Illum Sphere has been on quite a hot streak as of late, being selected to the London edition of Red Bull Music Academy, remixing Martyn, on top of promoting Manchester's hottest club nights, Hoya:Hoya. His twisted low-slung breaks have been signed to the excellent Fat City label, with his debut full-length 'Long Live The Plan' providing an excellent introduction to Illum Sphere's sound.

Illum Sphere lands on Tectonic with a bang: 'Dreamstealin' could be a piece of grain-synthesised neo-classical music, if it wasn't for the junglistic dubstep beats that convert to hip-hop breaks after the break. Backed by the wonky 'Blood Music' and an Indigo remix. Unique and recommended!

The counter-piece to Illum Shpere's recent debut album 'Long Live The Plan' proves that the young Mancunian producer has even more tricks up his sleeve. Its five tracks are denser than before, sometimes reminding of Amon Tobin with a combination of slurred, organic beats and feisty rave synths. Great!

Only the second artist to be invited to contribute a release to Martyn's 3024 label (the other being 2562 a.k.a. A Made Up Sound), Manchester's Illum Sphere is quickly gaining a massive amount of respect for his unique brand of low-swung, hip-hop-inspired, bass music mutations. Great EP!

dBridge & Instra:mental, Illum Sphere, Slugabed
As dubstep is coming of age, we are getting ready for the next wave: producers that combine influences from a variety of genres with the once revolutionary half-step breaks of dubstep. Be it the drum'n bass and electro allusions of dBridge and Instra:mental, more...
