Progressive breaks, electro vibes, great flow, head nodding steadily.
Framewerk – Lotus Land
Lone – Always Inside Your Head
Ambient breakbeat, chill-out, ethereal drum and bass, wondering jungle.
Mitch Murder – Hurricane
Liquid drum and bass. This music and this album cover is an exceptionally strong mood.
Something something.
Hello Meteor – The Oahu GP 3: Factory Team
It’s the breakbeat I love and remember done now, with some big beat, drum and bass, and video game sound aesthetics. This is such a fun album from the music through the concept to the cover art.
Suburban Architecture – Dancefloor Heritage Volume 2 (Mixed Version)
Liquid drum and bass, like the good old days. The mixed album gives an awesome continuous ride for 76 minutes.
Calibre – Rudy
Smooth liquid drum and bass backdrop music.
Overlook – Lost Souls Club EP
This is unexpected. I haven’t heard of Overlook before and this music is so much up my alley that it’s like the literal avenue in my city center. Jazzy moods and urban sounds with drum & bass. It’s like DJ Krush but instead of triphop blues having some more tempo to breakbeat and onwards. This is so not 2022, but it’s so amazing.
Torn – Borderline
Drum and bass and jungle and breakcore.
Calibre – Shelflife Six
Drum and bass from almost-jazzy acoustic through light and bright liquid to bass-heavy dancefloor tunes.
Christoph de Babalon – 044 (Hilf Dir Selbst!)
Starts with a dark ambient note but most of it is actually jungle beats and breakcore over some atmospheric sounds. Most of the time I imagined a cyberpunk heist movie rolling with this soundtrack. This could also be a spiritual successor of the Splinter Cell soundrack by Amon Tobin, but with less sophistication and a darker tone. Oh btw, I loved this record a lot, I could easily listen to it five times in a row.
