I don't know anything about The Glitch Mob (except that one of them wears a black shirt) or dubstep or whatever genre this might be. I know that it sounds like something I could make using iSequence or Ableton Live if I really knew what I was doing, which I don't, so I can't, but if I could, maybe I would, because this song is interesting and fun.

I dig the intro, with the acoustic drums (oh, lord), and then all of a sudden it's like, "BLOWN OUT KICK, RIGHT IN YOUR FACE!" and you're like, "Ooah!" and then you're like, "Shit, that's why the guy names his work that!"

Sigh.

I'm realizing that learning how to make cool stuff using music programs is going to take a while. I actually rather accidentally came up with something quite cool yesterday in iSequence for iPad (which is totally awesome by the way) while sitting in the air conditioned library (thank you, taxes and big evil government, for the free AC) over the course of an hour and a half, but then I pressed a button, I am not sure which button, but it caused the program to crash. I had yet to save. It sucked.

But what was cool was that what I came up with sounded like pretty good dubstep. This doesn't really sound so much like dubstep, maybe it's more 'glitch', whatever that means. I really don't know anything about either so I'm not at all qualified to say, but the rumor is that dubstep is supposed to sound 'gritty' and 'grimy' or something (Like oily sand? Lots of that in the Gulf now). This is only kind of 'slimy', but with some 'friction' from the 'blown out' kick if you 'know' what 'I' mean.
