That's just a really good tune.
But yeah, I think everyone's doing their own thing in their own little sub-scenes with little concern for what's going on outside it and it's been this way for a while now. You have Hotflush going more and more towards the poppy bass music side of things, Hyperdub concentrating on funky, Swamp 81 doing the 808 electro/ghetto house thing and Deep Medi, Box Clever etc sticking to the classic dubstep sound - all with little apparent regard for what the other is doing.
There've been artists that have switched over from one sound to another (Joy O, Jamie Vex'd & Scuba going in opposite directions from where they started), but those felt more like personal artistic choices rather than a reaction to what's going on in the scene...although you could argue that Joy O got done with the "Hyph Mango" sound after getting sick of hearing a new clone every day since its release.
I guess what I'm saying is that we already do have unified, if not exactly potent, sub scenes and I find it highly unlikely these separate strands will ever come together and be anything more than acquaintances. At the same time, I don't think any of these sub scenes will ever fully take over and become the de facto definition of "bass music" either. The 808 stuff has been around for a while now and been pushed by guys you could define as popular (Boddika, Jon Convex, Addison Groove), but unless Swamp 81 decides to release an EP every two weeks, I don't see it happening. It may reach a certain height that it hasn't reached yet, but eventually it'll plateau out very quickly like every other sub scene because, despite being enjoyable, there's nothing "new" about it.
Personally, I would love it if the darker, percussive shit takes over because I find most of the colourful, cut up rnb vocal stuff more cold and vibeless than *insert IDM artist* at its most clinical.... it all sounds so plastic and calculated to me despite (or maybe because of) trying so hard to be "emotional". But I'm in the minority here because not only do a lot of listeners love this, but so do critics...I thought of calling it "Pitchfork Approved Bass Music" but that's not only being reductive, but also inaccurate because RA and Fact and every other proper dance music publication usually eats this shit up as well. I guess it just comes down to taste, which is why I actually like the option of disparate sounds within one scene. It may not be good for the scene itself, but it gives listeners more options - like I'm not into the newer Hotflush stuff at all (I found the Sepalcure album unbearable and the newer Scuba stuff boring), but I can easily ignore it because I have so many other options within the same vaguely defined genre. But if Hotflush was the defining sound of bass music and everyone else sounded like them or used a similar template, I'd most likely gravitate away from the scene and look for something else. By being so splintered in terms of sound, this scene ends up having something for everybody.
