New Concord Dawn track blows me away. I haven't heard a lot by them, but they seem to kind of have their own distinct sound. I really like it - kinda dark and edgy (this track at least).

If I'm understanding you correctly, here's some more that have the sort of drops you're looking for, I think:

Mistabishi - The Lights Really Bad

MRSA - Different
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnb6lJQEMeY

High Contrast - Chances
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66GW4lhjM7g

Rusko - Hold On [Sub Focus Remix]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI2b7qXUlnE

Lemme know if I'm off-track here.
Re-listed them in order of my preference.
Nope, solidly on track man! Really loving the first two there. High contrast is OK, but Hold On's drops seem a bit anemic and "flat".

Here's a tune I recently heard that's probably cringy as hell to some, but it reminds me of the sort of thing I loved when I was new to dnb, plus it might be the sort of thing Xerxes is looking for:

Feint - Clockwork Hearts

This is one of my favorites by Feint. You should also check out "Vision Driver" by him.

But yeah, that 1925 track is easily one of my favorite tunes right now. I think what I really love is the heavy sub-bass with the kicks that come in at 1 minute in. Hell of a lot of energy on this one. These guys are pretty awesome.

So, I was at Gameworks last night/this morning and I was playing this game called "DJ MAX: Technika 2" and there was this really cool Drum & Bass Track in it called "Bee-U-Tiful" by some artist called First Aid. It was really cool, so definitely give it a listen

guys I love you all. I've been into Drum and Bass for years and been around Dogs on Acid, dnbforums and breakbeat.co.uk boards and I always felt that a lot of people on there were way too close minded about Dnb, most of the time you get called out for listening to clownstep if you don't adhere to what the guys on there listen. Also the rivalry between those boards always made me laugh.

I found this awesome Dnb thread a few weeks ago and basically went thru it entirely and I found so many new and old tunes to add into my mixes it's incredible, you sirs have good tastes :tipshat:

While I'm on another DJ based forum, this thread trumps their entire DnB section. Thank you all for being civil, knowledgeable, respectful, and fun!

The other track on that single, Blok-o-theque, is pretty good too. Gutter Queen takes the cake though - hell of a lot of energy on that track.

The new Loadstar remix is good too. Anxiously awaiting the arrival of Berlin / Hit the Ground. Both of those tracks are awesome.

That's easily my favorite track in the game. (gently caress the HD chart though)

If you're interested, the guy actually has a Soundcloud which also has some pretty good stuff. I haven't checked it in a while, but I recall the first few tracks he uploaded being some awesome chill Drum & Bass.

I've been playing at the Dave & Buster's in Irvine (SoCal), but they took the machine out a couple weeks ago. So nowhere, at the moment. I mostly play at UCLA though when I'm in school.

I wish there were enough people who cared/played to make a thread in Games, but I'm guessing there isn't. Don't want to derail this thread too much. :ohdear:

Wilkinson - Refugee
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8m8Z6nfnHk

Oh, and Mister Snips and chrix, I agree with you guys 100%. There's something about jazz and dnb/jungle coming together that just clicks in a phenomenal way. I love pretty much anything in which those two sounds are combined.

Got a bit of an interesting one here:

Neon Concept - Northern Lights
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8MI0IWRDdo

Now, the tune itself's not particularly great, but the bassline (comes in at around 1:30) is really hitting the spot. Maybe someone here has heard something similar in a better tune they could point me towards, or maybe I'm just mad and my complete and utter lack of production know-how is clouding things somewhat.

Just a really low, constant bass sound? I don't think it has a name. It's like dubstep wobble without the wobble filter. But these songs use that type of synth

I didn't mean to come off as condescending but I looked through about 20 random songs for you and most of them have it. Really its more of a jungle thing than liquid but its somewhat akin to asking for Industrial with movie samples.

Old Town Road to EGOT

I've got the di.fm app on my iPhone, and lately their Liquid D&B station is all I've been listening to in my car to drive around to. I haven't even reached for my iPod in days.

Anyway, here's two tracks I heard on there tonight that are new favorites of mine:

Artemis - Elysian Fields
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hh4I-J0M24w

Quadrant - Only Mortal
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhDUxxBYXQ4

The Artemis track is much more chill than the Quadrant track, which is pretty drat energetic and much easier to speed to while driving.

The Earth stuff is actually really cracking. Not exactly energetic stuff but it's perfect after the club wind down kind of stuff. Plus the artwork is great too. Especially the later volumes. I'll actually get round to buying the 12" boxes one of these days just to have them in a proper size. I really am one of those sad cunts who's bought music strictly because they think the cover is nice.

Of course on saying all that, just remember every GLR release you buy goes towards not paying the royalties of the artists involved.

I meant stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoHxHOzaDi8
