Dubstep vs. Brostep




In July 2021, YouTube set all unlisted videos uploaded before 2017 to private (unless the channel owner had opted out). In the weeks leading up to this change, Archive Team archived many pre-2017 unlisted YouTube videos. If this video was uploaded before 2017 and has gone private, there is a chance that a 360p archived version can be viewed on archive.org via the site's Wayback Machine as follows:

1. Enter the YouTube URL in the Wayback Machine form or click on the following link:
https://web.archive.org/web/20210000000000*/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv45p5eZdKo

2. Right-click on a blue entry in July in the calendar.

3. Click 'Copy link address'.

4. Paste the copied link address into your web browser's address bar and press enter.

Description:

An explanation of the difference between Dubstep and Brostep music.

From the YouTube description:

In our "Is Dubstep Avant Garde Musical Genius" episode we sorta elide two very distinct forms of dubstep: the more aggressive and mid-rangey stuff Skrillex is best known for and the more spacious, atmospheric low-range music made by guys like Scuba. The former has come to be known within the dubstep community as "brostep" - a term which originated on dubstepforum.com - and for many listeners isn't even CONSIDERED dubstep at all.

Special thanks to @shrtstck, @Kozee, @Sami_Yenigun for helping us to get this one straight via IRC. We hope we got our clarifying facts down.
