...in your opinion?
dunno
producers will get frustrated with the fact they're makin fuck all money for their hardwork, especially in the dnb scene
all genres of music can be found on soulseek and the most you can viably sell a tune is £1-£2 on mp3, or £5-£7 on vinyl but you don't make loads profit back, so u gotta sell a hell of a lot of tunes to make it seem worthwhile
its worrying, dunno what the future holds, vinyl is still selling but for how long who knows...bigup the people still supportin the cause though, without you, our scene would be in big limbo
I'm gunna try and put a sensible answer down. But i can't promise anything.
It'll prbably be the same.
The top 40 will look exactly the same as is does now, only with different artists. But with the same sounds ect..
The occasional apperance by a Dubstep/DnB producer sneaking into teh 30th spot.
DnB will be the same pretty much.
Whatever is 'chosen' as teh dancefloor pick, then EVERYONE will copy that particular sound, like they have done recently, with teh Hazard sound (if ya get me).
No digs here, i like it. but it's true.
You'll still have your sub genres that occassionaly get played out inna clubs because 'it's cool'.
Which is a shame, because they should get played on the merit of it being a good tune, not because all teh little kiddies love off it for a month. But hey.
Andy C will get back to playing a full on late 90's set that everyone under the age of 20 will hate. But will be loved off by me and the rest of the sane people.
TC will make a comeback and will be laughed back into the DnB wilderness after releasing his 20th remix of Rockstar, which is now called cockstar.
Dubstep will fade away into the distance because people will finally realise that a) you can't rave to it, and b)it's utter shite.
Ed Rush will find the lost DAT tape of Alien Girl and finally get it a re-press, of which i will buy 20 copies, and probably cry with joy.
Dom will release another tonk album that will get little love from the 'big' DJ's becasue it's too dark. But will still get some love from Bailey, because Bailey's a dappa.
And finally, i will be 30 an wonder what happened to my hairline.
jump up will become one LFO fart sound
Dubstep will DEFINITELY fade away. As a genre I havent really seen it progress apart from reggae/dub sounding stuff into wobble crap. I don't see any subgenres emerging for it.
Dunno about dnb, hopefully it will be as strong as ever in 20 years or something.

I don't agree, I agree with the wobble part it hasnt progressed. What about the chainsaw sound which is getting lots and lots of love atm. Exicision, Datsik, Reso, 16Bit (not that I like it) but its definitly different and much more agressiv then other dubstep subgenres. Dubstep is pretty huge in the UK... I've been told... whereas everywhere else nobody knows about dubstep the groups/promoters are builded right now, people are more and more interested in dubstep (you just see it at the amount of dnb dj's playing other kinda of music in their set). I really doubt it will fade away in the next couple of years and I think it has still big potential even tho, as someone already said, It's barely danceable.
