Nero

Dubstep
DubstepElectronicSynth-pop

Nero is a Dubstep and Electronic act. Their catalogue also touches Synth-pop. Their sound grew out of Disciples, Daft Punk, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, deadmau5 and Dirtyphonics. Those roots explain a lot about how Nero arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Doctor P, Knife Party, Rusko, Kill the Noise and Wilkinson, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Zeds Dead, Oliver Tree, The Big Mash Up, Porter Robinson and Baauer, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 44 connections around Nero, reaching back through Disciples and forward to Zeds Dead.
