Many know that in the electronic dance scene, Drum & Bass has been on the rise, bringing talented new artist and tracks from all over the world. While this genre has been extremely popular over seas, it is now making a huge impact on the bass scene here in the US. Today, we have the pleasure of bringing forth a new heater of a DNB track brought to you by none other than Italian DNB mastermind, Drvmmer. His latest release, “Fastest in the West” is absolutely electric, combining all of the classic upbeat elements of any great drum and bass tune with Drvmmer’s own personal flair. This track is one you definitely don’t want to miss because of it’s infectious energy and traditional 170bpm DNB sound. We definitely are going to have this one on blast! Let’s take a deep dive into why we are calling this stomper “Fastest in the West”, a certified bop. 

“Fastest of the West is a track that I originally started back in the beginning of 2022 while I was at Mazare’s home. I really wanted to create a sort of balance between light and darkness, something that you can drop during live shows and go wild with the crowd. 174 BPM of non stop DnB with heavy distortion and catchy melodies.”

Diving Deep w/ Drvmmer

1. How did you decide to get into music? Was there a certain event in your childhood/life that made you stop and realize that you wanted to pursue a career in music?

Thanks to my parents who are really good music enjoyers I started my journey into music when i was barely 7 going to drums lessons for about ten years. Since then I always wanted to make my own music and in the following years I learned to play also guitar and piano. When i had my very first pc i discovered electronic music around 2012 and since then I’ve been completely blown away by all the cool things you could make with just a computer. I remember that I bought my first Novation Launchpad when I was 12 and that was the reason i started goofing around with Ableton. That controller simply changed my life and it introduced me into this beautiful world of music production. Then in 2018 i created the “Drvmmer” project.

2. What kind of impact do you wish to have on the scene 1-2 years from now with your project?

That’s a really good question! I always tend to not overthink too much about this type of things because I like to take my time and live the present, but I’d be really happy to start playing my music all over the world with my amazing friends and being a fresh reference point to all new artists out there searching for new sounds and vibes!

3. What has been a personal career struggle that you have battled with the most and how has it helped mold your character for the better good presently?

I always hated the fact that nowadays it seems like you have to care more about appearance and number of followers and all the stuff like that instead of simply caring about the music itself and how you sonically present a music project. During my journey I simply learned to coexist with these social networks things but it’s really difficult sometimes to invest time in socials and not in music (I just want to make people feel something while hearing my tunes). Anyway I’m currently developing some new things that will fill all the social gaps in terms of presence, activity and community, hopefully ready very soon!

4. What would you tell your younger self today knowing where you’re at now and what it took to get there?

Don’t stop and do your things in your own way, listen to your feelings and never underestimate the power of imagination. Be active in social networks damn, those things can make you more powerful than ever. Last but not least my god waaay less compression in masters, an old wise friend will introduce you clippers..
