FD 'Serious' EP (SunAndBass Recordings)
Dropping quickly and powerfully into a squelching, full-bodied bassline tapestry framed by steamy vocals and warm liquid overtones, ‘Serious’ helps FD confirms his seat at the d’n’b producers’ top table. It’s an immaculately constructed liquid roller drenched in production sizzle and muscular snares that stay just the right side of forceful –and what’s more, Calibre pops up for a beautiful keys-and-bass remix of ‘Ambra’. Top-notch work from a special artist.
