Im bored and was thinking maybe a few people dont understand such words like bassface and percy and stuff so I thought maybe we can put together a small dictionary of dubstep related words?


A

B
Bassive (ba - sief) - adjective
Bassive is a word constructed of "Bass" and "Massive" together to give a description that a tune has massive bass.

Example:
Eugene: This tune is basssive bludd!

--------------------------------------------------

Bassface (bass - face) - adjective
A word used to describe someones facial expression when a massive bassline comes along or a big drop occurs in a tune. Its hard to describe the ideal bassface but they usually consist of screwed up faces with "angry eyebrows" and puffed out cheecks and tight lips building up pressure in someones face making them look as if they are about to attack someone with a brick or just that they appear to be constipated. If a lucky rave go-er manages to take a snap, one eye of the bassface usually ends up bigger than the other.

Example:
Eugene: Mary had a bassface and it looked like she was about to batter Fanny into a pulp


Brap - (brrrrrrrrrap) misc
A noise generally heard when a "big riddim" is dropped or several bars of lyrics were so insane the track that they were spat over was instantly "pulled-up".

Example:
Wiley: I am wiley and im gettin hyper, gettin dirty like a babys diaper
Crowd: BRRRRAP!!
Wiley: Pull up that bludclart riddim
*Dj stops the tune preparing to play it from the beginning*


Biggles - (big - gals) - adjective
No definition.

C

Cieling Crumbs (noun) [see-ling kruhms]
what you may in your beer when you experience dubstep on a heavy sound system in an enclosed area, such as, but not limited to, a basement.

D

Do do do do doooo doooooo doooooooooo - (do do do dooo) - misc
The sounds usually generated by a Dubstepper on their journeys whilst listening to Benga vs Coki - Night via their mp3 player oblivious to the outside world.

Example:
Commuter: Do do do do dooo dooooo dooooooooooooooooooo

H
