Lateral - Run The Town [Future Fire Vol. 3]

Buy/stream: Following on from the first two volumes, Viper are proud to present the next in what has quickly become a favourite series with Future Fire Vol. 3. Celebrating the wide range of talent from across the globe, Future Fire aims to shine a much deserved spotlight on some of the newer names in Drum & Bass – something that has been at the core of the label since day one. Hand selected by Futurebound, Vol. 3 features four brand new tracks from Sly Chaos, tunnl vision, GMG, and Lateral. Sly Chaos teams up with vocalist NÜ on “Right Now”, a glimmering number with infectious lyrics that will sweep you off your feet. Drawing the listener in with her powerful voice, NÜ’s serenade takes center stage – up until the drop, that is. Sly Chaos delivers a hearty dose of resounding basslines for a track that you might not have expected to be from the mind of a newcomer – both Sly Chaos and NÜ do the New Zealand scene proud with this one! Next up, tunnl vision delivers something on the funkier side of Drum & Bass, with high energy right from the start. Building in loudness and complexity, tunnl vision sets his sights on decimating audiences with the drop, interlaced with cyber-dystopian vibes that is classic Viper through and through. Polished and original, tunnl vision has more than impressed with their “Runnin” debut. GMG’s contribution falls more on the elegant side of the genre - “Light of Destiny” paints a serene picture with cinematic authority, exuding plenty of grace and charm as it builds. As the track progresses, however, it transforms into something different entirely, replacing the fantasy elements with something more science fiction based, while never losing its initial cinematic quality. Quirky and fast-paced, “Light of Destiny” will leave you wanting more from GMG. Lateral delivers classic dancefloor energy with a nostalgic twist, masterfully combining familiar elements of the genre into something fresh and exciting. Full of adrenaline, “Run The Town” is a futuristic racing soundtrack that will once again leave listeners impressed despite potentially never having heard of the producer behind it. #dnb #drumandbass Buy/stream:
