The four-track ‘Dream On’ EP is a perfect encapsulation of the pair’s style, seamlessly
infusing their sounds to create a unique and refreshing project whereby the
duo have once again tested the boundaries of D+B moving into the realms of garage
and lo-fi jungle.
Kicking off the EP is ‘Higher Dimension’, a synthwave-infused D+B number with a dark
twist. Dreamlike vocals drenched in reverb combined with nostalgic synths and an unforgiving
bassline set the listener up for what’s to come. The minimal yet soulful ‘Escape
From U’ follows, bringing crisp percussion and melancholic vibes to this sublime stepper.
‘Lo-Fi Romance’ leads the way for the second half of the EP. Airy pads and bare-bone
breaks lay the foundations for this simple yet sophisticated liquid roller. Switching up
the vibe yet staying true to the distinct Bop x Subwave sound, ‘Haze’ rounds off the EP,
taking things down to 130BPM territory. A clear homage to the sounds of the UK underground
with garage-influenced drums and a hard hitting sub.
After the success of their debut EP ‘Love & Other Drugs’ including a number 1 track in
the Beatport Garage chart, appraisal from key electronic music publications such as DJ
Mag and Resident Advisor as well as radio support across BBC Radio 1, Rinse FM and
Reprezent, it’s set to be a huge year for the duo project
