In 5 years? I see electronic music going more in the direction of footwork. Right now footwork tracks are extremely ghetto sh!t, but if minimal/tech/white people get involved, it could be something really incredible:

Where do you see...Electronic Music in 5 years
Well, the way it's been here, is that no one knew/gave a sh!t about dubstep in its true, dubby, techy Bristol-based form in 2007/2008. I was playing it out, expecting people to really latch on since Americans love their breaks/hip-hop, which I assumed would translate to love for this new sh!t I was hearing called dubstep. Emptied dancefloors.tone-def wrote:really? it's been the other way round in the UK.thefunnel wrote:I believe that to be the case. The amount of paint-by-numbers brostep guys in the States that are finding DnB to be this "new" earth-shattering genre of music is quite staggering. I think it's sinking in to them since the big mutiny of DnB artists for dubstep caused a little influence crossoveriainkerr7 wrote:I think most dub step guys are going dnb?muler0o wrote:raresh will release his first ep

Autonomic.
it can only be a good thing for dubstep if americians stop making brostep.
Gave up on it, just decided to incorporate it occasionally into a techno set. Somewhere in 2009 Rusko, Excision, and brostep emerged...and now it's literally bigger than big beat and stadium trance in the '90s. It's massive. Even popstars and rappers are using dubstep backing tracks now.
But it's funny...you go out to an event, and the dnb cats that decided to forgo their roots by playing brostep will sneak dnb in...and people go hogwild now. OMG WHAT IS THIS?!!?!?!? OMG ITS LIKE FAST DUBSTEP!!!!! Now the Ruskos are spinning 10-20% dnb in their dubstep sets, and people are amazed, like it's some new form of music. Hilarious really.
It's going to eat itself though. Dubstep is set to implode in a big way, mark my words. Already some of the smarter bros are starting to talk sh!t about how it's "too popular." So we'll see what 2011 brings. Britney + Rusko for starters
@Stevesto
I can see that happening. I've been dropping the occasional footwurk mini-set into my dubstep/jungle sets, and people go hogwild wondering wtf it is. It's funny to see a crowd of white people have no clue how to dance to it, but they absolutely tear their nuts off with joy due to the eclectic beats and massive bass. It's quite entertaining. Admittedly though, it's a style that I can only handle in short bursts...as it becomes more mixed I can see it going to some interesting places.
I dread a footwurk takeover in the vein of brostep though...ugh. plz no

Totally, black people suck at making funky dance music. We need to get them out of the way so that white people can get on with making important footwork music.stevësto wrote:In 5 years?
