Since being named Best Newcomer in 2020 at the Drum&BassArena Awards, Waeys has continued to push himself to the forefront of the genre with a string of releases on acclaimed labels like Critical, Overview, Shogun, Delta9, and DIVIDID for his dark, technical style of DnB. As a result, he now sits in the top ten best-selling artists of the genre on Beatport, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome him to Mixtank for an exclusive entry in our ‘The Sound Of…’ series.

How to get that polished finish that characterises the DnB sound
