'Midnight Request Line' might have become the 'Planet Rock' of dubstep – but that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Skream’s musical output. Soundtracking the sounds of suburban Croydon, Skream’s trademark minimal sound found a resounding ear with urban youth around the world. Gravity-defying beats and pads, all buoyed by a tidal wave of sub bass, make Skream’s music perfect for walking across the moon or accompanying an experiment gone wrong set in a Martian research bunker. Whether he’s moulding cosmic Indian flavours, electro dancehall, or skankin’ reggae – it all gets squeezed through the Skream filter and ends up sounding like it’s been beamed from the dark side of some asteroid. And in Skream, everyone can hear outer space.
