    I heard this and am watching it! In 10 days this guy is SWEEPING the charts! A new and different kind of dubstep. It is blowing up!

  2. skream may have some wobbles in the background of his songs, but he is a self-proclaimed electronica artist.

  3. skrillex is rilley good but i just checked out ghost and the shit will blow you away

  4. FUCK SKRILLEX THAT EMO LIL BITCH HE SUXXXXX. HIS MUSIC IS GOOD BUT HE SUCKS. HOW R U GUNNA GO FROM EMO BAND TO DUBSTEP THAT SHIT DOESNT MAKE SENCE.

  5. How can you have Skream and Benga but not have Excision? And yes, kids, Skrillex does good stuff but he wasn’t part of the foundation of dubstep..

  6. I like Skrillex’s production but yea, something makes you want to punch his little emo face. It’s like finding out that your favorite metal band is gay. Anyone heard of Bare? that dude is nasty! Omar Santana & Evan Gamble Lewis dub album is the next level shit!! It’s extremely well produced and the tracks are huge and mean with mind blowing sub!!! Of course I can’t forget my boys Datsik and Excision. Swagga is one of my fav all timers. Also, Culprate. Their track Trenchfoot is retarded mean!

  7. I dont what you said makes any sence

  8. Dub-step is insane!!!!:)

  9. My favorite artist have to be bassnectar and skrillex. My playlist is also filled with great artist like Doctor P, Flux pavilion, and Datsik. And i checked out chase and status… They actually suck. I hated every single song. Also if you are just getting into dubstep a lot of people usually like house too. Check out kaskade. Then the widdler. Maybe it was just a few songs i checked out but his music is so weak. If you really want an awesome website for dubstep/techno/break/house/trance and all that good stuff check out trackitdown.net

  10. Don’t forget Borgore… Funny dude too!

  11. anyone who puts skrillex up here is brainwashed to shit. dubstep was made to listen to while your tripping. skrillex makes you feel like shit when your tripping. look under the ground for good dubstep/ breakbeat/ grime/ drum and bass (since they are the SAME) heres my non sell-out list_
    1. PANTyRAID
    2. MiMOSA/Russ Liquid
    3. MiHKAL/TiHKAL
    4. DeFunk
    5. STL Dubfunction-you wont be able to find these tracks anywhere on the net)
    6. Taos (Krizzo)
    7. BLOODY BEETROOTS
    VVVVVVVVV
    8. Tripple Helix
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    9. Kraddy/edIT (both part of The Glitch Mob)
    10. Sageone/Omega ~who do beatles and pink floyd remixxxxez

    THERE ARE SO MANY MORE!!! get your heads out of your asses and explore the great wide world of new age electronically produced dub. which is what dubstep is, an offspring of dub-which is reggae.

    i reecently saw the Dub Trio play live Dubstep with Matisyahu(a reggae-er slash beatboxer) the SICKEST SHOW EVER

    AND lastly. look for the quantum Dubstep songs. those are very good as well

    PARTY-ON
    ~The Jazz Man

  12. Nooooooo way top 10 in my opinion is:
    10) Kode9
    9) Caspa
    8) Bar 9
    7) Kromestar
    6) Benga
    5) Burial
    4) Digital Mystickz
    3) Skream
    2) Pinch
    1) Loefah

  13. I need some help guys. I’m actually a metal fan (death, black metal) from way back. But, I’m a big fan of bands like Hybrid, The Crystal Method etc. I’m pretty keen to hear some new stuff. I got Nero’s Welcome Reality and like the darker, heavier side of Drum n Bass. Some of the Nero stuff is OK. It was classified as Dubstep so figured you guys know what your talking about. Any recommendations for dark, powerful, bass heavy, drum n bass/dubstep style bands?

