ill start it off simply by saying that dubstep has modulated bass and a much slower tempo while dnb uses various drum kits, usually little or no modulated bass and a much faster tempo

Its not about knowing all, its about a bit of basic knowlege. I'll let you learn for yourself:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubstep
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_and_bass

Lots of good stuff in those wiki pages. Sorry, I'm stressed as fuck. I have no reason to be on NS. Anyway, enjoy.

id say dubstep (i havent looked up this artist so idk and idc what they consider themselves). this is simply classifying by my own standards: its a slower tempo and there is plenty of modulated bass.

Dubstep till 1:38, tempo change, DNB till the end.

Most likely this song was produced for live sets. Bringing the speed up from 140 to 174 is a huge pain in the ass, why not just write a song that does it for you??

And just to make your head spin, here is a genre called Drumstep. Around the same speed as DNB, but with a dubstep feel, the 1,3 pattern.

Give your ear some time, you'll start to recognize the nuances after a while...
