For me its out of Planet Dust, Pulse, Bullet Time or Hornet
Also sick tunes:
And this.... Fuuuuck forgot about this, definitely up there for me:
I always remember this tune had a different build up when I used to listen to it... Still absolutely massive though

[old man waxing nostalgic here]
I remember resisting )EIB( at first cuz I was all hard on the jungle/ragga tip and all that... and then I heard "Navajo" and had to admit I was a fool for buying into genre politics. Also, a local jungle DJ (Sage) did vocals for "Breathe" and altho it's not the greatest vocal ever, it made me proud to realize that where I lived had some connection to this sound I had fallen in love with.
Runners up are "Nitrous" and "Dream Thief."

Yup. I do have a soft spot for Night Train though. Used to rinse that when I DJ'd dnb.

The Nine made quite a big impression. Haven't heard it in a year or so and I know exactly how it goes.

Planet Dust for me, the bassline and drums are soooo bouncy

yeah, gotta go with The Nine, but Oxygen is a straight up banger as well

The funny thing is The Nine was basically made up of recycled parts from an older Fresh & Vegas tune

I remember walking around secondary school with inside the machine in one of those proper chunky portable CD players. That, 36 chambers and the score.
I think i got a good education
Of course you have The Nine, brain scan etc... but here are some personal hi-lights:
Not saying these are the most hard hitting, but they are the ones that strike a chord with me musically, production wise and for nostalgic reasons.
Shame quality on this first one is so shit
(Skip to 1:40) i remember clubbing to this one a lot.
And for some totally Balls to the walls no holds bars DnB I have always loved this

@ pete - it's funny how different we see things. In my mind, DnB peaked long before BC. By 99/00 it was so formulaic... Bad company was one of the crews I just couldn't get into. the bastardization of the sound imo
