Drum and bass king Seba officially dropped his sixth studio album, Oni, on Spearhead Records. It features 12 distinct tracks that explore two subgenres of DnB, liquid and jungle, alongside some deep house tracks. With over 25 years of experience as a DJ and producer, Seba’s music is timeless, incorporating classic beats alongside modern elements. With Oni, Seba crafts a forward-thinking album that paves the way for an exciting path into the future, blending evolution with his signature sound to create an enduring experience for fans both old and new.
“I’ve been doing one-off releases for Spearhead since 2011,” said Seba. “Steve (BCee) and I talked a long time about doing an album for Spearhead, and after my 2022 album ‘Ingaro’ on my own label Secret Operations, it was about time to put another album together. Since my musical direction is quite diverse with releases ranging from Hospital records to Function records, I thought it would be good to do an album that reflects that diversity. This album has a bit of jungle, drum & bass, liquid, some darkness, some smoothness. All blended together with my signature sounds.”
Oni showcases Seba’s versatility as an artist, blending rich, soulful soundscapes with high-energy rhythms sure to ignite the dance floor. Jungle and DnB fans will be captivated by high-octane tracks like “Smoke,” “Oni,” “Slam,” and “Fake,” featuring sharp breaks and powerful basslines. For those drawn to Seba’s signature ethereal melodies and lush basslines, tracks like “Air,” “Project” (featuring Sapele), “Easy” (featuring Robert Manos), “Solace,” and ‘Flow’ offer plenty to enjoy. Taking the album a step further, Seba incorporates a deep house track, “Three,” layered with intricate textures and evolving melodies.
