Amazing overdubbing on his part. Meaty harmonies too.

I may be being derpy here, but on Chrome, I can't see YT videos. They work fine on YT, just not here...

Yeah, I have the same problem. I think the [ youtube ] tag works fine, as opposed to the [ yt ] tag:

Music is the art or science of combining vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion.

Its evaluato-time! Imma start on the last clause first.

Dubstep can only explain a very small range of emotions. It qualifies, but it is inferior.
There is very little harmony to be found in the vast majority of dubstep I am familiar with. It exists, but it is inferior.
Beauty of form is too vague for me to evaluate, but personally, I'm able to find structure in some dubstep that I like.

My conclusion: Dubstep is valid music, but I feel it is too limited to warrant the explosion in popularity as some kind of better music. Comparing it to other kinds of music that were also considered undesirable at one point like rock 'n roll is completely invalid; every single kind of art, if it is valid in any way whatsoever (regardless of whether or not its good), receives the same kind of attention. Since just about everything is treated this way to some extent, it is invalid as a measure of how good a genre is.

tl;dr: You're all wrong.

I just stated a fact that you agreed upon, therefore I am truthful.

Voice is a type of instrument. Almost all non-percussive sounds mimic the human voice. This means your post was repetitive and lost meaning, so I am using this as a half-assed excuse to say 'YOU, SIR, ARE WRONG!'

Working on it right now.
Edit: seems to be a difference based on javascript implementation. The embed isn't reloading it's src after the javascript replaces it...still working on it.
