Synopsis

Amazon.com
Perhaps America's most important drum & bass figurehead, London transplant DJ DB has put together his most accomplished, all-encompassing, and engaging mix yet. Tripping in the lighter shades of darkness and often allowing glorious sunlight to saturate some otherwise dark and heavy beats, DB has liberally sprinkled some jazz and funk into the heart of cuts from the likes of Jonny L, Roni Size, and LTJ Bukem. The movement in this 17-track compilation is absolutely seamless; singling out individual tracks does disservice to such a finely tuned mix. However, keen ears will enjoy Jonny L and Roni Size's "This Time," Photek's spacey remix of the mighty L's classic "Two of Us," Klute's airy, Gary Numan-esque breakbeat "Chicks," and the crown jewel, E-Z Rollers' jazzed-up "Retro (G.O.D.) Remix." While consciously avoiding dark hardcore and keeping matters firmly in the sun, The Secret Art is a welcome mix of some great tunes at a time when the drum & bass genre is back in the dance music underground. --Steffan Chirazi

"This is the cream of the intelligent crop when it comes to drum and bass. The track selection is superb and when combined with the flawless mixing courtesy of DB, it creates a beautiful sound that carries you effortlessly through the entire album. I am more impressed with this CD every time I listen to it, and consider it essential to anyone who enjoys intelligent drum and bass"
