If you're even a wee bit tangential listener of neuro, there's a slight chance you'll cross paths with The Outside Agency, hardcore duo self-labeled as "your favorite producer's favorite producers" - and they're not wrong. I won't fill out a whole ass essay explaining their influence on bass music, from Porter Robinson to Noisia, but just trust me bro. They, among many things, developed and pioneered the now fertile and structured genre of crossbreed. Like the name suggests, it mixes dnb with hardcore. You get the heavy pan slams and overall ruthlessness of the latter with the tempo and technicality of the former. The result is fine, fine cuisine. You can search up early releases from Dj Hidden, Eye-D or TOA themselves, or just take my word for it and try this crispy, more recent, 3-track example of the best the genre has to offer from a complete unknown I discovered on a PRSPCT comp. Like completely unknown. We're talking 200 monthly listeners and no rym or aoty page (until now). This planet is a bitch sometimes.
