The track continues the trio’s signature blend of emotional vocals and liquid DnB production, marking their third collaboration with Glynne following 2018’s chart-topping hit These Days and Dark Clouds from Toast To Our Differences.

RUDIM3NTAL is shaping up to be a bold celebration of Rudimental’s roots, with a diverse mix of collaborations ranging from global stars like Khalid and Rag’n’Bone Man to underground legends from pirate radio and sound system culture.

Returning to a sound more deeply rooted in pure drum’n’bass, RUDIM3NTAL is both a nod to the band’s early days and a showcase of their evolution.

Rudimental have already introduced the new live show on a headline tour across Australia and New Zealand, with appearances at Coachella, EDC Las Vegas, Parklife, and Glastonbury.

They’re set to continue the summer festival circuit at Boomtown, Reading & Leeds, and Pukkelpop in Belgium, reaffirming their status as one of the UK’s most influential dance acts.
