We don’t know which dubstep commercial you’re looking for, but chances are that it’s one of these. We’ve written about all of these commercials over the past few weeks and figured it’s high time to do a round-up. (Click the name of the commercial to view the original post.)

Love it or hate it, the dubstep-in-commercials trend doesn’t seem to be dying down any time soon, so there could be further round-ups in the future. Without further ado, here are the top ten commercials with dubstep songs in them:

    The music in the GoPro commercial is NOT Dubstep. I can’t believe people make that mistake, it’s an offshoot of Dubstep (in some elements), but it’s not Dubstep. Dubstep is much smoother, cleaner, and less aggressive in it’s production..

      Actually, It is very much dubstep. Came out in around 2010 if i believe? Skrillex is one of the most popular dubstep artists. Dubstep isn’t just smooth stuff, what you have just heard there is how majority of dubstep goes.

        Skrillex actually used to produce electro, and most of his tracks are not considered dubstep because they have a faster BPM than dubstep. A mix between electro & dubstep. But yes, he does produce some dubstep songs, Scary Monsters & Nice Sprites not being one of them. Anyone who has been around the scene for some time would be offended by this. Escpecially if you have seen his terrible performances live. When he hits play on itunes and crowd surfs the majority of his set. Not to mention his fans are the worst and most uneducated bunch of E-tards you can find.
