Description: "Dub" is a genre of music that originated in Jamaica in the late 1960s. It emerged as a subgenre of reggae music, characterized by remixing and manipulating existing recordings to create new versions with emphasis on instrumental tracks and heavy use of effects like echo, reverb, and delay. Dub often features deep basslines, stripped-down rhythms, and a focus on the exploration of sonic textures and space, making it a cornerstone of electronic music and influencing various genres such as dubstep and electronic dance music.
