Instra:mental

The duo of Al Bleek and Kid Drama, Instra:mental, had their debut in the London drum & bass
scene way back in the year 2000. After a break they really hit their stride with releases on Soul:r
and Darkestral. Since then they’ve been steadily building momentum with a number of influential
singles across labels such as dBridge’s Exit and Naked Lunch and developing a sound uniquely
their own. From their south London studio, ‘The Zoo’, they’ve been rewriting the template of what
drum’n'bass can be, crossing over into dubstep and decreasing the bpm whenever they feel like
it. All along there’s been a steady flow of collaborators, from No-U Turn legend Nico to the likes
of Skream, Burial and longtime mate dBridge. Most recently the duo has been creating waves
with their halfstep robo ballad “Watching You”. They’ve also been awarded as “best breakthrough
producers” by DJ Mag and while their monthly Autonomic podcast has been gaining a massive
following, showcasting fresh tracks alongside classics from Minneapolis to Detroit and back to
London. And with a debut album and a Fabriclive session looming on the horizon the future looks
bright for Instra:mental.
