    Mostly because "dubstep" originally referred to dark, arty, British electronic music with a two-step rhythm, e.g. Burial, Kode9, and Zomby. The term "brostep" is used to differentiate this artier, less dance-friendly music from the music of more popular DJs, like Flux Pavilion and The Prodigy, that are toting wobbly basslines and 2-step structure but with a dance-heavy club feel.

    NPR says similar things, however they say that, "Many electronic-music purists call this sound "bro-step," for the fraternity-brother types drawn to it."

    I think Transformers fucking sounds more like Rotterdam Gabber:



    Now, Nymphomatriarch sounds exactly like two humans fucking. Because that's what all the samples were taken from. VSnares is a psychopathic genius.



    (The heavily modulated bends at around 2:20 were accomplished with a waterproof mic inside a condom. Hence the dialog. So yeah.)

    That reminds me of a video Chris Cunningham did with Aphex Twin (NSFW).

    They should show this in sex ed classes.

    I really like techno and electronic music, but I don't know many good DJs. As of right now, the only ones I listen to are Aphex Twin, Daft Punk, and The Avalanches.

    What other good techno exists?
    Are any of those artists actually "techno"? Daft Punk are more house than anything.

    I just discovered Fukk Off. I'm probably late to the party, but they are way awesome. Apparently this music is techically Electro House. I dig it.

    Techno songs I like come around about once every 5 years. This is one of them.
