Started in 2018 by Brighton-based Peter Piper Maxted, Overview Music&#8217;s name has now become synonymous with excellent scouting of artists with a focus on putting out futuristic material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Making its debut with a various artists release, Overview built on its deep, dark and funky principles and has brought names like Waeys, gyrofield, LaMeduza, Eastcolors, Wingz, Skylark, T-95, Klinical, and many more. Overview is also a strong believer of the communal values that drum &amp; bass stands for, and ever since its inception, it has also had a hand in promoting artists through initiatives like podcasts and mentorship programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">After another solid 12 months in 2022, Overview has stepped into its fifth year and is all set to embark on a gigantic tour down under with its crew. In anticipation of the tour, we have selected what we believe are the best tunes Overview has delivered over the years. So, if you are planning to attend any of the label&#8217;s shows in Australia and New Zealand this month, here&#8217;s the perfect warm up for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Wingz &#8211; Sorrow<\/strong><br>Austrian maestro Wingz is an artist who has mastered the deep, dark, and stripped-back style of drum &amp; bass. The &#8216;Sorrow&#8217; EP marked Wingz&#8217;s full debut on Overview Music, and the result was four supremely distinctive tunes. However, our favorite is the title track, where Wingz nails Overview&#8217;s ethos to perfection. Long and eerie intro, sharp drums, and haunting atmospherics. It&#8217;s all in there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Sorrow\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/6WgbeVdsMLLGJyk7vYiiJq?si=78aeb168a5f04ee3&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Talkre &#8211; Into Darkness<\/strong><br>Talkre, if you are reading this, you need to get back to the incredible drum &amp; bass you were making. The beauty of Talkre&#8217;s music is intense vibes, but with a dancefloor-leaning impact. Making his debut on Overview in 2019, Talkre brewed up a delicious dancefloor shaker featuring his and the label&#8217;s trademark aesthetics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Into Darkness\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/63wATcaZAQiVq4nEilKL46?si=2831c718983f406a&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sustance &#8211; Bristol Gang<\/strong><br>Whatever Berlin-based producer Sustance does, there is style, grit, funk and freshness to it; and all the flavors his music is known for were brought together for the &#8216;Temperance&#8217; EP in 2020.

With the atmospheric feel &#8216;Mapper&#8217; begins with, you would never imagine where Waeys takes you when the tune reaches its climax. The soothing melody that the tune begins with turns into a soaking drum &amp; bass deep stepper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Mapper\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/3LArAjY8wClL8vxU7gnLv9?si=cd0836ba096348b4&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>YAANO &#8211; Blossom<\/strong><br>We picked YAANO&#8217;s &#8216;Lust&#8217; as one of the best drum &amp; bass tunes from 2022, but if we had to pick the best tune from YAANO from Overview&#8217;s catalog, it would be this heater from the &#8216;Blossom&#8217; EP that he released on Overview in 2021. Creativity and exclusivity with an eye for the experimental, YAANO is everything that is right about drum &amp; bass, and &#8216;Blossom&#8217; explains why. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Blossom\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/35eCfh6hpKhfohs0BgoBBT?si=a9aa98318d504207&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Koherent &#8211; Analog Roller<\/strong><br>Drum &amp; Bass duo Koherent have always known how one thing, and that&#8217;s how to bend minds with their music. With a penchant for producing menacing DnB rollers that hover around playful territories, Koherent landed a thumping EP on Overview Music last year. Our favorite from the &#8216;Bleep Test&#8217; EP was &#8216;Analog Roller,&#8217; for obvious reasons. The tune&#8217;s biting rhythm is simply irresistible, but its beauty lies in the simplicity and effectiveness with which it&#8217;s presented. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Analog Roller\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/457ibGlu4xjlF5lRF3jklv?si=64f4ebeaf9a345a2&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">As we complete our list, we leave you with the boss-man of Overview himself, in his element, on his famous monthly podcast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Overview Podcast S3E9\" width=\"702\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ic1T_6iESDs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Which city are you catching the Overview Music crew in?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:9px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You May Also Like: <\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketfairy.com\/word\/2023\/01\/05\/dnb-royalty-halogenix-starts-new-record-label\/\" title=\"DnB Royalty Halogenix Starts New Record Label\">DnB Royalty Halogenix Starts New Record Label<\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketfairy.com\/word\/2023\/01\/11\/tfword-review-connections-vol-2-by-the-chikara-project\/\" title=\"TFword Review: Connections Vol. 2 by The Chikara Project\">TFword Review: Connections Vol. 2 by The Chikara Project<\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketfairy.com\/word\/2022\/12\/13\/tfwords-drum-bass-tracks-of-the-year-part-1\/\" title=\"TFword\u2019s Drum &amp; Bass Tracks of the Year: Part 1\">TFword\u2019s Drum &amp; Bass Tracks of the Year: Part 1<\/a> <\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the British drum &amp; bass label steps into its fifth year, we look at some of Overview Music&#8217;s best releases that make them a force to be reckoned with.
