Modestep is a bass-infused band formed in London. Influenced by the strong presence of both rock and underground bass music in the capital, they created a gap in both the rock and electronic worlds which allowed them to stand out from every other act on the bill. The band took the world by storm in 2011 with their track 'Sunlight' which was an instant chart and radio hit. Their sound clearly takes influence from progressive electro and dubstep. As one of their fans stated they like to make music which "makes your brains wobble with low bass filth". In reality not all Modestep's tunes aim to be as filthy as possible, which is much the trend of the times, in what can possibly be seen as a post-dubstep progression; where bass-heavy music is never avoided, however, incorporated in an eclectic manner with electronica. In recent years they have moved more towards faster styles, embracing their UK roots with more Drum and Bass influenced performance.
