What is dubstep?

Dubstep is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in South London in the late 1990s. It is generally characterized by sparse, syncopated rhythmic patterns with prominent sub-bass frequencies. The style emerged as an offshoot of UK garage, drawing on a lineage of related styles such as 2-step and dub music. In the early 2000s, dubstep emerged as a commercialized international style via the establishment of “rue” scenes in London, Bristol and other cities throughout Europe and North America.

The dubstep music scene

The dubstep music scene is a growing subgenre of electronic dance music that originated in the early 2000s in the United Kingdom. It is characterized by a heavy bass sound and often features distorted or processed vocal samples. The style has gained popularity in recent years, especially in the US, and has been featured in mainstream songs and concerts.

The rise of dubstep

In the early 2000s, a new style of electronic dance music began to emerge in the underground clubs of London. This new sound, which would come to be known as dubstep, was characterized by its heavy basslines and glitchy, chopped-up beats.

Dubstep quickly began to gain popularity in the UK, and by the mid-2000s, it had begun to make its way across the Atlantic to the US. In 2010, dubstep finally broke into the mainstream with the release of Skrillex’s debut album, Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites.

Since then, dubstep has continued to evolve, incorporating elements from other genres such as hip-hop and trap. Today, it is one of the most popular genres of electronic dance music.

The fall of dubstep

By 2010, dubstep had begun to enter the mainstream consciousness in the United Kingdom, with artists such as Magnetic Man and Katy B releasing commercial hits. In the same year, American Skrillex popularized the genre in the United States with his track “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites”. However, by 2013, dubstep had fallen out of favor with the mainstream listener due to its dark, repetitive nature and lack of melody.
