Regstep

Description

Regstep is a fusion genre that combines elements of reggae and dubstep, characterized by the heavy basslines and syncopated rhythms of dubstep with the laid-back, offbeat rhythms and melodic elements of reggae.

History

Regstep emerged as artists began experimenting with blending the deep bass and electronic elements of dubstep with the traditional sounds of reggae. This fusion was facilitated by the shared emphasis on bass and rhythm in both genres. The genre gained traction in the late 2000s and early 2010s as electronic music producers sought to diversify their sound by incorporating reggae influences.
