Premiere: LSB gives a taste of his album with a heartwrenching d'n'b cut

'Capture My Heart' is taken from the 'Content' LP on Soul:r

'The View' was the biggest drum 'n' bass track of the year in 2015. It appeared on DRS' album and newcomer vocalist Tyler Daley sang the hook, but the man responsible for the delectable, gliding production was LSB.

Anyone that's aware of LSB would have been wooed by his slick, delicate and polished drum 'n' bass charm at some point. Roll it back to 2011 and there's the mega soulful 'All Of My Love' on Spearhead Records. 2012 gave us the soothing 'Overthinking' and, more recently, 'Walking Blues' provided that mind-numbing dose of d'n'b.

Asides from almost 10 years of releasing liquid beauties, he's been giving dancefloors real, sweet sets in clubs like fabric and bossing it for parties like Hospitality. His popularity's soared since 'The View' and that's shown with bookings in Lithuania, Slovakia, Japan and Berlin this year.

Marcus Intalex is one DJ fully rating him, praising "his ability to find a great balance between being indulgent and creating intricate sonic textures." It's on Intalex's label that LSB's debut album, 'Content', is coming out via on November 4, a record filled with glistening melodies, crooning vocal spots and the odd nasty, razor-edged bassline.

Deep is the mood projected on 'Capture My Heart', the tune we're premiering. Glowing pads bubble softly throughout as husky-voiced vocalist Dain Stuart sings. LSB's made a name for himself with melancholic d'n'b and this is more proof that he's the man for those heartwrenching cuts.

'Content' is out via Soul:r on November 4
