For me, Cinematic Future Bass is the future. Introducing “For Me” by Draeden and UNDRWVTER
• Melodic Future Bass with Cinematic elements
• Warm, energetic vocal
• Dharma’s way of exploring familiar genres
It’s been a while since I’ve had the pleasure of diving into the world of Melodic Future Bass, especially within the realm of Dharma. When I first caught wind that KSHMR had handpicked a track from this genre, I knew there had to be something special about it. After all, in an era where artists have explored almost every nook and cranny of electronic music, finding unique ideas can be a daunting task.
However, Draeden‘s “For Me” immediately stood out to me with its Cinematic Future Bass flair. It’s a style that I’ve always admired for its catchiness and elegance, and the opportunity to showcase it to a wider audience is undeniably important.
I’ve had the pleasure of crossing paths with the talented Canadian creator before, particularly with his explosive track “Crossfire” three years ago – a recommendation that still rings true. Seeing his growth in both streaming numbers and releases, including appearances on Dharma with “Coming Down” and a remix of “Starfall” by Illenium in 2023, is a testament to his deserved success.
This new offering from Draeden aligns perfectly with Dharma’s ethos of exploring new sounds while maintaining familiar structures. It’s refreshing to hear this mentality applied to Future Bass, breathing new life into the genre.
The warm vocals from UNDRWVTER set the tone from the beginning, adding a layer of depth and emotion to the track. But what truly stands out is the impeccable breakdown crafted by Draeden. With an elegant composition that gradually builds tension, it sets the stage for the explosive drop that follows. The synergy between delicate Future Bass sounds and a more energetic bassline is simply mesmerizing.
Overall, “For Me” is a solid release that reaffirms Draeden’s position as a master of Cinematic Future Bass. It’s a testament to his talent and creativity, and I have no doubt that he’s here to stay. What a remarkable release indeed!
