The dubstep I play, I would describe it as, like, drum and bass with electro-house basslines, mixed with gangster rap beats,” said Danner. “The snare’s always on the three, and it’s usually at 140 beats per minute. House is a little more strict, like, a house beat is a little more strict. And how you dance to it, the way people react to it, would be way more similar to the person standing (next) to you. But with dubstep you can dance really slow, and the girl next to you can be dancing really fast. No one in town is doing it, and it’s huge everywhere else. It’s definitely a young genre of music; it came out of the UK in around 2002, I guess. And it’s huge over there. I mean, it’s like hip-hop is in the United States.

If the first Future Dub goes well on Thursday, Danner has plans to increase Tallahassee’s unmet dubstep prescription to once a month, possibly even weekly, until everyone knows exactly what dubstep sounds like and how to dance to a wobbly bass.
