Considering the boy is barely out of nappies, Skream has a long line of achievements to quote already. Aside from being one of the pioneers of the more modern, less dark dubstep sound, in terms of getting it recognised by the masses, he also has quite a few years' experience considering he's been making music since the age of 15. As a teenager he worked for Big Apple Records in Croydon, a place that was quick to pick up on the new sounds coming from emerging artists on the dubstep scene. His 2005 track 'Midnight Request Line' was quickly hailed as "dubstep's most recognisable crossover hit". He hosts a weekly slot on the infamous Rinse FM called Stella Sessions and is about to hit up Electrowerkz and Plastic People. He also comes highly recommended by artists as far ranging as Wiley, the grime maestro, and minimal techno boy Ricardo Villalobos. It'd be rude (boi) not to check him out!
