Apologies in advance for this rookie question, as ive only jsut started listening to this sortah stuff

looking at some of the songs posted here under drumstep, too me i would call these tracks dubstep... im obviously wrong.

viewtopic.php?f=69&t=8977

so my question is.. what is the differences between dubstep and drumstep.. and any other similar genres/subgenres

Posted

havent' listened to the tracks yet, but drumstep is a genre that offsprings from dubstep and Drum & Bass, drawing elements from both genres to create a new one. Quite often at a similar speed to DnB instead of the slower dubstep speed.

Correct me if i'm wrong anyone

Mitch your right on the money with that 1, basically Mattus drumstep is a drum n bass tempo but it skips a beat to make it sound like dubstep but a lot faster

bro dubstep is all about subgenre's

As is the case with most genre's but I've always felt that it get's a bit much when it comes to sub genres. Some of the the titles for them out there are ridiculous.

This one isn't too bad but it's still just dubstep in my ears.

EDIT: or make up your own sub genre.

I play lava house. deep as fuck....

perfect example is skrillex's new bangarang (single) its like 90bpm aka 180bpm like drum and bass, but its better to look at it as 90bpm because it does sound slower,and with a standard 4x4 kick beat unlike that off kick and snare dubstep sound, you cant really call it dubstep so someone came up with drumstep

Drumstep was basically created by the dnb guys so they could mix dubstep in their sets. Dubstep itself was too slow so they just sped it up really.

True story btw lol

Moombahton is described a combination of "moombah" and "reggaeton." Often described as 'Dutch House slowed down to 110BPM'.

Moombahton consists of latin beats mixed up with dutch house productions slowed down to 110bpm. Moombahton has two main subgenres, Moombahsoul and Moombahcore. Moombahcore was founded by Munchi which added hardcore sounds (mainly Dubstep) to the 110bpm range. It consits of hard bass Moombahton. Moombahsoul was founded by David Heartbreak, which featured Moombahton remixes and edits of R&B classics with Moombahton influences and techniques.

wasnt moombahton created by dave nada of nadastrom. he had been working on the musical style for a bit, but then at a high school formal (from memory) he mixed a track called moombah with some reggaeton beats. and form there it got its name and he worked on a whole album of it. ill look for the article.

oh it was also in the wikipedia article, but i think the interview was on the mad decent blog.

anyways it was from slowing down the track called moombah to a reggaeton speed. which is basically the moombahton sound, i.e. slowing house music in particular dutch and fidget to 108 BPM

Moombahton (also known as Moom Moom) is a sub-genre of electronic dance music that was created by American DJ and producer Dave Nada[2] (aka Dave Villegas) at a high school homecoming "skipping party" for his younger cousin in Washington, D.C., in the fall of 2009.[3] The specific event that stimulated Nada's development of the Moombahton genre was his slowing the Afrojack remix of the Silvio Ecomo & DJ Chuckie song "Moombah" to 108 beats per minute, a tempo near that of the reggaeton. The name of the sub-genre itself comes from the portmanteau of "moombah" and "reggaeton."
