What is Skrillex and dubstep?

I’ve heard about these two topics, but to be honest I have no idea what they are lol :P I mostly listen to old classic rock like The Beatles, The Doors, Pink Flloyd or songs in spanish so don’t hate :P I’m just curious I hear people talking about how great Dubstep is and that Skrillex is a cheap copy (my friends) and I just want to know wha they are talking about :P

Answer #1

well skrillex from my knowledge is a dubstep band so to speak and to be dubstep is kind of like techno music. I odnt know much about genres but i really do enjoy the up beat music

Answer #2

Skrillex is more like just techo music with random things added to it. Dubstep is mainly electronic & trance music.

Answer #3

In my option Skrillex does not suck, he’s just a DJ who’s doing what he loves. Which is creating music, if it wasn’t for people like Skrillex, 12 Planet,Nero, or Deadmau5 hardly anyone would really know what Dup-Step is and would hear on the radio. Dubstep can be put under the Genre of Electronic muisc I guess, It doesn’t really matter. Heres some of his work. P.s. Skrillex is the guy that’s pale and has half of his hair shaven off. 12 Planet is the black guy that always wears a beanie on his head. http://funadvice.com/r/btmktjtkcbj http://funadvice.com/r/btmktjtkqvl http://funadvice.com/r/165eshvognj http://funadvice.com/r/3q4m1pieis http://funadvice.com/r/165eshvoj0u

Answer #4

Skrillex= overrated Dubstep= best music genre ever to be created

Answer #5

In my opinion, i’m not a dubstep kind of person, so i could care less about it. If you are more like me who likes pop, rap, that kind of music, you aren’t missing out on anything much(:

Answer #9

Dubstep is basically a type of house music that can be distinguished most by its use of the shuffle beat. According to purists… Skrillex is considered a pioneer of brostep or bruvstep… the American counterpart.
