Wild City #253: UKato

New Delhi's UKato distills his usual fare of breakbeats (which has got him to some of the genre's coveted labels like RAM Records) into the laidback groove of dubstep and the underlying pulse shared with techno before finding his way back using the deep low-end as the connecting thread. Though it starts from Mala, remixes of Aphex Twin and Pearson Sound edits, the mix goes deep into deep cuts in the second half besides throwing in originals, shaking your core with a dark depth while the beats work to keep things fun and lively.

"While drum 'n' bass and bass music have always been the backbone of my DJ sets, this time I wanted to push into a wilder, more club-driven space—blending global sounds with high-energy rhythms. The set kicks off with deep 140 dubstep, flows into breakbeat and leftfield techno-inspired sounds, then ramps through jungle into full-on drum 'n' bass. Along the way, it weaves in my own taste, plenty of unreleased and released material from myself, and features a few contributions from friends as well." – UKato
