Best known for his work on the Skull Disco imprint (alongside Shackleton), Laurie Osborne's musical quest has seen him merge crushing bass-heavy dynamics with other-worldly incantations, tripping your brain out while making your limbs flail uncontrollably. His own label Apple Pips is one of the most essential destinations for forward-thinking beats in the battleground between house, techno and dubstep, while his Rinse.FM podcasts serve as an education on everything great about electronic music from the 60s onwards. The man is undoubtedly a musical prophet for our generation.
