Darla’s late-nineties meeting point between drum-and-bass rhythms and softer electronic textures
A four-artist compilation moving through jungle, house, and trance influences; colored-vinyl reissue
For fans of: Seefeel, atmospheric drum and bass, ambient pop, Darla’s Bliss Out series
Drum & Bliss comes from the stretch of the nineties when indie labels were finding their own routes into electronic music. Rather than treating drum and bass as a fixed set of rules, the four contributions use its rhythmic language alongside more reflective textures and passages that reach toward house and trance. The small track count keeps the contrasts easy to hear. This colored-vinyl reissue returns to Darla’s interest in music that can be rhythmically busy and quietly absorbing at the same time.
“It places you into a relaxed and comfortable state of being.”
