I think it's good in moderation. I love listening to dub, but the lower energy stuff is kinda hard to dance to. That's why I like two equal sized rooms like at the last halloween party I went to (forgot what the name was)--one dub, one other stuff. =)
well i think with this, not only is the genre but dj's are also evolving when they produce/play dubstep.
alot of newer dubstep tracks have a more breaky edge to them sometimes, i mean the music is also derived from drum n bass.
sometimes there are dubstep tracks that have a electro feel to them.
and even sometimes people mistake dubstep for midtempo/glitch.
but usually those are the people who mistake every genre for techno lol.
the slower tunes are for the mixes that dj's put out. and hell if the energy is high enough maybe those slower dubstep tracks will serve their purpose.
i think a good dubstep dj will incorporate those factors of danceable music when he is mixing to a crowded room.
i always like to play the heaviest grimiest hard hitting dubstep i have. if nobody seems to feel it or "get" it, i like to bring in a 130 bpm bassline/electro track. and the sound/atmosphere of the room also make a difference. dubstep is a bass driven music. there needs to be some really good set up to get the proper dubstep effect in the room.
I dont know, when I hear music I like to hear it proper. Bass music needs a bass to play on.
none of this gibberish even makes sense probably

for me, dub is like a drug. it enters through my ear canals, starts pulsing through my veins, pulsing downward through my hips, my legs start to quiver, and my feet start to tap, until my whole body is devoured and i just cant stop moving. it doesnt matter what time it is, or how bad my feet hurt, or how long ive been dancing in the first place, if the dub is up, so am i.  :snoop:

And I hear you about the headliner deal, I think proximity is an issue that makes is hard for dubstep headliners to come to Reno.  I could be wrong but most of the big dudes like Rusko, Skream, Caspa, Joker, Nero, etc. are from the UK right?  Lord knows what their guarantees are in addition to flight and hotel.  By then you are at at least 5-8k if not more to bring someone out.  Reno can't support that.   

Benga, Skream, Caspa, etc are all going for at least $5k right now.  Rusko is the tiesto of dubstep essentially... he's probably around $8-12k if you can even get his agent to commit to letting him in your market.  

He's not dubstep but Fake Blood for example... his agent won't even bring him to areas in the Northeast just because they would rather have them tour particular regions.  It's nuts... I never remembered booking dj's to be as hard as it is now....even when you've got $8k to throw into the pot!

I think that's ridiculous. I would never give money to such a stingy artist.

There are artists coming out of the bay area that shit all over UK dubstep IMO for a fraction of the price. I don't really care who did it first either... if you're going to snub fans because of 'markets' then you suck ass and don't deserve to be where you are.
