Hybrid are a British electronic music group based in Swansea, formed around the duo of Mike Truman and Chris Healings. They are primarily known as a progressive breaks act, although they overlap considerably with progressive house and trance.

Their first album Wide Angle (released in 1999) garnered attention for its combination of progressive house and nu skool breaks with vocals and symphonic textures (they hired the Russian Federal Orchestra for the string sections). Julee Cruise supplied many of the vocals for Wide Angle. The music's cinematic feel and scope have led to comparisons with Massive Attack and Underworld. Hybrid also supported Moby during a live tour in 2000.
