about

As summer settles in, and festival season goes into peak stage, we keep pushing the bar within our ‘Counter x Culture’ series. Following on a sequence of successful CXC releases which brought to light some of the most talented new producers within Drum & Bass, we now present one of the most serious contenders for breakthrough artist of the year. Hailing from the ever proliferate Belgian scene, Lavance reveals a breathtaking single with 2 unique tracks, which capture a wide range of influences, delivering a fresh super-sonic interpretation of our essential bassline groove.

With two Skankandbass releases under his belt, Lavance first caught our ears last year with a flow of very good music, which dwells into the deep sound in a very dancefloor-oriented way. Rated by UKF as one of the 19 Belgian Drum & Bass producers “you need to know”, he has been working very hard to live up to the hype and excelling at the task. As he starts to gather experience both in the studio and on the DJ booth, he is carving his unique highly energetic sonic imprint, which keeps surprising you in every bar.

Side B // Lavance – Glaucus

‘Glaucus’ makes a complete shift in direction as it takes the expression “off the beaten path” to the full extent. Not trying to fit in any boxes and not assuming any dogmas, the whole track is one big progressive experiment. The crazy arrangement of high-end lead sounds, works together with a hint of trap music influence, to create this unique piece. Starting out with an unexpected two-step drum pattern, the changes keep coming as the track evolves, peaking in the half-time switch of the second drop. The whole journey is brought together by an immense low-end pressure, which gives all listeners a warm embrace.
