I haven't experienced it yet, but I also haven't enabled Apple Music either, so perhaps that's the culprit.
first thing to do is check your apps running in the background. There may be a rogue app sucking your phone or tablet's battery life. As far as Apple Music is concerned, streaming services can be a huge drain on the battery life.
Head over to Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage to see apps that are draining the most battery. If you notice something unusual, update that app, reinstall it or completely remove it. You may also consider limiting the activity of apps in the background. Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh > Turn it off for individual apps.
Alternatively, you may consider storing your songs locally. Streaming music over 4G LTE consumes a lot of battery power, whether it's Apple Music, Spotify or any other service. If you are in a poor coverage area, turn on the Airplane Mode to save battery. If the problem still persists or you believe that the iOS 8.4 is the real culprit, you may downgrade to iOS 8.3.

Hi,
This may even be true of my phone since 8.3, but, certainly, since 8.4, my battery is draining alarmingly since I upgraded. I have always found the battery life of the 6 to be excellent, but, unfortunately, no longer. Am I alone in this? If so, it might be attributable to an app I have installed or some such. However, Location Based services are not showing up in the status bar and I am just at home, not running GPS etc.
Can anyone confirm?
Sandy.
