MXTR

MXTR is a producer and DJ working in drum and bass, based in Chelmsford, United Kingdom. He has released on Riot Records — notably the single "303" (2024) — and publishes mixes and tracks on SoundCloud, Spotify and Apple Music.

Public biographical detail on MXTR is limited. What is clear from his output is a progression built around online releases and streamed mixes: original tracks and DJ sets appear on his SoundCloud profile and on major streaming services, while the Riot Records single "303" marks a confirmed label release in 2024. Influences listed in available sources include metal, trance and UK hardcore, and those touchpoints show up across his productions.

MXTR’s production style foregrounds melodic, ethereal and euphoric tones. He layers reverb-heavy pads and sustained synth beds to create atmospheric tops, then places concise, punchy drum programming beneath them so the mix keeps dancefloor clarity. Bass design tends to combine a clean sub-low foundation with mid-range grit or distortion — a textural choice that nods to the metal and UK hardcore influences — while trance-derived arpeggios and bright lead motifs supply the euphoric edge.

On arrangement and sound design MXTR uses long, evolving pads and delay-based modulation for space, contrasted with tight transient shaping on kicks and snares. Break manipulation is often economical rather than frenetic: drum edits keep a steady forward drive, letting melodic elements sit above a well-defined low end. The overall effect is melodic DnB with atmospheric expanses and purposeful low-frequency weight.

Concrete career points: the Riot Records single "303" (2024) is his confirmed label release; beyond that he maintains a catalog of uploads and DJ mixes on SoundCloud, and distributes tracks and streams via Spotify and Apple Music. As both producer and DJ he presents his material through recorded mixes and platform releases — for a direct sense of his sound, "303" and his recent SoundCloud mixes are the primary reference points.
