D-tip & ShortBass – My Life My Rules (Inclu. The No. 40) is a deep and groove-focused Afro-house/house EP that blends soulful musical textures with polished electronic production. The project carries a confident and expressive character, built around themes of individuality, self-expression, and living on your own terms.
Brazo Wa Afrika, Mk Da Soul and ShortBass recently appeared on SnowFall.
The production is shaped by deep basslines, steady house drums, rolling percussion, warm piano and keyboard chords, atmospheric pads, subtle synth layers, and hypnotic melodic patterns, creating a smooth and immersive soundscape. D-tip and ShortBass focus on groove and atmosphere, allowing the tracks to develop naturally through layered instrumentation and gradual progression.
The EP balances mellow, soulful moments with more energetic dancefloor-oriented passages, giving the project a versatile feel while maintaining a cohesive sonic identity. The inclusion of The No. 40 adds another dimension to the release, expanding the project’s range without taking away from its deep-house character.
Overall, My Life My Rules (Inclu. The No. 40) is a polished EP that showcases D-tip and ShortBass’s appreciation for deep, soulful house music. Its confident mood, warm melodies, and steady grooves make it a fitting project for late-night listening, relaxed sessions, and deeper dancefloor sets.
