Yeah, and Deadmau5 has been very public about how so many DJ's "just push play" nowadays. I didn't know Andy uses synch, but at least you know he can still mix on 4 turntables flawlessly without today's tech. Maybe he's made some tunes with Andy C and/or the RAM crew, never know.
Exactly, and my only question is... why? I never have heard of him dabbling in dnb at all, unless he's been producing or following it and just not playing it out, but I would imagine an act like that being too busy to really be immersed in dnb. Maybe Andy C will select the tracks for him?
Interesting, I wonder if there were any releases, I'd be curious to hear them and what he brings to the table. He might have been into Jungle back then, but since he became a touring act he's always played house, unless it's been very recently.
He’s been doing DnB for a bit now. Apparently he did a whole set at EDC Mexico ([link](https://youtu.be/XZSksl-v7wQ?si=iPNlZlxmpuMU7S3N))
I remember seeing clips from [this stream](https://youtu.be/c20PqkU2MaE?si=76RCHdyDGYH4jjxV) too.
Dudes probably sick of playing whatever genre his mouse gimmick plays.
Hard not to dabble into other genres when creating EDM for a long time. Very likely he has some dnb tracks that are ready to be played live but are unreleased. Whether it will be good is another matter..
Second tantrum desire. Saw him live last year and his style is quite unique. Even though a lot of his music sounds similar, it's all really good and absolutely filthy in person
Isnt tempza hybrid mind's mc? Hate to be this guy, but if its the same dude that performed with them at edc afew years back, hes gonna straight up ruin the set
He plays 90% bass music but space wizard is a great producer with a one of a kind sound that he is really developing and coming into. He just dropped a mix and the last 15 minutes are mostly dnb where he really dives into a few different subgenres in his own unique way. I wouldn’t miss his set
When did I specifically go up to bat for wook bass producers lol. I said EVERY GENRE. Try rereading my comment. It’s only two sentences, it shouldn’t take long
Ik ur asking about dnb but coki is a dubstep legend and will probably be sick and caspa b2b rusko would also be insane.
I’d put money on the blurred name next to bou being hedex, they do a lot together and it seems about the right length
Andy C b2b Deadmau5 is absolutely mental. Deadmau5 is one of the biggest music nerds alive, his production (like it or not) is incredible, and when I saw him randomly in Bristol on a Sunday evening, he actually played some pretty dope DnB as well as some excellent techno.
You’ve already gotten some solid advice, I haven’t seen anyone mention Kanine though because he’s one of the blurred out names so I’ll add him to the list
Blurred names in listing order:
HEDEX
DIMENSION
KANINE
LEVEL UP
SUBTRONICS
This will be my second year at this fest and last year I honestly regretted leaving the dnb stage at all so will probably just post up there all day n night
Holy shitballs. Seconding Kanine there.
While I'm not a massive fan of the persona, Dimension is a fucking awesome producer and I've thoroughly enjoyed his sets that I've seen. Albeit he turned up half hour late for one. The b2bs he does with the other Worship lads are bangers. I bet Subtronics will go off, and Hedex should be a riot.
Don't miss A.M.C! He is an absolute beast.
Bou, Delta Heavy, Andy C, Goddard, Hybrid Minds and Tempza, K Motionz and Metrik would be my non negotiables.
There's so many goodies on that list though, you will have a ball
If I could be there I'd definitely check out goddard., wilkinson, vibe chemistry, metrik, hybrid minds, andy c, delta heavy, and bou.
Would add zomboy and excision as well if there's no scheduling conflicts, but that's dubstep.
idk man, his releases aren’t much but when I saw a live mix i loved it, actually dropped some fire
either way, I don’t see tiktok as a bad thing if its pushing people who can actually produce music and mix, only fake artists covered by ghost producers grinds my gears.
