Another new entry is "dubstep", with a first cite from 16 July 2002.

Robert Nelson, "Dissasemble Dub" _The Beat_ v18 #5/6 p 76 col 2

""Dubstep" is also quite Anglophilic in its roots, building upon a
latter-day Mad Professor-type drum beat and more subtly ringing guitar
leads that fade into the mix."
