From the heart of Bury St. Edmunds rises Consequential, a boundary-pushing musical project that thrives on raw energy and unconventional influences. Rooted in the pulsating depths of drum and bass with a splash of jungle, their sound is a visceral experience—something that grips you by the core and refuses to let go. With a creative process as unorthodox as their music, Consequential shapes their sonic landscapes with spontaneity, drawing inspiration from muddy festival fields and even watching Strictly Come Dancing. Now, with the drop of their electrifying single “Down” on February 21, 2025, they’ve set an explosive stage.
“Down” is a track built to rattle speakers and electrify dance floors. From the first beat, booming basslines stomp their way through the mix, driving an intense, almost primal energy. The breakneck jungle-inspired drum patterns keep the pulse relentless, infusing the track with an irresistible, high-octane groove. Every kick and snare hit lands with precision, creating a hypnotic push-and-pull effect that draws the listener deeper into its vortex.
Layered over the pulsating low end, the melody floats in an almost eerie yet intoxicating fashion. It’s the kind of track that thrives in dimly lit underground venues—where strobes flicker and bodies move in unison to the rhythm. The production, despite being crafted in such a relaxed setting (lounging on the sofa, Bluetooth headphones and all), carries a live-wire intensity that feels like a pressure valve being released.
If there’s one thing “Down” encapsulates, it’s liberation through sound. Born from a need to go heavier, the track pulses with the essence of bottled-up emotion finally finding an escape. It’s music for those who crave adrenaline, for the festival crowd ready to stomp the ground, and for those who live for the drop. The duality of precision and chaos within the track mirrors life’s natural rhythm—moments of tension giving way to cathartic release.
With early UK DJ support and festival anticipation building, Consequential is positioning themselves as a formidable force in the underground scene. If “Down” is just the beginning, then the future looks like a thrilling ride for this electrifying act.
