Christian Music Promo Goes Dubstep – A look at how Christian music is changing with the times by embracing new styles like dubstep.

Introduction

With the popularity of electronic dance music (EDM) on the rise, it was only a matter of time before the Christian music industry would try to get in on the action. And that’s exactly what happened recently when a major Christian music label released a dubstep remix of one of their songs.

The original song, which was a mellow ballad about God’s love, has been drastically transformed into an up-tempo, bass-heavy track that is sure to get listeners moving. Some Christian music fans have welcomed the new sound, saying that it’s a fresh take on faith-based music. Others, however, are not so sure.

There is no doubt that the dubstep remix is catchy and will appeal to many young people who are fans of EDM. But some Christians worry that the new sound is too worldly and may lead people away from the message of the song.

Only time will tell how successful the dubstep remix will be, but one thing is for sure: it’s certainly not your typical Christian music!

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 bass lines that contain prominent sub-bass frequencies. The style emerged as a development within the post-dubstep and grime music scenes.

The history of dubstep

The history of dubstep is often told through the stories of two glaciers- original dubstep and brostep. In the early days of dubstep, artists were influenced by two-step garage, jungle, and other forms of UK dance music. These artists pushed the boundaries of their genre by incorporating elements from these other genres, resulting in a sound that was both unique and exciting. This new sound caught on quickly, and soon dubstep was being played in clubs all over the UK.

However, as dubstep became more popular, some artists began to commercially exploit it by making what is now known as “brostep”- a more aggressive and bass-heavy form of dubstep that is more geared towards mainstream appeal. This commercialization of the genre led to a lot of backlash from purists, who felt that it was watering down the sound of true dubstep.

Today, there is still a debate between fans of original dubstep and brostep, but at its core, dubstep is a genre that is constantly evolving and changing. Whether you prefer its original form or its more commercialized incarnation, there’s no denying that dubstep is one of the most exciting and innovative genres of electronic music today.

The influence of dubstep

The influence of dubstep in popular music has been growing steadily over the past few years. More and more artists are incorporating elements of dubstep into their music, and the genre is becoming increasingly popular with young people.

Christian music is no exception. Many Christian artists have begun to experiment with dubstep, and the results have been very interesting. Some Christian music promoters have even begun to specialize in dubstep-influenced music, and the genre is beginning to gain a foothold in the Christian music scene.

There are a few things that make dubstep particularly well-suited to Christian music. First of all, it is a very powerful and emotive genre of music, which can be used to convey both joy and sorrow. Secondly, it is a very flexible genre, which allows artists to experiment with different sounds and styles. Lastly, it is a relatively new genre, which means that there is still a lot of untapped potential in terms of its use in Christian music.

As the popularity of dubstep continues to grow, we can expect to see more and more Christian artists experiment with the genre. It will be interesting to see what direction they take it in, and how they use it to convey their faith.

The rise of dubstep

In recent years, dubstep has become one of the most popular genres of electronic dance music. The genre is characterized by its heavy basslines and syncopated rhythms, and it often features samples of other genres of music, such as hip hop, grime, and garage.

Christian music producers have begun to experiment with the genre, creating tracks that are meant to appeal to a wider audience than traditional Christian music. These tracks often feature Christian lyrics set to a dubstep beat, and they often contain elements of other genres as well, such as rap and EDM.

Dubstep-influenced Christian music is still a relatively new phenomenon, but it is already beginning to gain traction within the Christian music industry. In 2016, the Gospel Music Association nominated a dubstep-influenced track for a Dove Award, and several Christian radio stations have begun to play dubstep-influenced tracks.

As the genre continues to grow in popularity, it is likely that we will see more and more Christian artists experiment with dubstep in their music.

The future of dubstep

There is no doubt that dubstep has taken the world by storm. Originally a niche genre, it has now broken into the mainstream and is enjoyed by people of all ages and backgrounds.

While some purists may resist the change, it is undeniable that dubstep is here to stay. As such, it is important for Christian artists to stay ahead of the curve and embrace this new style of music.

Dubstep offers a unique opportunity for Christian artists to reach a new audience. Bypromoting their music through this popular genre, they can spread the Gospel to those who may not have otherwise been exposed to it.

There are a few things to keep in mind when creating dubstep-influenced Christian music. First and foremost, the focus should be on the message, not the music itself. The goal is to evangelize, not to simply make a catchy song.

Second, due to its heavy emphasis on bass, dubstep can be very loud and aggressive. As such, it is important to use discretion when incorporating it into Christian music. The last thing we want is for our message to be lost in a cacophony of noise.

Finally, dubstep presents an interesting challenge when it comes to lyrics. Because the genre is so experimental, traditional rhyming schemes often don’t work as well. This can be frustrating for songwriters, but it also presents an opportunity to get creative and think outside the box.

All in all, dubstep is a here to stay and Christian artists would be wise to embrace it. By doing so, they can reach a whole new generation with the Gospel message.
