Some melodic liquid stuff (never mind the cheesy pics)

Not gonna lie, I do love me some liquid dnb. It seems to help me rediscover the sort of feelings and emotions I used to receive when I was exploring trance and progressive releases. I guess it's no surprise that I tend to dwell on that side of the spectrum, rather than the soulful side. But here are two tracks that I managed to find while I was digging for liquid dnb tunes.

Hey Kev, you heard this one yet?
Technically, LTJ Bukem and Good Looking Records are not classified as Liquid Funk. That sound is considered "Atmospheric" or "Intelligent" Drum & Bass. The key word here is "Funk".
According to Wikipedia...

Liquid funk is very similar to intelligent drum and bass, but has subtle differences. Liquid funk has stronger influences from soca, latin, disco, jazz, and funk music, while IDB creates a calmer yet more synthetic sound, using smooth synth lines and samples in place of the organic element achieved by use of real instruments.

In fairness, Bukem did invent atmospheric and most of his and GLR's most famous tracks are text-book atmospheric: Music, Horizons, Demon's Theme, the whole of Logical Progression. Even when I was a trance kid who knew nothing that didn't involve lasers I'd heard of this legendary Logical Progression compilation.
But yeah, that sound hasn't been representative of either for a long, long time.

Well, this thread made me go look for more stuff. Thought I'd post this one up, it's more on the atmospheric side of things but I think it's absolutely lush.
