Intro

Used delivers a high-definition take on drum and bass that feels both massive and intimate. His sound is characterized by a sleek, 'liquid' polish that smooths out the aggressive edges of jump-up, replacing grit with shimmering synth pads and soaring melodic hooks. It is music that captures the specific rush of a crowded dancefloor at its peak, where the bass is physical but the melodies are purely emotional.

What sets him apart is his ability to weave pop-sensible structures into the relentless 174 BPM framework. Instead of just focusing on the drop, Used builds entire narratives through vocal textures and harmonic progressions that feel cinematic. The production is impeccably clean, featuring snappy, crisp percussion and sub-bass that feels like a warm embrace rather than a blunt force.

Start with 'Come Back Home' or 'Better On My Own' to hear how he bridges the gap between underground rave energy and radio-ready songwriting. It is the perfect entry point for anyone who wants the speed of DnB without sacrificing the soul of a well-crafted pop song.
