Where are the two step vibes? I'm tired of halfstep! I'll get into that.

Dubstep is ridiculous! It's basically "crunkalot," which is some 2 step vibes mixed with more prominent basslines from DnB!

The drums are just uninteresting, the DJs are BLAH (rather listen to Marcus Intalex than D-D-DJ Youngsta), dungeon is annoying, bro is prevalent.

It seems like the only person reviving those 2 step vibes is Burial...

Dubstep is like loads of noises out together.

Dubstep is horrible music....

No, you're thinking of bro. Listen to something like Loefah - Mud, and then you will see dubstep for what it is: bassweighty halfstep. I don't like that! Bassweight I can of course tolerate, but not halfstep!

Like I said, Burial is the only one going with that 2 step thing!

If that's what dubstep really is, I'm not a fan.

That's perfectly fine. Dubstep is really about minimalism. If you want to listen to really pure, distilled, primordial dubstep, listen to Benga's "Skanq" or Benga's "dose."

>Benga's "dose."

This was by far the best song I've listened to (Out of "Mud," "Skanq," and "Dose") The others were just, I'd hate to say it, but I must.
.. Boring.

If you could suggest something similiar to "Dose," I'd be happy.
I honestly don't know how to start to get into this genre.
Any help would be appreciated.

If you're serious and not just being sarcastic, I'll list a bunch of producers and labels that you can check out, some prominent, some obscure.

(If you really want a banging track that you can play on loop, look up Badman VIP by Kryptic Minds; it's a dubplate, though. RSD - Jah Jah Rain is good, and Goth Trad - Psychic Power is a BANGER!)

Well, there are really three subgenres of dubstep, at least in my opinion: tearout (Coki is probably the most prominent tearout producer), dungeon, and 808. Tearout is more midrange focused with a lot of wobbles (check out Kromestar - Monster Dub or Coki - Goblin), dungeon is deep with a lot of growls (look of J:Kenzo - The Roteks), and 808 is just ridiculous and corny (look up Ramadanman).

>Kromestar - Monster Dub
Not really all that interesting. I didn't enjoy the animal sounds and the guy talking in it.

>Coki - Goblin
Better than the one above. I'm not sure how to describe that main sound - or even what you would call it, but it was way too repetitive and got annoying.

I'm currently listening to J:Kenzo - The Roteks.
It's not bad. Kind of enjoying it. I'm planning on listening to Good old days - Jack Sparrow

The reason a guy is talking is because the tune is a dubplate, which means it is unreleased. MCs talk over dubplates so no one rips the dubplates from a set.

Oh okay.
That makes a ton of sense.
