After 2.5 years of curating and crafting, Deadbeats and Brownies & Lemonade proudly announce a groundbreaking collaboration and their final compilation album, ‘Deadbeats + DNBNL Present: D&B’, set for release on January 26th, 2024.
This compilation is a testament to the drum & bass revolution currently sweeping across America, showcasing a collection of tracks from some of the most influential artists in the genre.
The album features an impressive lineup, including a standout collaboration between Zeds Dead and REAPER on the lead track “Back Bus”, highlighting the synergy between these pioneering labels and their vision for the future of drum & bass in North America. The compilation offers a journey through the contemporary soundscape of D&B, featuring tracks like “What I Need” by Friction, “Flow” by Audioscribe, and “Don’t Think” by ShockOne, among others.
Each track in the compilation represents a unique facet of the genre, from IMANU’s drum & bass remix of his original, “It’s Our Destiny,” to AEON:MODE’s “Touch”, and Kumarion’s “See the Sky”. The diversity of styles within the compilation mirrors the dynamic nature of the D&B scene in America. A special mention goes to the compilation’s final track, “New Dawn, New Day”, a drum & bass rendition of STS9’s fan-favorite track, symbolizing the evolution and adaptability of the genre. This addition from STS9 bridges the gap between electronic music and live band performance, highlighting the expansive reach of drum & bass.
‘Deadbeats + DNBNL Present: D&B’ not only celebrates the artists who have fueled this movement but also marks a significant moment in the cultural proliferation of drum & bass in the United States. It stands as a beacon of innovation and collaboration in the ever-evolving world of electronic music.
