not the parties, the MUSIC!!!!

who cares if parties suck or not, you dont listen to music at home for the parties

Thanks for the complement on an earlier thread. Didn't get a chance to reply to it...

I was into D&B in 1996-97. Then I got bored. It suffers the same problem Detroit Techno does: Define a genre by its limitations (keeping it 'true' or 'real'), and it doesn't have much room to evolve or grow. Just like a fish only grows as large as the bowl its in.

Goldie, Grooverider, Photek, LTJ Bukem, and Roni Size were some of the guys I used to listen to.

I was really into Goldie's stuff, especially his first album...

I love it!

I love listening drum & bass when your just chillin. I don't know shit about it though.

Posted by PasteyMoFo on Jul-19-2001 00:30:

I, for one, like it.
In fact, I embrace all forms of electronica, except for NRG/Gabber/Happy Hardcore.

From
Drum 'n Bass
to
Trip Hop

From
Hard House
to
Deep Trance.

However, just talking about Drum N Bass, I'd save my favorites are:
- LTJ Bukem: Atmospheric DNB, imagine driving across the country listening to his stuff...
- Photek: Laid Back DNB, Good stuff, especially the form & function CD...
- Dieselboy: Deep Evil DNB, For those times when punching through walls and killing fluffy little bunnies isn't enough...

...

what? you didn't like my fluffy little bunnies analogy?

**This is funny that you mention it. I was spinning Drum and Bass until a couple of months ago when I switched to Trance (bigger market over here for it). The artists aforementioned (LTJ, Photek) really aren't considered 'hardcore' Drum and Bass to that crowd (FYI), the new 'thing' is Hardware label artists, such as Usual Suspects, Absolute Zero, and the Armageddon CD compilations. Dieselboy is popular stuff as well.

There is a whole sub-division of Drum and Bass that enjoys a newer-style (that I don't really care for), I'm sure you've heard it, where the 'rapper' raps over the spinning, much like how AK1200 pioneered. The only problem is you have these guys yelling over the music the entire time, freestyling, and its horrible! Everyone has their own tastes, and Ckerr812 is correct, that Drum and Bass just sounds like sped-up hip-hop. Good day.**

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^awwwww nooooooooo........switched over cause the market was bigger......aawwww noooooooo.......you can tell sphinx is a TA in training..........aaaaah man that just made my day a shitty one.....I'm not gonna have a good sleep tonight

anyway............I totally agree wit that MC'n freestylin bullshit
I think it ruins the music......I like good dark drum n bass
but I don't think I could go to a dnb party and stay all night

"Ckerr812 is correct, that Drum and Bass just sounds like sped-up hip-hop"

i disagree, i think its just sped up breaks... if you play a 45 at 33, then that's exactly what you get

not in my opinion, hiphop....
i havent heard any of that rapper stuff over d&b tho

and yea i like that dark stuff
and also trippy stuff which is fucking hard to beatmix

and vocals and strings and pianos (probably d&b cheese?)

**Oh I miscommunicated myself I'm sorry. I did not switch for money, I liked Trance before, but I happened to be in Drum and Bass. I think I mentioned before that Drum and Bass was popular over here. The club changed format, however, so I too had to change. It was for the better, however, because I did not like the direction Drum and Bass was going.
I agree with you, KevinExcite, the dark Drum and Bass is great. The evil sounds really do damage on the floor.**

D&B rulez... it's a good change from Trance music once in a while...
But listening to too much of it kinda makes me go nuts after a while

Wtf?

Posted by FinnHawk on Jul-21-2001 03:07:

I enjoy a little DnB altho I'm not a big fan of the genre in general...

You know what I think I might really enjoy, if anyone would have the guts to make it... TRANCEY DRUM AND BASS, and I don't mean just atmospheric. I mean REALLY trancey. But since DnB is like the ANTI-TRANCE genre that seems unlikely for any DnB producers to do, altho Breaks has already gone trancey (like Hybrid), so maybe Trancey Jungle/DnB is next logical evolution.

If there already is some GOOD Trancey DnB, I'd love to heard about it.

I highly recommend the J Majik drum and bass remix of Hatiras - Spaced Invader. It's the tranciest DnB that I've ever heard. The original track is a trancey House track.

Hatiras - Spaced Invader (J Majik remix)
download it from www.audiogalaxy.com or wherever you get your goods.

Drum N Bass

I love Drum N Bass, but Trance more... Still nothin like hearin some hardcore bassy tracks when you need it.

Posted by Kurve on Jul-21-2001 04:44:

DnB/Jungle...i like it if its Very Acidy or Dark Evil sounding shit ...and no Vocals please no!!!!

whenever i hear that Ragga shit..... i have to hold my mouth close because im scared i might throw up!!! that shit is the worst form of any electronic music...ever ever made...i would rather hear Cheeziest asss Europe Dance music then listen to Ragga Jungle......fuckin YUCK im sorry if some of u like it i just think its fuckin terrible....and anyhow does anyone understand what the fuck those ragga Mcs say anayway....... ok just thought i expressed my views..... and i know its not really DnB =)

Posted by The []Drodigy on Jul-21-2001 04:55:

Well I am kinda into raw d'n'b too.
Heard of Decoder? Technical Itch,Future Cut,Total Science,E-Sassin Bad Company and Dieselboy himself produce that sofrta type of very hard drum'n'bass.
If are into that kinda stuff then it's definately worth checking them out.
Peace.
