A lot of Dubstep fans would say Skrillex isn't Dubstep though. After about 2008 more and more of this bassy shit was made and that was the stuff that became really well known. There's some of it on Benga's album I mentioned before (26 Basslines). Can't think of single tracks atm, but that style.

I've just put Archangel on (Burial track) and I can hear the clear Garage influence (Step), tbh I'm shit at trying to describe genres effectively, but I would say Burial is definitely stereotypical Dubstep.

Can you hear the similarities between Burial and that (drum pattern) ^

Either tell me about dubstep' history, or point me in the right direction. I needs to know. Not really. But whatevs Give it up.

The fact that Skrillex is associated with dubstep is a testament to how things get watered down and crappy once they reach a critical mass. Check out this thread for some great background on the style and for some actual good quality dubstep from back before if became all about cartoonish bass wobbles.

I like John Adams and I can listen to Wagner, but mostly I'm in the same boat.

I remember when I talked about how I had a range of music that I didn't like to listen to and several members spent a week trying to tell me how close-minded I was.

Gee how this forum changes

I don't listen to much soul or R&B, but I haven't explored the genre much.

I can give you some '60s (and '70s to some extent) soul recs if you want. I like to think I know a decent amount.