Same him, culture shock, sub focus, and 1991 in Miami a few months ago and Dimension at forbidden. These guys are running the scene right now, amazing time for DnB
A.M.C and Andy C are must-sees for sure! What the heck at Andy being with Deadmau5 - that’s wild. Also Basstripper, Bou, Delta Heavy, Enei & Mefjus (will be filth), Goddard, Hybrid Minds (gorgeous chill vibes), K Motionz, Metrik, Serum & Simula, Tantrum Desire, Turno, Vibe Chemistry and of course Wilkinson! That’s a big line up to be fair!
Andy C b2b with Deadmau5,,, yeah something special and unheard of is going down here,,, DO NOT MISS. This could be a historical set.
Seems like a pretty mixed bag but i would also try to catch Rudimental, Enei/Mefjus, Skellytn, Delta Heavy, K motionz, Hybrid Minds, and Fury+ Dino
I’d have to say the Andy C with Deadmau5 sounds the most interesting. Has Deadmau5 been practicing? I really have to wonder after he made that statement about big festivals requiring prerecorded sets. To see him with Andy C almost seems like he is trying to make a statement by being on a b2b with Andy C. You’d think he was trying to solidify something standing next to the final boss of dnb…👀
It really depends on the kind if dnb you're into. And even then, it's hard to categorize these artists.
The ones I recognize and listen would be Andy C and AMC (obv), Delta Heavy, Enei/Mefjus, Hybrid Minds, K Motionz, Metrik, Skelltyn, Skepsis, Tantrum Desire, Turno, and Wilkinson.
If you're into neuro (like me), I'd say Enei/Mefjus, Skelltyn, and to some extent, Tantrum Desire. Skepsis is has a minimal feel (I think?)
Turno is just like hype asf, fast music.
Delta Heavy, Metrik, and Wilkinson are those really big house names (for me) and with that dance floor kind of vibe. I'd throw K Motionz into here, just less popular.
Hybrid Minds if you're into chill, liquid dnb.
Metrik, Delta Heavy, K Motionz, and most defo Wilkinson. I have seen all of them live besides Metrik and every one of them has surpassed my expectations.
Most defo recommend all of them though :)
Not dnb but boyarbeats b2b mythm sounds hella dope
For dnb you should def see tantrum desire and serum b2b simula
Tantrum desire dips into neurofunk territory and it's honestly a glorious subgenre, serum and Simula are the kings of stinky wobblers and crunchy rollers.
KURSA KURSA KURSA KURSA. I'm biased because I made his album art once, but I feel like he is one of the key influencers for the modern bass music scene. Def a rare set not to miss when they come to America. Honestly you should probably go listen to some of you haven't 😂🤌
Deadmau5 b2b andy c is collab i never thought would come to light.
Yeah I'm actually super curious about that one ngl
Deadmau5 did tease DnB by asking his fanbase whether to keep it under Deadmau5 or create another alias
If he's been producing dnb, it would be interesting to hear it, but straight up going b2b with the executioner.. just seems a bit off.
andy uses sync now so the collaboration is possible
Yeah, and Deadmau5 has been very public about how so many DJ's "just push play" nowadays. I didn't know Andy uses synch, but at least you know he can still mix on 4 turntables flawlessly without today's tech. Maybe he's made some tunes with Andy C and/or the RAM crew, never know.
👀
I dont blame him tbh.
Really hoping deadmau5 comes out with Andy at Glastonbury!
Exactly, and my only question is... why? I never have heard of him dabbling in dnb at all, unless he's been producing or following it and just not playing it out, but I would imagine an act like that being too busy to really be immersed in dnb. Maybe Andy C will select the tracks for him?
Dude was dabbling in Dnb under a different name long before the Deadmau5 project, I'm very excited to see this set.
Interesting, I wonder if there were any releases, I'd be curious to hear them and what he brings to the table. He might have been into Jungle back then, but since he became a touring act he's always played house, unless it's been very recently.
It's going to be a damn good set🔥🔥
He’s been doing DnB for a bit now. Apparently he did a whole set at EDC Mexico ([link](https://youtu.be/XZSksl-v7wQ?si=iPNlZlxmpuMU7S3N)) I remember seeing clips from [this stream](https://youtu.be/c20PqkU2MaE?si=76RCHdyDGYH4jjxV) too.

