waddup everybody this is Marshall, recently 18, living in Los Angeles. I'm an electronic music producer trying to complete my first ep (called "Walls ep"). My biggest influences are Skrillex, Calvin Harris, Porter Robinson, Madeon, Wolfgang Gartner, Seven Lions, Flume (just speaking electronic) and otherwise: two door cinema club, machineheart, Glades, Meg Myers, Kendrick Lamar, Chance the Rapper, Mavado, Bob Marley, and some old ska music from people like the skatallites. Basically a lot of indie-rock, hip, and reggae. If you're gonna call me mainstream about Skrillex and Calvin Harris, you can save it. Thanks for accepting me into the forum guys, and if you live in Los Angeles/Santa Monica and you're looking to spend some studio time with another cool producer, I work in a studio space that's welcome to anybody that wants to collab (Of course I would meet you in a very public place before you ever came to my house but..that's beside the point). Anyway, I look forward to talking to the people here, cheers.

It's not that crazy when you consider that dubstep is heavily influenced by reggae (obviously the main thing is the """approx""" 140 BPM halftime beat with the offbeat accented). If you listen to songs like "Bonfire" by Knife Party or "Ragga Bomb" by Skrillex you can see how much reggae influence you can find in a dubstep track.
Respectfully,
Marshall

you could be right there with the reggae influence because back in the very early 1980s before UB40 were well known
they remixed a lot of songs and called them 'dubstep remixes',
and back in the day UB40 were a real reggae band
