They really are all at it now. Teen pop sensation Justin Bieber has revealed that he's keen to make a dubstep album.

In an interview with USA Today, when asked about his forthcoming new album the pint sized Canadian pop star said, "I'm about halfway through. What's big right now are beats that are in the clubs, like dubstep. So I want to mess with that stuff, but also stay me."

While Bieber's move from nauseating sugary pop hooks to the sub bass of dubstep may be a shock to some, there could be a simple explanation.

Recent reports suggested, Bieber's manager, Scooter Braunt had claimed that Justin's "balls had dropped", and the singer was struggling to hit the high notes while recording a duet with Mariah Carey.

Maybe Bieber's lowered tones are now more suited to accompanying pant shuddering wobble than Usher's incessant warbling. We hope he's not planning a move into MCing!

I was already upset at how badly mangled Dubstep has become, but really? The Bieber? I can smell Dubstep about to die pretty soon...

So, whoever listens to Brostep like Skrillex, Boregore, Rusko when he started doing Brostep, Flux Pavilion, Doctor P, Nero, Excision and Datsik, and all those other punks that are usually on the UKF Douchestep Youtube account: Y'all brought this upon yourselves and this is what you're getting. You're welcome. :X

If he's hiring some professional artist to collaborate with him in tracks JB provides the lyrics, then I can see this being w/e, probably even better than songs which use house music, like 99% of pop today
If it's JB himself making dubstep.... well crap.
edit: also, not all brostep is terrible >_>

For his sake I HOPE it's like the original dubstep sound, because that would just make things more interesting

but I can bet you he'll hire Skrillex or someone like that for at least one track

No, he should take off those thick-rimmed glasses first.

If this is not a sarcastic comment
I agree.
Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites is a terrible song though.

Cracked up at this. I don't really care about dubstep or Bieber but I did not expect this line at all.

If it's Mid-range with no subs and bass drops, of course it'll be terrible :(

All kinds of trance, I prefer to lean more towards anthem trance (Darude - Sandstorm is the best example), tech trance (Jochen Miller/Ummet Ozcan),
and some minor hard trance (Alphazone - Flashback); not so much psytrance, but goa trance is all right (Chi A.D. - Biocandy).

edit: Astral Warrior as well
my fav is still Biocandy though, it was the first Goa Trance song I heard, and it's very anthem trance oriented.

I don't like Anthems in my Trance though :( They're not hypnotic like that

I haven't listened to Astral Warrior though. I'll take your word for it

i was watching the news about his alleged baby, and they posted some of the tweets his "beliebers" posted, and one of them said "if it does turn out to be his i'll throw myself out my window and beat myself to death with my own limbs"

i was like "thank good god, one less idiot on the planet to deal with"

If he goes for the mid-range bass crap like Skrillex does, then it's all over

I prefer to have decent sub-bass and actual two-step rhythm

That doesn't answer the question at all. How/why does a certain artist making a certain type of music, regardless of quantity, drive you to "quit" the genre?

Because it's gotten to a point of ridiculousness that it isn't even worth listening to anymore. Does that answer your question?

lol Draylo's going to be saying something about how I'm a big baby now and I'm such an attention ***.

Not really. The songs you already enjoy are no better or worse as a result of this, so unless you're just bandwagoning the scene your statements make no sense.

Perhaps, but it'll still impose a negative social effect in that everyone will start thinking Justin Bieber as Dubstep in the same way as Skrillex is (apparently) Dubstep. Shoot me if people start calling Paris Hilton "Techno."

edit: Paris Hilton is making an Electro House album it seems <_<

its pretty simple, Dubstep is the new hipster crap, if the mainstream invades it, they will all move onto the next thing that sets them apart from everyone else, no matter how shitty it is. i listen to music because i like it, not because it makes me seem like i'm better then everyone else.

What Killmer said too.

I don't listen to music because it makes me better than others either, but when I encounter shitty music, I become a ***, because I care about what I listen to as well.

Why does social perception of your musical genres matter to you? Not even artists or songs, just the general genre. Sure, it's nice if your friends appreciate the same artists, but does their (or millions of strangers') dislike of that music or even that of a completely different artist within the same genre really change your perception of a song's/artist's quality?

What Killmer said doesn't answer the question either, nevermind the laughable idea that dubstep isn't relatively mainstream already.
