EMUpirate posted: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. Breakbeat Science is probably finished as a label, but if someone is looking for good CDs and singles from the past, yeah, I would seek out the BBS stuff. Used CD shops might be a good place to score the CDs. A mention of Soul:R and V Recordings (they are slowly putting out new releases) would be good for the lighter fare. Maybe a nod to the resurgence of minimal, namely the latest output on Critical Recordings and some of the stuff on Shogun Audio (which I have always viewed as a culmination of several sub-genres), and specifically artists like Rockwell, Sabre, some of Alix Perez's material, Icicle, Code 3 (e.g. Jubei, SP:MC and Danzou), hell, most of the stuff on Exit Recordings lately. Also, I am a Commercial Suicide fan, great label to check out regularly. Almost at their 50th release, and I think Subtitles Recordings is up to about release 75.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:Pendulum - Fasten Your Seatbelts These two I would probably pull, for these reasons: • Pendulum - "Fasten Your Seatbelts" is a breakbeat tune (kind of tearout breaks, at that), tempo is about 132 BPM and not in the usual range of drum'n'bass (usually around 170 to 175 BPM, although the mid to late 0's stuff was sometimes in the 165 to 169 range, and earlier then that, it was 150 to 160). • Sub Focus - "Last Jungle" is like a throwback, retro tune, runs around 145 BPM. It has the feel and sound of old jungle, which has seen a little resurgence in the past year. A few other recent examples of this include: – Skream's "Burning Up" (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qi-4Fd187bs) on Digital Soundboy – Cluekid's "The Sound" (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btRBJ6M0JVI) on Aquatic Labs – Goth Trad's remix of Skream & Cluekid's "Sandsnake" (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJrLsr5aJys) on Disfigured Dubs All of those artists are generally associated with dubstep, but they are exploring outside of the stereotypical definition of dubstep, in my opinion. And I am sure there are ton of artists doing this, that I am not even aware of.

Doctor Londom posted:drat right they did, who doesn't like some Stakka & Skynet, Ed Rush, Optical, or Matrix. All of them had excellent albums in the late 90s, early 2000 as well: v/a (mostly Stakka & Skynet aliases) - 'Blazin' LP [Underfire] v/a - 'Clockwork' LP [Underfire] Ed Rush & Optical - 'Wormhole' LP [Virus] Matrix - 'Sleepwalk' LP [Virus] Also, the 'Platinum Breakz' LP on Metalheadz is great old stuff, as is Bad Company's first LP, 'Inside The Machine'. I liked their Digital Nation LP as well.

Here is the mix I did for the DOA x UAF DJ Mix competition, that was due today: STREAM: http://i.mixcloud.com/CSUt DOWNLOAD: http://www.sendspace.com/file/3oro3l TRACKLIST: 01. Trei - "Livewire" [SGN:LTD] 02. State Of Mind - "Wake Up Call - Awakening" [SOM Music] 03. Apex - "Same Old Blues" [Lifted Music] 04. Break feat. Kyo - "Last Chance (Remix)" [Symmetry] 05. The Qemests - "Your Revolution (Reso Remix)" [Ninja Tune] 06. Subscape - "Midnight" [Dub Police] -- Also, maybe add a link to Roll Da Beats in the OP? It is a great resource for drum'n'bass discographies, can help you find new stuff to check out too, e.g. you like Stakka & Skynet, so you look them up and see that they also go by Kraken and Profound Noise, as well as other related artists: http://www.rolldabeats.com

Thanks guys  I feel like I'm getting back in to form with DJing. I guess the main thing with this little mix (which a few friends are asking I make in to a full mix) versus the radio show sets is that I just wing it on the shows, where as this mix I worked out what I want to play and work out the mixes a bit before recording.

EMUpirate posted:NZ has been killing it electronic music wise over the last few years. There is something about the dnb guys from NZ. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I really like a lot of the tunes they have put out over the years. Mainly talking about Concord Dawn, Bulletproof, State of Mind, The Upbeats, Trei, Dose, Menace and Cern. muchitto posted:Optical - Swift glide Optical solo tunes from the late 90s are among my favorites. I recently tracked down the Metalheadz comp this was on, so I could have a playable copy. Also, his remix of Bliss & Tumble is great for the technical sound, while his remix of Boom Boom Satellites around this time is another great example of his more dance floor aimed tunes.

Urban Wizard posted:And what would you categorize Pendulum's "non" d'n'b songs as? Someone said breakbeat, but I'm not altogether convinced on that, yet. "Fasten Your Seatbelts" and "Out Here" on their first album are definitely breakbeat tunes. As for the non-dnb stuff on 'In Silico', I have no idea, I actually haven't heard that album. Last tune of theirs I bought was "Axle Grinder". As for similar artists, not sure how close you'll get to what they do, but maybe check out the other big acts like Sub Focus, Chase & Status, or maybe check out artists on labels like Technique Recordings (link: https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/label/detail/3419/technique_recordings), Viper Recordings (link: https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/label/detail/1757/viper_recordings), Breakbeat Kaos (they released the first Pendulum LP, link: https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/label/detail/913/breakbeat_kaos). If it's mainly the drum'n'bass + guitars hybrid that you liked, then check out the artist Night Breed on Ram Records (link: https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/track/catalog/?contextType=artists&contextName=Night%20Breed&contextEntityId=3403), or some metal cross over tunes like Concord Dawn's "Raining Blood" (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2nHKpalCh4) or KC's "Archangel" (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqBcsTx8Qws) and "Destroyed" (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uG7rja3rrZA).

