8-Bit Basslines

I cant remember how i found Boy 8-Bit, nor whether long hair is fashionable again, but what i do know is that he probably one of my favourite producers / remixers out right now. He sits nicely between a sea of filthy bangers and wobbly basslines that are populating the DJs playlists right now.

Taking his name from an 8-bit megalosound sampler he used to make tracks, hes gathered quite a following in the last year or so, and for good reason... His background and passion for dnb, garage and bassline sounds can be seen to melt through his tracks, whilst adding cheeky 8-bit sound with an ease and style that is often crudeley attempted by others. 8-Bit's remix of the Black Ghosts 'Anyway you choose to give it' brought him to the attention of the bloggers, with floaty gameboy-esque interludes complimenting the fuzzy bass lines and splashing cymbals.
With a growing back-catalogue of remixes, Boy 8-bits remixes of South Rakkas Crews 'Mad again' and bublegum pop prince Mika's 'Lollipop' are personal faves offering clever breakdowns and rasping garage-y basslines. His remix of the Bumblebeez 'Rio' takes a slightly different direction, with a more echoey, dreamlike intro driving the vocals, followed by a hip-hop sounding synth and topped off with a smidge of Boy 8-bits trademark bass.
