Review: Drumsound & Bassline Smith on Playaz.... Do we need to say any more? This is the epitome of a full strength D&B in 2015: beats so heavy they could smash tanks, bass so electrified it could power a London borough for two years flat, strings so dramatic they could get a scholarship at RADAR and well placed film sample, it smacks of everything that's great about Drumsound & Bassline Smith and Playaz. "Testify" takes the aggy-factor down a notch and replaces it with more percussive elements that build on the strong sense of funk that's already in place with the spoken sample and horns. Wallop.
Review: It's so good of Drumsound & Bassline Smith to segment their 15 year celebration into themed chunks for our listening pleasure. This Summer Selection is a perfect duet of summer rollers, from the euphoric drops of "Memories" to the build-up and subsequent barrage of uplifting bass and synths in "Primitive", there is nothing dark about this release. It's a pairing of pure drum and bass ecstasy and it's all yours right now. All you need now is somewhere to dance and a Solero.
