okay, first off:
Skrillex/Skism/DatsiK/Exicision isn't dubstep, it's post-dubstep, so it's more focused on midrange sound with more aggressive tendencies. Original dubstep is stuff like Skream, Benga, Hatcha, Lost, Digital Mystikz, Rusko (well rusko has a bit of both really) and Mala. It originally started off from a jamaican form of music called dub, which is kind of Reggae's cousin.
If you're into both I'd highly recommend 100% Pure Dubstep (both albums) from DJ Hatcha, as well as the Ministry of Sound - The Sound of Dubstep (1-4, and Darker) and if you're into older more chilled stuff take a look at things like the two Babylon volumes from Rusko, the Skreamizm EP's (1-6), anything by Digital Mystikz, the Box of Dub series, etc.
if you're specifically looking for post-dubstep (Brostep), the Borgore Ruined Dubstep albums are a good place to start, then go onto releases from people like datsik, excision, skism, skrillex, mark instinct, bare, liquid stranger, vaski. Bar 9 is probably the best one to give you an introduction to pretty filthy sound, after that Borgore is your best bet. If you want more dance-esque and hybrid styles, give Flux Pavilion/Doctor P/Roksonix (basically anyone from Circus Records) and their newer stuff a try. Friction, Example, FuntCase and Evol Intent are also worth a look.
If you'd elaborate more on what you're looking for I could give you a list of albums too ^^
Edit: oh and rusko's O.M.G., and Songs albums are definitely worth a look-see.
