One such talent is Used Mistakes, whose track 'Mistakes' is a significant one for him. Not only does it showcase his vocals and lyrics, but it's also his biggest hit to date. Another rising star is Maze, an up-and-coming artist with an incomparable style that is quickly gaining attention.
In the realm of liquid drum and bass, Bredren's track 'Nina Dobrev' stands out with its minimalistic deep beat and atmospheric sound. Meanwhile, Captain Bass's 'Little Bit of Bass' is a Belgian jump-up tune with unique features that are sure to get feet moving.
Netsky, a name synonymous with Belgian drum and bass, has made a strong international impact. His standout demo, 'Prisma', showcases his unique production style that sets him apart from the crowd. Andromedik, another notable producer, has teamed up with Ayah Marar for 'First To Go', a favourite of Murdock due to its military old school style in the drums and Ayah Marar's top-tier vocals.
