Skream

Dubstep
Dubstep

Skream is a Dubstep act. Their sound grew out of Pete Tong, Burns, Benga, Wiley and Ricardo Villalobos. Those roots explain a lot about how Skream arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Benga, Digital Mystikz, Rusko, The Bug and Burial, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Waze & Odyssey, Susanne Sundfør, La Roux, Kelis and Miles Kane, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 28 connections around Skream, reaching back through Pete Tong and forward to Waze & Odyssey.
