lol i submitted this just so i could post this little bit of trivia: both Sonny Moore and Tommy Lee have recorded alongside members of Limp Bizkit.

Borland recorded bass on 2006's Heroine
Durst was a featured vocalist on the classic Methods of Mayhem track, "Get Naked"


but seriously folks, if you woulda told me 10 years ago that sonny from fftl and tommy lee would be touring the country, DJing for fist pumpers, i'd have been all like: "wha???" (in puberty voice)

This is one of the few artists I will defend. A lot of dubtep sucks, but Skrillex is pretty awesome.

Why is everyone surprised by Tommy Lee? He's performed with Deadmau5 before, he just bangs away on his drums

Pretty sure Sonny is about to create that species we've all been waiting for: scene ravers

Dubstep is a genre littered with rubbish artists. But like TomAkaVeto I will defend him.
He is a good artist in a generally bad genre.

"I hate it when people think they know what dubstep is."
Are you insinuating that Skrillex isn't dubstep? He, at the very least, has dubstep elements incorporated into his
electronic dance music.

No, I was referring to:

I like Skrillex, but the fact that someone will defend him and then claim that the genre is still full of rubbish is interesting

When the dubstep purists get together and start complaining about the new batch of artists who they think are "killing" the genre, well Skrillex is generally at the top of that list. That's why I thought it was interesting

Oh I gotcha. I was just saying that I would defend him because a lot of people seem to hate on him. Also, it seems
hard to find good dubstep artists. Have you ever listened to Chrispy? He's pretty popular, but his music is TERRIBLE.
And there are lots of "dubstep" artists I've found that sound EXACTLY like him. It's just a ton of wobbles and
bassdrops...and that's pretty much it.

you need to broaden your definition of dubstep. it's not just a genre of womp and bass hits

watch skrillex mad skills here in this vid:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2EXC1dBmZ4&feature=player_embedded

he presses 3 buttons, checks to make sure the eq isnt turned down like 8 times then just drinks and smokes. his transition to the next song is just awful. this guy sucks.

with a 5" grinder, a hammer and a piece of steel i could make songs that sound the same.

Oh shit, you mean he doesn't mix live? That he's a producer and not a dj? And that he spends days before creating mixes and spends the actual performances just tweaking and manipulating LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE?

Didn't that already happen with 'nu-rave?'

Anyway, I've actually been warming to some of his tunes recently, especially 'Scatta' with the Foreign Beggars.
