Ah nice, these didn't exist when I did my initial search for a place to post which is why I landed where I did. I am just apprehensive to carry on posting and trying to build something where there is no one actively controlling it which is why I thought Id jump onto this post and see what you had to say.

The realdubstep community you mentioned is definitely where what I have been posting would fit in best but if you aren't able to contact the owners of that either then there is no point in jumping ship.

I considered making a community on my home instance (fmhy) i just don't want there to be a million different communities that could confuse lemmy noobs when it is already a fairly niche subject in the grand scheme of things.

I remember reading about the possibilty of the instance owner being able to transfer ownership of a community, is that true? Could we get the dubstep communities on lemmy world under some active control?

Hey man, been lurking since you pretty much started posting, just dont have much to post myself.

I have however been posting over in - https://lemmy.ml/c/dubstep pretty much every single day just trying to build content as that is more my area.

I dont know who created it or who mods it but it is the only dubstep community i have found so far. Im trying to post content based on the proper "real" dubstep sound and not the robots fighting brostep sound. I dunno if you wanted to create a community on lemmy world instead I would be happy to move my posting over to there just to have some cohesion of instance where all these bass music based communities live but i would be happy to do so.

Either way keep up the good work over here and I'll keep posting regardless xD

I couldn't see it recommended anywhere which surprises me considering the hype around it when it first came out. This is the only game I have ever played that gave me a genuine feeling of unease throughout. Pretty sure it is free on steam too.

I have found most of the things I want through a combination of piratebay and 1337x for torrents, soulseek, librevox for old stuff and a library app. I have then mirrored what I have got via torrents up on to soulseek.

I have recently been using the scribd free trial so might be worth checking there, they do a 30 day free trial then when you go to cancel the sub they will offer an additional 30 days free too.

https://lemmy.ml/c/dubstep I have been posting over here, if you like some dubstep come join in :D

Also https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/trap here for some trap.

I have been using soulseek for the last 6 months without port forwarding and plenty of people have downloaded a lot of stuff from me, however I have just switched to airvpn as well and can confirm now have port forwarding so Im hoping more people can access my files!

I absolutely do where I can but when a lot of stuff gets released within the scene I am into on a dead inferior format (vinyl) exclusively then I am absolutely going to pirate that shit if I can.

Found this looking for a beatmatch or dj community. Did you have any luck finding any?

Beatmatch specifically was great as it wasn't as gate keepy in my experience.

God I am sick of remakes and remasters of all the same old shit.

I use Asgard along with real debrid which will populate your search results with torrents as well as other results and has been working well for me for a while now.

Same! I look through my uploaded list and read what other people are getting from me with a warm fuzzy feeling!

In a similar vein people on soulseek who have all their files locked unless you trade with them, particularly the ones who want gift vouchers and shit like that I feel goes against the community spirit of piracy as a whole. If I get hold of something rare or that has broken street date i'm excited to share it with others who may no be able to get it for whatever reason.

Really pisses me off scrolling through my search results seeing loads of lock symbols with user info listing demands that must be met for you to be oh so privaledged enough to receive a right to download from them. It goes against what I grew up knowing piracy to be, I'm guessing I am a similar age to you though.

And to all you soulseek users listing locked files with lists of demands to access them. Fuck you.
