If you want to get technical... this will be hard to explain (sorry in advance)

Rap / house beats are on 4 measures: Kick - Snare - Kick - Snare ... (80 - 130 bpm)

Dubstep goes: Kick - (nothing) - Snare - (nothing)

at like (140- 160 bpm) it sounds slow because the drum miss's a beat (in lemans) but really the track is going fast like drum n bass.

Personally I think its a really fun sort of arrangement to play with in any music... I notice a lot of producer use it now days when I try to beat map there music.

Bassnectar was at the kanrocksas festival I went to this weekend. Friday and saturday after the headliners Eminem and Muse played they had this stage that just played dubstep and techno till like 3 or 4 in the morning.

Idk if I would listen to that shit too much but It's pretty good party music though..... Grab a girl and get down lol

None of the dubstep tracks posted in this thread are even remotely close to trance, rave, or drum n bass. In fact, none of it really gives the listener a good idea of what dubstep ACTUALLY is. Like someone said, its morphed so much over the last 5 years, thats its all muddled now. Hell, one could even say that Gucci Gucci by Kreayshawn is "dubstep".
