[MattSound]

You might want to extend this to reasons #9 and #10 as well.

This is the biggest pile of shit that I've heard since that Roni Size attempt at a puck remix a few years ago.

Hey, crap will be made within all genres. Without crap, it's really hard to get a guage of what it true quality. The thing that gets me is that wherever this nonsense is taking place, it seems to be awfully fucking crowded.

.....damn sure didn't take place in Baltimore. Sorry Baltimore, but you certainly have it coming ;)

[Russell Christ]

uhhh

I agreed, I've heard maybe, too many rmxs of this toon. But that shit is playin so fast, you could call it breakcore.

otherwise, I heart the metalness

I also agree that there is a right and wrong way to do everything

but if you're just makin the comment that heavy shit in general is crap then poo in your mouth and make you chew it and taste it and swallow it

[proximity]

erm that's breakcore guy :yawn:

[empath]

That was fucking AWESOME.

Who/what was that?

[Verbal Radiation]

sounds like atari teenage riot

[phunkphreaker]

I liked that video....

IMO honestly DNB has always seemed like the evill little brother of EDM much like death metal is to rock and roll.

Plus Slayer's "Reign in Blood" is a classic.

If that was to hardcore, maybe trance is more your style. :shrug:



I keed. I keed.

[darkenetiks]

noise.

[RickyRicardo]

sounds like atari teenage riot

what an insult to ATR. Sure they made noise, but at least they made it sound good.

I find it funny that people still make comments like "all dnb is so evil blah blah". What is this 2001? I take it those people don't hear much dnb at all. Sit down and actually listen to various forms of dnb before you make retarded comments like that. As far as coming up w/ reasons for leaving dnb, who are you again? What have you done to contribute to the dnb scene in the past?? I say don't let the door hit you on the way out.

teh stoopid thread

[daniella downs]

the live video made the song tolerable.

[Wicked Sway]

Post the other 7 reasons.

[daniella downs]

Post the other 7 reasons.

yes, please do.

[OhNoesIt'sJohn]

meh, you'll be back

btw, that was awesome. I really wouldn't call it dnb though. infact, it's way too chaotic...and to be honest, it's the best of the remixes i've heard because it keeps the spirit of the original more than using the original as a hook to get people in.

[empath]

I couldn't take a whole set of that.

But complete sensory overload is a classic way to end a show. I love the whole concept of just overwhelming an audience with noise or deconstructing the music until you almost can't take any more.

I saw a Smashing Pumpkins show that ended with like 10 minutes of just basically guitar noise, and finally just Billy Corgan by himself on stage with the guitar on the ground, ripping the strings off of it one at a time.

Or radiohead shows ending with Johnny Greenwood slowly destroying an endless loop of Thom Yorke's voice on a Korg box.

thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you D, thank you

a classic :hitwithrock: case to me

[quantum]

just to clarify:

I really didnt leave dnb, but most of what has come out in recent years I think is poop. the 4.4 and amen just got so tired for me, with the exception of maybe 3% of what some producers are doing. I havent bought more than 6 dnb records in the past 28 months.

im glad I think dnb is (mostly) stale, it got me into breakcore. (btw this is bong ra live at decibelo, america does not have anything like this going on)

dont take it all to seriously guys, I just wanted to share something awesome I found with you:bonk:

[Shakey]

that is truly one of the most awesome things i have ever seen.

[Russell Christ]

and perhaps even more relevantly ... THIS ISN'T DRUM&BASS :yawn:

I'm pretty sure it's Player - Angel of Theft (http://www.discogs.com/release/245068) which is dnb but produced a bit faster than 180 ot 185, but in this video, bong-ra plays it even faster, so it's no wonder it resembles break/grindcore bidness

...so, if hating on dnb got you into breakcore, why do you hate this performence of this song? since it resembles breakcore quite closely?

[shade]

thread failure.

[MURAMASA]

Edit: Ah, nevermind.

[Neptune]

breakcore is awesome....


but with any genre, just cause you can't hang, doesn't mean you should hate

:lastyear:


altho i will make fun of progressive and vocal house to no end, i can still appreciate the art of the music and what it does for people that are into it...

and if you try to tell me that breakcore is not music, i will tell you to :gtfo:

:spit:

[quantum]

That was fucking AWESOME.

Who/what was that?


this is bong ra, a breakcore producer from the netherlands. this video punched me in the balls it is so raw. since dnb got stale I picked up this genre, its actually pretty expansive and can be fairly downtempo/glitch. US breakcore shows arent on this scale, massives I guess you could say, but ive been to some in philly and pittsburgh and the producers here are showing promise.

