Here’s a chill electro and indie dubstep playlist that’s jam packed with stellar remixes that even dubstep novices will find irresistible. The unifying theme is: sick beats, wobbly and/or fuzzy bass, and glitchy-ness. There’s some older stuff, some newer stuff, and lots of phenomenal bass drops that are guaranteed to make your head explode with happiness.

Great playlist, Alice!
So this is what all the fuss over The XX is about.
SebastiAn’s remix of Cheap and Cheerful is way up there on my list of favourite remixes, and makes this great playlist absolutely fucking amazing
this x1000
Haven’t listened to it all yet, but looking at the names it’s going to be good.
We Don’t Eat (Adventure Club Remix)
i love this remix so so much. James Vincent McMorrow and dubstep should not work but it really does.
also The XX / Sander Van Doorn track is awesome!
I know right! I loooove both those tracks with an undying passion. I’m not ashamed to say I’ve made people sit in silence in my car as ‘We Don’t Eat’ has played.
finally, i can seduce carmen de la pica morales.
heyyy, good luck with that.(this playlist will def help) also, pics or it didnt happen. is that creepy? i dont care if its creepy.
Not usually a fan of dubstep (prefer house/trance/progressive) but I have to say a lot of this is pretty good stuff!
Another really good dubstep song is Fighting Fire by Breakage feat. Jess Mills – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQcBYboY8G4
The only thing I don’t like about this song is that the chick in the video is WAY too heavily clothed. If you’re going to show me a go go dancer for 4 minutes, she better be at least half naked.

Word, I’m feeling this. Mighty hard.

Thanks everybody! I am loving all the suggestions. New soundtrack for the week!
This playlist is so sexy and packed full of wob wob wob. <3 Thanks for this!!
Hotstuff. I’d love to go spinning to some of this..
This is such an awesome playlist thank you so much! Also another dubstep artist I really suggest is Rusko- his stuff is amazing, plus I interviewed him and he was hilarious. I’m going to go download these songs now!
Ahh thanks! Yeah I just got Rusko’s O.M.G.! album. Only listened to it once all the way through but I like it! He did the Little Boots remix above, which I ADORE.
This mix is the shit!! I love it!!
I found this amazing dubstep remix of Fluttershy’s little cheer for Rainbow Dash (the sporty, shaggy-haired, rainbow-splashed pony who may or may not be gayer than tennis players at Pride) from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic–
AND I FUCKING LOST IT. But I’d highly recommend it if you can find it. Also I’m recommending My Little Pony because Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle are walking Pride flags.
