What the fuck is Dubstep?
by 3rr0r 4O4 July 31, 2018
A genre of electronic music that is typically 140 BPM with a half time kick and snare drum pattern.
Dubstep originated in the early 2000's in London. A combination of Dub, which is very similar to what most people call Reggae, and 2-Step Garage, which is where the heavy bass elements of Dubstep come from.
Dubstep today is very different from when it first originated. People unhappy with this "evolution" decide to call it apart from the Dubstep they know and love with the name Brostep.
As a person who enjoys both "types" of dubstep it is hard to put a label on them. The only thing upsetting about this genre is the amount of hate and ignorance that goes back and forth between people who discuss it.

a high form of music with abundant amounts of sub bass. not to be confused with brostep, which is an abomination.

Dubstep is the result of sounds that are produced after dumping spoons, forks, other cutlery, your neighbor’s cat, a car’s engine, nails, hammers, and a WHOLE chalkboard into a blender. Then, having someone play an electronic nose flute while his buddy throws a speaker out of a window. Compile all those sounds together while turning the volume up to 200 decibels. This will break the sound barrier and your eardrums will literally be obliterated. Major bleeding will occur. Contact an ENT IMMEDIATELY after listening.
