love how crunchy it all is. super nice choice of sounds and mixing <3

Guilty that im only full appreciating your production now... awesome tune

“Billions of years ago, an uneaten beast born at the time of the birth of the first planets began its colossal dark journey. Driven by hunger and thirst to survive, becoming bigger, stronger, more powerful. It never felt lonely. All the civilizations it ate along the way provided plenty of nutrients and amusement to it… destructive force consuming all that is prosperous and good, but it does not deserve to know and exploit the human emotions or use them for its own intoxication.
… they all welcomed Leviathan for their salvation!”

After a year-long lasting project, Bristol-based producer XAETIS is finally releasing his 7-track Leviathan LP. This enormous project needed a lot of care and polishing, but it was absolutely worth it! We can see Louis in his natural habitat joggling with tight drums and angry roaring basslines, exploring the whole rainbow of sonic waves.

We can assume this is his best work yet. Louis Parker is demonstrating his colorful palette of various genres and rhythms, each unique and powerful in its technical and musical spectrums. Besides classic bangers and adventurous storytellers, he shows off some 4/4 and even 17/8, inspired by almighty Noisia´s The Hole Pt. I. The whole project is causing some surprising damage, just as ordered. You may go and hear XAETIS playing at the Darkshire in the Woods 2022 in the Czech Republic along with the other SINFUL MAZE artists. SEE YOU THERE!

Bristol-based 25-year-old Louis Parker otherwise known as - XAETIS (pronounced “Zay-tis”) has been recognized as a man of many talents throughout his career and has risen within the drum and bass community. Specialist in combining the aggressive carnage of old school Neuro, new wave dnb, and dark thundering techy rollers. Synthesizing his own twist of outer-worldly sounds from his past and current inspirations in drum and bass, electronic music, post-rock, prog/metal and psychedelia - these musical backgrounds along with his passion for bass music have quickly made him a noticeable name in the scene.


In 2018, XAETIS moved to Bristol to study Music Production at BIMM. This is where his love for drum and bass catalyzed, quickly immersing himself into production. “I remember going to a Jungle event at Motion for the first time in Bristol, and I just instantly felt like I was home…”.


Fast forward to 2020, XAETIS formed his label EXPEDITE Records with his partner Jon a.k.a. - ON|IT. This label targets the formerly unsung talent of the UK's ever-growing Neuro / New wave heavy DNB scene. With a debut label takeover already taken place in 2022 and their own events to begin their showcase in 2023!

His former influences include an eclectic mix of electronic music including the mezmerizing Boards of Canada, pioneer Aphex Twin, and electronic dance wizard John Hopkins. As well as an extensive post-rock and prog-metal background with bands the likes of This Will Destroy You, Animals as Leaders, Meshuggah, and many more... In modern times XAETIS has now focused his attention on some of the most highly regarded producers and artists in the scene such as Noisia, Current Value, Audio, Mean Teeth, Magnetude, Gydra, etc... Taking all this inspiration XAETIS sets out to create some immense waves onto the scene with an ever-evolving and absurdly heavy sound.

XAETIS' Career is now at the tipping point, with ever-growing production abilities and development of his craft behind the decks. He's landed festival sets at Darkshire in the Woods 2022 after his feature LP 'Leviathan LP' released on Sinful Maze - one of Czech Republic's leading dnb labes pushing a fresh perspective of the genre to the world. He has further landed a set at Neuroheadz Festival supporting Pythius and State of Mind after demonstrating his DJ skills with his guest mix on the Neuroheadz SoundCloud.  Other performances have featured collaborative back 2 back sets with NIALLO in both Expedite and Yamatai takeovers at events in Bristol and London, supporting the likes of Gyrofield, Freshney and the Stellar residents.

2023 has started with a bang for this artist with his next big show at La Bassecour in Paris supporting Fade Black and Skulpt! Furthermore, with some other big shows to come this summer, XAETIS is bringing some of his best mind-bending music with him along the way to make it his most promising year yet!
