We don’t know for sure if Chicago duo The-Drum‘s production moniker is a direct reference to The-Dream or not, but we wouldn’t be at all surprised if it is. As “Night Driving”—a smooth cut from the pair’s Heavy Liquid EP, which dropped today—indicates, these guys use many of the same ideas and techniques as pop genius Terius Nash (slow-grooving rap beats, sensuous atmospheres, infectious melodic hooks, et al), albeit in a much more loose and drifty fashion. Assuming those sorts of things are up your alley, we highly suggest you check out the rest of The-Drum’s seven-track record.
