Album lore

Nick The Lot’s 2021 release Gliding Through, issued on Gradient Records, distills the textures of drum and bass, jungle, and bassline across six tracks. The record’s palette is taut and focused, with “Face of the Earth” standing out for its precise breakbeats and deep bass pulses. Recorded in the shadow of the UK’s underground electronic scenes, the album leans into rhythmic interplay over elaborate layering.While not widely circulated, Gliding Through holds resonance for crate-diggers seeking a recent artifact that balances raw energy and measured production. The record’s six cuts — including “Theres Something” and “Alien Vessel” — unfold with a disciplined economy, reflecting a producer attuned to the demands of the dancefloor without excess. It sits quietly within the lineage of contemporary drum and bass, a signal of hands-on craft and restrained ambition.
