As for music being made/for the working classes... not sure I'm feeling that. Has nothing to do with class at all, good music transcends barriers like that. There's plenty of good tunes coming from all sorts of people from all backgrounds that's the fun of it all.


IMO the best music comes from the oppression of one form or another...... but that's a different argument altogether. No rich boy ever made a good beat. (i'm sure there are examples but i'm generalising, as always...)

A gross generalization really......

I'd love to know what oppression Richard D James (Aphex Twin) had then, hehe. Good music comes from a passion and understanding of ones life and place in the world, not just oppression, imho. But also, 'good music' is subjective and relative to each individual anyway.

Wasn't into dubstep until I discovered Burial. Listened to Untrue..one of those albums that changes your life. I listen to Burial for everything now. When I'm driving, when @ work, when on the toilet. Dude's sound just makes life all the more better.

i hhhhhhhhhhhhhate dubstep. it's the equivalent to a fly hitting a lightbuld. for rap it's great though! any time i go to a party in the d and they play dubstep... watch the dancefloor confusion. you can't DANCE to dubstep. you can only put your hands in the air and thrust your pelvice.. i'm tellin you. it's great to make white kids feel black :lol:

edit: altho i will say, i like the productions. just not the music itself.
