Big Bud's "Blue + Green"


Today’s album is all about how good drum n bass can sound. Everyone needs good electronic music in their life and lately this sub-genre of EDM seems to be overlooked.  “Blue + Green” was released by Big Bud in 2012 through Beatport. Right from the beginning of the album you can hear the quality of the drum samples. The cymbals and snare cut through the mix and create a really nice strong foundation for the rest of the song to build off of. Since this is a drum n bass album you can’t go wrong with great sounding drums. Now for the bass. I find it to be especially nice sounding in the first song “Angel” and I couldn’t imagine listening to the song without a subwoofer because it would really lose a lot of its power. As for the rest of the album the low end plays a large role in why I like it so much and I suggest listening in the best environment you can find.


"Wobbegong” gets even more aggressive with the low end and as I listen to it right now with the sub cranked up I wonder if the neighbors are O.K. with it. Hopefully they’re not home right now. Big Bud introduces some really fun tech sounds that come in later in the song that helps to add more depth to the track. If I was still DJing this is a song I would definitely play late at night. Another fun song on the album is “Rubadub”. Drum n Bass always mixes well with reggae music and this song doesn’t disappoint. You can purchase the album here on Beatport.

  1. I have never been a big D & B fan but there are few and selected songs I do enjoy. I like both "Rubadub" but enjoyed "Angel" more. I could hear that playing at one my after hours. Thanks for the new jam. I'll keep this one in mind.
