Dubstep has evolved from its origins back in 1998 to what it is today. Original dubstep started out as dark bass lines with beats that and also focused heavily on the beat. Dubstep today has evolved from that to heavier basslines that focused all more on the sound of the bass and melody than anything else. But the thing that some people don't get is that it is still dubstep.

Don't think your hard because you know what the "classics" are. You all call it brostep because you can't get over the fact that it has changed to what it is today. All of the artists above are dubstep, just a new form of it.

And before you hate on me for mentioning Skrillex, like he is Hitler, I understand already that not all of his songs are dubstep.

To sum it up:

This is dubstep:


And this is also dubstep:
