I've been wanting a thread like this in here for a while but was far too lazy to make one, thanks OP. Happy that Bassnectar made it in there as well. Love his stuff, first started listening in 2009/10ish and first saw him at a tour stop in 2011 in a sweaty rear end nasty club. I'm not one of those "follow Bassnectar everywhere he goes" types, but if he's at a festival I am, believe I'm at his set over anyone else. This year's NYE 360 was the first of his curated events I've seen and I was blown away. Off his newest release, this song makes me want to jump through the goddamn ceiling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJlYXGJXR4o All that said, I cannot loving stand ~*weird bass*~ crap like Space Jesus, Yheti, Toadface and whatever else. It's like, instead of trying to make music, they're trying to be edgy and make poo poo that sounds dumber and more bizarre than the next guy.

Anonymous John posted:Flume who is completely one-note AF. I can't agree with this more. Flume is awesome when he works with other artists, but when left to his own devices, Flume tries too hard to Flume. Just constant edgelording "aha, bet you didn't expect THAT!" and it ends up sounding like poo poo.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:I saw Flosstradamus for the first time tonight and that was certainly ridiculous! Floss are certainly pioneers, but I've never really been impressed with them live. Curt continually stays mixing (not outstandingly) and Josh just yelled at people and waved a flag. I always figured Josh was some sort of studio/production wizard and just couldn't DJ worth anything. Haven't heard from them much since the split, what's the show like with just Curt?

I was gonna go to Bassnectar NYE but I slept on tickets and it sold out. Also my work schedule has me waking up around 3am and going to sleep between 6 and 7pm so a 9pm-2am show isn't really a thing that can happen anyway.

Bassnectar NYE 360 is going to be in Louisville, KY this year. I'm almost certainly going since I grew up in Kentucky and know a boatload of people who will be there. I haven't been back in over a year, but hell if I'm going to miss a 360 in my home state.

My college buds and I would always trip on New Year's Day, and one year "Daft Punk syncs up to the Rose Bowl" was said. On acid, Daft Punk DEFINITELY synced up to the Rose Bowl. That's my Daft Punk story.

Also, despite my (probably) terrible taste in music, here are a couple of Daft Punk remixes I've enjoyed. Both are from when trap edm was becoming a thing, and the snaps and what's were hot.

Rageaholic posted:Good. He deserves to. Hell, same. I'm one of those weirdos that prefers physical media over streaming, and all my Bassnectar discs were at the very front of the cd wallet in my car. There were times I'd listen to Vava Voom or NVSB while driving and I'd go through them front to back, like four times in a row over the course of a number of days. I haven't touched them in months. I made a comment on Reddit (I know) about how none of what he did is defensible and if he does down the line decide to come back, the community should not in any circumstance support that action, and got extremely downvoted. He put on one gently caress of a live show, and I have some memories that I'll never forget. Probably the best of which is from Electric Forest 2015, one of my closest friends was kind of gloomy as we're standing around pre-show, so I gave him a drug-fueled passionate pep-talk about looking at all the wonderful people out here wearing their favorite outfits, playing with their favorite shiny and flashy and glowy poo poo, and they're all here to have a drat good time! He gave me a hug and from what I could tell, had a drat good time! What really locked in the memory was the next morning at camp he said to me "Thanks for last night man, I was able to not think about anything and enjoy the show. I needed that." I'll keep those parts, but if you want to greenlight his actions as a person, go gently caress yourself.

A bunch of my friends back home worked really hard to establish a thriving EDM scene in our city of ~500K. They got ill to play a show, took him during the day to check out some local spots, hung out after the show, and multiple times he's messaged them like "hey I'm playing Saturday two hours away, you got anywhere I can throw down Thursday or Friday?" Not to promoters or clubs directly, but to the people building grassroots, who then go to the people they know at the venues. Super cool guy.

Odesza are loving god damned a-ok all the gently caress right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xF-UznUkhP8 I've heard a couple of Sasha Sloan's other songs and she's good at music, too. I guess that's why they'd feature her. e: they were the last show or one of the last shows at Ranch Arena EF 2015, on a loving THURSDAY. Top five "we're all here right now" kind of moments.

Alison Wonderland is definitely near or at the top of my list to see live. Her podcast is consistently excellent, and by the way she speaks of it, you can tell she's just not slamming bangers one after another, but actually creating a unique work out of the unique work of others, and herself.

Bust Rodd posted:It feels weird to say but the biggest dubstep and trap DJs of 2021 are still playing basically the same exact music the biggest dubstep DJs of 2012-2015 were playing. I pretty much agree with this. It almost seems like if you go to a show and don't hear some of those 2010-2015 tracks dropped, it's a disappointment. Dang kids with their 808s and future bass. I feel like a lot of the future bass type stuff I've listened to is just based on "yeahhhhh bet ya didn't expect that" and it just ends up sounding like poo poo with no discernable tempo or rhythm.

So much poo poo being passed back and forth on Reddit between Bassnectar and Illenium fans. From what I can tell, Illenium played a Bassnectar track at a show, people were like, hey, guy, he's currently on trial for sexual assault and human trafficking, maybe don't play his songs right now? So he says "I didn't even know it was a Bassnectar song, it wasn't labeled as such in my library," and Bassnectar fans are climbing way out of the woodwork to look for any way to prove that the clown wasn't a groomer. Again. Disclosure: Bassnectar was basically what got me into any sort of electronic music. I've been to a number of club shows and festivals he's headlined. I have about six CDs in the binder in my car and I haven't listened to a single one since the allegations against him came out. And I will not.

Uggggggg Summit is such a beautiful song that pretty much encapsulates the music and friends I listened to and loved that decade. To this day the most fun I've ever had at a performance was Skrillex at Electric Forest 2015. edit: opener and some more https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q6DMLdMKCc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMj4qguGfRk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FN9ledorfg4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhSr8CikLpQ I don't give a gently caress or poo poo about what anyone says about dubstep or brostep, Skrillex is one of the gods of that type of music.
