Do you know what Gabber is?

[Belzub]

I heard of a new type of music yesterday...

...mathcore

wtf

Mathcore is a variant on new-style hardcore which uses elements of jazz like insane time signiatures and dissonant chords combined with boring screamy vocals and silly haircuts to create a genre that most people should avoid.

 

[pidgeonhead]

Well do you?

Don't tell me, because i don't want to know.

But i do want to know if you know what it is.

Yes. It's crap.

Music for Dutch football hoolies with dodgy views on race, and a few British ketheads.

 

[foo]

Tosser.

Gabba = good in 30 minue bursts. Once you've heard 'Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Fucked my sister! Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker!Cocksucker! WOOOOORAGH!
BAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBABABAMBAMBAMBAM' repeated with sample changes 8 or so times it tends to pall a little...

'orrible nasty music.

or maybe i'm just too old - i like a bit of melody, a touch of harmony and something i can tap my toe to....

yep, i'm (happily in this case) too old.

 

[perplexis]

Yes, I know what it is.
Why are people arguing here, wasn't the OP's question clear enough ?

It's definitely not nazi music though

Lots of you are talking about Gabba. However, MightyAphrodite specifically asked about Gabber.

Read the question!

 

[rorymac]

Gabber is fuckin excellent

 

[topaz]

[sam/phallocrat]

Gabber/Gabba (same fuckin difference) is mint.

Incontrovertible fact.

 

[sam/phallocrat]

[poet]

philistine.

Playing shit, unimaginative hard house at 300bpm and adding bits of industrial noise maketh not good music, no matter how underground and webellious it all is.

 

[sam/phallocrat]

ok, ignorant philistine then

Playing shit, unimaginative hard house at 300bpm and adding bits of industrial noise maketh not good music, no matter how underground and webellious it all is.

If i were feeling picky i'd say you're talking about european hardcore techno rather than gabber/gabba...

 

[pilchardman]

Gabber/Gabba (same fuckin difference)

No it isn't. The word Gabber has an er sound at the end; the word Gabba doesn't.

 

[sam/phallocrat]

Yeah, as I said, same fuckin difference

 

[Wintermute]

Rotterdam takes it up the arse, do-da, do-da

 

[kakuma]

i fucking love gabba me

ATR were nearly gabba, and they was all about Anarchy in 1999 and RevolutionAction. so nothing to do with Nazis, thats like saying rock music is to do with Nazis

for some accesible gabba stuff, knifehandchop is yer man

but i did a recommend some gabba thread a few weeks ago which has some cracking recomendations on

geordie gabba mafia!!

 

[rorymac]

What does maketh good music and why not say make ? Swot language doesn't make you right. We don't fall for that one anymore IMO.

 

[pilchardman]

Yeah, as I said, same fuckin difference

No it isn't. The two words sound different.

 

[rorymac]

All swots are wronguns
Why?

 

[sam/phallocrat]

No it isn't. The two words sound different.

Exactly - same difference. Jeez . . .

 

[pilchardman]

[rutabowa]

Anyone else remember when one of the tabloids wrote a big article about how gabba clubs were full of Nazis and slagging off Loftgroover who ran a gabba night in London at the time, calling him a nazi etc. He wrote to them saying it was unlikely he was a Nazi given that he's black.

I once took a wrong turn at a Helter Skelter NYE rave in Skegness and had to walk through the gabber room. It's one of the most extreme experiences I've ever had in my life.

Not my cup of tea, but it looked as if everyone was enjoying themselves
