mattus123 Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Apologies in advance for this rookie question, as ive only jsut started listening to this sortah stufflooking at some of the songs posted here under drumstep, too me i would call these tracks dubstep... im obviously wrong.viewtopic.php?f=69&t=8977so my question is.. what is the differences between dubstep and drumstep.. and any other similar genres/subgenres Quote
Mitch Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 havent' listened to the tracks yet, but drumstep is a genre that offsprings from dubstep and Drum & Bass, drawing elements from both genres to create a new one. Quite often at a similar speed to DnB instead of the slower dubstep speed.Correct me if i'm wrong anyone Quote

mattus123 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Posted January 30, 2012 ahhhhhhkyea i was gonna say, it sounds really similar to dupstep, sounded more agressive than drum and bassquestion = answered Quote
OxyKon Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Trust me dude, your gonna have fun mixing the 2 together Quote
russell Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 So it's basically just fast dubstep. Why not just call it dubstep? Quote
street Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Drum and bass has the snare on beats 2 and 4, whereas drumstep has the snare only on beat 3. Quote
Mitch Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Your not cool until you mix a subgenre nobody has heard of Quote
russell Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 bro dubstep is all about subgenre'sAs is the case with most genre's but I've always felt that it get's a bit much when it comes to sub genres. Some of the the titles for them out there are ridiculous. This one isn't too bad but it's still just dubstep in my ears.EDIT: or make up your own sub genre. I play lava house. deep as fuck.... Quote
Jaz Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 perfect example is skrillex's new bangarang (single) its like 90bpm aka 180bpm like drum and bass, but its better to look at it as 90bpm because it does sound slower,and with a standard 4x4 kick beat unlike that off kick and snare dubstep sound, you cant really call it dubstep so someone came up with drumstep Quote
Mitch Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Bangarang is like 110-115 bpm and its moombahton? lol Quote
OxyKon Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 I think jaz is thinking of the track Kyoto, that's the drumstep track Quote
LabRat Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Drumstep was basically created by the dnb guys so they could mix dubstep in their sets. Dubstep itself was too slow so they just sped it up really. True story btw lol Quote
Jaz Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 yeh defkon thats the 1 thats 90, my bad...can we define moombahton in this thread as well...also curious on it all Quote
OxyKon Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Can't think of that track off the top of my head jazSpitfire yeah its a really cool true story Quote
Mitch Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Moombahton is described a combination of "moombah" and "reggaeton." Often described as 'Dutch House slowed down to 110BPM'.Moombahton consists of latin beats mixed up with dutch house productions slowed down to 110bpm. Moombahton has two main subgenres, Moombahsoul and Moombahcore. Moombahcore was founded by Munchi which added hardcore sounds (mainly Dubstep) to the 110bpm range. It consits of hard bass Moombahton. Moombahsoul was founded by David Heartbreak, which featured Moombahton remixes and edits of R&B classics with Moombahton influences and techniques. Quote
Jaz Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 kyoto sounds just like dub though, if you didnt already know it was 90 you would swear its standard 140ish dubstep... Quote
OxyKon Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 When I 1st heard Kyoto I knew straight away that it was drumstep, yeah it's got that dub feel to it but the beat was way too fast for dubstep Quote

eggssell Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 oh it was also in the wikipedia article, but i think the interview was on the mad decent blog.anyways it was from slowing down the track called moombah to a reggaeton speed. which is basically the moombahton sound, i.e. slowing house music in particular dutch and fidget to 108 BPMMoombahton (also known as Moom Moom) is a sub-genre of electronic dance music that was created by American DJ and producer Dave Nada[2] (aka Dave Villegas) at a high school homecoming "skipping party" for his younger cousin in Washington, D.C., in the fall of 2009.[3] The specific event that stimulated Nada's development of the Moombahton genre was his slowing the Afrojack remix of the Silvio Ecomo & DJ Chuckie song "Moombah" to 108 beats per minute, a tempo near that of the reggaeton. The name of the sub-genre itself comes from the portmanteau of "moombah" and "reggaeton."from wiki Quote
Mitch Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Yer I think he did, the two people mentioned what i quoted changed it up and made new subgenre's called moombahsoul & moombahcore.EDIT: you read it up before i could post this Quote
