Someone asked me about joker and purple wow was all about and I told them that prince had the patent on purple and I stopped going wow after about his third release when I realised that all his tunes were going to sound the exact same :roll: Agreed, up to a certain point. Although his tracks don't ...

drum and bass is dying, due to the fact that it's very fast and it's quite hard to blend it with some other styles, especially rhytmic ones... ant it's pretty old now so a big new thing in dnb could save it, but i don't think it'll happen.. dubstep is fluctuating around 140 bpm, and there so much s...

Just have a terrible taste in music.

Yea Glyphic really is an amazing album...as is A.M.A Which ones would you reccomend to a novice?? :D Torque Gritty, dark, industrial soundscaping, with a twist of gangster hip-hop samples for good measure. Photek - Modus Operandi Movie score breakbeat science - cold and precise as a ninja. Icons - ...

Mmm, I am not really a d&b head as such, so I wouldnt know of the above list except maybe Black Secret Technology, however, I put it to you.. Skream - Skream Benga - Newstep/Diary's of an afro warrior Dusk & Blackdown - Margins Music Horsepower - In Fine Style El-B - The Roots of El-b Vario...

Take these jungle/d&b albums as a case in point: A Guy Called Gerald - Black Secret Technology Torque T Power - The Self Evident Truth of an Intuitive Mind Alpha Omega - Journey To The Ninth Level Goldie - Timeless Omni Trio - Skeleton Keys Decoder - Dissection Marvellous Cain - Gun Talk 4 Hero ...

Difficult call for me but I'd have to go for dubstep. Drum & Bass was the most exciting thing happening in UK music from '93 to around '97 or '98 and then tailed off pretty sharpish. There have been some good releases in the genre since then but the scene has generally lacked imagination. Dubst...

Both are great and you can't really ever say one is better than the other as it's just art. What you can state is that dubstep hasn't even got close to having a back catalogue as diverse and jawdropping as jungle. As an indicator, just compare the number of 5* albums between the two. The gulf is huge.

You can kinda understand why people don't get it. The vast majority of dubstep being churned out now is pretty turd tbh.

People don't have the time or the patience to dig through and find the interesting bits.

Deadly.

Bad

Alongside dBridge & Instra:mental check out: Consequence Bop Blocks Data Escher Seba Dub-One Commix Abstract Elements Phuture T Fanu Reactiv ASC Nebula D&B doing pretty nicely behind the scenes. Getting out the limelight has done it loads of good I feel. People need to end their prejudices a...

Pretty spot on.

But in actual fact it's shit.

I'd call that a fairer review.

ZIQ204 SUMONE - OBLIVION 2x12"

ZIQ226 EQUINOX - VIVID DREAMS 12"

ZIQ145 BIZZY B - RETROSPECTIVE 3LP/CD


All about these.

Never mind all the rubbish dubstep.

Running out of ideas

Ok, fair maybe I jumped to conclusions there. Regardless, I have to dig equally as deep for decent dubstep these days. What that says about the creativity of the scene there I'm not sure.

I don't mind looking though as long as there's good stuff to be found!

Syhr. I completely disagree, but can't be bothered to get into this discussion again. Needless to say the way people dismiss d&b as a spent force is a tad irritating. And I really don't believe you've dug deep enough to comment on this, particularly as you lump all producers from this genre into...

Amen free does not equate to happiness in my book.
