Gears & Rust is the story of a transformation — both sonically and spiritually. The debut album from Leeds-based producer and songwriter S.O.B.A starts in serenity and ends in fire, guiding listeners through a journey of clarity, conflict, and catharsis.

The first half breathes with liquid drum & bass textures, soft harmonies, mellow rap verses, and atmospheric storytelling. Tracks like “Old Pine Woods” and “Southern Moon” feel like morning mist and memory — warm, reflective, and rooted in nature and nostalgia. Here, the lyrics float between moments of love, recovery, and inner peace, woven through vinyl crackle, field recordings, and emotive melodies.

But as the album progresses, the tone shifts. “Babylon Tricks” signals a pivot: the drums hit harder, the message grows sharper, and S.O.B.A’s pen turns militant. From there, Gears & Rust descends into the rave — fusing jump-up chaos, dubstep growls, and layered wordplay that explores addiction, resistance, ambition, and rage. Tracks like “WorkRate” and “Melter Mode” are aggressive and raw — rave weapons with hidden messages coded in rhyme, distorted basslines, and second-drop switch-ups designed to shock and awaken.

By the time the title track “Gears & Rust” lands, the contrast is clear: this album isn’t just about sound — it’s about survival. The gears keep turning, even when the body feels rusted. The soul fights on, even when scarred.

From dusk-lit riversides to smoke-filled basements, Gears & Rust is a sonic diary of a man rebuilding himself — one beat, one bar, one breath at a time.

Fokuz Recordings Podcast #44 - Edlan & Anthony Kasper

Thanks to all who locked in! Here is the show that went out on differentdrumz.co.uk on 18th November 2018.

**About this instalment and the guest mix**
The usual beautiful tunage, dulcet tones and terrible banter (hate that word) from myself, but with a super special guest mix… this time from no other than Knighton’s finest Sevin!  With releases spanning from Prestige US to Integral, Joel’s sound stands out as unique, different, dripping with soul and to be quite frank… fcuk’n banging!

**About the On:ward Podcast**:
It’s been a long time coming, but I’m finally back doing what I love the most… radio. Well, sort of. Presenting a brand new monthly podcast called the On:ward Podcast.

Along with myself cornering all that is good in Drum and Bass, expect to hear an exclusive guest mix in the podcast from some of the scene’s well known artists/producers and names , but also up and comers, newbies and people who should generally be heard! Basically if it’s worth getting your ears round, expect it here.

You will be able to hear my beautiful Black Country crossed with Shropshire tones on Different Drumz on the third Sunday of every month from 2100 - 2300 BST/GMT, and the series will also be uploaded onto my Soundcloud to rinse in your car or your Nana's 80th.

Will Keen aka Keeno is a Bristol-based composer and producer specialising in his own blend of Orchestral Drum & Bass. He started touring globally in 2013 at some of the world's most famous clubs and festivals with his emotionally charged, musical and uplifting sets. Most recently, Keeno has been making waves with his new live show combining Live Piano + String Quartet with Drum & Bass.

Keeno's music captured the attention of Hospital Records in 2014, where he was signed at the age of 19. All 4 of his studio albums reached the top 25 in the Official Dance Albums Charts. He has gathered over 100 million streams and collaborated with Etherwood, Whiney,  Unglued, and DRS and remixed Sultan + Shepard, Above & Beyond, S.P.Y, Fred V & Grafix and Maduk.

In 2022, Keeno went on to found his own record label: Keeno Music pioneering Orchestral DnB. It launched with the immersive Courage EP, a UKF On Air set in the mountains of Andorra and his 1 Year Of Keeno Music Album featuring the co-writing talents of Makoto, In:Most, Diandra Faye & more. He’s the only artist in the world pushing this sound right now. Keeno Music's events have also been growing in popularity with 12 sold-out events in a row focussing on LIVE Orchestral Drum & Bass. Keeno’s one of a kind.

Keeno's "Nocturne" was the start screen theme for "Forza Horizons 2" and his music was included in all game sequels to the present day. Other sync clients include Jaguar, The Crew Motorfest and many more.
