I really think dubstep is overrated! I do enjoy it but people saying that its their favorite kind of music just makes me laugh! Its fun and cool and all but its getting way to repetitive and has no soul to it now. Its like dance part, bassdrop and then womp womp womp the rest of the song and there you go you got yourself a dubstep song. I really wish people would open their minds and actually understand the music that they listen to (escpecially whats playing on the radio nowadays). Anyways those are my thoughts and im not bashing on dubstep in any way, i do enjoy it but there is way to much hype around it. What do you guys think?
Bolded the parts that caught my eye here... First I think the term "overrated" is, itself, overrated.
People use that term a lot, and I usually see it in cases where something is popular that the user of the word doesn't particularly like, or like as much. I don't think that's an appropriate way to use the word. I think the word is useful when something is objectively inferior, and I guess that is the angle you're approaching this from, but I think you're ignoring how personal music is for people.
I question why you'd laugh at someone's choice of their favorite genre, especially if it's a genre you yourself do like sometimes. If it was a genre that didn't make sense to you on any level, then I'd get that, but clearly you understand how someone could enjoy it at least a little, so I don't see why someone preferring it is weird to you. Music is highly personal. Most people are not interested in going into listening to music and picking it apart. There's just "does this sound cool to me or not?", and evidently a lot of people feel it's the former. No one's interested in "opening their minds" and understanding the genre exactly as you want them to. Even if the music is objectively worse in construction, that's not usually relevant to personal favorites (there's a huge difference between someone's "favorite" and what they think is "the best"), and regardless, your objective interpretation isn't automatically someone else's objective interpretation. Objective =/= actual fact.
I really don't like,it's not even music,no one sings or plays any instruments it is ridiculous.It's just the computer playing.Just like Jim Morrison said the music will end when music will be created by machines
You're looking at it from the wrong perspective. Computers are not the absence of an instrument. They are instruments in themselves. It's
not being created by machine. It's being created
with machines. They are the tool, but humans are still the ones creating them. Besides, if you have a beef with dubstep for no actual instruments being involved, then you pretty much have to hate every single piece of video game music prior to the PlayStation 1 and Nintendo 64, and many, many songs after that too, including all Zelda songs prior to Skyward Sword.
