Julio Bashmore

Bristol’s breakthrough producer gave Crack a ride through his take on house music back in August 2010 with this superb mix.

Joining the dots between his own unique sound and a host of inspired influences, this mix showcases Bashmore in full frontal house music mode, with underlying basslines not dissimilar to personal heroes Justin Martin and Claude Von Stroke’s Dirtybird staple sound.

It also showcased the young producer’s slower take on house music. Keeping the beats in the 120bpm range the mix never gets ahead of itself or loses its groove. This mix acted a pre-cursor to the huge continued success Bashmore has enjoyed in 2011. A worthy debutant in the Crackcast mix series.
