How does a duo make drum and bass this warm without it turning into wallpaper? GLXY keep quietly figuring it out. NO ID rides a rolling break with a bassline that’s more felt than heard, and the whole thing has this dusky, late-set quality that a lot of liquid DnB reaches for and misses by being too clean and too bright. Around 2:25 they strip it to almost nothing, a filtered pad and a ghost of the drums, and the rebuild after is the reason to stay. There’s a jazz-chord thing happening under the second half that I keep noticing new bits of on each listen; three plays in and I found a Rhodes line I’d completely missed. This is the DnB I put on when I want the tempo without the aggression, the stuff that proves the genre has an entire soulful wing most people ignore. GLXY are one of the best working in it right now. Let it run.
