L Double was a don. He too went down the steppers path and became a big radio DJ and all that, but his early tunes are still way influential to me.

Version. This one came out on Reinforced:



L Double & Younghead - New Style. This one is still an anthem to me 15 years later:



Low Key Movements - Ear Drums. I love this tune. This was L Double, ST Files and someone else. These subs hit so hard. Another Reinforced cut:



Bass2Dark, Music of the 90's, there's a bunch more.

Same shit different decade.. (or now even going on two) lol.. A lot of people are so blind to how much the two are pretty much the same music. It was always a Jungle thing for me from the mid 90's on, I played a lot of the Jump up stuff when it came out for parties but aomewheres around 2002 -2003 I really just started waiting for something new to come out. Most of what was popular was that whole really busy Heavy Metal -ish sound I just couldn't get with (sound familiar?). Granted I really loved Techstep when it first hit a la Nico, Trace..etc. I still have mad crates of records, I can shred as a Ragga DJ.. Different era though, not interested in ever doing DnB again. I had a front row seat! :D

One guy that did convince me otherwise about 2-step drums is Jonny L. His beats had a heavy snap to them and he had a way with his basses. In fact, before this thread even came up, I had his record Cut-Off / Move Upon sitting on my turntable. These two tunes are so dope and the bass hits so hard, I can't find them on Youtube or else I would put them up. I don't know if anyone else here rates him or not. The Bells is another classic.

With that said, my favorite label is Reinforced Records. That shit really influenced me.

His track piper, obviously quite a hit for him was one of the first dnb tracks i heard back in 1994-5 and is still to this day one of my fav. The bass is hard, the mood is just right. Spot on
