The word to describe dubstep where there is double time going on within the double time nature of the track (ie. for a 160BPM track, it sounds like 80BPM and 40BPM simultaneously)

Also lends itself to quatrestep and cinqstep where in cinqstep, successive 2 time patterns of musical features give rise to a '4 beat 16 bar' pattern. This will fuse with Jazz and Blues in the early 2020s to form a genre known as 'Cinqstep blue.'
Man this dubstep is heavy, its like there is an extra layer of drum pattern, its like tribstep man!

Tristephilia 

The appreciation, attraction, or affinity for melancholic or sad feelings, moods, or expressions, often manifesting in a fondness for art, music, or experiences that evoke a sense of sorrow or contemplation.
Sophie appreciates the beauty in sadness, finding solace in literature and music that evoke deep emotions. Her friends affectionately tease her, affectionately labeling her an unmistakable tristephilia enthusiast.

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
