Bio
Xylym is Mitch Hughes, a Jersey-born drum & bass producer drawn to the technical possibilities of neurofunk. He began experimenting with FL Studio as a teenager, then moved to London to study production, first working as Asylum before adopting his current name. Releases for Eatbrain, Blackout and Hoofbeats helped establish a sound built around detailed drum programming and forceful bass design. His Uprising EP for Evolution Chamber extended the project into self-made music videos, one for each track. He also makes material specifically for his DJ sets: his version of Pendulum’s Blood Sugar began as a private bootleg before he updated it and shared it with listeners.
