Lost In Heaven #154 (dnb mix - march 2025) Atmospheric | Drum and Bass

"Without You" is a soulful Liquid Drum & Bass track infused with jazzy vibes. A smooth liquid break and deep fretless bass groove set the tone before giving way to the iconic Apache break and a resonant sub-bass line. Lush trumpet hooks and sweeping strings add warmth, while a dreamy mallet arpeggio intertwines with the emotive vocal hook, creating an atmospheric and immersive journey.

Without You

"Falling Deep" transports you back to the golden era of rave, evoking the raw energy and euphoria of the early '90s. Powerful piano chord stabs drive the rhythm, while rolling breaks and deep, earth-shaking sub-bass lines set the foundation. A spacious ambient breakdown offers a moment of reflection, with dreamy pads and ethereal textures building anticipation before the beats come roaring back. Hands in the air—close your eyes, feel the rush, and dance like no one's watching.

Falling Deep

"Closer" is a powerful journey through emotive cinematic soundscapes and deep Liquid Drum & Bass rhythms. Fusing soaring string orchestration, heartfelt piano, and warm brass with the weight of Reese and sub basslines, this track blends orchestral grandeur with rolling DnB energy. Atmospheric vocal pads add depth and emotion, creating a rich, immersive experience that pulls you in and stays with you long after the final note.

"Takes Me Higher" is a Latin-infused Liquid Drum & Bass track that captures the warmth and rhythm of summer through a harmonious mix of organic and electronic elements. Salsa-style percussion, jazzy piano chords, and soft, warm pads create a laid-back yet uplifting atmosphere, while a Rhodes sample with a subtle reverse effect adds a dreamy touch and bright brass hooks bring melodic energy. The result is a chilled, sun-soaked track perfect for unwinding and escape.

Takes Me Higher

Creating original dance music since 1991, I am currently producing new material as one half of SLR & The iNOVATOR, working on solo projects, and rediscovering lost and unreleased DnB gems from the ‘90s.

Throughout the 1990s, my tracks were released on vinyl and featured on CD compilations through labels such as F-Project (Formation Records), Sound Entity, Precious Material, and Basement Records.

I’ve also produced music under various aliases, including A Touch of Jazz, Floor Filler, B Rich, NekLok, and Mutants.
