Julio Bashmore 'Au Seve'
Care, consideration and caution are not always words associated with the fleeting world of dance music. DJs and promoters springing up and disappearing quicker than Eats Everything can guzzle a pint of the black stuff, it's tempting for the next pretty young thing getting hyped to high heaven to go for broke; rush out a series of half-finished tracks off their hard drive and sit back and wait for that cash-money to roll in. Not Bashmore.
The biggest tunes on the underground this month
A lot of water has travelled under the bridge since Art Department delivered 'Without You' on Crosstown Rebels in 2011. Tech house and deep house are still getting chewed up and spat out, with DJs dropping newly evolved forms of the sound as quickly as it's found its way into the charts and been picked up by stadium-filling titans such as Tiësto.

“There is no other music in the world where an MC stands on the stage for an hour and continuously sprays lyrics with such clarity and power over so many frequencies,” Eksman, one of the d&b scene's foremost MCs, tells DJ Mag. “The life and evolution of the drum & bass MC has grown from strength to strength over the years, and I have no doubt that down the line many more great things are in store for the future generation of MCs in our music.” Undoubtedly so.
