Within the world of deep dubstep, few producers have built a reputation as quietly and consistently as Kercha. Since emerging through DNO Records nearly a decade ago, the Russian producer has become a staple of the underground thanks to his unmistakable blend of cinematic atmospheres, weighty subs, and intricate percussion.

In an era where the internet moves faster than ever, Mystic Methods has found a way to turn viral culture into a festival experience. The bass music duo has carved out a unique lane by transforming iconic social media moments, trending audio clips, and internet-famous sound bites into explosive edits that hit just as hard as any traditional dubstep anthem.

Few artists have exploded through the riddim underground quite like roi*. The French producer has become one of the most talked-about names in the scene by doing something that should not work on paper: making some of the heaviest trench records around while injecting them with personality, melody, and a sense of fun that immediately stands out in a sea of the same sound design.
