Beginning of Dubstep week by John M. Ellison IV

Dubstep sounds like crunk’s english younger cousin and grime’s younger brother. Also, it kind of sounds like Ambient Dub’s more moodier kid. Being a fan of dub, drum and bass, grime and UK garage since I was like 16, I oddly enough wasn’t that interested in dubstep when I first heard some of it. It wasn’t bad, just wasn’t in the right head space. But, take into consideration that’s not that unusual with me.

What usually happens with me with music that I show resistance to. But, when a genre does grow on me and connects, I just dive into it head first. In fact, I even have some attempts at making dubstep but using real bass though. I’ll probably release later.
