Not actually watched it but its meant to be a good summary of how dubstep went from a credible genre into basically meme music for american frat bros

I steer well clear of anything that regards itself as dubstep these days.

Although I don't even consider Burial dubsetp so unsure how he fits in that video haha.

He was very much considered part of dubstep scene in early days although he was kinda in his own category of it as his music had way more depth than the likes of Mala, Benga, Skream and all the other artists who were blowing up around the mid 2000s.




I remember hearing this at a DMZ night in London around 2005 I think and thinking its the best thing id heard in years

Yeh I always cornered it more in that sort-of future garage style of music, some jungle in it, never really dubset.

Physically can't listen to stuff like Skrillex though as my ears just bleed.

Broke my heart when I saw Four Tet collaborating with Skrillex. I try to forget it happened but this reminded me ffs. Cheers lol

The early days of dubstep were so good. I like Skream’s first album and songs like Dutch Flowerz and Rutten. Summer Dreams is also a good one. As were some of the artists that branched off from it, most notably for me Mount Kimbie.

Four Tet did a collaboration with Skrillex ? Lol random.

Skrillex is a weird one, I cant stand his music but hes into stuff like Aphex Twin, Burial, Squarepusher and all these cool experimental artists but his music tends to be the polar opposite. I think he deep down wishes he could make cool niche music but the mega money for making plastic/mainstream dance music is too tempting and lucrative. He apparently turned down a grammy and told them to give it to Aphex Twin instead, which they actually did despite the people in charge probably not even knowing who Aphex Twin is lol

He also once made a burial inspired track as a bside to one his big singles and all his 14 year old fans were like wtf is this, where's the drop bro ?

I think he Skrillex hasn't done music like he used to for a while now. I know he did some hip-hop beats a few years ago.

One of my worse memories is him playing at a festival when I was trying to sleep in my tent. People going mad to him at 6am, climbing trees and stuff lol

Not much comes close to Burial’s Untrue. It’s a masterpiece. I remember hearing his music for the first time and being totally blown away by it. It was so different to anything I’d ever heard.

Yeah but I never listened to it. I think he’s a talented producer for sure, and I think you’re probably right. The $$$ is just too tempting.

I wonder if he’s ever released music under a different name. Nicolas Jaar, another great produced, has said that he releases music under different names all the time. I only know of Against All Logic, though.