  14. BASSNECTAR trumps all !!!!!

  15. Skrillex did bad ass with korn on Get up but his old band was gay and he does remix alot of gay songs but his dubstep makes up for the gayness of some of the songs. bassnectar is the shit and flux pavillion is bad ass. diesels good and neros not bad

  16. Dubstep sounds like shit. Fucks up your ears. Only retards enjoy this ridiculous trash.

  17. Despite what alot of people say about Skillex I actually enjoy his music. The only 3 complaints about him that I have are, 1. The first time I googled “Skrillex” I thought he had an over obsessive female fan who postyed to many pics of herself…. Then I relized that is actually him and was a little creeped out. 2. His song “Reptile” was horribly boaring and made me want to punch babies. 3.”Rock n’ Roll” Is the most annoying damn song I have ever heard. “Kill EVERYBODY” for instance is a great song by him in my opinion. I also wanted to post a recommendation with this, if you haven’t heard the song “Bass Invaders & Red Alert” by Chrispy you should check it out.

  18. what about devin martin???!

  19. Bratkilla – Methamphetamine

    FUCKING NUTZ

  20. alright i hate to join in and talk about skrillex, but despite the fact that he looks sketchy that mother fucker throws down! ive been to one of his sets before and i honestly thought the roof was gonna blow off the place. the energy was nuts. But with all that saidm Lorin of Bassnectar is the god of dubstep

  21. SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA should be on here, they’re way better then “The Widdler”
    even DEV is better then “The Widdler”

  22. Skrillex so far is the only Dubstep worth listening to. I like a lot of music, and sometimes my friends give me shit when i try out something new, until I get them in it. I listened to all these bands, and folks, I gotta tell ya, its crap. I listened to Skrillex on accident, and it’s awesome. Its something you move to. This dubstep is just….it sounds like whale farts. To all the Skrillex bashers, i may not understand the genre, and hell, I dont want to, but he just sounds better. From First to Last was the greatest emo band on earth, and now Sonny made the only dubstep worth listening to. good for him

  23. first of all who ever does not like dubstep drum and bass or any good electronic can suck a fat choad or chode.so here are my favorite artist
    1.funtcase
    2.doctor p
    3.flux pavilion
    4.zimo
    5.filth zilla
    6.bass necter
    7.genetix
    8.siber space
    9.jogo
    10.datsik
    11.excision
    12.eptic
    13.chrispy

    there is more but i cant think of any more check these guys out

  24. hey i am emo

  25. I’m quite new to dubstep around a year of listening but I like it but for most of the tracks I feel they need something else. I really like dedication by zomby although I’m not sure it should be classed or is dubstep you’ll have to tell me, I’m liking digital mystiks for the club style tunes and 16 bit, but in general I’m hoping to hear something mind blowing and very musical at the same time. Sometimes I feel artists just bang noises together and the bass and wobble sometimes just gets murdered i need the base and wobble to change more.
    some of my favourites are
    . ancient memories (Skream mix)
    . quwwali (Pinch)
    . meditate (Sarantis)
    . fatty drums (Skream)
    . light bulb (Benga)
    . cosmos skank (Dr justice)
    . el mundo (Hektagon)
    . 6306 (Benga)
    . breathe (Cillo)
    . digital flora (Zomby)
    . Neverland (Digital Mystiks)

    Please recommend me some good artist or albums thanks!

  26. Idk what you all think but i like klaypex’s “lights”

  27. im sorry but this tool knows nothing,,, the best is underground dubstep,, artists like chase and status mock the dubstep world, the best artists for dubstep are skream, leofah, coki and burial. im shocked!!!

