Genetix Music: Dubstep’s Only One Guy Now

Since the passing of Genetix, the dubstep community has been in mourning. He was not only one of the genre’s most prolific and well-known producers, but also one of its only remaining pioneers. In a way, his death has left dubstep in a state of limbo, with no one quite sure where to go from here.

The Rise and Fall of Dubstep

Dubstep was once a genre of music that was on the rise. It was unique, and it had a sound that was unlike anything else that was out there. however, now, it seems like dubstep is on its way out.

The early days of dubstep

In the early 2000s, dubstep was a fresh and exciting new sound. Artists like Burial, Skream, and Benga were pushing the boundaries of electronic music, and the genre was quickly gaining popularity.

However, by the 2010s, dubstep had become stagnant. The same tired sounds were being recycled over and over again, and the once-innovative genre was starting to feel stale.

Fortunately, there are still a few dubstep producers out there who are keeping the genre alive. Guido, Mount Kimbie, and Joy Orbison are just a few of the artists keeping dubstep fresh and exciting.

The fall of dubstep

In the late 2000s, dubstep began to be increasingly exposed to North America through the success of British record label Tempa’s artists such as Kode9, Burial and Skream. North American DJs and producers such as Dave Q, Plastician, Sleigh Bells and Spank Rock began to infuse dubstep with their own local cultures and sounds. This process was given further impetus by the success of two cross-over hits in 2008 and 2009: “Push It” by British grime artist Skepta which samples Plastician’s “”,” Ich Will” by German electronic duo Wassermann which samples Skream’s “Rottan”. These tracks opened up dubstep to a whole new audience who were not previously aware of the genre.

In 2010, American producer Rusko released his self-titled debut album which was heavily influenced by dubstep. The album was a commercial success and propelled Rusko to international stardom. His success marked the beginning of a new era for dubstep in which the genre became increasingly mainstream. Thisnew era was short-lived however, as by 2012 the mainstream appeal of dubstep had begun to wane. In 2013, several high-profile dubstep producers such as deadmau5 and Skrillex announced that they were moving away from the genre, signalling its decline.

Genetix Music

Genetix is a dubstep artist who has been making music since 2010. He is one of the few artists in the genre who is still active. Genetix’s music is characterized by its heavy bass and intricate sound design.

The only one guy now

In 2012, a photographer named Chris Parkhurst took a series of portraits of dubstep producers in their studios. The pictures were striking: each artist was totally alone, lost in their own world, with just their computer and music equipment for company.

At the time, it was a fair representation of the dubstep scene. The genre had exploded in popularity in the early 2010s, but it was still very much an underground movement, made up of small producers working independently.

Now, just a few years later, the scene has changed beyond recognition. The biggest dubstep artists are now mainstream superstars, and the genre has been absorbed into the mainstream pop world. But despite all this success, there is only one producer left who can truly be called a dubstep artist: Genetix.

Genetix is the pseudonym of Jack Williams, a 23-year-old producer from London. He started making dubstep in 2010, when he was just 17 years old. Since then, he’s released two albums and a handful of EPs and singles, all on his own label, Genetix Music.

In many ways, Genetix is the last link to the early days of dubstep. His music retains the dark atmosphere and heavy basslines that defined the genre in its early years. But at the same time, his productions are slick and polished, with catchy melodies and huge drops that would sound at home on any mainstream pop radio station.

It’s this combination of old and new that has made Genetix one of the most exciting producers in electronic music today. And it’s also what makes him unique: there is no other artist making music quite like him right now.

The future of dubstep

With the recent passing of influential dubstep artist Skream, some are wondering what the future of the genre holds. While there is no clear answer, it seems that dubstep is at a crossroads.

On one hand, the death of Skream – and the retirement of other key figures such as Benga and Distance – has left a void in the scene. This has led some to question whether dubstep can continue to exist without its pioneers.

On the other hand, there is still a strong community of dubstep producers and fans who are keeping the genre alive. And with the rise of newer artists such as Flume and Alison Wonderland, it seems that dubstep is evolving into something new – even if it is no longer strictly “dubstep.”

Only time will tell what the future of dubstep holds. But one thing is for sure: the genre has come a long way since its humble beginnings in South London.
