And generalizing is stupid, especially without ever meeting a person.

To me Dub step is just the latest in a long line of the devolution of the drum and base genre. In its hay day it was a cross between dub and amen. It was dark and intense but balanced with beautiful soprano vocals, horns, strings and raga mc’s. Then around 97 the decline began, first jump-up, then 2 step now dub step. Each one more minimal and boring than the next. I don’t know why people insist on breaking things that are already awesome. What happened to the amazing, complex Jungle of the early and mid 90’s.:(

So, because I occasionally enjoy a form of music, find it annoying that people generalize about people who like said form of music, I'm immediately classified into the group?

..Wow.

That's pretty much the same as saying that because someone doesn't like a particular species of snake that they're for all snakes being banned.

Yeah what is a hipster?

I do like some of Skrillex's stuff which I think is considered Dub step, it does all sound pretty much the same though.

Ya know at first I thought it was a dance style because I saw a bunch of videos called "Dubstep Dance" and the like.

And a couple of you are getting fiesty. Simmer down boys. Simmer down.

my sister is the epitome of a hipster. so is her husband. they are both white, extremely liberal, coffee shop type, very precise on their interests, very into the "new"..and now reside in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn, because...eh, why not? Harlem is getting overrun with hipsters too.

As far as calling Dub step fans hipsters: where I'm from that's what you see. I'm just calling like it is. I'm sure there's some more hardcore followers elsewhere or even here for that matter but where I am, I'm not seeing it....take offense or don't. none was intended.

there's an episode of king of the hill about hipsters...pretty funny.

Dubstep (/ˈdʌbstɛp/) is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in south London, England. Its overall sound has been described as "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals".[1]

dubstep is a form of music that anyone can like ! i am in high school and 90% of the 4000 people at my school love it . it is the first musical genre that anyone and everyone can like

dubstep can make a bad song good, and a good song great
