Rave

Dubstep (/ˈdʌbstɛp/) is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in south London, England. Its overall sound has been described as "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals".

Or as I like to call it "Bass in your Face".

I am currently sitting at my lovely remote desk listening to the walls and pipes shake as artist, Skrillex gets down on his electronic toys. This type of show is know in the industry has a "rave". However, it is not P.C. to call it this, as the term "Rave" has negative meaning. Rather we are supposed to call it an "Electronic Music Concert". Now doesn't that just roll of the tongue nicely.

"Electronic Music Concert" seems like something a family of five might go to see, complete with popcorn refreshments, light show, and warm fuzzy entertainment. Well don't let the million dollar phrase fool you. It is an in your face dance party. The beat will still be pounding through your head and chest the next day (and for these weekday Ravers, at school/work).

What does one wear to a "EMC"? Nothing would be a close guess. Maybe it is because they know they will be dancing up a storm and don't care to fuss with the pesty sweat marks, or maybe it is an unspoken competiton to our skank the next. Other very popular items include glitter, glow sticks, and neon under garmets.

Clearly, I rave.
