‘Abruzzo’ by Davide Carbone holds a fantastic blend of the light and dark
side. The title track is a beautiful piece with a light-hearted feeling,
subtle flourishes and a hazy air to sink into. Second track ‘The Upside
Down’ has the darker edge with the moody bass and wobbles, yet the
beat is not too heavy and intrigues with it’s fragmented structure. Both
tracks are well-produced in an understated way.
After a seven year hiatus Davide Carbone’s BS1 Records returns for 2018
with a fresh array of releases and remixes from an all-star cast including
Carbone, Royalston and the legendary Carl Cox to introduce the BS1
brand to the next generation.
Already featured during Beats 1’s D&B month, ‘Abruzzo’ and ‘The Upside
Down’ see Davide taking a break from his film, tv and gaming music work
to deliver two proper pieces of drum & bass that continue the BS1
journey in fine fashion.
Established in 1999, BS1 nurtured the early careers of many a D&B
lynchpin including TC, Blame, Heist, Lomax (one half of Loadstar),
Decoder (Kosheen) and Distorted Minds. Their studio page was the
original and most popular source of high quality samples created by its
own artists and made available to the general D&B production
community. Such was the notoriety that many labels did and still do
request demo submissions that don’t feature ‘samples from the BS1
Records website’.
