Renowned drum and bass artist Seba showcases his versatility with the stunning tracks featured in his latest album, Oni.
Swedish DJ and producer Seba has been a prominent figure in the drum and bass scene for nearly 30 years. He remains a leading force in the community, delivering innovative soundscapes that have graced numerous labels, including his own, Secret Operations. For his latest album, Oni, now available across all platforms, Seba has partnered with fellow industry veteran BCee and his label Spearhead.
Steve (BCee) and I had extensive discussions about creating an album for Spearhead. After my 2022 release ‘Ingaro’ on Secret Operations, it was the right moment to assemble another album. Given my diverse musical direction, with tracks released on labels like Hospital Records and Function Records, I wanted this album to reflect that variety. It features elements of jungle, drum and bass, liquid, darkness, and smoothness, all interwoven with my signature style.

Singles such as “Project” featuring Sapele and “Smoke” set the stage for the rich soundscapes on Oni. With its release, fans can explore even more intricately crafted tracks like “Air,” “Easy” featuring Robert Manos, “Flow,” and “Fake.”
For those searching for standout moments, the three-track segment following the album’s midpoint is a must-listen. “Slam,” “Three,” and “Solace” highlight different aspects of Seba’s artistry. “Slam” begins with a captivating siren-like vocal that envelops the listener before the dynamic, minimal percussion takes over. “Three” showcases Seba’s atmospheric side with its gentle breakbeat and ethereal synths, while “Solace” reignites the energy with a smooth liquid groove and deeply resonant vocals.
Stream “Smoke” on Spotify, pre-order your copy of Oni ahead of its November 15 release, and secure tickets for Seba’s upcoming shows in the US via his website.
