Hello, and welcome to the first installment in our synodically recurring mix series 'Styles'.

A brand new mix series aimed at showcasing unique styles and subgenres nestled amongst the broad landscape of electronic dance music. Throughout this series, you will be treated to a tasteful blend of mixing skills and proper tracklist curation provided by the in-house G.R.A crew, as we explore the breadth and depth of what electronic dance music culture has to offer. To kick things off, we have an magnificent exhibition of the halftime style from one of our founding members, Alejo. As you listen, you will find this 38-minute journey tapping into various eras in the history of halftime music as it guides you on a journey of bumps, bops and grooves. Enjoy!

"Halftime is a subgenre of drum and bass music that combines elements of hip-hop, dubstep, and other electronic music styles. It is characterized by a slower tempo (usually around 85-95 BPM) and a heavy emphasis on bass and drums. The drums are often syncopated and have a more hip-hop feel than traditional drum and bass. Halftime DnB also often incorporates elements of dubstep, such as wobbles and distorted basslines."

Hello again!

Time to lock in for the next rousing episode in our new mix series 'Styles'. For those of you who missed the memo the first time around, 'Styles' is brand new mix series aimed at showcasing unique styles and subgenres nestled amongst the broad landscape of electronic dance music. For our second installment, we have a wicked 33 minute mix of Unified Beats prepared by GRA resident and certified beatsmith, Mr. Scissors. [ @snipsnipmusic ]

"Unified Beats is a contemporary style of music that has deep roots in trap, hip-hop and R&B. It is often characterized by heavy resampling of recognizable music and large dynamic of tempos, aesthetics and rhythmic patterns. Despite its roots, Unified Beats is a subgenre that pulls from nearly all existing styles of music including jazz, rap, dubstep and other niche electronic dance styles such as bass music."

If you've been with us for the first two episodes, you're probably starting to get an idea of what this mix series is all about. For all you first timers, 'Styles' is new mix series curated by the GRA.audio crew and aimed at showcasing unique styles and subgenres nestled amongst the broad landscape of electronic dance music. On this episode, we've got a blistering 32 minute mix of Glitch-Hop selections brought to you by GRA founding member TwoThrows. [ @twothrows ]

"Glitch-Hop is a subgenre of electronic music that typically ranges from 90-110 (aka Midtempo) and usually utilizes a breakbeat pattern. Generally, Glitch-Hop blends hip-hop rhythms with "glitch" music techniques, characterized by its use of distorted sounds, chopped samples, and stuttering rhythms, often with a focus on creative sound design and experimentation. Dating back to the late 1990s, electronic music artists and producers such as Machinedrum, Prefuse 73, and Push Button Object began to combine 'glitch' elements with instrumental hip-hop beats giving the subgenre its original sound."

Hello, hello and welcome back to our recurring mix series 'Styles'; a sonic journey aimed at showcasing unique styles and subgenres nestled amongst the broad landscape of electronic dance music. For our fourth episode, we are turning up the pace and chilling out the place with our good friend and GRA.audio resident, Jetlag, [ @jetlag_audio ], as he guides us on a 34 minute exploration in the world of Liquid Drum & Bass. Sit back and get comfortable as the liquid vibes on this new episode are sure to please.

"Liquid Drum & Bass, often abbreviated as Liquid DnB, represents a more melodic, emotive, and atmospheric subgenre of drum & bass. It was developed as an antidote to some of the harder, more aggressive forms of DnB, bringing a fresh, soulful, and often jazzy flavor to the scene. If regular DnB is like a strong cup of coffee, liquid DnB is more like smooth hot chocolate. This style focuses on musical elements that make you feel good. It uses gentle melodies, flowing bass lines, and often includes real instruments or singing. Liquid DnB started in the early 2000s when artists wanted to make drum and bass more relaxing. They added elements from jazz, soul, and even classical music. The result was a style that works just as well at home as it does in clubs. Artists like High Contrast and London Electricity showed that drum and bass could be both gentle and powerful at the same time. Their tracks often tell stories through music, making them perfect for both new fans and old-school listeners."

Greetings and welcome back to our synodically recurring mix series 'Styles'. A new mix series aimed at showcasing unique styles and subgenres nestled amongst the broad landscape of electronic dance music. For our fifth episode, GRA co-founder, Suspect, has curated a palpitating 33 minute mix that dives headfirst into the high energy world of Neurobreaks. Be sure to lock in and bump up the volume a notch for this thrilling journey!

"Neurobreaks (AKA neuro breaks) is an aggressive subgenre of Breakbeat that combines the genre's grooves and rhythms with the sound design of Neurofunk, particularly the characteristic reese bass. Often sitting around the 120-140 BPM range, the genre has its origins in Nu Skool Breaks and its subgenre Tearout Breaks, and it can effectively be considered a slowed down form of neurofunk. Culprate’s 2017 song "Phantom" is considered to be foundational to the sound of neurobreaks, although the idea of combining breakbeat with neurofunk had been conceptualized on online forums before. Other notable pioneers include Screamarts, Pluvio and AKOV who founded Symbiotik Records in 2021."

