It might be difficult for some older heads to wrap their minds around, but the present crop of artists literally do not remember a world without drum 'n' bass in it. So, they're coming at this with a whole different view on the music from that of previous generations. They're synthesising their style from a different set of influences and a different backstory and creating something brand new in the process.

None more so than the innovative deejay and producer, T95.

Having discovered DnB in his early teens through Chase & Status’ seminal album No More Idols, this music has been a constant companion ever since. And his passion intensified from there. This came to a head at uni when his mates Kanine and Klinical – now DnB household names in their own right – introduced him to production, and the T95 story began.

Experimenting with Playaz-influenced jump-up, then – after an Outlook Festival-based epiphany – expanding his palette with the deeper sounds of labels like Shogun Audio and Overview Music, T95 has been an assiduous student of all flavours of drum 'n' bass ever since.

Now, even just 6 years deep into his production career, he already has a strong discography to his name, including releases on Hospital, Elevate, DNBAllstars, Shogun, Playaz, NuForm, Gradient Records. It's clear that T95 is hitting absolute prime-time. As a producer, he's at the forefront of the current trend tracks, with both heavy and vocal-led tracks with the likes of Emily Makis, DRS, Degs, Harry Shotta, Dread MC and Duskee already having laced his beats. And there's a lot more to come.

As a selector, able to draw from his personal dub supply as well as his deep knowledge of a variety of styles and sub-genres, T95 is equipped to take ravers on an intense journey through multiple musical vibes, or to simply blow the roof off with screwface savagery. It's not a show to be missed.

T95 represents the essence of contemporary drum 'n' bass, and is creating music that may very well typify and define the current scene. So don't sleep on him. As his name rises up the flyer, just be thankful you paid heed and spotted the T95 talent early doors.
