On 13 February, the eighth release from the Saint Petersburg label
Resistance Music. The CD contains 11 new tracks, not only from producers well known to fans of Russian drum and bass, but also from promising newcomers. The stylistic range of the tracks presented is quite broad: from melodic artcore to hard techstep. Thus, the compilation provides an idea of the actual state of the Saint Petersburg drum and bass scene in terms of the level of production development, musical ideas and new sound.
I am sure that every listener will be able to find something interesting for themselves in each track. I would like to draw attention to several tracks from this compilation. As always,Dissident pleased with interesting ideas and an original atmosphereStigmata. In addition to the Saint Petersburg producers, the compilation features a track bymusicians from Ukraine —Static Nitro, memorable for its high-quality sound, dark atmosphere and dense bass. One of the members of this project,Sunchaseworks with the well-known DJ and musicianBes's; their joint work,will please fans of techno-oriented sound. Those who prefer a lighter direction in drum and bass may be interested inUjin —andArt D.Jay(one of the members of Mechanic Duo) —. Among the newcomers, one can mention the trance-influenced trackbySky &Hemule, whose album was released by
Resistance Musicat the same time as this compilation. There are also tracks by members ofEclipse —Implex's,Selector's andMcSeem'а.
Overall, the compilation is interesting to listen to. We will eagerly await new releases from Resistance Music.
