Summary
Dubstep is one of those genres that, too many, feels like it simply showed up. But, contrary to popular belief, dubstep has one of the most interesting histories in all of music! Sure, most people heard dubstep for the first time when Skrillex came on the scene in 2011, but the roots of the genre go all the way back to 1940s Jamaica! Come along as we WUBWUBWUB our way through history from Jamaican independence through prolific dubstep music label, Disciple Records. This week's FT! was commissioned by our patron Zhakhix!
