Dubstep got a serious makeover when Reid Speed laid her hands on the genre. Blending elements of punk, garage and gangster rap into her dubstep mixes, Speed crafts sets that can jump all over the place tempo-wise, seamlessly moving from one to another via delicately placed transitional breakdowns. No artist is safe from her reach, which comprises a willingness to experiment with new sounds, skillful genre merging and exquisite remixing capabilities. If you fancy the lower end of things, Speed brings the bass and is not afraid to push the power of the 808. As she strives to propel EDM to the next level, this bombshell brings a New York flair and unmatched veracity to the speaker boxes.
