I reckon youd have to say GC.

In terms of dubstep before dubstep, before garage, has to be Radio Babylon, sounds more like modern dubstep than most of the early dubstep tunes.

Benny Ill used to come in the shop. Back in the early garage days he was trying to make garage but he was putting the snare on the wrong beat, on the three beat. It made it more like … he loves dub reggae.. he was making dub reggae garage. We were like ‘this is weird’ but Hatcha loved it but Hatcha called it dubstep. It was Benny Ill that started it, without a doubt. He used to bring the tracks into us. We were so used to the garage sound and he’d come in with this record with the beats on the wrong beat and Hatcha used to play them on then radio. It was very dubby and it wasn’t 2 step.

not to be taken much seriously, but Im feeling Ripples by Genesis, taken from Genesis Archive #2. if you can find it, look for the drums from 4:30 to the end of the song

Well if you wanna take that route, Renegade Soundwave - The Phantom came out earlier (1989).

There was tons of this stuff in the early 90's, and I don't hear the resemblance to modern dubstep at all.
