Tutorials, tips, and guides to level up your production skills
Since 1995, Big Drum Records has been a cornerstone of the UK garage scene. We've witnessed the genre's evolution from underground warehouse raves to mainstream radio play, and we've been producing, releasing, and mastering UK garage music throughout this entire journey.
Our production services aren't generic - every session is focused on authentic UK garage sound. Our artists—Tova Brown, Chris Bass, Ray Hurley, and Jeff Big Drum—have decades of combined experience.
"What sets UK garage apart is its unique combination of technical precision and raw energy. The swing in the drums, the relationship between the kick and the bass, the vocal chops—these elements require specific knowledge."
Whether you're producing on a laptop in your bedroom or in a professional studio, we'll help you create tracks that capture the authentic UK garage sound.
