LMFAO you cant argue with me at ALL dude.




Stating my opinion, brah. Your OP was so full of over the top dick sucking it was painful to read. Bassnectar is easily the most overrated producer of electronic music in the world (wait, maybe that's deadmau5, close though) right now.

His music is hard, fast and distorted. It lacks subtlety, depth, and originality. Then again, your average bro music listener could care less about these things. Which is exactly why bassnectar is so popular. As I heard someone else put it once, his music is lowest common denominator music.

i highly doubt youve ever seen bassnectar live. youre probably a snobby jam band hippy who thinks PHISH is awesome.




Do you now? I watched him for about 20 minutes once before wandering away.

You shouldn't have to eat L to fully enjoy a show or really understand an artist, just saying.

That picture speaks for itself. It's one of the main reasons I hate attending electronic shows. Rolly polly kids are fucking annoying.

Sounds like you've never seen Tipper, SOTEG, Skeetaz, Vibesquad or Break Beat Buddha. Shit Break Beat Buddha taught Loren everything he knows. If Bassnectar is the best you've seen of this kind of music you haven't seen nothin yet. Plus his shows are full of annoying teeny boppers. :thumbdown:

EOTO is so much better than Bassnectar imo. Check them out. Each show is completely improvised, nothing prerecorded, all done live. The nectar is simply, like stated above, plain, ordinary, and most of all, easily appealing to the masses, which further emphasizes his lack of complexity while displaying his ability to produce simple music for simple minds. Most of the people I know who are really into music dislike Bassnectar because of that. I think he is one of those artists who is simply fun, nothing more. It's not like I'd go to his show to analyze and dissect the music. There's nothing really to it. IMO he's just another producer in the same worn out groove.

edit: I don't mean to hate on you and spoil your fun. You like what you like. I just believe there is much better music out there

You're the one saying no one will understand why Bassnectar is good until you drop acid at the show.. plenty of music I don't like would sound just fine if I'm tripping hard enough, so I don't understand that statement.

Have you been to many other shows? What about Phish, since you're putting them down? I've been to plenty of jam band shows as well as sound tribe and lotus shows. I hate wompy/bass music, so no matter how much L I could take it wouldn't make me enjoy the show more. Have you seen Bassnectar sober yet?

If this thread is going to turn into a "my band is better than your band" argument, it's going to be pointless. But don't expect everyone else to love BN just because you had an amazing time tripping at his show.

Agree with this only sometimes. His younger work is much more nectar heavy (that's a pretty good word for the spaced out, insane high notes and samples he drops in,) but then again his bass work can be amazing.

I've seen him 3 times now, and from my understanding some nights he's going off with the atmosphere and others are more about the bass. Highly depends on the crowd though, he uses a lot of their energy in his performances. Better crowd will have a much better vibe.

Well that honestly depends on what you mean by "complex and raw." It's all subjective, but I can understand where people who have no idea what he's doing, think he's just pushing buttons. Ultimately it's laptop dj'ing, but completely different from what your concept of it is.

His productions are insane, and for that I respect him. His live shows are a spiritual and emotional adventure, and that's why I love him. It's not about whether you care for his music, he isn't making it for you to enjoy. He's doing it because he feels it inside him.

You might think I'm joking, but you honestly would go off and say the same thing (and plenty of people have,) about bands like Grateful Dead and Pink Floyd or whatever. To him it's his calling and he's making the music to fuel his soul.

also highly agree with this, alot of what Bassnectar produces is very scenster, or more digestible to the dub and EDM masses. And it's totally apparent in the family photos he takes at every show. But still, the entire fucking jam band/festival crowd is full of scensters. So what's the difference? (speaking to bait_ here.)




I'd also like to point out that, you don't need drugs to enjoy a show...I've seen him sober and left in a very altered state of mind. Has anyone had the chance to see him at Burning Man? You would understand where I'm coming from.
