Gatekeeper (Immerse recs / Punch Drunk recs) – Gatekeeper skulks on the fringes of dubstep where breaks, hard electro and darker substances are traded for the usual cliches, resulting in mutant warehouse steppers and a sound of Dubstep that is original and inspring to say the very least. Gatekeeper is a Logic genius and when he is not touring the country (and globe) playing his music he is teaching music technology at Bath College. So not only is he a successful producer, but a top class teacher too. If you are interested in making deep soundscapes, detailed drum beats, and warping basslines, this Dub-step talent is someone you are going to enjoy learning from. To hear his material head to:
