@bookish1 I really enjoyed the Kaliyuga piece, but couldn’t open your second link.
@jerv I also liked Shaolin Satellite, but I already liked Thievery Corporation (one of you folks said you didn’t think TC fit the dubstep description) Also enjoyed Downlink Deep Space, but even though I like the dancing, it’s kind of funny, just because it reminds me of the robot from the early 70’s.
So yeah, I guess I do like it, but I still don’t think I could identify it for sure if I heard a random dubstep song. It sounds kind of like soundtrack music for movies (which I tend to love) because it’s kind of ambient. But dubstep, at least in the examples you guys have so kindly provided, sounds a bit more loud or electronic than just some of the other ambient music I have heard.
These are a couple of songs that I like, that I consider to be ambient. Hella Bar Talk from the soundtrack of Star Trek 2009 (but I could see if it was pumped up a little it might ooze over into the dubstep realm). The other one is Bossa Per Due by Nicola Conte, which is also ambient, but clearly bossa nova as well. Could it be considered dubstep too?
Sorry to sound so lame in trying to get it. But I think I do like it : )
P.S. Does anybody know if that little gear symbol on Facebook has anything to do with Steampunk? LOL Just teasin’
