What are dubstep remixes?

Dubstep remixes are edited versions of songs in a variety of genres that have been transformed into dubstep songs. These remixes are characterized by the deep and heavy bass sounds and syncopated electronic drum samples that are characteristic of dubstep music.

As dubstep became one of the most popular genres of electronic dance music in the early 2000s, there emerged a strong demand for remixes of popular songs in non-dubstep genres, to make them available to play at dubstep parties. Some of the most successful dubstep remixes include the JPod remix of Sublime's "Santeria," the Cry Wolf remix of Eminem's "Lose Yourself," and the Dubba Johnny remix of Dr. Dre featuring Eminem's "Forgot About Dre."
