Dubstep
Dubstep is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in South London in the early 2000s. The style emerged as a UK garage offshoot that blended 2-step rhythms and sparse dub production, as well as incorporating elements of broken beat, grime, and drum and bass.Reynolds, S.(2012),''Energy Flash: A Journey Through Rave Music and Dance Culture,'' Perseus Books; Reprint edition (5 January 2012), pages 511–516, (). In the United Kingdom, the origins of the genre can be traced back to the growth of the Jamaican sound system party scene in the early 1980s. Dubstep is generally characterised by the use of syncopated rhythmic patterns, prominent basslines, and a dark tone.

Blow The Roof
''Blow the Roof'' is the second EP by English dubstep artist Flux Pavilion. It entered the UK Albums Chart at number 60 and the UK Dance Albums Chart at number four. ''Blow the Roof'' represents a slight evolution of Flux Pavilion's typical production style while keeping it the same; according to Connor Hartley of the music blog Reigning Beats, "In the EP, Flux plays with his musical styles, performing some trap, some electro-hop, and some faster dubstep rhythms, but refuses to compromise the depth of his sound."
