Launchpad Playlist: Heat up the night with this hefty heavy bass playlist

Launchpad is a playlist series showcasing music we love, hand selected by our staff. The tracks come from both emerging and mainstream artists; it’s all about the quality and the unexpected. If you’d like your music featured in Launchpad, submit it for consideration here

With the proliferation of bass music in today’s scene, particularly drum & bass, we’ve sought out to highlight some of the off-kilter styles and BPMs the genre has to offer — and so the latest Launchpad playlist is brimming with bristling bass. From half-time and hip-hop to neuro rhythm, we present a small collection of bass music aside from the more ubiquitous dubstep and trap sounds and rhythms in the current dance sphere.

DA Playlist Selects:

Shield – “Slang ft Ivy Lab”

Though “Slang” was released more than two years ago, it’s inventive tendencies boast a sinister air of bass music that proves to be an idiosyncratic standout, even by today’s standards. Judging by the track’s off-kilter production, it’s also small wonder NOISIA premiered this track on NOISIA Radio.

RoyGreen & Protone – “Manoeuvre”

“Manoeuvre” is a unique sounding drum & bass track with awesome vocals from one of the UK’s storied MC’s, DRS. With a voice that lends so perfectly to the production, it’s no surprise RoyGreen & Protone nail the vibes on “Manoeuvre.” It’s properly dark and plenty moody, and thus, unforgettably exuberant.

Tracklist:

Obeyer – “Chelsea Smile”
TLZMN – “Viper”
Kid Koma – “Chimera”
Shield – “Slang” ft. Ivy Lab
RoyGreen & Protone x The Insiders ft. DRS – “Manoeuvre”
Hyroglifics x Arkaik – “Phone Drone”
