Dubstep is music that brings parts of old badly constructed housing down on my neighbours heads and so La señora Pilar is threatening to sue me :?

tierd of trying to explain it.. so heres some of the ideas as to what it is.

Dubstep, South London's dark garage hybrid.

Exclusive beats to skank to and b-lines that make your chest cavity shudder.

inspiration draws on UK Garage, Techno, House, Dub, Broken-Beat, Hip-Hop, Reggae, D&B, Funk, Soul and a massive selection of global cinema samples.

Not just good music its also a good feeling.

Grand.

sorry to spoil your fun... thats what dubstep is.

Dubstep is the little 2 beat sub noise 3 minutes into shattered by coki
