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 reggae. In the early 2000s, dubstep began to evolve away from these influences, becoming more characterized by a heavier, more thwomping central bassline often accompanied by complex drum patterns with frequent syncopated percussive accents on top. This dependence on sub-bass frequencies gave dubstep its cannonading bass sound.
