2:44 Clarification. He refers to Reggae music as Reggeaton which are not the same. At first Reggaeton was so inspired in Reggae music but nowadays it's sounds completly different. It's very popular in Spanish-speaking countries. Fun fact, first dubstep was also inspired on Jamaican dub music, which was some kind of experimental Reggae with effects like reeverb. That's why Dubstep is called like that. Dub, comes from "dub reggae" and step comes from 2 step garage which were the most influential genres for Dubstep music.
Yep, that explains why dubstep combined with spanish "isn't a thing". I imagined that myself back in the day and I was confused, why dubstep with spanish singers sounds like your average reggaeton song? haha
4:36 Trapstep is also known as "Hybrid Trap", but I'm not pretty sure if they are the same thing because, "hybrid trap", is basically trap with dubstep elements
Your descriptions absolutely crack me up, great video! I totally agree with your omission of the sub-subgenres. Btw do people consider complextro under house despite its very dubstep-y sounds? obviously that makes sense since complextro is short for complex electrohouse but I still feel a tinge of sadness that it's never mentioned in these videos when glitchhop does!
glad you liked it :) Of course as everything on the topic of subgenres it's debatable, but to me Complextro seemed like a subsubgenre of dubstep since it's a subgenre of Brostep, thats why I didnt put it in. But it's hard to say whats the objective truth here, if there was another video containing Complextro I wouldnt have complained
@@OntarioBirding7538 yeah I know, but as mentioned in my original comment, it does have dubstep/brostep elements. and frankly despite complextro being my favourite genre, I'm not actually a big fan of the house genre in general because of how repetitive they are, so that's why I was asking about what others feel about this.
So we go from Dubstep (Wub Wub) add some Pop EDM to get Brostep (Skree) add some Pop to get Melodic Dubstep (Almost Trance) add some Pop to get Future Bass (uhhh) ok that checks out.
For the Drumstep examples, I would’ve used something like Code Red by Dr Phnoics or Beastmode by Terminite the examples you chose sounded more like DnB
2:59 it's funny that tearout has been redefined when it meant completely different in UK dubstep. Example of OG tearout: Spongebob by Coki Cockney Thug by Rusko Cockney Thug (Caspa remix) Where's My Money (Caspa remix) Fabriclive.37 mix album by Caspa & Rusko
Aren't you mistaking Reggae with Reggaeton for the Reggastep section, im pretty sure the description you make is of Reggae, Reggaeton is kinda different...
Nope, Hybrid Trap and Trapstep aren't the same genre : Hybrid Trap blends Elements of Trap with other genres of EDM (like Brostep, Hardstyle, Future Bass, etc...), and Trapstep is the fusion between Dubstep and Trap.
Why do you think drumstep would be halftime, do you have an example? All source I checked (including ishkurs guide to electronic music music.ishkur.com/?query=Drumstep , Wikipedia, how other people call it etc) suggest that it isnt halftime, the difference between jump up and drumstep is that drumstep is to jump up kind of what Brostep is to dubstep. Its more modern, flashy, has more of a pop structure and is less minimal.
This time I see that you have not made a mistake anywhere, although it could have been better if the garage could be in the house guide, and with this it started with the speed garage, I don't know but it is only a suggestion, but I do notice that You have forgotten to put breakstep, which was like an intermediate point between 2-step and dubstep, which is why it fell into total oblivion in 2008, when dubstep began to gain relevance and popularity, and I also see that you have forgotten about put purple sound, which would be a combination between synth-funk, g-funk, and chiptune and video game music, and of course a bit of dubstep, and you also forgot to put chillstep, which together with melodic dubstep emerged partially, and also to color bass you have forgotten to add, and also to dungeon sound that would be known as dark dubstep!!! PS: the one with the wubstep, sounds more like chipstep!!!
I agree thats its more Trap / Bass Music than Dubstep, but it definitely has Dubstep influences, which is why I included it. People complain less when I have one genre too much than when I'm missing one in their opinion
@@donit. No, that is different i think. Melodic bass goes closer to melodic dubstep. Just refer to Rush over me by seven lions, Illenium and said the sky. Sometimes it is pretty hard to differentiate.
