Dubstep was originally a more rhythmically sparse take on styles such as garage and drum and bass while drawing an influence from dub music. More recent incarnations of the genre have seen it take on a much heavier form of sound with much more focus on very heavy and distorted basslines. While breakbeat (or breaks) is defined by its use of a syncopated drum pattern and big synthesized basslines. Other subgenres to emerge from breakbeat are big beat and nu skool breaks amongst others.
