What is a subgenre?

One subgenre of music is dubstep, which originated in the early 2000s in the UK. Dubstep is characterized by its heavy basslines, syncopated rhythms, and use of electronic music production techniques such as wobble bass and glitch effects. The genre has since evolved and gained popularity worldwide, with artists like Skrillex and Skream leading the way. Dubstep has also influenced the development of other genres such as EDM and trap music.
