Recently I've been listening to a lot of Drum and Bass type music. Pendulum is my favorite and some of their songs can be classified as dubstep, but most of their stuff is drum and bass. I've also been listening to Lamb, Ratatat, and of course Glitch Mob. I usually can't stand dubstep or anything like it, but these bands are a few acceptions that dont sound like wub-wub garbage, but actually sound like music and not a computer in overload. I like Pendulum a lot because unlike a lot of drum and bass/dubstep bands, they actually use instruments and don't overdo the techno computer sounds. Like, most drum and bass bands use the computer to play the actual bass line and drums itself which totally kills the purpose of drum and bass music. In Pendulum, they play the actual drums and bass, and the drummer goes at such incredible speeds it's hard to believe it is not a computer looping it the whole way through. Not only that, but they play a wide range of instruments throughout their songs, with very limited techno sounds, which I really like, cause it's authentic and it sounds good.
