Established in 2006, Deep Soul Music is the brainchild of Stumasta &
Subverse, two stalwarts of the drum & bass scene who had spent a
number of years helping to run the legendary Donovan ‘Badboy’ Smith’s
Sensor Records.
Originally set up to push the more soulful side of d&b from new and
undiscovered producers, the first few releases came from then unknowns
such as Spectrasoul, Zyon Base & Do the Math, although they would not
remain unknown for long. The commitment to pushing new talent plays an
important part in the label’s ethos and the fact that DSM was one of
the first to recognise the undoubted skills of Lynx is testament to
this.
The artwork for each release also plays an important part in what DSM
is all about. With a nod to the design of the 60’s and 70’s, it
reflects and references the ever-changing world we live in and how
things are constantly evolving and improving on what has been before.
Alongside the quality music, it means that DSM provides a complete
package for the discerning collector in a market swamped with dull and
generic clones.
2008 saw the release of the labels first album, ‘Future Without Past’.
Featuring a broad spectrum of styles from new and established
producers alike such as Data, Eveson, Naibu and local talent Ben-E, it
was a resounding commercial and critical success. It also marked the
beginning of a new chapter DSM with a focus on a new musical
direction, helping to pioneer the more minimal and experimental sound
that has become so prevalent in D&B today.
The quality continued in 2009 with tracks from Eveson, Spectrasoul and
the huge Last Gasp b/w Fiasco from new comers Triad finding their way
in to a host of A-list dj’s boxes. It shows no sign of slowing either
with tracks from S.P.Y, Mosus, HLZ and Anile all confirmed, 2010 looks
like the year when everyone will be going deep.