[quantum]

I wasnt trying to hate, I guess sarcasm doesnt work on this board the way it does on some of the others.

[Spanish Fly]

Subject irrelevant to most.

No sense in arguing over opinions and lables of extreme music.

[Neptune]

just to clarify:

what you should have really clarified, is if you were for or against that video from the begining... cause now all its started it a flame war....


:deadhorse:

[Skandar]

I don't know how one can compare DnB to breakcore - it's dance music vs. headbanging music.


Music that I can't dance to automatically loses points in my book.

yea, i only wished i lived in london, then i could go to parties like this (http://www.bangface.com/)

i mean, that would be sssSSOOooo much fun, not to mention its on FRIDAY THE 13th in OCTOBER!!!!!!

agreed!!!!

IF this thread goes 10 pages it will be the 12th reason why Im giving up the "in yo face drum and bass thread" here at buzzlife.


I mean come on.

*resists urge to mention dubstep*



.......


dubstep > breakcore.

DAMMIT! it happened again. move along now, nothing to see here.

You really must not be listening to dnb very well at all. The 4.4 Amen comment is a commen claim people make that really know nothing about the music. I mean have you listened to some of the music, Noisia had made, Corrupt Souls, Masheen, Break & Silent Witness, Limewax, Pendulum, Subfocus... these guys are pushing the envelope for dnb. I'm all for breakcore, is good music, but as it being a reason why you arent into dnb anymore, seems to me that you never really were into dnb in the first place.

oh shnap.

ok right. i thought you were saying the music in the video was DnB and it sucked. anyhoo... i never understood this "im leaving dnb" mentality. do we really have such a retarded scenester mentality with this music that you have to "join" and "quit"? bizarre.

[Skandar]

But you can mosh too it.:rockon:

If I wanna mosh I'll go to a heavy metal show.

[Neptune]

:hilarious:

yea, i love that too, like its some kind of exclusive club and now will have to grate off your tattoo...

Im "quitting the scene" i mean come on, you go to club and hear music! it's not like you have to go get methadone now so you dont go thru withdrawal!!


try quitting heroine, then we'll talk about quitting. that takes commitment, not just pushing stop on you ipod

:jeffrey:

[Wicked Sway]

If I wanna mosh I'll go to a heavy metal show.

Or to a Breakcore show...

[Skandar]

Or to a Breakcore show...

Right. Not to a dance music party.

[MattSound]

Being well versed in the art of hating, I continue to have no issue with calling this shite.

It's funny, you would never know what a sad state the local scene is in with all of this lively discussion about genres and musical preferences.

Yeah, I said it....

<img src=http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e139/djblancodj/silky_johnson-chappelle.jpg>

from the netherlands...


is it my imagination, or does the netherlands make the most angry music?

what's wrong with them?

[guise]

breakcore gets teh chix

[robhyx]

Isn't that a Slayer song?

please note I said "most" dnb and its just an opinion. weve had similair discussions on this board about modern dnb (not you and me personally) and I still browse the weekly releases from juno and redeye but rarely (and I mean RARELY) do I find a tune that smacks me around the way the sound used too. (if you got recommendations available for purchase on vinyl or download, music that really push the envelope, taking the scene somewhere new, id love to get your recommendations. Im interested in fresh bass sounds, hyper complex drum layers that really stand out, etc)

The last time I really enjoyed myself at a live dnb show was therapy sessions philadelphia from LAST YEAR. I loved every tune that way played that night, and I still love what freak is doing, tech itch, limewax and the bunch. There are still some producers pushing the envelope with dnb production but lets face it the majority of whats available sounds the same.

sway I think you asked for the other "7 reasons" (even though the title of the the thread was more for comic value and sarcasm than to get the dnb purists panties in a bunch) I dont reallty like the fact that ive been seeking out the same tunes from that therapy session (I think it was march 2005) and they STILL havent been released, or wont see a release at all.

so, yeah, sorry to offend the purists, dnb for life and all, just sharing some sick video action with the board.

[decoy]

paradox for the win. I like those white vinyls that alaska makes :yes:

[Skandar]

Very good point - this genre especially is becoming more and more elitist as you have to be "in" with someone to get the best/newest tunes a lot of the time.

edit: from my limited experience.

Are you a DJ, or a just a listener(of DnB) ??
