Dubstep is an evolving genre of electronic dance music, which originally originated in South London in the mid 1990s. It is typically characterised by spacy, arty, sparse rhythms with prominent, sub-level bass frequencies. The term “Dubstep” was first used by Peter Price & Alex da Silva in 1995 on their track ‘Dubplates’. Dubstep came about as a direct result of the movement away from techno and towards more experimental music styles such as house, hip hop, Gothic and noise music. The birth place of Dubstep could be traced back to the early reggae music and dance styles which utilised samples of other instruments and vocals in order to create unique, rhythmic sounds.
Dubstep got its name due to the producers like Skrillex & Diplo who were sampling old dubstep tracks and putting their own spin on them. It was then made available to the wider audience in the form of a CD. In the beginning, dubstep was used as a reaction to the synthetic, commercialized music of the time and represented a serious challenge to the industry. The sound samples used were fairly primitive at the time, but as the sound became more well known, artists and producers incorporated even more complex drum beats and changed the sound making process altogether.
Dubstep has become one of the most popular forms of electronic music, especially online. It has become so popular in fact that many major UK clubs have made Dubstep an integral part of their nightly music programs. Dubstep DJ’s has also gained mass popularity. Most club goers at clubs like Fabric, Craving Music and Fabric On Vinyl prefer to listen to Dubstep than any other type of music out there. One reason why this is the case is because of the distinct, hard-hitting sound that is characteristic of Dubstep.
Electronic music has come a long way since the early days of hip hop and rap, where production techniques were not very advanced. These genres were actually developed as sounds within hip hop and rap beats themselves. Now, electronic music makers are trying to blend these sounds together into one continuous track. This is what you hear when you hear Dubstep.
What is so great about dubstep? First of all, the sound is hard and solid. It has a beat that is not distracted by other sounds. These beats are consistent and don’t vary much from one artist to the next.
Another reason why it is so good is because it uses what is called “Dubstep Beats” that give the music a tough beat. These beats are what make Dubstep so appealing to so many listeners. They can sometimes be hard to find because they are only played on certain types of radios and websites. However, thanks to the Internet, you can easily download these beats and use them in your own productions. These beats are even royalty free, so you can use them as much as you want.
If you really want to get into electronic dance music, then you need some electronic equipment. One of the things that you should have is a mixer with an input for a keyboard. It is important that you know how to use this keyboard, because it will be your primary instrument. You will also want an extensive collection of Dubstep beats so that you can start mixing these songs. Finally, you will need an MP3 player that has a feature that allows it to record everything that is being played.
This is what you need to become an instant hit producer. Good luck! Enjoy! Dubstep!
