You're replying to someone who's coming from the original uk style sound. You might be thinking of the Skrillex big breakthrough as something great while OP he's saying that's when he ruined stuff.

Definitely feeling this! Reminds me of Benga, back in 2009. Make more of this please, a nice change up from the DnB and it shows just how versatile your packs are, since you can use them for various musical types and not just DnB!
I like Sleeper, Compa, Youngsta, Thelem, Biome, Eva808, TMSV, Commodo, J:Kenzo, Von D, SP:MC, LX ONE... What other REAL dubstep artists should we know about??? 😇
I cringe every time I hear the word "riddim"... its all brostep to me. Big up Stranjah, love the vital bits....and lol at your bobble head edits! Those always crack me up.
@@doomato397 Heavy dubstep riddim brostep.... I dont really really care, kids just need to stop trying to reinvent genres like they are doing something new... its already been done!
@@datapusher- riddim in raggae etc is reffering to the background instrumental, it's not a seperate sub genre. all though i agree that people need to stop coming up with lame "new genres", riddim has evolved to a point where it truly can't be classified as another dubstep subgenre
You've captured the pre 2020 dubstep sure, but the new Skrillex sound you mentioned is far different. He uses what he's learnt from other genres, he manually writes in automation, he tunes the hats, most of his drums are layered percs with dynamics and swing, most vocals used as call and response to drum parts with major time stretching and pitch tuning. Well tbh call and response is his go-to writing trick, but in order to make music like Skrillex you need to understand EDM, Dubstep, DnB, Trap, UK Garage, World Music and Metal and what separates them and use those distinctions to create the sound he has now. Here's a stupid crazy way to get drums like Skrill quick: Basic DubS beat, K - S - - K S - Replace Snare with snap/perc hits Replace dashes with hat/vox hit Offbeat hat between every K,S and Dash (load hat sample into a sampler piano roll for creating variations, a little rule which is keeps things clean. The faster the hat roll the higher you want to pitch to help transients of that hats) Find 2 background percussion/vox/texture/foley loops, get 2 that work incredibly together that both compliment and contrast. Now chop them up, chop of beat 1 an 2 an from one loop and beat 3 an 4 an from the other and see how they sound back to back. Play around with sections of your loops, to create a pt 1 & pt 2 in a subtle manner through your whole 1 bar drum beat. Any vox samples used in the mix of percussion, a little tip, use automation on reverb/stereo width when a vox hit is followed silence before next sound. For example if I use a vox hit as a snare sound, I would raise the reverb milliseconds after the initial snare hit and then choke (turn down the reverb) just before the kick hits. Humanise most elements!! Move supporting sounds off grid by a few pixels LITERALLY, helps loosen sounds up 🙏 There's so much more to dubstep than wub wub. Anyone actually wanting to learn how to create like Skrillex? Use World samples UK Garage/Bassline & Trap instruments and sounds (VSTs) Write it like a HipHopMetal track (Numetal) (f**k up lifters, down lifters and risers, stop being lazy, use drum fills, instrument fills and their effects to move the track along) And of course with all that in mind, you just gotta now make some dubstep... 🤘
For anyone using Serum in ableton Create an instrument Rack then open the Chain List at the bottom and add 2 chains to the instrument Rack 2 Seperate Serums will be connected to these Chains (1 Serum per chain) Have OSC A (The one without effects in Top & Rename the Chain to NO FX Serum) Have OSC B in the 2nd Chain (bottom one) & rename it FX Serum Then you can create this same effect through Serum in ableton (Not sure if other DAWs have instrument racks so that's why im specifying ableton since i do know that DAW)
thx Stranjah weither it's educational content or properly taylored samples and loop , ableton project ... it helps Just a quick listen to the free stuff said it all
Yep. Real dubstep. Not that brostep (tear out) sound. No disrespect. I like the in your face stuff but it’s crazy how people think that’s all there is. Real dubstep doesn’t sound anything like Skrillex, Excision, Sullivan King etc.
