Glitchcore? Cybergoth? Post-hardcore? Breakcore? Weirdcore?

i'll respect you if you say something intelligent, or funny, or if you take the trouble to work out where you are and what the place is about and why it's hostile towards nonce-core

it’s broadly “about” dubstep and genres surrounding it from what I can tell (may be incorrect; there’s not a huge amount of information available), but it seemed from the threads in the music section that there wasn’t a limit on what could be discussed. Anyway I’m trying to figure out where politics comes into this because nobody my age in the UK really listens to dubstep, and student club culture when it isn’t pop charts or throwback nights is just decontextualised white boy vanity projects (bristol woii dnb; the most bland depressing Ross from friends house) — so I get that this place has a history etc, but if you’re hostile towards new cultural forms then is this just a relic of a community of fans who aren’t really engaged with the social conditions that music is made and heard in?

and I get that this stuff can sound like crazy happy anime fairy shit but I think that’s a product of the conditions that form it rather than something that means it should be discounted — like even if it is “prescription stimulant music for doing your webdev work ("coding")”, isn’t there some kind of consciousness being formed here of that state? So if you aren’t interested in that then to me it feels like a disinterest in social and political realities.

if what you want to do is to say, this music is the way it is becasue of nebulous social and political 'realities', then by all means make the argument. we quite like that kind of thing.

There is some properly exciting stuff in this domain, but it is absolutely saturated with anime/memes/nonce chucklefucks. At its best it's properly psychedelic though.

i think you can do this but what i would also say is that you have to acknowledge that your choice of cultural artefact to be interrogated is arbitary and not special. this is where people always get into trouble

maybe some other things, all equally bad as music, but all equally good in terms of reflecting nebulous social and political 'realities'. thats definitely a game we can play. you start.
