3rd
Sub.mission party, and I've yet to be disappointed. These guys are always bringing out a hot show; Sub.mission 2 included headliners
Parson and
Ana Sia and was definitely one of the highlights, as far as electronic music goes, for the summer. Unfortunately i missed out on Nick Aragon this past spring, but heard high reviews.
Last night at Sub.mission3 was the
Hatcha &
Benga show at Benders on 12th and Grant.
Hatcha and
Benga are some of the key musicians in the recent DubStep movement in the UK (and the US).
Dupstep spurred from South London
grime and
garage sounds and
dub which is a sub genre of reggae. The result;
2-step, long, wobbly bass lines. It is a melodic electronic music that creates a strange sexual tension in its dark, luscious lower bpm [beats per minute].
In Denver dubstep fans tend to be drum and bass heads and/or glitch/whomp [heavy bass line] fiends. There are also many who do not entirely connect with it, because of its heavier, slow pace some fans of electronic music become easily bored by the music, often complaining that it is "too slow." I, of course, am a huge fan, but as it is "different strokes for different folks."
