Darkstep
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Darkstep is a sub genre of Drum and Bass which became popular in the late 1990s. It is the result of a combination of the dark elements of Darkcore with highly energetic breaks like the amen break and the firefight break.
A typical tune from this genre is characterized by intense drums, odd ambient noises, as well as the very notable "reese" bass sound. It generally does not follow any scales tending to throw in many chromatic scale elements to get a very "dark" feeling.
