1991

Based in London, producer and DJ 1991 has developed since the mid-2010s a very melodic approach to drum and bass, sitting between club sounds and formats closer to electronic pop. 1991 drew attention with a series of singles and EPs that established a style built on powerful basslines, prominent vocals, bright synths and rhythmic work aimed at the dancefloor. Across his releases, 1991 moves between high-energy drum and bass tailored for large sound systems and more atmospheric pieces influenced by house and trance, while keeping relatively direct song structures. Active both in the studio and in DJ sets, 1991 regularly appears on the British and European club scene, where his selections extend the aesthetic of his productions with an emphasis on melodic transitions and effective drops. Very visible online through his releases and mixes, 1991 thus occupies an identifiable place in the new generation of UK-based drum and bass producers.
