Seba has often been refereed to as one of the pioneers of liquid and jungle drum and bass music over the course of his remarkable 25 year career, and rightfully so.
From his early tracks on LTJ Bukem’s ground-breaking label Good Looking Records to his more recent work across Metalheadz, Commercial Suicide, Soul:r, Hospital and his own Secret Operations, Seba’s music retains a timeless appeal, bringing together beats and bass in classic yet inimitable style.
He’s now revealed his 6th studio album ‘Oni’, signed to BCee’s iconic Spearhead Records imprint. Packed with 12 meticulously crafted tracks, the album sees Seba exploring both the liquid and jungle, while also venturing into deep house territory. It’s a engaging listening experience that further cements his reputation as one of the most innovative artists in electronic music.
“I’ve been doing one off releases for Spearhead since 2011. Steve (BCee) and I talked a long time about doing an album for Spearhead, and after my 2022 album ‘Ingaro’ on my own label Secret Operations, it was about time to put another album together. Since my musical direction is quite diverse with releases ranging from Hospital records to Function records, I thought it would be good to do an album that reflects that diversity. This album has a bit of jungle, drum & bass, liquid, some darkness, some smoothness. All blended together with my signature sounds.” – Seba
Liquid Drum & Bass fans will be drawn to the lush, ethereal melodies of tracks like “Air,” “Project,” and “Easy,” while the rawer jungle cuts, including “Smoke,” “Oni,” and “Slam,” deliver crisp breaks and punchy basslines with Seba’s signature finesse. Adding a unique touch, the deep house track “Three” introduces cinematic, Jon Hopkins-esque textures.
