Here at Darkfloor we’re big fans of Untold’s production work. Taking a wide range of influence and displaying it all over the shop. A unique sound and one of the few pushing dubstep and bass music in new directions. Couple of months back he did this mix for the XLR8R podcast.

XLR8R recently took a closer look at U.K. producer Untold (a.k.a. Jack Dunning), whose handful of releases on Hessle Audio, Hotflush, and his own Hemlock imprint have quickly established him among a handful of artists pushing dubstep beyond bass-in-your-face nonsense. We figured that if anyone was going to provide a look at where the genre was headed, it would be Untold, so we enlisted him to put together this exclusive mix for the XLR8R podcast series. Taking an open-minded approach and liberally utilizing his stock of unreleased tunes, Untold slots heady and experimental tracks alongside animated dancefloor cuts, and even finds time to dabble in some classic house and B-more club. If this mix is any indication, dubstep’s future remains bright.