It's standard to use the beat structure to define the genre (not subjective) and the tempo/sound selection defines the subgenre (subjective, different opinions). Dubstep usually has a kick on beat 1 and a snare on 3. One of the songs you used for Brostep, Metalstep, and Wubstep have a kick on every beat with a clap/snare on beats one and two, so that'd make them subgenres of house music (Electro, Complextro, Bass [idk what the metal one would be]). Glitch Hop is actually slower than Dubstep at 110bpm and is considered Mid-Tempo (Trip Hop, Moombahton, Moombahcore, Mid-Tempo Bass, Synthwave). It usually has a kick on 1 and 3 and a snare on 2 and 4 just like Hip Hop, hence the name (also why it sounds faster than dubstep) and they're subgenres of breakbeat! Also just wanted to say your examples for speed garage are ~126 and ~120 bpm which is slower than most garage (and the other garage songs in ur vid) so they might not be the best examples! Let me know if you want any examples, but it doesn't really matter. If this is how you prefer to categorize stuff that's cool too! Just wanted to drop this comment to let others know that paying attention to the beat is super important to figure out the main genre so it's easier to find similar music and talk with others about it! Nice song selection, there were some good tunes in there✌
Interesting perspective, I wouldn't say that I generally disagree and you're also right about the second Brostep example actually being Complextro, that was a mistake I made. But I'm not sure about for example Metalstep - I know the tempo and kick pattern could suggest a house beat, but I don't really see it fit into any other genre than Metalstep. Also, consider genres like Chiptune or Aggrotech - they could have a House beat or a breakbeat etc and still be the same genre, no? Of course the beat can play a big role, but I think in some cases the overall vibe and sound selection can be the more important factor. But on the other hand, just because there are some exceptions to your rule, doesn't mean its not correct most of the time. Comparing the drums is often a good strategy to figure out the genre.
@@donit. You're definitely right about the metalstep song, I'm actually not too sure what else you'd call that because it feels very heavy. As for Chiptune and Aggrotech, I'd need some examples. I'd say across the mainstream, beat & tempo are the primary factor for defining a Sub-Genre, but that get's really fuzzy and subjective when you start to explore new sounds. So when the beats start to differ and shift in Tempo it's probably not the sub-genre you'd have originally thought, if that makes sense? Chiptune seems like a genre that's all it's own because it's roots come from early gaming and the limitations artists faced in the past with sound/note selection being the key factor because of those limitations. Aggrotech however sounds like what I called Mid-Tempo Bass earlier so that's where tempo ranges would come in to play, which won't apply 100% of the time but ultimately, the way those three things relate to each other are very important. If I took a friend that loved Dubstep or one that love House to an Aggrotech show, they both probably wouldn't have their expectations met? Again it's all so subjective, I just think when making something meant to be educational about a sub-genre you may want to consider grabbing on to the roots of those genres which are usually beat structure and tempo, and potentially saving stuff less definable for videos about unique genres that are harder to define! It's tough to pin this stuff down so thanks for still trying and introducing people new to the scene to the insane variety that's out there!
Are all these different Garage tunes subgenres of dubstep? In my opinion it’s vis versa but probably it’s a German thing to count beans 😢😂😂 maximum respect
I kind of right though, tbh the main reason I called it subgenres of dubstep and not subgenres of garage is because I feel like nobody would have clicked on a video about garage.
good point, I really forgot that one. Do you listen to that often and if yes do you maybe have 2 good example tracks? Then I'll put it in the pinned comment.
@@donit.SpongeBob by Coki was described as tearout at the time it came out. Historically, tearout was used to refer to any form of 'heavier' dubstep that uses more distortion and higher frequencies.
I first do some research on the genres, then I try to find 2 songs for every genre, then I mix them together, then I do titles and transition effects, then I add some peak effects and lastly I add the description.
Both “riddim” songs you have are just modern brostep to be honest. Better examples would be “INFEKT - Projectile” for some really riddmy riddim. And then “INFEKT - Endless Party” for a more modern version of riddim. There’s definitely some other inaccurate genres but you completely struck out with the riddim part lol
yeah riddim seems to be a topic of debate, I've also already had people say pretty much the opposite. I think you might be right, but the borders seem to be pretty blurred since the genre evolved so late (generally all subgenres that evolved from brostep)
@Donit there's no debate, brostep artists just used the word riddim on everything and now here we are where no one actually knows what riddim is, and riddim didn't evolve from brostep LOL
tbf it's pretty far from the original genres, but if it's a subgenre of anything then I think this video is the correct one to put it in. And it's definitely possible to see some similarities especially with Post Dubstep
@@donit. Too many to mention, really. Would be for the best if you did not try to 'educate' people on things you know little about yourself. Anyway, based on your comments you don't seem to able to acknowledge you're wrong about something, so no point going more in depth either way.

What subgenre is Levity- Front to back?
4:51 glitch hop isn't dubstep, they're two different genres that developed independently from one another, glitch hop was derived from hip hop
Glitch Hop has very strong Brostep influences, I would definitely say its more Dubstep than Hip Hop

Is it even possible to vibe to Minatory?
Nibit - Countdown isn't brostep, it sounds more like complextro
Does complextro count as brostep?
I did when making this video, tbf looking back now it probably makes more sense to seperate them (thats what I do in my library)
no, it does not
Grime, brostep, post dubstep, trapstep
Plays Tearout but doesn't show the godfather of Tearout himself #MASTADON #marauda
