Julio Bashmore

Mathew Stephen Walker, known professionally as Julio Bashmore, is an English house music producer and DJ from the United Kingdom. Working under several aliases, including Mathew Walker, Bashmore, J. Bashmore, and Bash, he has released music that sits within house and adjacent strands of UK electronic music, including future garage and Bristol electronic.

Under the Julio Bashmore name, Walker has been associated with labels such as Local Action and Classic Music Company, reflecting a trajectory that connects contemporary UK club music with house’s longer-running label infrastructure. His recorded output and DJ work place him in the overlap between bass-informed British dance music and house, a space where production approaches from different scenes often meet in the same set or release cycle.

Walker’s use of multiple working names has allowed him to appear in different contexts across electronic music, from straightforward house releases to material that draws on the rhythmic and textural vocabulary of UK bass and garage. While Julio Bashmore remains his best-known stage name, the presence of alternate credits points to a broader catalog that extends beyond any single moniker.
