No drawn out intros for a start! Although i do love a good old fashioned self indulgent D+B intro.
Silly question tho. I mean, what makes the core essence of any UK born electronic dance music different? not much. We go to clubs, smoke weed, drink beer and skank out. Big tings. Nothing long, fam

well, its a different genre, cant you hear it
dubstep is not a mutated form of dnb...i find it kinda groovier than dnb and better to dance to :P

I'm not so sure.
IMO
Jungle/DnB -> UK Garage -> Grime -> Dub Step
All essentially the same.
UK Garage = Two step Garage with Jungle bassline
Grime = UK Garage were the MC becomes the part of the tunes, almost rap.
Dubstep = Grime without MCs/Slower breaks with Jungle bassline/Slow DnB?
awaits slating

modern DNB = 200hz snare
dubstep = not so much

What on earth are you on about, how loosely do your connections to eachother have to be to qualify as being "essentially the same".
they're all genres of dance music born out of the uk that's for sure, but by no means essentially the same.

According to this logic:
Disco = House = Techno = Hardcore = Jungle = DnB = UK Garage = Grime
Therefore:
Disco = Grime

Disco = Grime!

Lolleatta Holloway B2B Grime MC!

Actually nearly there if you got someone to MC over the Nubian Minds tune on Scattered Snares, but don't know where the vocals from.

The dynamics are totally different. Its walking skank music essentially. Much more chilled than jungle/d+b

i think the basslines in dubstep tend to be at the same tempo as the break whereas in dnb its usually two bars so that it isnt ultimate 180bpm turbo wobble... well i say that but thinking about it
also dubstep uses lots of synth drums, and very different beats in general with more swing and stuff
the way i see it dnb and dubstep are just vaguely similar things born from different scenes (jungle and garage) really
actually theres a police in helicopter dubstep tune where it sounds like they couldnt be bothered to find the original sample and just sampled the entire intro of the dnb one instead, so that the intro is at the dnb tempo and then it just cuts out and goes into dubstep

The big difference - the thing that makes me more interested in dubstep than almost all dnb at the moment - is that dubstep's still very open ended and you still get tunes that completely flip the script or do something really unexpected on a fairly regular basis, rather than everyone just doing slightly better versions of what's gone before.

Even in a dubstep set I'd rather hear the original because it sounds fucking incredible on a big system.

personally i much prefer the tunes that are different but rough around the edges, to the well produced but dull things. been listening to n-types radio shows (download turx: http://rinsefm.blogspot.com/) for the past few weeks and the variety is amazing
i'd even say the slightly rough/dodgy production is part of the sound in some ways

Dubstep's yawn-inducing but is only 95% shite, as compared to bleeding-eardrum-inducing dnb that's 99% shite.
