Polished liquid drum and bass with a trance-like melodic soul. Shimmering synths and rolling breaks for deep focus or late-night transit.
Modest Intentions creates a specific brand of electronic music that feels like looking through a clean glass window at a rainy city. It is fundamentally rooted in the 'liquid' side of drum and bass, prioritizing melody, atmosphere, and a sense of forward motion that never feels aggressive. The rhythms are crisp and rolling, providing a steady heartbeat that anchors more ethereal, floating elements.
What sets this sound apart is the producer's background in trance music. You can hear it in the way the synthesizers are layered: they have a shimmering, widescreen quality that feels more expansive than typical jungle or DnB. There is a frequent use of 'intelligent' arrangements, where piano motifs and vocal chops are treated with heavy reverb to create a sense of vast, open space within the 170 BPM framework.
Start with the 'Changes EP' to hear the project at its most refined. It captures that perfect balance between the kinetic energy of the dancefloor and the emotional weight of bedroom listening. It is music for people who want the speed of drum and bass but the soul of a film score.
