Riddim dubstep is the best music genre ever.
You could say that electronic music and modern music are extremely bloated o algo but I believe that art should be allowed to be as good and big as possible when in hands of creative people.
There's a piracy community where they release or ask for releases or dubplates called xTrill { Not that interested tbh, artists that hide their music behind heavy anti-leak protections or similar usually are not that good anyway, there are a lot of unknown and talented people that release stuff for free on soundcloud and other places }

This is assuming you want to make it CC0 without any copyright issues.
All samples and presets on LMMS are CC0 (probably, someone said that on a forum) and you can do a lot of things with them if you're smart and creative enough. You don't need a lot of music theory. These kind of music genres are not so much about the rhythm, chords, etc. but about sound design. If that wasn't true there wouldn't be a load of european teens on soundcloud uploading things made with FL studio, vital, maelstrom and lots of samples and movie clips o algo.
There is an individual that has made a lot of tracks mostly with LMMS and some of them are pretty good so it is definitely possible to do it.
If we had choose the best riddim producer as of most unique tunes it would be object61.
{ I don't remember much, it was something I read about in 2020. But here's a brief overview. You'll also want to look at wikipedia }
Basically some guys from the UK started to experiment with basses in jamaican dub or something in 2003, what some call classic dubstep which almost nobody makes nowadays because it's boring. Then in 2010 o algo some producers cranked it up and made it a lot more aggressive. Lots of them made something called heavy dubstep or brostep (which is a cringe genre and we don't care about that unlike the based genre riddim) One of them even became extremely popular for a couple of years and then went to underground again cuz normies couldn't stand the sound. There were other guys as well that made a different kind of dubstep that was very repetitive and used screechy basses, and some guys decided to call it "riddim", probably from "rhythm", which is kind of stupid but at the same time it sounds cool as fuck. Many producers interested in dubstep saw riddim and they loved it and made a lot of music, some created darker and harsher tracks which some call deathstep, others wanted to make it extremely heavy and they call it tearout, others wanted more melodic and sentimental tracks and called it melodic/liquid dubstep/riddim etc. Some even went the path of no rules and combined harsh noise with dubstep and IDM or some shit that doesn't even have a name.
Unfortunately it's extremely rare to find libre riddim tracks. Some artists seem like they release stuff in high quality for free and have no problem if you use their tracks on mixes if you give credit and some release project files, but nothing is truly public domain or CC0.
Also for completeness here is a list of talented biological women in riddim:
(Well there actually is a couple of great tracks made by women: this one, and maybe this one)
And here is a list of great mexican riddim producers:
Also watchout for ghostproducing.
