Joining the worldwide NCS family of artists with his debut release on the label is revered UK bass artist Droptek, who unleashes a monster DJ weapon in the shape of ‘New Style’, out now across all major international streaming platforms.

Lauded for his ability to craft dark tracks that are both brutally unrelenting and sweepingly cinematic in their composition, ‘New Style’ is Droptek unfettered and furious.
Swathes of warm elements gather pace under his masterful hand, bass lines always threatening in the lower reaches, high notes hovering on the other end of the scale.
Synths twitch, stab and glitch in a shuddering, ongoing robotic conversation as Droptek segues effortlessly through shades of heavy gloom and soft light.
It’s a composition that oozes confidence, managing to build the link between those broad, sonic dimensions that typify classic D’n’B yet still keep the tones that highlight more modern genres of trap and dub.
Still on a high from his album release ‘Symbiosis’ earlier this year and having remixed for the likes of Krewella and Pegboard Nerds, Droptek is also renowned for his work in video game composition, including Ubisoft’s ‘Track Mania’ and the VR remix game ‘Electronauts’.
With features on stations including Noisia Radio and BBC Radio 1 and now his first release with NCS, his is truly a star that looks set to continue its international rise in all quarters.