Excellent video my dude!! Don’t forget the groove pool tho when using loops and short patterns. Swing Logic, and the SP1200 swing add a real nice touch ❤
I'm sure a ton of new people to this genre in here so im really glad you set the record straight right away about how this is just OG UK Dubstep. I feel like thats an important point that should not go unnoticed.
@@sac5608 good for me fucc r u on abt bitc, old Skrillex went hard too. The fact I said caspa n rusko n u said brostep I don’t even wanna imagine the dogshit world u live in 😂 I kno ur girl hates ur music bro but don’t project that on me
Has a bit of an early Loefah vibe, tunes like Mud, Voodoo & It's Yours My personal favourite strain of deep dubstep is the stuff that draws influences from dub-techno, something about that cavernous dubstep swagger paired with the trippy atmosphererics of dub-techno just works so well. Some examples of tracks in this style would be: 2562 - Moog Dub Martyn - Vancouver Appleblim & Peverelist - Circling Scuba - Tense I wish more people were making tunes in this style... I mean, I am, but I want other people to make this stuff too so that I have more tunes to play in my sets!
Because Foundational Dubstep is The Dubstep ! Totally agreeing and assuming this "Vulgarriddim" popular in the US is a distorted trashy nonsense of the original ! Only vibes here, simple and efficient recipe as usual with Stranjah. 👏❤😊
I loved this tutorial. I've always wondered how to make gnarly basslines on vital like the one you showed. I'm new to using wave tables and I would've never figured out how to do it without me randomly coming across this video. 👍
Would like to see a video(s) from you around time domain effects; delay and reverbs, what plugs you use for these, and how you use them in the sound design and mix down phases of a composition.
@STRANJAH oh man, thank you so much! I saw a price when I looked into it so I threw it straight in the "later maybe" box haha, I've been missing out! Thanks so much for all your tips man, your channel is a new favourite of mine 🙏 finally taking a proper dive into production at 36 years old and loving it! Cheers 🙏💙💙
@STRANJAH I might have to my G! Although I just spent over 200 bucks on serum and it's taking me a while to get my head around it ! Thanks for the correspondence bro, love your stuff!
Oh my Vital Skin? For a moment I thought you were complimenting on my glowing complexion. All thanks to a daily 3-step skincare routine. But to answer your question, "Candy Cave" Vital Skin ;-)
Bro I dig your content, and I'm grateful for your effort to put work out to teach people, but the title though? xD music like BADDERS RADIO? Sicaria Sound? xD
You have to understanding gaming the algorithm in this TH-cam game. It’s not about being cool (the good dubstep names) it’s about what will trigger it so YOU will see the video.
It’s about gaming the algorithm and less about Skrillex. His name is trending now along with the good dubstep. So by catching on this trend new people will get exposure on how to make this music. Everyone wins.
I like how the word “subtle” came after “deep”. like, no. a dripment tutorial clearly displays the depth of tearout compared to early dubstep. It’s mosdef deeper. I still love the oldies, j/s.
Why you mad. His name has so much reach, he's bringing this sound to a new and bigger audience. And then this audience will learn about the names such as DMZ, Mala, etc. It can only help. This video wasn't about mentioning every name in the game, its about teaching you how to make the sounds people love.

Hi hat patterns programmed in triplets, adds a really nice groove and shuffle to this type of beat.

Always a treat when you upload. Thank god old school dubstep is coming back, im about done with this tearout shit.
Is Skrillex trying to claw himself some credibility by reverting to actual dubstep now?
BOOM BEST COMMENT!!!!!
Maybe his taste just got refined?
@@STRANJAHI think that’s almost certainly the case! That being said there is some irony in it, somewhere… I’m sure.
thank you for the words in the intro! some people definitely needed to hear that
so glad you use vital as well
great video as usual Alan :)
Dude, you're looking so well! You got the sleep thing sorted then?
Yes health has been better thanks
more of these please❤🔥
This dude is going to turn us all into Skrillexes
Imagine being at a rave with 100 little Skrillex with their head half shaved
Not dubstep
Has a bit of an early Loefah vibe, tunes like Mud, Voodoo & It's Yours
