Function 53 review

Swedish Drum & Bass maestro Seba has been a stalwart of the scene for aeons and continues to deliver his delicate trademark soundscapes. All of which are known for timelessly travelling with you. They say good music doesn't age, and Seba iconically proves this to be the truth.

If you're a DJ, you want to play his tunes as soon as you hear them; as a producer, you envy his assured taste. Seba effortlessly deals with the right sounds and vibes, combining the dark and light, the hiss and the calm, the beauty and the danger. This music cites what has been and opens a space for what could be.

On his latest Function EP, Seba and a set of co-producers cater for imaginative and demanding Drum & Bass music, rounding up four tracks to yet another universal state of music and mind.

'Balthazar' sees Seba get into gear with Jr Vallo, known from Seba's imprint Secret Operations. Opening up Function 53 in a spacey, cool-down manner: Intricate rolls accompany flirtatious synths while a brooding bass churns its way through the filters. When this tune is in full stride, we feel the beloved signature of Seba's seminal, 'Return To Forever' Album!

'The Future', Seba and Olski lay down the classic funky drummer breakbeat accompanied by chopped-up breaks, trickery and relentlessly stepping stabs that call for the floor. Echo-locating beloved sounds from Seba's catalogue as much as the Function spectrum!

'Couchsurfing' is another Seba and Olski co-lab. Mocking its title, though, this one takes you through Drum & Bass from all ages and backgrounds. Dark chops, dread soundscapes and rugged amen breaks.

'Love Story' has Seba and label mastermind Digital as brothers in sound; you can feel their particular influences. The tender pianos tip-toe over dubby grounds, dubbed-out textures, a slightly psychedelic vibe, and everything is held together by an excellent stepper's beat, with the right amount of beat switches to keep you dreaming and going on all night. If only this tune wouldn't end!
