The IDEA of the genre makes sense, regardless of whether or not it's a stupid or a useful term, it's
categorized with R&B/soul or/and ambient aspects of dubstep

"Post-dubstep might make sense as a genre except for the fact that we haven't seen any artists making music that can be described as such"
Basically said this in the review.
"you should probably give this first paragraph a re-read, stranger. Reads a lil awkward"
Will do tomorrow, man. A little busy atm :P

I can't wait until critics start calling the new Daft Punk record "Post-Dance"
|

Yes, but why bother with an idea that has absolutely no application and only adds to the clutter of already rather meaningless genre tags?
|
| |
It does in the marketing world! People seem to eat up this "post-dubstep" talk like candy! It works
and makes sense as a genre to refer to it as a more calmer and soulful dubstep, but whether or not it
should be used or is useful is up for debate.

I think I read that James categorizes his stuff as melodic bass music and I think that's much more descriptive and less stupid than post-dubstep
|
| |
I'm not saying it isn't stupid, it certainly is and isn't very descriptive. I'm just saying it makes
sense and it isn't a thing to get so hostile about. Hell, a lot of electronic musicians have actually
lashed out about post-dubstep. I just might not get it, though.

then tell me since you're a dubstep expert. People label it as "post" dubstep because it refers to dubstep but adding more to it. Almost like something coming "after" dubstep. Linking things together. More preferably ambient and soul/R&B
And that's pointless. All genres evolve, and this take on is by no means the first change that's been made to it.
Hell knows why we're talking about this anyway. The dubstep on here is minimal.

I mean, I'm not up in arms about it either way, I just think it's a bit silly

post-post avant garde lols
anyway album is rad, i dont quite understand why james didnt put every day i ran on the official track list. song is way too good to be a bonus track

Yeah. All genres evolve. That's why we label them as different things. Yes, post dubstep isn't very insightful or descriptive, but the idea around it is no different from labeling Isis as post-metal because they add more to the metal genre like post rock.

Completely changing the sound of a genre is different to adding aspects from other genres.

Both change the sound of their genres, so why shouldn't both be labelled as different things?
