2010 is getting crazy now. Midrange in dubstep drove it out of from its dark origins and we’re seeing Garage make a come back. Early oo’s instrumental hip-hop which was largely bass-driven and menacing is heavily influenced by electro and dubstep. The IDM of our time should be a label for the likes of Mount Kimbie and Mike Slott. shit is intelligent. I can’t categorise bass driven music anymore without there being ambiguity.

Here’s another breaks mix for your ears – this one’s a bit more electro-ey.

One of the great things about breakbeat is that you can fuse it with electro house and it’ll still sound huge. There’s a couple of examples of that in this offering; expect more of this in the future as my two main influences are breaks and electro house. Enjoy!
