UK keynote producer Plastician returns to Audius, unveiling his latest track “Speed Demon.” After making his mark in the early 2000’s in the UK dubstep and grime scenes, Plastician established himself as a pillar in the London underground scene. Since then, he expanded his sonic palate and his discography now covers a colorful collection of genres. “Speed Demon” taps into his UK garage side and utilizes iconic samples from the genre. The four-on-the-floor beat steadily carries the nonchalant melody; the quiet energy of “Speed Demon” makes it a fitting track for festival stages in the sun as well as warehouse raves hidden in the night.
