Some of my favorite tunes from the genre known as dubstep, I also agree with what was said some of the best dubstep originated from the bay area, check out bay area dubstep, all three volumes. http://www.amazon.com/B-A-D-Bay-Area-Dubstep-Volume/dp/B0011U1MR8

I LOVE psytrance but I often cannot bear listening to dubstep. I have to really be in sme kind of mood to want to listen to that.

actaully some of the stuff posted here like Asura I listen to a lot but I never really concidered that dubstep..maybe I just really dislike some dubstep.

Big psytrance fan myself. I'm listening to it all the time these days. I've only ever experienced it live once, only because the psytrance scene is sooo weak here where I live. (nonexistant actually) I was on acid for that time and it was absolutely amazing. I'm definately gonna make it to some fests and stuff whenever I can. I can be 100% sober and it will get me in a pumped psychedelic trancey dancey mood, I love it. All the sounds n whatnot :want: Not really a dubstep fan anymore, like at all, but hey I won't hate, everyone's different. That video was pretty funny

Cheers hug46, its not quite what I'm after but it was quite nice.
I'm looking for dirty and dark with good drops, the search continues.

Seven Lions

Trance and dubstep combined, beautiful.

Beautiful vocal dubstep..

Seven lions IMO is the best thing to happen to dubstep, if you want engaging sound, airy melodies and great vocals without all the wub and sound nonsense that dubstep is associated with then I highly suggest these links.

A lot of the links I see people posting for dubstep artists on this thread are all for pretty well known/generic artists. If youre looking for heavy and dark then maybe you should stray off the beaten track.

I used to listen to death metal so let that be an indication of what my taste in dubstep is like:

^just got his album and it's some of the heaviest dubstep Ive heard so far

ry legit is another great artist so heres one from his new lp:

and figure is great as well

 

[universecannon]

heh, funny video

i just can't really get into the vast majority of dubstep though ... and skrillex makes me just wanna vomit

it sounds like something optimus prime would sing in the shower as he starts short-circuiting

but no hate here..to each they're own :] .. i'm sure i'd get into the grove more if i was at a live show or something

 

[deadlight]

very open minded old people!

i can't imagine 60's kids showing their rents psychedelic rock and having them be so open to it!

we have progressed

An old one:

I did listen to Dubstep quite a bit but then I got into the Darkstep/Hardcore scene.
Psytrance is fine too, I'd never go to a festival without a Goa-Stage

honestly though it's probably the same. these old people are exposed to electronic music, as compared to whatever music they might know from the 40-60s jazz/blues/rock/pop. Old people in the 60s would've been reacting to psychedelic rock when they were used jazz and classical and whatever other stuff

my point is it doesn't matter what year it is, the music old people listened to when they were young compared to the new music being released while they are old are always completely different

I listen to a lot of psybient (psytrance and ambient sub genre). I also listen to it at work and the people I work with are in their 50's with the exception of a few. I get comments like "stop listening to that electro rubbish....it ain't real music" and the most recent comment was "That bleeping and whizzing new age crap ain't music."

I threw my trump card on the table and said it ain't new. Electronica has been around before 1963. Much head scratching, looks of confusion and laughter from my work mates until I told them the very first electronic composition was the theme tune to Dr Who.

The workshop breakroom became suddenly awkward.

The elders video made me lol. At one point one of the women said something like "It sounds dark and scary", and my thoughts were "yeah? and...?". I think that modern musicians are using music to evoke emotions that have not traditionally been expressible through music, and so people who grew up getting other emotions from their music will not know how to receive the message of something like dubstep.

For the record, I really like the song Bangarang. Oh, and here's an electro drop:
