Dubstep

I first posted this one to wrong place. I'm sorry for that. Feel free to delete my first post.

Anyway...

When it comes to living in the 2000's, dubstep is probably the most significant new music genre. The sound of dubstep is hard to describe, but in a nutshell it's deep, dark and often very bass-heavy electronic music originating from London.

The genre is not album-oriented and the easiest way to get stuff is just to google "dubstep mix mp3" and get a mix to download. Mixes differ from each other - just like the whole thing. There is danceable (but still deep, dark and gloomy) "party" music and there is non dance-oriented music.

The dubstep album, that I would recommend is "Untrue" by Burial, that someone has described being "the soundtrack of rainy and empty city of London at night". The album contains only very few vocals (all sampled) and it's more about electronic sound walls about feeling of being desperate and alone in urban environment and looking for love and friendship.

Nice idea, I think... I've never really listened to any dubstep, but will begin with Untrue!
