"Drop the Pressure" is a song by the Scottish electronic dance musician Mylo. It appears on Mylo's first and only album Destroy Rock & Roll and was released as a single in the UK on 18 October 2004. The song is constructed from an instrumental and a single vocal line recording by Mylo, who used Reason 2.5 to incorporate a vocoder module.[1]

"Drop the Pressure" peaked at number 19 on the UK Singles Chart, yet topped the charts in the UK in both the Independent Singles Chart and Dance Singles Chart.[2] A mash-up of "Drop the Pressure" and Miami Sound Machine's 1984 song "Dr. Beat" was released in 2005 as "Doctor Pressure".
