I've noticed that there seems to be a lot of misconceptions in the metal community as to what "dub-step" is, and it seems that some prominent artists are listening to what they've been shown is "dub-step" but what is really a highly commercialized version. Basically what happened to the genre is similar to what happened to jazz, R&B, Hip-Hop, etc.
I'd like to address this because I feel that the misconception as to what "dub-step" is leads to many people who would enjoy the genre missing out on some pretty progressive and enjoyable music.
First I would like to point out that the genre is something that is very much meant to be experienced live, nothing can properly emulate that experience, but nonetheless the music is still enjoyable in a dark space on a good pair of headphones, computer system with a sub woofer, or decent car stereo system.
Here are some examples to demonstrate the polarity, YouTube quality does absolutely no justice, but I think you will be able to see the point.
Notice the use of African rhythms and the focus on creating a "space" or environment.
Notice the use of extended chord voicing.
Notice the focus on slow tension building and release.
Notice the focus on subtly changing syncopations and creation of a melancholy atmosphere
Here are some more popular "dubstep" artists to contrast, notice the overall focus on immediate gratification and over-stimulation as well as violent themes.
SKRILLEX - Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites - YouTube
DatsiK - Firepower (Full) - YouTube
Chrispy - Roll Out - YouTube

Ich eröffne dieses Thema, weil viele "Dubstep"-Produzenten denken, der Kern von Dubstep liegt in Massive-Wobbles und einfache Rhythmen mit einigen lustigen Samples im Hintergrund.
