I’m going to share with you a theory about the underground music subgenres that you should avoid creating and why?
And the why is simple: Because you will waste your time.
Because those genres will not be here after a while.
They are already holding out much longer than expected.
Dubstep will eventually die.
Today I prove myself correct. The Dubstep scene is dead. There is no Dubstep anymore.
The same will happen very soon with most Dark Psytrance styles and Hardcore Techno subgenres. Why do I feel that this is the inevitable evolution of things? Allow me to explain. The value of a song is proven through time. Time is the ultimate judge. If your song does not last in time it has no value.
The more times a song is being enjoyed, sing, remade, mixed, the more it survives in the world’s music scene. And what happens every 20-30 years? The contemporary trends cannot keep up with the old habits and the past versions of those hits, so new hits arise. New hits based on the previous hits come up, presented in a new modern way and with contemporary rhythm. What are the main elements that a contemporary producer absorbs from an old hit in order to make a remix and thus preserving through time which eventually classifies the track as classic?
