I've been listening to some dubstep recently and I'm quite fond of it. However, I have a pretty specific request right now. I'm looking for dubstep that is mainly melodic and relaxing (preferably with some good drops in between). It also helps if it has some cheesy female vocals mixed in

My favorite dubstep song is by far:

So I'm looking for something that's similar. For example this one works, too:

I'd appreciate it if somebody could point me to any similar tracks

Bonus:
Recommend me non-dubstep music that one can chill to like this track:

I can't view youtube at the moment so forgive me if this was posted. With decaf's suggestion and the song being stuck in my head at the moment: pretty lights - finally moving. So good. Should clarify this falls under the "chill" not dubstep category. Just realized I forgot to add this to come back to decaf's response

Arkasia - Pandemonium, New World Order
Gemini - Blue, Graduation
DJ Fresh Louder - Flux Pavilion Remix (?)
Flight Facilities - Crave you
Megaclown - OMG
F.O.O.L - Destruction, Krieg
Example - Last One Standing
MGMT - Kids (Datsik remix)
These are the ones I can think off right now.
There are imo good ones and some fit what you like. I didn't add Skrillex, Rusko and those guys because I think someone else will do it and better than me probably.

your description is really vague...there are a lot of productions that meet your requirements.
i personally dont recognize skrillex as dubstep.
you can try:
skream (in for the kill remix is great)*
bar9 (midnight)*
16bit (shallow)*

and their remixes/covers of more or less known songs and im sure youl find something that fits.

* - if you want some titles to help out the search

Another Nero i really like, male vocalist though

Might be too "soft" for your liking but still a nice remix

More house-y than dubstep but still awesome

Besides F.O.O.L. everything else was amazing and the bolded ones are exactly what I was looking for when I created this thread!

Blackmill is spot on, too:

I haven't gone through reki's suggestions yet. Feedback on that later

edit: Still great responses thanks

Reki deserves the "Shot in the dark" award

This wasn't what I was looking for but it's extremely catchy:

Glad to have been of help

Also, if you want check out these 2-3 if you have time^^
Above and Beyond - You got to go (Seven Lions Remix), originally a trance piece of music but made into a dubstep remix by seven lions. I think you will like the vocals in this one (I am not a fan of vocals that much but I have exceptions. This is one of them)

Florence and the Machine - Cosmic Love (Seven Lions Remix)

Try them out if you want to that is

check out Rusko for sure

haven't met anyone that doesn't like this song

that whole album is good too.

Nero is bad ass. Their whole album is amazing. Excision is crazier melt your face stuff.

Caspa + Rusko Fabric 37 live set is easily my favorite cd to listen to tho
