Sounds Like:
As a dj, I generally try to fit as many sub genres of D&B/Jungle into my set as possible without comprimising it's integrity. I like to play with contrasts, you hear something building in a dark neuro track and, as the wash of the breakdown fades away, you realize you're listening to soulful jazzstep. The other thing I like to mess with is pacing...long mixes building up to quick cuts as the intensity of the set rises.
I'll take care of the producer part later...
