After nearly two decades of redefining electronic music’s boundaries, bass music pioneer Rusko emerges with his most audacious work yet, ‘1 Man Army‘. The 5-track EP marks the UK-based DJ and producer’s first solo venture in two years, serving as both a testament to his enduring influence and a bold declaration of artistic independence. Within this carefully crafted collection, Rusko captures the raw energy that first established his legendary status while pushing his sound into thrilling new territory.
Born from his lifelong passion for drum & bass and meticulously shaped over the past year, ‘1 Man Army‘ opens an electrifying new chapter in Rusko’s sonic evolution. The EP’s title track sets the stage with an expertly crafted fusion of pulsating basslines and Rusko’s signature melodic mastery. The momentum builds through the previously released singles “Wassup” and “Rubix Cube“, two explosive anthems that have already become crowd favorites, showcasing Rusko’s unmatched ability to merge experimental sound design with pure dancefloor euphoria.
The journey continues with “Bout Your Love“, a drum & bass masterpiece that demonstrates Rusko’s commanding grasp of the genre he helped shape, while infusing it with his characteristic boundless energy. Rounding out the EP, “Ganjaman” delivers a triumphant finale that embodies the collection’s core mission: delivering innovative, joy-filled electronic music that pushes creative boundaries while never losing sight of the dancefloor.
The arrival of ‘1 Man Army amplifies an already monumental trajectory in Rusko’s illustrious career, following a series of historic back-to-back performances with fellow UK dubstep architect Caspa throughout 2024, and launching into 2025 with a thunderous sold-out show at Denver’s iconic Mission Ballroom. Through this release, Rusko not only honors his roots but charts a bold course forward, reaffirming his position as one of electronic music’s most vital voices.