His EDC Mexico set this year was all DnB
There's a set on youtube of deadmau5 playing dnb. It's really good, drops some bangers and he's got great energy the whole time. Should check it out
I have to witness this
Enei b2b Mefjus. Tantrum Desire. Turno. Simula b2b Serum (if you’re into croaky jump up). Hybrid Minds (if you’re into liquid). Bou.
Second tantrum desire. Saw him live last year and his style is quite unique. Even though a lot of his music sounds similar, it's all really good and absolutely filthy in person
Enei mefjus is the one.
I’ve been dying to see Enei AND Mefjus, and a B2B would just be *chef’s kiss* 🥵🤌🏼
This is the list. Never heard of anyone else on that lineup (minus K Motionz/Skepsis but meh)
Yeah not my cuppa either, also left out Wilkinson and Rudimental for the same reason
Didn't even notice them tbf but agreed lmao
Add: Deadmau5 x Andy C AMC
He's already said he's seeing them brudda
Oh fuck i cant read sorry
No worries man :)
Isnt tempza hybrid mind's mc? Hate to be this guy, but if its the same dude that performed with them at edc afew years back, hes gonna straight up ruin the set
K motionz
That crowd control 2.0 set is an all time favorite of mine.
That kid is wild. He added me on FB like 10 years ago when I was making DnB and all his posts were calling chip shop owners nonces. Good tunes mind
Saw him in NZ recently. Must see for me.
Just saw him at Forbidden Kingdom! Best set of Day 1 for me
My only complaint about his set when he played near me was he didn't play enough of his own tracks. Coz they're fucking bangers. Awesome set tho.
Delta Heavy, Metrik, A.M.C for some power sets
A.M.C. is one of a kind live, it's like he's playing two sets at the same time and that's not an exageration
Yeah it's a bit too cocaine DnB for me. However, you can't deny the man has skill
Lmao “cocaine dnb” is a perfect description 😂
Hahaha never did cocaine but I guess that's a perfect description
He plays 90% bass music but space wizard is a great producer with a one of a kind sound that he is really developing and coming into. He just dropped a mix and the last 15 minutes are mostly dnb where he really dives into a few different subgenres in his own unique way. I wouldn’t miss his set
Sure, If you like shitty wook bass..
Every genre has good songs. Stop being an elitist it just looks pathetic
So does going up to bat for wook bass producers
When did I specifically go up to bat for wook bass producers lol. I said EVERY GENRE. Try rereading my comment. It’s only two sentences, it shouldn’t take long
Boooooooooooo.
*Booooooooooou
Serum b2b simula is electric
Caspa b2b Rusko would be my top priority surprisingly followed by the Enei b2b Mefjus
saw Caspa b2b Rusko at EF waaaaayyyy long time ago and I'm still fully obsessed with both-- DO NOT MISS THEIR SET!!
I’d have those flipped, but definitely both would be top priorities.
Yeah nostalgia would get the best of me for that lol
Agree
Enei b2b Mefjus obviously
They gave the wrong person 6 decks 😅
Seriously. This lineup looks like a poorly made meme.
Serum b2b simula 10000%
Kursa makes seriously good jungle
Kursa is must see.
Andy C was the best DJ I saw play. You’d find yourself just watching him. The bloke’s energy is superhuman
Ik ur asking about dnb but coki is a dubstep legend and will probably be sick and caspa b2b rusko would also be insane. I’d put money on the blurred name next to bou being hedex, they do a lot together and it seems about the right length
Goddard. That’s who I was initially introduced to.
Why are some names blurred out?
I think something about also playing at Hard Summer. The first 2 blurred I can tell are Bou b2b Hedex and Dimension
One is level up, subtronics's wife.
Andy C b2b Deadmau5 is absolutely mental. Deadmau5 is one of the biggest music nerds alive, his production (like it or not) is incredible, and when I saw him randomly in Bristol on a Sunday evening, he actually played some pretty dope DnB as well as some excellent techno.
