Drumsound & Bassline Smith

Drumsound & Bassline Smith – or, if you prefer, East Midlands boys Andy Wright, Ben Wiggett and Simon “Bassline” Smith – are a British electronic production group from Derby. They met at one of Derby's club nights in the summer of 1998. In 2004, their "Odyssey" banger was judged Mixmag's tenth best all-round dance anthem of the year, and hit #1 on the UK Dance Chart.

They have released tracks on a string of some of the most respected imprints in drum and bass, including on Ltj Bukem's Good Looking Records, Bryan G’s V Records and Grooverider's Prototype Records. After many years working hard in underground music, they're achieving unprecedented commercial success, and after two and a half years of work, they've just completed the album of their careers in Wall Of Sound.

Drumsound & Bassline Smith and FabFilter

"We learned about FabFilter plug-ins through a mutual producer friend who was raving about them at the time. He demonstrated FabFilter Pro-C and Pro-Q to us and we were completely blown away."

"Since then we use both these products on literally EVERY project we work on in the studio along with FabFilter Pro-L & Pro-G. We absolutely love the animated compression display on the Pro-C and the Pre & Post analyzer on Pro-Q as well as the tremendous mid/side facilities speeds up our workflow no end with fantastic results."
