Oh come on, Dub Step Rap Metal has been done before... Korn is basically what that is... Just because you're not CALLING it dubstep doesn't mean it doesn't have the dubstep feel. Interesting, also, that you chose dubstep here, because that's a genre that's been basically "raped" in a similar way to what has been done to the ideas in object-orientism in order to get it into the mainstream :) People think dubstep is just a wobble bass... but it's actually more about the feel of the dub break... <shrug> Julian _______________________________________________ fonc mailing list fonc@vpri.org http://vpri.org/mailman/listinfo/fonc