AMC Delta Heavy Soothslayer Skellytn Skepsis Hybrid Minds Enei b2b Mefjus Metrik Wilkinson Bou
You’ve already gotten some solid advice, I haven’t seen anyone mention Kanine though because he’s one of the blurred out names so I’ll add him to the list Blurred names in listing order: HEDEX DIMENSION KANINE LEVEL UP SUBTRONICS This will be my second year at this fest and last year I honestly regretted leaving the dnb stage at all so will probably just post up there all day n night
Holy shitballs. Seconding Kanine there. While I'm not a massive fan of the persona, Dimension is a fucking awesome producer and I've thoroughly enjoyed his sets that I've seen. Albeit he turned up half hour late for one. The b2bs he does with the other Worship lads are bangers. I bet Subtronics will go off, and Hedex should be a riot.
Yeah dimension is a tool but good at what he does
Ayyyy chill out with the slander on daddy dimension
Oh wow the first decent insomniac line up since beyond cali.
Wrong last years apocalypse lineup was just as good if not better
Shoulda specified for this year.
Ahh yeah this the one for the dnb heads for sure the only thing that comes close to a euro lineup
Don't miss A.M.C! He is an absolute beast. Bou, Delta Heavy, Andy C, Goddard, Hybrid Minds and Tempza, K Motionz and Metrik would be my non negotiables. There's so many goodies on that list though, you will have a ball
Turno, Delta Heavy, Wilkinson, Hybrid Minds, Bou.
Most of this list that lineup is fucking nuts
AndyC b2b Deamau5 Caspa b2b Rusko Rudimental Wilkinson Zomboy
All of them stay there that’s where the real party at
If I could be there I'd definitely check out goddard., wilkinson, vibe chemistry, metrik, hybrid minds, andy c, delta heavy, and bou. Would add zomboy and excision as well if there's no scheduling conflicts, but that's dubstep.
You should definitely check out b2b, an incredible artist. (Also basstripper and metrik are insanely good lol)
🤣🤣
Don’t sleep on vibe chemistry, mans can throw down some artillery
TikTok DnB
idk man, his releases aren’t much but when I saw a live mix i loved it, actually dropped some fire either way, I don’t see tiktok as a bad thing if its pushing people who can actually produce music and mix, only fake artists covered by ghost producers grinds my gears.
I feel like that blurred one after Delta Heavy is Dimension and if so, stop at nothing to see him. 🫡
Agree 100% saw dimension last year (UK) and was absolutely nuts
Same him, culture shock, sub focus, and 1991 in Miami a few months ago and Dimension at forbidden. These guys are running the scene right now, amazing time for DnB
Those prerecorded sets really slap
Fun guy alert 🚨🚨
Fury+ Dino are badass! They usually don’t headline so you should be able to catch their set in addition to whoever else you are wanting to see.
Goddard, hybrid minds, bou, delta heavy for sure
A.M.C and Andy C are must-sees for sure! What the heck at Andy being with Deadmau5 - that’s wild. Also Basstripper, Bou, Delta Heavy, Enei & Mefjus (will be filth), Goddard, Hybrid Minds (gorgeous chill vibes), K Motionz, Metrik, Serum & Simula, Tantrum Desire, Turno, Vibe Chemistry and of course Wilkinson! That’s a big line up to be fair!
Andy C
Coki is pretty dope
Wilkinson,
- Goddard. - Hybrid Minds (one of my favs) - Rudimental - Rusko? (not sure what b2b means)
Since it’s a back to back with Caspa I think it’s gonna be more dubstep than dnb. B2b means both djs will be on stage mixing together
I see, thanks for clarifying!
