Dion Timmer

Dion Timmer creates a sonic world that feels like a high-speed chase through a futuristic, neon-lit metropolis. His sound is defined by a striking contrast: on one hand, you have shimmering, almost sugary melodies that wouldn't feel out of place in a Japanese arcade game. On the other, he delivers some of the most punishing, technically precise bass growls in the modern dubstep scene. It is maximalist electronic music that refuses to sit still, constantly shifting between euphoric heights and gritty, industrial depths.

What truly sets him apart is his 'Very Extra' aesthetic. While many of his peers in the heavy bass scene lean into dark, horror-inspired imagery, Timmer embraces a vibrant, high-fashion, and digital-first sensibility. His production is incredibly clean, with every metallic snare and synth pluck sounding like it was polished to a mirror finish. This 'digital clarity' allows his complex layering to feel organized rather than chaotic, even when the tempo ramps up into drumstep territory.

For those new to his catalog, 'Shiawase' is the essential starting point for his melodic side, showcasing the bright, catchy energy that made him a gaming culture staple. If you want to hear his heavier, collaborative side, his work with Excision provides a masterclass in modern festival dubstep. He is the bridge between the 'brostep' era and the more experimental, genre-fluid future of bass music.
