Premiere: Forest Drive West 'Set Free'

More cutting-edge jungle from the Rupture camp...

Forest Drive West is back on beloved jungle outlet Rupture LDN this month with his storming new EP 'Set Free'.

After delivering one of underground d&b’s most-played tracks — ‘Jungle Crack’ — for the label run by Mantra and Double O at the tail-end of 2016, FDW returns from his forays on Livity Sound and the like with five killer cuts.

A tense steppa from the off, the title track is becomes increasingly erractic as it goes on, introducing waves of shuffling percussion and blistering breaks, all underpinned by a continuous, morbid low-end growl.

Sat alongside a slew of other tracks that offer sublime juxtapositions between space and chaos, 'Set Free' is out 29th June. Pre-order a copy via the Rupture LDN Bandcamp.

Mantra of Rupture recently spoke to DJ Mag about the new wave of jungle artists taking the scene by storm, read the full article here.
