Intriguing:
There are actually a lot of different subgenres of Dubstep, so much that it has become an incredibly diverse genre with a lot more tones and styles than one would expect! Here’s some examples of what traditional Dubstep has branched into:
Brostep - What most people consider “Dubstep”, the one with organic growls and melodic lead breaks. Popularized by Skrillex, Brostep has become one of the most recognizable EDM genres out there!
Melodic Dubstep - It has much more of a focus on chords, with some small growl fills thrown in occasionally. Made to be a much more emotional form of dubstep that appeals to a wider audience.
Color Bass - A Frankenstein fusion of melodic and heavy Dubstep. The sounds themselves can be powerful and heavy, but it uses the melodic tones of Melodic Dubstep to create an incredibly unique musical experience!
Orchestral Dubstep - This one is really obscure! Orchestral Dubstep is a relatively old genre developed over 10 years ago primarily by artists such as Xtrullor and Tallure. It’s often a much slower pace than traditional Dubstep, with a special focus on power and emotional strength with unconventional filtering techniques and cinematic orchestral layering.
holy crap xtrullor mentioned
Xtrullor was incredibly talented for his time! He still innovates today. What’s your favorite Xtrullor song? :)
