Award-winning producer Xilent has been responsible for some of the most forward-thinking bass-bitten productions in recent times such as Next Hype and the the tempo-flexing Boss Wave. Melting down genre boundaries with each and every release, his main motifs are vibrancy, melody and really cool glasses.

Masters of the 130 bass sound, Bristol-based duo Tommy and Jammo peddle an instantly distinctive dark groove that resonates with all corners. Launching on Mindstep Records in 2011, they've gone on to demonstrate their skills on labels such as Ram, 877 and, most recently, Black Butter who've signed them exclusively.

Award-winning duo from the UK and Norway, Calyx & TeeBee both carved their own distinct sounds as solo artists before joining forces in 2004. Two albums, many singles and one exclusive deal with Ram Records late and they're regarded as one of the best partnerships in drum & bass. Their early work inspired Noisia to produce and their six-deck-two-mixer shows are the stuff of scene legend. Serious D&B soldiers.
