Drum and Bass

[skra75]

I've had a renewed interest in Drum and Bass lately, specifically vintage stuff or stuff that has a downtempo deconstructed 1994 feel (omni trio, ltj bukem).

When I re-listen to that stuff it's amazing how weirdly vintage it sounds now, it's rather enjoyable considering 5 years ago if I heard drum and bass I would have smacked my face against the wall hoping someone would shut it off.

Any crispy vintage dnb acts you'd like to make mention of?

Moving Shadow
MetalHeadz
Breakbeat Science
Jungle Sky
Full Cycle


Even though I enjoy hard ass jungle/dnb....it sucks that it has become the most popular sound (including the darker edged dubstep). I was a huge fan of 3d and Snuggles (back when tech step started emerging stateside), but do enjoy some lighter sounds as well.
