Future Garage

Right i've been listening to a weird amalgamation of styles today and have come across one that is making me smile quite alot more than your average bear, it's not dubstep, it's not garage, it's not bassline and it's not house but takes influences from all of the above, I like and hate classifying music probably equally, yet I feel this is the best way of describing it, 'Future Garage'.

In a world where jacking house, pummeling techno and broken dubstep variants are evolving at a frenetic pace, I find this style is very nice to listen to and absorb.

Some artists touching into this style you'll probably know some you won't, so here we go with a little list of my favorites and a few youtube links as most of these tunes are copyrighted tightly, and I don't like taking away from any artists possible earnings, so get on Juno and Beatport and support these artists !

Firstly we have 23Hz & Numaestro - Praise Dub a beautiful 5 mins of carribean soca combined with a wicked bassline and some broken beats, warm !



Next up is Untold with his B-Side to 'Kingdom' called 'Purify', this brings back some of the beautiful wobble that i've been enjoying recently with some great percussive elements.



Now to the really housey end of things we have Julio Bashmore who right now i'm pretty convinced is my favorite artist out there currently alongside Martyn, amazing things coming from this man would recommend any of his tunes but this is a standout for me with a wicked bassline that's very european sounding, reminds me of BookaShade and M.A.N.D.Y, tunes called 'Footsteppin'' this is a must have song.



Finally opposite end of the spectrum we have Deadboy, a unique style from this man and another personal favorite of mine, chip style elements compliment the song rather than taking away from it as so many chiptunes tend to do, i.e I feel like i'm trapped in Atari, fuck this shit, when done properly it can lead to great results, cheers Deadboy, this ones called 'U Cheated' and is a belter.



Hope you enjoy the tunes ! Peace
