POW! // Mosca

London based DJ and producer Mosca is a bold music maker. Described by Mary Anne Hobbs as “one of the UKs most important and most thrilling young producers”, his productions have driven packed dance floors across the globe with a bold mixture of dubstep, house and UK funky. This track ‘Bax’ from 2011′s Done Me Wrong EP typifies Mosca at his most jump up.

Mosca came blazing into most people’s musical consciousness with ‘Square One EP’ – one of the establishing releases on the brilliant UK label Night Slugs. Tracks like ‘Nike’ show the darker dubbier side to Mosca’s production – its an awesome bit of glitchy dubstep with short dashes of jungle and vocal breaks.

On the flipside to output like that, Mosca’s remix of T. Williams track ‘Heartbeats’ shows off Mosca’s ability to deliver a soulful funky sound. You can also hear this smoother laid back vibe on his own track ‘The Way We Were’.

Mosca is a true music lover, and one of the things I admire the most about him as a producer and DJ is his championing of up and coming artists. His Under The Radar mix for Mary Anne Hobbs shows not only a DJ with eclectic tastes, but one who is passionate about getting the spot light on those producers that deserve it – even if they are relative unknowns. Big up Mosca.
