If this isn't drum & bass AOTY then I don't know what else can be.
edit: Confirmed. Probably the genre's most important artist right now. Ollie Macky drops his
sophomore album on Dispatch Recordings, an even more ambitious project than "Terminus" (which was
already ambitious in its own right). Elegant urban percussive outfit in the twilight, ponctuated
by a few gorgeous ambient sketches. A continuation of the techstep-fueled morphing and thick
sound of his latest 12' singles ('Raven Row', 'Pinch Me', 'Nevada Ghost'), and a swell londonian
take on the everlasting D&B City, Under Another Sky is a titanic and majestic drum & bass album
that now cements the place of Cern alongside 4hero, Photek, Calibre and Klute in the junglist hall
of fame. Wow, wow, wow. |
