The top, without a doubt, is Mantis - Depths feat. Maksim. I can't think of anything that sounds like it, really; it's absolutely monstrous. Second is probably Conduct - Borderlands. Their new album (of the same name) just came out, too, I highly recommend it! Again, such a unique sound, much more "organic" sounding than most drum & bass, and far less club-oriented. And then this is third, obviously. It's tough though, it's been a great year for D&B so far in my opinion. There was Spor's "Black Eyed" EP, the new Noisia album (which leaked, unfortunately for them, and fortunately for everyone else in the world who gets to hear it sooner!), I'm a big fan of Des McMahon's "The Second Renaissance" EP... I'm going to stop, I could list stuff all day, ha.
I tried to incorporate the track title pun and also give some analysis. I now think salsa is a great tool of measuring a track's energy level. #salsascale
Snake and Wolf of The Upbeats: PLEASE release these De-evolution series as an album on CD later on! You're too good these days not to put these at least on vinyl! love from Sweden ♥
This track has the combination of harmonic complexities and heavy drum sounds I've wanted out of a DnB tune for ages. Everyone else seems obsessed with the "less is more" approach when it comes to these aspects. Not The Upbeats in this one though. Respect!
Guys im so addicted to this music , In like 48 hours ive listened more than 100 times , Im flipping, its just me ? or someone has the same problem ? BIG UP TO THE UPBEATS you are fucking awesome P.S- its like the old NETSKY was revived in this guys
Drums are one thing. There are only so many ways to make a drum pattern with just a kick, snare, and hi hat. I agree, the drums are nothing too special, but I still enjoy them.
These are signature Upbeats drums. Very easily recognizable. Tbh im really fed up with the techy shit nowadays, always "'refreshing" to hear an Upbeats track.
Woah... It's been a long time since the last time I've listened to an upload by UKF. This track is fantastic. Just when I thought Drum & Bass was dead!
For all of the fans of this track, I highly recommend checking out 'The Upbeats- Know One' from their Nobody's Out There album. Its on par with this track.
That single bar of half-time at 1:41 is brilliant. What a spectacular track, probably in my top three D&B tracks of 2016 so far!
ikr its those little qwerky parts of tracks that made them so sick
I'm curious what your other two would be for 2016

Wow Borderlands is friggin awesome
Graham Mawhinney Definitely, Conduct have made something completely unique there!
Long-time listeners of The Upbeats might recognise this one... formerly known as 'Inka'!
wonder why they changed it
I've waited for a release of this track since more than one year hahaha
omg \o/! have been waiting for this tune for 3 years now :D since Let It Roll 2013
u have no idea how long i was looking for this one !!!!
This is like medium salsa. Not too hot and outrageous, burning your taste buds alive, but definitely still has some kick. Full flavor here.
nice compare

***** thats true
Gotta give you credit, that was very original.
This better be read in The Drop show, whenever that drops. Proud of this one.
Does anyone else feel like this tune is massively under-rated?
Yup
the mix down is abit basic but the comp is sick as foooook
I just came here to say this
Yep it is
Certainly sir!
Out of all the tracks released in 2016., this is the one I come back to the most. Legendary track.
it's still legendary in 2019
Still is in 2023 mate
The Upbeats are on another level
he is on a another planet*
They*

Kaos PzYcho solar system*

That chord progression is full of energy.
So fucking good

The Upbeats just never disappoint
+EndCodeTv ??????
instant classic for sure.

BIG UP TO THE UPBEATS you are fucking awesome
P.S- its like the old NETSKY was revived in this guys
Whoa. Powerful shit, atmospheric af
didn't expect this from the Upbeats
+Meelan Solanki Me neither. This is massive.
Omg this guy is everywhere. This is scary af
+MidnightDust hahahhaha. maybe he thinks that this one does NOT need to be in need for speed :)
+Rohan Bhadersein listen to yourself, thats just plain silly
that one god damn bar of half time is so perfect
By far the best upbeats track ever, this is perfection
I just stumbled upon this gem. At the right place at the right time.
Dwelving in the epicness this track! The intensity is off DA charts!
absolute tune, great to see this finally getting a release
The goosebumps, I can't get rid off of them.
This might well be their best track ever, and that's a very hard thing to say for me, having listening the entirety of their discography
BEST BEATS IN MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOISIA and The Upbeats 4 ever!
Finally a solid DnB track, they are rare these days.
The vibes and atmosphere are incredible
The gods have spoken!
Es flasht mich einfach so krass wie sie immer besser werden!
Wow, NOT a generic DnB track! Good job!
If you listen to older DnB, you'd change your mind. The drumwork here is similar to the oldschool DnB more than anything.
