2002? Wut.

The dubstep connection is that this shit was dark, and began stripping away a lot of the poppy elements and the girl vocals and replaced them with more technoid and dread dubby elements, not to mention bringing the bass to the foreground. This being around 2001-2004 you've got Breakstep, dark 2-step like El-B, Horsepower and instrumental grime like Alias and Terror Danja all rolling round the pirates at the same time and it's out of this mush that dubstep emerged.

To be pedantic, isn't this Breakstep?

Name comes from Breakbeat + 2-step garage.

And to put it in context, it came from within the garage scene when some of the producers began experimenting with breakbeats as opposed to the usual skippy US-Garage-House-Fucked-Up-By-L­ondon 2-step beats of other UKG at the time. at around 138 bpm it was on the faster edge of UKG but because of the rolling breakbeats it sounded like 'jungle slowed down'.

@twmate dj icey is a cool spot to start, he has a lot of older tracks (hes been in it since 92) but hes got a lot of new shit out. Look up breaks/break beats
