Dubstep

A unusual style of music with a 2 beat "pulsing" rhythm. Many "dubstep" fans are mislead into thinking that dubstep is just about the bass, and everything with a slight electronic sound or dubstep's "signature" feature, "wubs" is dubstep. In reality, however, bass doesn't really matter much, and dubstep doesn't entirely rely on electronics.

dubstep

Dubstep - Dubstep is music centred around bass.

It draws on many musical influences. Such influences include, dub, reggae, d'n'b, jungle, UK garage, grime, techno and IDM.

Usually around 140bpm in tempo, the unifying sounds within dubstep are always bass and sub-bass.

The music ranges in style from melodious instrumentals to dark, techy and distorted numbers.

Many UK grime mc's also mc over dubstep tracks, although grime and dubstep should not be confused.

Dubstep is usually mellow and generally has a well paced structure to each song. Grime beats are generally more disjointed, the overall production level being grittier than that in dubstep.
Several dubstep producers, labels and radios etc - D.D.S, Nex Level Records, Hench, SubFM etc
