitshift Brostep? Oh god. It's like how Rammstein went like "Industrial Metal? Pfff... Neue Deutsche Harte sounds much better, that's how we'll call ourselves now". And the Metal scene lost nothing of value that day.

                2. @omni But again, that doesn't devalue the _good_ tracks, or any of the techniques used in them, in the same way a bad painter doesn't make oil paints a bad thing by misusing them.

                  1. @bitshift True, true.

                    Monday, 27-Aug-12 21:27:37 UTC from web
            2. @omni This is a given in any form of art

    7. @greydragon412 A comparison I'm happy to make in regards to metal
