238 - Drum and Bass





Way back in the late 90s, I was open to a lot of electronic music, and drum and bass was really starting to emerge as more than a sub-genre or fad.  Sure, there was jungle, dark drum and bass, breaks, and then it kind of eventually morphed into dub step which I cannot stand.  I like the class rolling synthy 808 bass drops, the renegade snares, the choppy beats, the frantic nature of some of this stuff.  A friend once described the style as hip hop beats sped up, over reggae beats slowed down.  This is a bit of a manic mix, with some fast beats holding it together. Ending with more noise than traditional drum and bass, but that's how I like it.

No clue why I didn't include Omni Trio, Spring Heel Jack, or Ed Rush & Optical... or pretty much anything from Moving Shadow records.  I'll have to remedy that someday.
