about

More Rave And Romance: Schlachthofbronx are coming out swinging with their second single to their upcoming album by releasing a maximum-energy club amalgam of Dancehall and New Orleans Bounce featuring the posthumous Nicky Da B: Drop! Nicky’s infectious shouts, cut and layered to perfection on a high-tempo & low-end heavy Schlachthofbronx club banger are the ideal match to celebrate the transcendental power of both ass shaking and club culture as a whole.

Following their saucy Sway single with this fast-paced Drop, the upcoming album of the music production duo from Munich is shaping up to be a celebration of all things bass & club music as well as a songwriting leftfield of the algorithm-optimized shininess, playfully meandering between the rave and the romance side of their sound spectrum with exciting guests from their international network of vocalists, ranging from Soca to Grime and from Dancehall to experimental Pop.

Being fans & supporters of New Orleans Bounce & Sissy Bounce since 2010, Jakob and Benedikt soon worked together on some sessions with the queer artist Nicky Da B, which materialized in two singles on the 2014 Schlachthofbronx album Rave And Romance including Lights Off. Celebrating huge viral & mainstream success in the meantime with his Express Yourself hit with Diplo, Nicky Da B can be named as one of the leading figures in the innovative and influential rap genre that is NOLA Bounce, next to LGBTQI+ icons like Katey Red and Big Freedia. His early death at age 24 due to illness at the end of 2014 was therefore a tragic loss for the community.

Now fast forward to 2023, as Schlachthofbronx is gearing up to release Drop featuring Nicky Da B including recordings from these sessions. The posthumous vocals of him have lost nothing of its timeless energy, as this tune is a true testament and a heartfelt homage to his artistry and sheer power as a performer. Layering his trademark rolling lyrics & shouts to a highly repetitive and all-consuming dance imperative and combining it with the bass-forward foundation of one of their club ready future Dancehall experiments, Schlachthofbronx are as happy and excited as Nicky Da Bs family & estate to get this tune out into the world and spread his voice & work as far as possible. This one is for the clubs & all the dancers!

Drop is the perfect rave-centered second single for the new Schlachthofbronx album More Rave And Romance and follows the first single Sway, which featured Eliza Legzdina on a naughty mission statement. Combined, these two showcase the sonic range of Schlachthofbronx and hint at a lot more hybrid club music offerings to come that explore the borders of their respective genre limits and make use of their international network of exciting vocalists on the forefront of their game, be it in Grime, Dancehall, Bounce and way beyond.
Jakob and Bene worked their way through the pandemic by crafting a whole new body of work in their studio and also curated club and whole festival lineups with friends like Flowdan, Tash LC, Halfqueen, Feminine Hifi, Scratcha DVA and more, helming stages in the iconic Olympic Stadium and Park in Munich. Always representing the dynamic bass culture scene in the Bavarian capital on tour worldwide, they continued to link with various strains of global club music movements and communities. With their Blurred Vision project, they keep rolling through clubs with an iconic high-impact speaker stack, representing all levels of soundsystem culture - which culminated in a recent parade through Munich's inner city together with other soundsystem trucks, bringing some “Notting Hill Carnival meets german techno parade” vibes to their hometown.

With this, Schlachthofbronx will follow up their 4 studio albums and countless EPs, mixtapes & singles for labels like Zam Zam, Mixpak, Monkeytown, Mad Decent, their own Rave And Romance imprint - plus production work for artists like M.I.A., Snoop Dogg, Bonde Do Role, the late Lee Scratch Perry and many more.
