Thanks for the new thread Rageaholic Monkey! OP needs a little more info, but it's a great start! Just noticed last Jungle in the OP, love that tune! I'm hooked on Spor's Overdue (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FACB8jh_T24) at the moment. For some reason I've really been into female vocals in my dnb lately. fenner posted:I think all of those are signed with Hospital Records.. Interesting. I guess hospital snap up all the decent lighter dnb artists, are there any other major labels? In short, Hospital is the premier liquid funk (lighter style) dnb label. They also have a few sub-labels such as Med School and M*A*S*H. Other labels you might want to check out would be Breakbeat Science, RAM Records, and Metalheadz just to name a few.

Probably late to the party about this, but Sick Music 2 is exactly that. I can't get enough of Twin Galaxies (The Upbeats Remix) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwl0_ehLON4. I'll admit, I didn't think they would be a group that I'd be following as close when I first heard them. I think their ability to pull off different styles unexpectedly well has kept me intersted. Check out their remix for Minuit's Aotearoa for example...http://www.amplifier.co.nz/track/53880/aotearoa-upbeats-remix.html NZ has been killing it electronic music wise over the last few years.

Finally, we went about 5 posts without anything about Pendulum, ah crap. Bop - Tears Of A Lonely Metaphysician (Lynx + Hellrazor remix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQSYAsua9hM Would anybody hate me if I said I'm not a fan of Nu:Tone's new sound? How do you go from Nu:Tone ft Natalie Williams - System I mean come on Nu:tone and Natalie Williams - Strange Encounter for goodness sakes. Now his music sounds more catered towards the jump up market. Maybe I just need to get out more, I'm sure his current tunes sound fun in a club and slightly silly just sitting around.

I have, and maybe jump up isn't the right thing to say about them but I'm just not feeling them as much as his older stuff. Again though, I haven't been to a proper show in a good bit so lets hope I can take my head out of my rear end and be able to listen to fun tracks again.

Dell_Zincht posted:Speaking of sick drops, why the gently caress has this never been released? Lot's of VIP mixes don't get "released". Most of the time it's just to have something different in your arsenal rather than having the same version everybody else is dropping. People do eventually get a hold of them though, it trickles down from friends of big names that get the promo, then their friends bug them enough and get it, etc. etc. Ewun's Screw Up VIP was never "released" but I heard a few ATL DJ's playing it out. In contrast, Spor's - Knock You Down VIP was never released and I don't think I've ever heard it outside of a Spor mix. Drum & Bass - PYF Clownstep Choonz http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPXPwr06eAA

cheese-cube posted:Edit: what is everyones opinion on MCs when it comes to D&B? I've heard some good ones but I've also heard some awful ones. Echo'ing Manoli, there are a lot of really bad MC's at local or rave events. I've been to quite a few shows where the MC didn't know when to shut up and would throw some random lines at really odd times then run around like he was a bad rear end. The pro's know the right time to get everybody hyped up and when to shut up. Also your example is kinda strange, do you just mean vocals in dnb period? or vocals by MC's? I'm by no means in the "everything high contrast touches is gold" crowd, but High Society is a great tune. To get it out of the way, I enjoy High Contrast album material, his whitelabels and remixes just sound so darn...poppy? Maybe that's the point though, whatever though.

5000 words and not a mention of clownstep?! I'm joking, Agro isn't technically a genre title and I guess the term it is more commonly referred to as is (Chris don't hate me) Darkstep (I guess anyway could be called Hardstep too but, DOA calls it Skullstep sometimes). I've been stuck with limited internet access and files for the past few weeks and I've become addicted to Noisia's Machine Gun and the Spor remix. I'm also starting to enjoy some Wonky but that's not even for this thread.

Mexican Samurai posted:Man, this is really relaxing. Does anyone know of any other kind of chill Drum N Bass? There's tons by lots of different producers, so there's not necessarily a "chill-n-bass" style. Here's a few examples... The Upbeats feat. Jess Chambers - Through the Night http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhphZTi1Qvk Normally you think of fast paced, aggressive, darkish dnb when you see The Upbeats associated with something. The whole Big Skeleton album is a nice mix of dancefloor tunes and unexpected bits. London Elektricity - Just One Second (Apex Remix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGNDlLiVBK0&feature=related We don't even need to discuss how great LE or Apex are, so you know the remix is great. Alix Perez & Sabre - Solitary Native http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfFsQFuTbxU&feature=related This song. I love this loving tune. The flipside "Old Flame" is good poo poo too. EDIT: I came to add Bop to that list, but I feel like enough people would argue me down that Bop isn't even drum and bass. To that, I say I don't really care, I feel like Bop has and is having an interesting influence on dnb that it hasn't really had before. So here you go... Bop - Tears Of A Lonely Metaphysician http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6IRqCA1nfM&feature=related There was a Bop remix EP recently released on Med School. http://www.iambop.com/releases/medic19/ I could post a bunch of other stuff but I'm not sure if it fits in what you consider "chill drum and bass", I assume that's different for everyone. Also is it safe to assume not a lot of people are into drumfunk? As for what I'm into, kinda like Manoli but I fluctuate a lot. I used to be really into breakcore and darkstep while bordering on liquid. Now I'm more about liquid and whatever else I think sounds good or fun, nothing cheezy though. I love me a good ragga tune every now and then, even the ones that turn into crazy drill poo poo. I haven't been out to a dnb event in over a year now and I hate it. Everything is focused on dubstep down here, even the ATL cats that were nothing but dnb and jungle rarely have a dnb guy down. Nashville never really had a cohesive enough scene to keep events going for more than a short while so everything there is random as hell. If I sound a bit bitter I'm not, okay well maybe I am, but I do like UK Funky stuff and a bit of Wonky dubsteps as well as a host of other types of music both clubbish and not.