  28. Skrillex beats it all

  29. Shut the fuck up with skrillex.
    In all honesty, he has talent, but all of his shit is way over played.
    Not to mention that there are tons of other DJs that have been in the dubstep scene twice as long as him that are so much better than he is.
    In my opinion, he can go back to his band shit…

  30. Haha, Skrillex Nationalized a British Music genre, when people go to Japan are they listening to Benga? or Caspa? Fuck no they are listening to the pumped up tunes of skrillex! Yea, sure He was in an emo band. Who gives a fuck? The dudes music will blow your fucking head off!! All this “Skrillex is faggy person, but his music is good” His music is a personification of himself stupid ass’es
    Here’s my list though :)

    1)Bare Noize
    2)Rogue
    3)Skrillex
    4)Nero
    5)Downlink
    6)Devin Martin
    7)Calvin Harris
    8)Borgore
    9)Chasing Shadows (red is their best song in my oppinion)
    10)Genesis
    11)Zeds Ded
    12)Emalkay
    13)Doctor P
    14)Feed Me
    15)Flux Pavillion

  32. [...] STEP TO THISH1 STEP TO THISH2 STEP TO THISH3 [...]

  33. No Borgore, not good. Skrillex isn’t even dubstep, it’s like shittah pop with dubstep wobwobs. Borgore took the epicness of dubstep to the level that even god and absolute can’t reach (ps. god doesn’t exist, sorry). This should be like:
    1. Borgore
    …and other dubstep artists i want to hear but my sub dont let me coz playin borgor.

  34. Zeds dead anyone ? lol .

  35. Hey, there’s nothing wrong with Skrillex! He’s got a couple of Dubsteppy songs. Love Zed’s Dead – nights in white satin and what about UKF? They produce a lot of good stuff!

  36. The thing is, Skrillex IS NOT DUBSTEP. Skrillex is mainly Brostep which wasbrought in by Skrillex in 2010. He is also associated with Fidgit house and Electronica, but he really isnt Dubstep. Theres a quick lesson for all of you nerds:)

  37. Y r ppl h8ting on Skrillex don’t get me wrong
    But yes some songs suk from hem but who cares
    anyways y r ppl calling hem emo just cuz he looks emo
    Duzent mean his emo there’s a different between
    Looking emo n being emo so get your facts straight
    Be 4 calling ppl emo. I know ppl r going to say
    Shit about me but I’m just backing up my man “Skrillex<3

  38. well i was recently brought into dubstep so all i know is bar9 skrillex excision datsik and nero but thats all i read and looked up some of these the r……..llwait for it……….SICK AS HELL

  39. Too bad you forgot about zomboy, flux pavilion, helicopter showdown, downlink and borgore.

  40. what a bout deadmau5 you cant leave hiim out

  41. deadmau5 is into EDM…..

  42. im sorry to say but Skrillex is the best artist. it doesnt matter if he wasnt one of the founders of Dubstep he has talent and we need to respect that. How many people do you know who does what they love? he loves to do this its his passion he doesnt have to do it but he does. i didnt know that this was a gossip sight. if you guys acually are doing something you love than you know how it feels its your passion and people respect that. so guys just respect him. and who cares if he is emo or not i dont see whats wrong with it. its his business if he is. thats something thats persional to him. and all his song are really good none of them are bad.

  43. 5. Bassnectar
    4. Chrispy
    3. Excision
    2. Downlink
    1. Datsik
    This Dubstep is really slow, & there aren’t any real drops, which is one of the things that made Dubstep famous. BTW Skrillex is brostep, which is like electronica with robotic soundeffects. Skrillex makes Dubstep look bad because of his terrible bass.

  44. \\,/ \,//
    ~DEAD MAU5~
    Its purely everything.

  45. for the guy who said swedish house mafie, your an idiot they arent dubstep actually trance. um borgore not a chance,
    the hardest dubstep song is eyes remix by alvin risk. dude gets it. also skrillex does his thing but he doesnt have a lot of wobble in his songs its more or less high pitched frequency and noises, flux p kills shit , also check out item 9 and ch3ddar ch@d

  46. I LOVE SKRILLEX!!!!!!!! He should totally be up there. I’ve never heard of those other people. Im 11…

  47. Skrillex’s music is shit.

    My Nu Leng, Skream, Minoru, SBTRKT, Jamie xx, Gambit, Syrebral and KOAN Sound, are where shit’s at.
