Summer 2026 is turning into one of the more emotional stretches drum & bass has seen in a while, and there’s a lot to unpack if you’re getting into the scene right now. From a heavy loss to festival season kicking into gear and a new name breaking through, here’s what’s actually happening this week.
The scene lost one of its most beloved figures this week. Dutch producer and DJ Lenzman, real name Teije van Vliet, passed away at 47 after a long battle with cancer.
As the founder of The North Quarter, he helped define a warmer, soulful strand of liquid drum & bass that shaped a whole generation of producers who grew up on the deeper, more melodic side of the genre. If you’ve never properly sat down with his music, this is a good week to start.
Tributes have been pouring in from artists and fans across the community, a reminder of how much one producer’s sound can shape an entire scene. On a lighter note, festival season is heating up fast. Let It Roll, the huge open-air drum & bass festival held in Milovice in the Czech Republic, has locked in its full 2026 lineup, and it is stacked.
