Never one for sticking to any one style, a Scheme Boy set could take you through a variety of genres, tempos and sonic tapestries whilst never forgetting to keep you grooving along. Although the back catalogue of his releases would indicate a hardcore/breakcore artist (albeit a melodic one), its on the dancefloor that you’ll experience the full spectrum of his sound which covers IDM, wonky techno, dubstep, jungle, DnB and of course hardcore.
