His debut album, Dance With The Devil, released on Alix Perez’s influential 1985 Music, cemented his reputation as one of the most innovative artists in the game. The record delivers a dark, cinematic journey through the depths of bass music, with intricate sound design and thunderous low-end pressure. Collaborations with some of the scene’s finest push the album into new territory, showcasing Drone’s ability to merge eerie atmospheres with raw, club-ready energy.
