Goes by Graphs. Om Unit has been putting his tunes in mixes for a while. I fell out of dnb for a few years in the late 00s but its grabbed my soul again.

Anyways i agree, at least in terms of what makes the radio. That Truffle Butter song has been bugging me ever since i first heard it and today i figured out why. Everything interesting about it was lifted cleanly from a really good Maya Jane Coles song.

I have no idea what mainstream hip hop would sound like without house/techno or even commercial EDM to point the way.