Hello again! Welcome back to our synodically recurring mix series 'Styles'; a mix series aimed at showcasing unique styles and subgenres nestled amongst the broad landscape of electronic dance music. Digging deep into the depths of electronic dance music, we find ourselves at the common denominator of "low and slow." With our sixth episode, we will be delving into the depths of the subgenre know as Leftfield 140, courtesy of G.R.A. resident DJ, Symtek.

"Leftfield 140 is a style that refers quite literally to it's own name. In essence, it is a style of music that resides at 140 BPM, but strays from the more typical dubstep style that has dominated the tempo for the last 2 decades. With a contemporary rebirth in the early 2020's, Leftfield 140 tends to include a wide variety of influences from across the musical spectrum. ["Over the last few years, 140 has become a broad term that represents more than just dubstep. It stands for an entire culture of bass music influenced by dubstep, grime, and trap. The boundaries between these genres continue to blur, so having one term to hold it all makes sense." - Pieter Grauwels / DUPLOC]

Yoooo - Welcome back once again to our synodically recurring mix series, ‘Styles’! As we cross the halfway point in our 2025 Styles journey, we circle back to Ep. 01 curator and GRA founding member Alejo. For this episode, he presents to us a tasteful 40 minute selection of tunes from the classic electronic subgenre known as Jungle. Whether you are unfamiliar with the genre or a seasoned raver from back in the good old days the 90s, this mix is sure to be a high energy treat. 

“Emerging from the urban landscapes of London in the early 1990s, jungle music was a fusion of various electronic styles, including breakbeat, hardcore, and reggae. Characterized by its frenetic breakbeats, heavy basslines, and chopped-up samples, jungle music captured the energy and diversity of the city's multicultural communities. One of the defining features of jungle music was its use of the "Amen break," a drum break sampled from the track "Amen, Brother" by The Winstons. This iconic breakbeat, with its rapid-fire snare drums and syncopated rhythms, became a cornerstone of jungle music, providing the backbone for countless tracks in the genre.”

What's good GRA gang? Welcome back to our synodically recurring mix series, 'Styles'! For our eighth episode, we have an absolutely jam packed 32 minute Deep Dub mix from our very own Mr. Scissors featuring an astounding 29 tracks. Get ready to strap in for another heater of a mix as we explore the depth of variety and style within the 140 realm. 

"Deep dub, often simply referred to as dubstep initially, traces its roots to the vibrant music scene of Kingston, Jamaica in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It emerged from reggae as a distinctive style of remixing and manipulating existing recordings. It is typically characterized by its slower tempo, emphasis on sub bass and atmospheric soundscapes, and often darker, more brooding atmosphere. With it's emergence from the early dubstep scene, it is known for its minimalist approach, hypnotic beats, and spacious feel. At its inception, Burial emerged as a key figure, crafting atmospheric soundscapes that define deep dubstep. His ability to evoke emotions through ethereal melodies and haunting vocal samples set a high standard for the genre. Labels like Hyperdub became synonymous with this subgenre, curating a catalog of music that explores the depths of sonic possibility. In the modern landscape of deep dubstep, artists like Kaiju and labels like Deep Dark & Dangerous continue to expand the genre's horizons. Their productions delve into uncharted territories, exploring the darkest corners of bass music while maintaining a sense of elegance and restraint. Alongside them, artists like Sleeper and labels like Chestplate contribute to the ongoing evolution of deep dubstep, ensuring its enduring appeal among dedicated listeners."

Happy Autumn and welcome back to our recurring mix series 'Styles'; a sonic journey aimed at showcasing unique styles and subgenres nestled amongst the broad landscape of electronic dance music. For this, our ninth episode, we are excited to share with you a fresh new mix from GRA co-founder and resident DJ, TwoThrows, as he explores a burgeoning new subgenre, Bassline Dubstep.

"Bassline Dubstep is a style that draws heavy inspiration from the old school and fuses it with copious aspects of more contemporary electronic dance genres. This style, often hovering around 140 bpm, is typically characterized by its utilization of slower halftime dubstep drum patterns along with faster feeling double-time hi hat and percussion rhythms, producing its distinguishing sound. With an emphasis on leading basslines and heavy vocal sample usage, Bassline Dubstep will often draw inspiration from adjacent styles such as 2-Step, Grime and Drill just to name a few. The genre has made waves in the mid 2020s as producers such as Hamdi, Sammy Virji and Cesco among others have honed in on the swingy, swanky vibes that this style conjures up."