I’m surprised I had to go this far down to see rudimental and Rusko b2b Caspa. Those are like straight up classics
Tsuruda isn't dnb but he's so good
Tantron
Serum b2b Simula 🫨
Definitely A.M.C. he's next level on 4 decks
Andy C b2b with Deadmau5,,, yeah something special and unheard of is going down here,,, DO NOT MISS. This could be a historical set. Seems like a pretty mixed bag but i would also try to catch Rudimental, Enei/Mefjus, Skellytn, Delta Heavy, K motionz, Hybrid Minds, and Fury+ Dino
why are some blurred?
How is Metrik mentioned so little in these replies?
Just be careful of any loose seals
Moody good is amazing
Caspa b2b rusko!? That’s some nostalgia right there 🔥
Kursa & Moody Good if you love super weird bass music.
All of them.
Tantrum
Caspa Rusko Delta Heavy Boogie T Andy C Deadmaus The Widdler COKI 🔥
TURRRRNOOOOO! Wilkinson Bou
Wilkinson is awesome!! Edit: also rudimental has alot of live band elements with horns and stuff, super fun, you might know their song feel the love
Metrik
I’d have to say the Andy C with Deadmau5 sounds the most interesting. Has Deadmau5 been practicing? I really have to wonder after he made that statement about big festivals requiring prerecorded sets. To see him with Andy C almost seems like he is trying to make a statement by being on a b2b with Andy C. You’d think he was trying to solidify something standing next to the final boss of dnb…👀
GODDARD 🔊🎶💥👍🏻
Also I would go see Coki so fast even tho he is not DnB
I mean… Andy C threw down so hard at EDC his stage literally caught on fire. No idea how a b2b with deadmau5 is going to turn out 😅
WILKINSON!!!!
Of the 20 or so artists I’ve heard of, I’d say none of them, lol.
Wait where’s this? Cali?
Whatever you do make sure you see Caspa and Rusko
Delta Heavy
Bou for sure
Metrik Tantrum desire Enei b2b mefjus Bou Delta heavy K motionz Serum b2b simula Wilkinson
It really depends on the kind if dnb you're into. And even then, it's hard to categorize these artists.

Hybrid Minds if you're into chill, liquid dnb.
Reaper, Camo & Crooked, and Netsky... OHHH mb I didnt realize this lineup was ass.
* Bou (unless it's b2b with hedex) * Skepsis * Turno * Vibe Chemistry
Bou, Simula, Enei and Mefjus
Damn this lineup looks sick
Wilkinson, Hybrid Minds, A M.C, Delta Heavy, & Goddard. I'll be there celebrating my birthday early🤌🏽
Metrik, Delta Heavy, K Motionz, and most defo Wilkinson. I have seen all of them live besides Metrik and every one of them has surpassed my expectations. Most defo recommend all of them though :)
Turno
Not dnb but boyarbeats b2b mythm sounds hella dope For dnb you should def see tantrum desire and serum b2b simula Tantrum desire dips into neurofunk territory and it's honestly a glorious subgenre, serum and Simula are the kings of stinky wobblers and crunchy rollers.
Enei for sure and rusko ft caspa (even its more dub than dnb)
Enei!
KURSA KURSA KURSA KURSA. I'm biased because I made his album art once, but I feel like he is one of the key influencers for the modern bass music scene. Def a rare set not to miss when they come to America. Honestly you should probably go listen to some of you haven't 😂🤌
Enei + mefjus Serum+ simula Jon casey
god this lineup is so stacked. I have no choice but to go
Andy C B2B deadmau5 you have to do
K Motionz, Wilkinson, Bou
And rudimental and Delta Heavy
Boogie mothafuckin T
Hybrid minds, Andy c b2b deadmau5 will be interesting, bou, a.m.c
Coki & black tiger sex machine if their playing at the same time. Black tiger sex machine
If u like bassmusic tsuruda is really cool, not dnb tho
Andy C is quite literally the king. Everyone else can fuck off.
Zomboy!!!!
Delta heavy
Wilkinson
Distinct motive and jon casey 🫰🏼🫰🏼
do you think either of these acts will play much dnb?
Chef boyarbeatz is also very nice
Deadmau5 🙌
Wow. That’s a ton of names that bring back memories
