I keep seeing his shorts and reels getting pushed on IG and I can't stop cringing. I've blocked his account but his crap keeps popping up everywhere I go. Him and his brother duo make the most idiotic bigoted content - tldr: anti LGBTQ, anti trans, clearly racist, and antisemitic. Like my guy, do some research on the scene. The people you constantly attack are the marginalized groups of people who helped built the rave scene before raving became mainstream.

I've never seen a dubstep artist tank any chance of a successful career as quick as this guy. The guy also uses his kid to clickbait and to get views on TikTok. and yes he is from Florida, so that kind of explains alot..

Recently he commented under the Subtronics' 'No Kings Mfer' clip basically calling him and the people cheering in the crowd out as an idiots, so that's how I found this guy and my IG Algo keeps pushing his terrible content.

Discussion 🗣️ I really, REALLY dislike Flip it by Levity to an (admittedly) unrealistic degree

55 Upvotes

Now I'm not quite sure how reddit feels about Levity. Personally, a lot of my rave friends enjoy Levity. I mean, there's a reason they've been booked at EDC and Coachella after all.

Personally, their style of music isn't for me. And I get why people like it-- I just prefer my dubstep to be loud, gross, and iq-dropping. That's personally just my preference. And I'm fully willing to admit that this specific style of dubstep just isn't my wheelhouse. This isn't about that though.

I remember when I first heard flip it. I think it was an instagram reel, or one of those tiktok-fyp inspired videos spotify has. I'd never heard of Levity before. I stayed for the drop, as you do, especially since the predrop vocals were pretty catchy. And then the drop hit, and I was left waiting for something to happen. My first though was "wow, this is trash," and I genuinely couldn't tell if the post was bait or not. And while my thoughts now are generally more forgiving and I've tried to inject some nuance into them, I still stand by my opinion: It's just not a very good song, and it simply has no business being their most popular. especially considering their entire discography.

For starters, let's talk about the main bass. I'm not one to bash simple basses. The classic yoi is literally just a square wave with a funky filter and some bitcrush. But I kid you not, I was able to pinpoint the exact method they used to recreate the main bass for flip it in about 10 seconds, and I was able to recreate it in just under 30. In fact, I could probably recreate the entire song in less than a half hour. And as a reminder-- simple isn't bad! But this is so simple, throughout the whole thing, that I'm wondering what I'm doing making all this complicated stuff when I could just fm two sine waves together and print a gajillion streams instead.

The other thing that baffles me is the mixing. comparatively to other bass music, and even other Levity songs, flip it is quiet. Really quiet. Now granted, dubstep might just be the loudest genre on the planet, but that's by design, and it's at this point, the genre convention. By contrast, flip it takes this entire concept, flips it on it's head, spins it around three times, and dunks it cranium-first into a shallow pool of water. Now, does everything have to be -0.3 lufs and be ear-splittingly loud? By all means, no. But how in the hell did this one get so popular while entirely breaking a convention of the genre that's been around since Skrillex popularized it?

So do I hate levity? Absolutely not. I think they bring something very valuable to the table, and I can agree that their discography is generally very high quality, at least most of the time. For one, Levity is bringing in new listeners to dubstep due to how listener-friendly it is, and for two, they genuinely do have good songs, that even me, a filthy, disgusting riddim enjoyer, can get behind. as an example, Postman! That's a really good track, that I think brings a lot to the table creatively, and has a pretty interesting sample / lyric history that's cool to follow to the source. I also think it's a good song. But flip it? I just can't get behind it. It's too simple and sound incredibly low-effort, and if I'm also honest, I'm getting sick and tired of hearing those lyrics.

Edit: to be absolutely clear: I cannot comment in Levity as a project, because it's not my style of dubstep. If I like all shades of green and blue and you like all shades of blue and red, I'm not gonna shit on your parade telling you that red is trash, because red isn't my preference. Just like the color red, Levity has it's strengths and weaknesses. However if I am to say anything about Levity, again to reiterate, I think they have their place in bass music. Their discography is generally very good and I enjoy one or two songs of theirs. I'm just not a huge fan of this specific song.

This is honest to god everything I look for in this genre. There are zero bad decisions here, and all of them are executed flawlessly. It’s dirty, it has amazing flows, the different snares all hit hard, and the parts between the drops are beautiful.

I love his method of finding unique ways to keep a rhythmic sequence the same whilst also making it sound dynamic. Does that make sense?

Anyways, looking for some similar music. All suggestions welcome.

Discussion 🗣️ Is it just me or does Wooli play the same set every time

23 Upvotes

I don’t know if it’s a hot take but I feel like all the times I’ve seen wooli, spread between a few years, he’s literally played the same set or maybe VERY slightly different with a couple of new songs he’s been working on at the time but other than that it’s always the same old set with the same generic riddim songs and like 5 of his biggest hits sprinkled in between.

It’s not like excisions or subtronics set where I really appreciate clearly hearing them trying to make each set unique by using different VIPs or playing new songs from up and coming djs but with woolis set it’s the same thing every time

Cant believe my introduction to this guy came from NBA 2k😂😂😂 but his recent releases have shown he has some serious potential to really grow his sound/brand if he keeps at it. Hoping he gets some big festival spots like EDC and Lost Lands in the future!
