If you'll allow me to nerd out about drum and bass real quick:
OCD by Royalston
An aptly named, obsessively produced drum and bass album. Not a huge fan of the second track, Arps of Fury, but the next track and on I feel it really picks up. Black Cloud is incredible, it's got such an atmosphere to it.
Zawadi by Kimyan Law
Kimyan Law was only 22 when he produced this amazing work. No fat sausages here, just an incredibly well mixed and mastered album. Magic is a very beautiful, minimal track with purposeful breaks.
Split the Atom by Noisia
Very popular release but I have to mention it. The masters of neurofunk in their prime.
Zeitgeist by Camo and Krooked (the official youtube playlist has teaser tracks for some reason, spotify should have the full album)
Another popular release. Nostalgic and futuristic at the same time, reaching back for classic rave and funk influences while evolving the sound of DnB. This album is the first time I ever heard an "anti-drop", where the buildup transitions into a smooth and measured drop, every instrument purposeful and sharp. Ruhepuls is a favorite track of mine.
edit: Have to mention Flawless by Electrosoul System
Another album reaching back with rave influences and 5+ minute tracks. Unique and interesting sounds and percussion, clearly very refined with tons of detail. Fake Snake is a favorite, combined with the staring cat album art makes a very hypnotic track.
Are into this mix series? It's really good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UD48PwyUD2s
I've never heard of it until now but this is very nicely mixed together. thanks for the link!
