The Future of Dubstep Music
In the 2010s, dubstep was frequently used as a drop in many different types of electronic dance music. The style continued to grow in popularity, with DJs and producers often experimenting with different sounds and tempos. In 2015, dubstep music underwent a bit of a renaissance, with many artists pushing the genre in new and innovative directions.
One of the most influential dubstep tracks of 2015 was “UMA” by British producer Alix Perez. The track, which was released on Perez’s “Shades of Light” EP, featured a dark, atmospheric sound that was quite different from anything else that had been released in the genre up to that point. “UMA” helped to cement Perez as one of the most innovative producers in dubstep and paved the way for other artists to experiment with similar sounds.
Another key track from 2015 was “Inertia” by American duo Darkside. The track, which was released on Darkside’s critically acclaimed album “Psychic”, incorporated elements of techno and house into its dubstep foundation, resulting in a unique and catchy sound. “Inertia” received widespread support from DJs and fans alike, solidifying Darkside as one of the leading forces in progressive dubstep.
Finally, Canadian producer Zeds Dead released their track “Collapse 2.0” in 2015, which featured vocals from Memorecks. The track signified a shift towards a more melodic sound in dubstep, compared to the previous year’s releases which tended to be darker and more atmospheric. “Collapse 2.0” would go on to become one of Zeds Dead’s most popular tracks, cementing their place as one of the biggest names in dubstep music.
