Liquid Dubstep 

The sub-genre of dub-step referring to peaceful and non-aggressive electronic noise made rhythmically over a slow drum.

-Most like "chillstep, and Liquid Drum&Bass"

-Often times with good headphones, the sound feels to move around you in 3-D, setting the same mood as Mozart, a peaceful night under the stars, or even relaxing in a hottub.

Vocals often times, Female.

Type Liquid Dubstep into youtube, and you'll find a whole new world.. Google it you find less.

A good song is Flight Facilities - Crave You (Adventure Club Dubstep Remix)

Dubstep 

Simply, a genre of Electronic Dance Music based around a non-straightened half-step beat, wherein a bass-drum (kick) will often (but not always) play on the first downbeat and a mid-range percussion (snares, claps, etc.) playing on the third downbeat, with variations to this skeleton beat. It is often produced around 140BPM, but can go as low as 128 or even as high as 145, there is no real set BPM.

Sometimes it is said to be a downtempo genre but this is simply a misunderstanding of the concept of a half-step beat.

LFO modulated low and midrange basslines are not essential to the genre and alot of dubstep productions do not even incorporate them (e.g. Nero - Reaching Out, Bassnectar Remix - Ellie Goulding - Lights), and actually originated from it's origins in 2-step garage and Dub Reggae, and can be found in DnB and House.

Expanding on this, frequently, alot of songs that aren't Dubstep are referred to as Dubstep, mainly due to incorporating alot of features (LFO-Modded Bass, Dirty FM Synthesis Mid-Range, etc.) associated with Dubstep.

There is no specific feel to dubstep. It can be thrashy, heavy and dirty (e.g. Skrillex, Excision, etc.) or melodic, euphoric and trancey (e.g. Seven Lions, Xilent, etc.), or moody, relaxing and chill (e.g. Skream, Bassnectar, etc.). It can incorporate elements of a variety of different genres ranging from Trance and DnB to Hip-Hop and Nu-Metal, and the reverse is also true.

Purist: ERRMAHGAWD "SKRILLEX - SCARY MONSTERS" IZH NOT DUBSTEP

Person who understands what Dubstep is: It has a half-step beat, and is roughly around the tempo of 140, it's dubstep, even if you don't like it, which i definitely don't, but i won't lie that it doesn't fall into the genre.

Your Grandfather: STOP PLAYING THAT DUBSTEP CRAP.

You: Heatbeat is not Dubstep grandpa, they are electro-trance, but it's obvious you can't tell the difference.

Dubstep Blue Balls 

A phenomenon that occurs when listening to a sweet dubstep song, and for one reason or another the song is cut off right before the breakdown, as the bass is about to drop.

Everyone at the party got dubstep blue balls because the neighbors shut off the power.
