"With five years in production, Drum & Bass: The Movement is no quick-release film, rather it is feature-length film exploring the free-ranging bass genre."

Drum&BassArena have been major players in the UK DnB scene since 1996 when it was cemented itself as a hub for all things DnB. Starting out as a breakbeat website it has reached out into a brand taking in all forms of bass music with the release of compilations, tours and merchandise. There is no doubting the rich history and love for the genre and an obvious progression for Drum&BassArena to make a huge documentary. Drum & Bass: The Movement was released on May 25th 2020.

With five years in production, Drum & Bass: The Movement is no quick-release film, rather it is feature-length film exploring the free-ranging bass genre. Expect 80 minutes telling the story from the roots of jungle to the current scene. 

Artists such as Andy C, Kasra, Goldie, London Elektricity and more tell their experiences, the history of drum and bass, the move into mainstream dance music and what the future of the genre may hold.
