The fact of the matter is that none of these dubstep "artists" do anything but play previously-recorded songs when they're on stage. If you cannot perform it live when on stage, it shouldn't be considered music.

Mix a set. And do it right. Then we'll talk. It's harder than you think. OR produce a track. Just TRY that. You won't be able to do either. I promise. Any real DJ does perform a set live. They don't just use an iTunes playlist on shuffle, and mixing isn't easy.The fact of the matter is that none of these dubstep "artists" do anything but play previously-recorded songs when they're on stage.

It's dance music, and it's a rapidly growing industry. I didn't like it at first, but it grows on you. And haters gonna hate, but to each their own.

So if someone used a program to make a song into a midi format it wouldn't be considered music anymore?

I never said that. That's a bit different, isn't it?
As for you, Zam (too lazy to go back and multiquote), I do not listen to country. Haven't for about 2-3 years. If the DJ performs it live, then that's fine - I consider that music. However, if you cannot perform it live, I don't consider that person an artist.

I miss when lyrics used to mean something, honestly.
What I THINK he meant is that some DJ's take the time to create sounds, record vocals, write melodies, and perfect his mix, AND also perform it live, instead of "Play" and "Stop".The fact of the matter is that none of these dubstep "artists" do anything but play previously-recorded songs when they're on stage.

You don't consider a person who spends hours in the studio creating sounds, recording vocals, writing melodies, and perfecting his mix an artist? What?
And live electronic dance music shows are different, by the way. People go to those shows to dance like crazy to their favorite tunes, which are played over a loud, kickass sound system that would defeat their white iPod earbuds any day. The experience is phenomenal. The DJ (in some circumstances, the artist) worked on his tracks already; why would he need to perform it live for it to be "real" music?
I (sadly) am more ignorant than wsoxfan, and I personally believe dubstep is a piece of crappy noises put together to create something that's APPARATELLY music.The fact of the matter is that none of these dubstep "artists" do anything but play previously-recorded songs when they're on stage.

Again, that might be ignorant, but that's how I feel and think about dubstep, I don't just HATE it, I actually think it's not music, I don't think someone can create music if they don't know how to sing nor use a musical instrument.

Have some generic dance music that they play on SiriusXM a lot:

I wont continue arguing about this obsolete topic.Lol, you dumbo. Lyrics come in at around one minute in. And also, a synthesizer is an instrument, and if you SERIOUSLY think a song has to have lyrics in it to be actual "music", then I hate you very much right now.

Dubstep is not real music, whether you like that collection of sounds is a different thing, but it.is.not.music, and if you think otherwise, then I hate you very much right now.
