Tape B Shifts from “Driptapes” to Focus on New Debut Album

After years of commanding dancefloors with his turbocharged remixes and edit-heavy mixtapes, Tape B is trading in the adrenaline of the “Driptapes” series for something more permanent: his first full-length album. The sixth volume of Driptapes, released earlier this week, may be the last for a while—and it lands like a closing chapter.

Tape B, a Turkish-born producer who’s become synonymous with the old-school-meets-modern-bass aesthetic, isn’t disappearing. He’s evolving. And more than that, he’s reclaiming his time.

“I feel like I’ve remixed most of the songs I’ve wanted to,” he admitted in a recent Instagram post, and it shows. Over the past few years, his edits and bootlegs have breathed new life into the dubstep scene—injecting it with just enough nostalgia to please the purists while keeping it current enough for festival stages.

But it’s clear he’s no longer content being the scene’s go-to remixer. What’s next is an original body of work, shaped by what he calls “a very clear vision.” It’s a bold step in a genre that often rewards what’s loudest or most familiar. Instead, Tape B seems ready to gamble on depth—on making something that stands the test of time, rather than just smashing the next drop.

He hinted at a possible “VIP tape” in the future, but that feels more like a footnote. What’s compelling now is the sense of direction. For the first time, the man behind the curtain isn’t simply flipping tracks—he’s building his own world.
