Dubstep Research Project

Post by mosesman010203 » Wed May 12, 2010 9:07 am

I am writing a project about dubstep and electric genre's and their roots. Does anyone have anything that can help me. My actual title for my project is, Has Electronics had a big effect on the music scene. Does anyone know any other genre's that have been effected, or where dubstep has come from. I want to concentrate on the links that dubstep has, including the link to actual instruments in dubstep, for example V by Distance. I have some knowledge of dubstep from my initial research already, for example the characteristics of dubstep and its divergence from garage/dub/reggae/2 step/basically everything. Any help would be great. Share you knowledge!!!!

the slow transition of analogue versus digital (and the resistence of analogue (vinyl) formats against this evolution)

dubstep started around 2005 from a guy named Rusko who invented the sound, then caspa was like yo i need in on this. then there were people like mt eden dubstep and borgore and unicorn kid that joined the scene. after that the scene just grew and grew until present day where it is currently dominated by rusko, borgore, mt eden, chase n status and doctor p. hope this helps :)

Before 1998 - UK Garage was 4x4, basically soulful house but with "UK beat" (faster than US garage)
1998 - birth of 2Step, massive UK garage blowup peaking with Craig David and Artful Dodger hits around the world in 1999
2000 - 2 step dies, diverted sounds and DJs playing b-sides, dub remixes and "darker" (zed bias and the lot)
2001-2004 the grime years, never really reaching anywhere outside the UK except from wiley and dizzee
2004 - 2010 grime b-sides and darker, deeper remixes blowing up - got called dubstep, basically it's just garage b-sides sound again, just labeled as own genre.

dub is over 70 years old, it's a mindstate, a production technique, a culture. dubstep is just its latest incarnation, it's a sound that has migrated between Reggae > House > Techno > Drum & Bass (because jungle was never dub! jungle was rave) > Breaks (with TAYO in the lead!) and now lately > Garage.

Check this corny, but still funny GUIDE TO ELECTRONIC MUSIC out :D

http://techno.org/electronic-music-guide/
(It is a funny interactive online application that allows you to click on various genres and listen to them.. it is hard to sound original under this light :p)

NOTE::: he has not updated it with DUBSTEP, it should obviously follow after "2Step garage" under the HOUSE section.

And also I thought it was people like Benga, Skream, Hatcha, Youngsta who invented dubstep, or had a big part in inventing it?

the lack of sarcasm detection in this thread is frankly appalling

There's some history/info here under the "archive" section: http://www.garagepressure.com/ - This mostly relates to the early UK (garage/breakstep/breaks) influence on the Australian scene.
