History
Netsky produces music of the liquid funk style – drum and bass music with many instrumental layers and frequent vocals.[3] A large musical influence to him came from High Contrast's 'Gold Digger' remix.
In late 2009, Netsky signed a recording contract with Hospital Records, the same label as other well known liquid artists as High Contrast and London Elektricity.
A Belgian musician, in less than 12 months Netsky secured releases with record labels including Liq-Weed Ganja, Spearhead and Talkin Beatz. He also won a nomination as "Best Upcoming Producer" within just months of his first release at the Drum + Bass Arena Awards.
Netsky is now signed exclusively to Hospital, and has also appeared on the Hospital Podcast.
Hospital Records released Netsky's self-titled debut album on 31 May 2010.[4]