Just got back from AK1200 (he replaced Sigma at the last minute due to work visa complications). I haven't been to a dnb event in a while, and well...I don't think I can again for a good while. Not until all this overly heavy dubstep goes away. The other room was annoying grinding and silly laser bass the entire night. The dnb room was...strange and disconnected. Even during AK1200's set it didn't seem like a dnb scene, but more of a bunch of random people in a room while music was playing. The crowd was bad, and AK1200 was noticeably confused as to what direction to go in. I think he lost a lot of momentum really quick when the monitors stopped working in the middle of his first song. From there he had to long mix jump up to try to keep the crowd going, but after the 3rd song people spread out and left. By the end of the night I think about 8 people were left in the crowd. Overall his set was alright, too much jump up for my tastes, but I think I would have had a nervous breakdown dealing with a crowd like that. Anyway, if some of this doesn't make sense blame it on the fact that it's 4:26am. Edits: Thanks for the mix Chris, I'll listen as soon as the ringing in my ears stops. Hopefully by morn.

ManoliIsFat posted:hahah awww man that's so heartbreaking. i can see it in your story, he was trying sooo hard to win over the crowd. he is a hard dude, i've seen him mix up sets like crazy. if he's playing jump up after jump up track he's obviously trying to salvage something. that's so sad that a room can kill such a legendary, masterful dj like that. Indeed, it was very painful to watch. I've have seen him throw down at the POTD's before, but last night was just weird. I will say though, Nashville has a habit of liking ridiculous jump-up on the borderline of clowny in respect to dnb. The crowd was crazy weird though, I don't blame AK one bit for that set.

dethkon posted:Well actually, what's the difference between half-step and just regular breakbeat/breaks? The BPM is the same, those half-step tracks that were posted sound like breaks to me. Hip-hop, too, is around 90 BPM... Half step's kick-snare rhythm is usually more spread out. DNB breakbeats are usually kick--snare--kick-snare @ 170+bpm. I typed a bunch of other stuff that only halfway made sense and deleted it. It should be pretty easy to hear the difference. Edit: Aren't breaks around 125 or 130bpm? Or did you not mean that type of breaks?

I can finally serious post again. Hospital has released something brilliant (again)! Various Artists - Hospital Accapellas http://shop.hospitalrecords.com/product/nhs171/ That's right, vox from some of the best Hospital tracks in one download. It's like they took a list of some of my favorite tracks and put them all on one disc and said here have fun with the audio tracks. The latest podcast has a few exclusive mashups, and some of the original tracks. Also related to Hospital, Danny Bird's second LP should be out 27th of Sept. Now something a bit more heavy. Alix Perez has a new EP out soon, here's what to expect from it. Alix Perez - Menacing Ways http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adQfhPHt-4E Alix Perez Feat Foreign Beggars - Dark Days http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qxr9CxynYNc Alix Perez - Behind Time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFzKSjklCx0 Noisia & Alix Perez - Loose Ends http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0qAcvcl5A0&feature=related Edit: Oh yeah, B-Complex's single with Beautiful Lies VIP and Little Oranges releases on Hospital on the 26th of this month.

You can do a pretty decent mix with a decent 5.1 or even 2.1 computer speaker setup, don't believe me? It's what High Contrast used before he got signed to Hospital. Also, headphone mixing will make you go deaf quicker. If all else fails, you can make a song, burn it to a cd or whatever and play it in your car to see how the bass fairs.

Rockwell did a Shogun Audio thing on Rinse.FM last night (it's up in their podcasts). It was....interesting, to say the least. He started out with a Mount Kimbie track and a "funky house" tune he made (not sure if it's under a different alias or even going to see the light of day). Then after a few UK Funky tracks and then it got odd. He played 3 back to back Ghostface Killa songs, it was very odd. After that a couple of grime tunes a chill tune and then dnb finally. A heads up, if you only want to hear the dnb tunes on the podcast skip ahead an hour. It was alright overall I suppose, but not what I was expecting. I could have gone without the Ghostface and Grime tunes, but only because Teddy was next.

Anae posted:I got confused trying to watch his actual physical mixing, but then I realised you meant look at the Serato screen, and yeah, it makes no sense. For example his transition from System to Ill Behaviour - the transition happens with only one Serato track playing. So both System and Ill Behaviour were on that one MP3, evidently. This would be excusable if it was a mash-up, but it's not, it's a (fairly rubbish) mix. He then mixes into another Serato track at 6:24 (notice the top one stop moving) but it continues to be Ill Behaviour, with his next tune pre-mixed in (listen to the drums). Yeah, hopefully that video is just horribly out of sync. I didn't look at the waveforms, however picking up the needle on a deck means at least one song should stop playing. That clearly didn't happen. DJ edits are alright, but if he's pre-mixing transitions that's just ridiculous. It seems like you'd have to go out of your way to do cheaty mixing like that, but I guess some guys are obsessed with sounding like a mix cd.
