Big ups on the Ed Rush and Optical. Saw them outside of Austin back in 2010. That party was like a wetdream come true

Oh man. I forgot all about Ram Trilogy! Nice. I too have some Ed Rush & Optical records. I have the ones with Gasmask, and Kerbkrawler, and their remix of We Want Your Soul.

Got a pile of golden stuff. Had to slay my collection from 15 crates down to 2 when I came back to Aus, so every one of them is a gem.

My mate used to pull the most wicked mix of this:
And this:
He literally got it to the point so he would fire in the mix so they both dropped in harmony. Then he got into smack and sold his gold plated 1210's....

and such a bomb track from 98, shame the copy here's dirty... mine's perfect still.
and more than 15 years later the same guys are still releasing on the same label. That's some dark shit.

Glad to see I'm not the only one.
I started off with dnb because, you know, I've been listening to a lot of Dom & Roland as of late.
But, as many of you guys, probably started with Jungle and Hardcore back in the day, so, without further ado, here's my utter favourite from back in the day. A very nice record shop called Boogie times had a tribe, and the rest they say, is history: This is the q-project mix of it. It is not the original. I have all three versions. Johnny Jungle is good to. But of course he'd be. Boogie Times tribe was magic.
Then Jungle Happened. And, artists known as Krome & Time. Oh, what a wonder they were.
And a bit more jungle happened:
Then, drum and bass, moving away from the reggae/ragga vibes, which was a bit of a shame if you ask me. But, these days, there's plenty of good and violent dnb out there. Dom & Roland are still producing, but there's others I'd like to give a mention to
So, in the late 90's, Andy C did a RAM records special mix set and it was lovely. It had lots of stuff by Dom & Roland, the vocals is Leonardo da Vinci on Captain Janeway's personal fantasy holodeck program;
Then in 2003 I heard on Grooverider & Fabio show, which is always good. Grooverider is always looking for music to hurt with, he shares my itch.
Not all DNB has to be about violence. There's songs about stealing watermelons. Which I can understand: My love for watermelon borders on felonious sometimes.
Did you know the Dutch make DNB to? Well, their version of drum and bass, which I like more than anything I've heard from the US. I dunno why, but it's like, it's not quite right. Like when people in the UK do hip-hop. It aint quite right.
Also, honourable mention for Panacea, who are German. They did a one off called gunrunner and it's not dnb. I dunno what it is, but I fucking like it, and someone put it on youtube, finally, saving me the effort of trying to find my turntable.
Stormbringer
Gunrunner
And finally, as it is supposed to be summer here in damp af England, here's a song from back in the day.
Which is quite easy to dance to! Sometimes it's not about dancing, but flailing your arms about like a spaz whilst not giving a solitary fuck because: a) everyone else is to b) if they're not what the hell are they doing at a jungalist rave? Fucking go mental. c) pills mate.

I have been listening to a decent amount of liquid DnB recently, I like the more mellow vibe from it, the jazzy influence is great. Also try to check out people that do their own mixes, that are not well known, you know just to support those starving artists.
Here's a good liquid DnB mix.
Japanese DnB makes you feel like you're in a anime when listening to it, all the visuals take on Japanese shapes. I was searching for Japanese Electro mixes earlier when I stumbled upon this, I like it. Japanese dance music tends to be rather bouncy and happy sounding, not as dark as other styles.
Also some jungle.

When it comes to atmospheric, uplifting DnB, I love LTJ Bukem. I wrote a whole thing about trying to describe Demon's theme and how it sounds like an actual jungle. There's something in the effects that sounds like a tropical bird, and part of the melody just sounds like rays of the sun. I fucking loved this song back in the day when running around getting shot lots in lazerquest and playing unreal tournament.
