And the same can probably be said about the genre - there are genres wee all like and dislike, thus the "hate" towards dubstep/"brostep" fans spawns from butthurt fans of apparently close-by genres.

Make it popular? He seems to stick to Wikis description of the genre pretty well...

Wiki on Dubstep Wrote:Its overall sound has been described as "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals".

You dislike Skrillex because you don't like dubstep.

No, I dislike Skrillex because he makes shit music.

People like it, and it's popular, but that doesn't make it good music.

Loads of people like Katy Perry, but she makes shit music no matter how you look at it. Loads of people like mainstream rap (drums + dude talking over it), but it's still shit music.

It's repetitive and annoying. It's shit music whether you actually like it or not.

Pretty disappointed to hear that from you, bread.

I agree mainstream rap and Katy Perry is spoon, however... be it Skrillex, mainstream rap or Katy Perry, the fact that you don't like it doesn't automatically make it spoon music in every case. It's spoon music to you and you shouldn't be trying to state facts that are defined by personal taste.

It's like Metal, I can gladly say it's my favorite genre but I'm not going to dislike someone else for thinking its spoon. If that person tries to shove their opinion about Metal down my throat however, I'll take that for the worse - nobody is in the position to be like that.

I don't like it.
