Artist guide

Des McMahon

Drum and bass

Fast rhythmic movement and carefully shaped bass production connect his music with the physical energy of drum and bass. Follow the drum pattern and bass separately, then hear how they lock together. Their contrasting speeds can give the music both urgency and depth.

Inside the sound

Drum and bass sets rapid percussion against a strong bass foundation. The style ranges from flowing, melodic material to darker and more forceful production, with rhythm providing a common thread. For Des McMahon, the most useful starting point is the balance described above: listen for the details that distinguish the music, rather than treating a genre label as the whole story.

Start listening

Use the official artist destination to explore releases, recordings and current information. Then compare what you hear with the other artists in our drum and bass guide. Festival appearances offer context, but a past appearance does not confirm a future booking.

The Tetramode Vision

Guided by a clear vision that has remained steady since 2013, Tetramode is rooted in a deep commitment to elevating the cultural landscape through high-quality psychedelic fashion. Our designs are born from profound shamanic encounters, each one a visual echo of the mysteries uncovered through inner exploration. This isn't just fashion, it's a wearable reflection of the unseen. Woven into every pattern are the imprints of visionary journeys, symbols and forms drawn from the depths of consciousness. We believe these expressions aren't just personal, they're universal. They speak to something shared, something collective. Tetramode lives in that space of connection, created to bridge inner worlds with outer culture, and to remind us that the journey is still unfolding.
