Drum & bass pioneer and Hospital RecordÕs crown jewel Danny Byrd is back! HeÕs set 2018 ablaze with monolith anthems ÔDevilÕs DropÕ, ÔSaluteÕ ft MC GQ and ÔHold Up The CrownÕ ft Ky Lenz, now he proudly presents his first album in five years, ÔAtomic FunkÕ. A 15-track funk-fuelled compendium of rolling dancefloor-fillers that tributes to the jungle foundation moulding his early discography. Collaborations with the likes of I-Kay, Maduk, Ownglow, Times x Two and MC GQ, fuse with powerful doses of DannyÕs hip-hop and R&B infused 174BPM productions. ÔAtomic FunkÕ is undoubtedly Mr ByrdÕs finest work to date and includes one of the biggest future D+B anthems ÔHoly StarÕ thatÕs brought to life with vocal delights from MC Foxy. ÔJust A Step AwayÕ (ft. Ownglow) has become a silver bullet for the Byrd, taking a spotlight in his DJ sets as his finishing move. With its gorgeous vocals, volatile rave synths and humming sub-bass, itÕs not hard to see why. However, thatÕs far from the only weapon in this legendÕs locker. ÔRoll The DrumsÕ is a certified sub shaker bringing a fierce bassline and thundering percussion, plus thereÕs raw jungle madness with ÔStarting It OverÕ (ft. Hannah Symons). With fifteen incredible tracks from Hospital RecordsÕ longest standing signing, ÔAtomic FunkÕ is Danny Byrd at his best. Crafted for the dancefloor and feel-good from start to finish, a must-have for any true drum & bass fan.
