Drum 'n' bass has long been an international form, splintering into all kind of sonic and geographic scenes.
At the cutting edge, though, innovation remains to be found, with Polish born, Rotterdam raised producer Satl spearheading fresh energy within bass culture.
New nine track project 'Things We Can't See' is out now, fusing together elements of hip-hop, jazz, and more, fracturing breakbeat production to form fresh pathways.
Satl has constructed a brand new mix for Clash, and it's a survey of areas of creative flux within drum 'n' bass.
He explains…
This mix is representation of what I'm into in the world of drum 'n' bass right now. A blend of melancholy, soul and hypnotic, raw vibes. These elements were also essential for me while I was working on my latest project on The North Quarter – 'Things We Can't See'. The mix contains obviously cuts from this EP alongside some of older and brand new, unreleased music from a few of my favourite producers. Lots of people have asked me about the name of this EP – the story behind it is that sometimes people go through thought times, but you wont see it just by looking at them – these are 'Things We Can't See’.
Tune in now.