Got any more recommendations for me? Sabre, Icicle, System, Code 3 and Ulterior Motive. You might like Stray and Triad too. Also keep an ear open for Hybris, a friend of mine who moved from DC to Prague a few years ago. He used to go by Evancipation and was part of Robot Death Squad. He has a single coming out on Critical's new sub-label, Modulations.

EMUpirate posted:Does anybody still have Konkrete Jungle events in their city? DC's second run of the name is wrapping up in a week or so, but the guys that ran it are going to continue doing a dnb/dubstep night at the same venue, same consistancy, just a different name. The main Konkrete was hitting them up for dues (something like $100 a month to use the name), and the guys in DC were doing the party as a free event for over the past year. There is a Konkrete Jungle Baltimore too, but those line-ups look fairly different from the DC ones, and different people are running that. Jonny 290 posted:What powers the scene/new tracks now? Are there any good dnb blogs that are worth following (for tracks/promos/previews, etc, I have 9157578541817 mix sets and don't need any more)? Check out Dubplate Digest (http://www.dubplatedigest.net/). DnB Arena and DOA are still around, but I don't know how good DnB Arena is. Also, Blame and Matrix make dance floor tunes, and dBridge is very avant garde & experimental.

Dramatika posted:Also, I don't have speakers at my work PC, but isn't Reso more of dubstep producer? Or does he go back and forth between genres? Anyways, if you like Reso, the Reso - Shower Half Hour mix is absolutely badass. Reso is mainly dubstep, but really hard-edged usually IMO, but he has done some really good, spacey sounding tunes around 140 BPM. I was a tear-out breaks fan, years ago, and when I got in to dubstep he really caught my attention. The past year he has really branched out to other tempos (check his releases on Civil Music), and now has three drum'n'bass tracks out ("Mind Games" on Civil, "Slap Chop" on Hospital and his remix of The Qmeists on Ninja Tune), and I've heard he's got more in the pipeline.

Longtiem posted:Also, I have a question. Does anyone know how to xstep, dnb step, whatever the gently caress you feel like calling it? (seriously 4 people from 4 different countries had different English translations of what it was, but all knew it when they saw it) I'd really like to get better at it, but frankly don't have a clue where to begin. Is this a style of dance? Longtiem posted:Also, for any of you still working DJs in DC/MD/VA find a way to keep us updated. I would go out dancing 4 days of the week if I could find a drat venue. Hell, artists everywhere for that matter. Everyone I know is so into this scene and dance/electro clubbing rather than top40 clubs, but wherever we find ourselves it's impossible to find a venue that plays music we really jam out to. Buzzlife forum - DC area events sub forum: http://www.buzzlife.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=45 District Soul forum - usually more house events listed here: http://www.districtsoul.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=5 DCDNB - a blog I run, I try to post a weekly round up of area dnb events/bookings on Tuesdays: http://dcdnb.tumblr.com Also, I doubt there will be much at Club 24 nowadays, but I didn't like the venue because they did not have the power to run sound systems properly. No dnb at U Street Music Hall yet (http://www.ustreetmusichall.com), but I know they have a few shows lined up for the summer and they have a lot of other great shows (had a great time at the Trouble & Bass monthly, last week). Some decent shows at Muse, but the venue has a lot quirks about it. I played at a fun show at the 411 Warehouse, which is on NY Ave., near the FedEx building on the corner of Florida Ave. And then Jimmy Valentine's has one or two dnb nights a month, plus a lot of other stuff.

Neurophonic posted:This is one of the things that I'd struggle with, working with soundsystems regularly. You guys seem to have to put in a lot more work than would otherwise be necessary just because of the arcane decision to hold off on AC supplies and then sticking at 110v. I'm lucky to find a 32 amp feed in a venue here at the best of times, but at least when I do I can hang double the amount of boxes off of it than I could over the pond. If you make it over the states and come down to DC, I'll take you to U Hall. It's what I wish all the sound systems in this city were like. Club 24 is a mess, probably a front and the owner just wants money coming through. The process to get the proper power rating to the building is supposedly minimal amount of work. The one show I played there, the promoter paid for a bunch of extra sound, friend of mine was running one of those systems and just complained about what a waste it was to bring in the gear they did.

Longtiem posted:When you played there do you remember two dudes and a bunch of ugly girls that handed you a note? If you do tell me what that note said. If you're the DJ that was there on the one night I have been, and a goon, I will literally fall over dead from what-a-small-world-disease. I played opening week, back in March, didn't get a note, but I know two goons that were there (NeverGirls and 2beans). I was hanging out in the booth the night Nadastrom & Tittsworth played though, and I think someone passed one of them a note during their set, but I didn't see it. I haven't been seeking out too many gigs lately, but I just got added to the Starscape line-up, and I'm playing a 4th of July party that 3D Productions is throwing. Neurophonic posted:I don't wanna get too spergy about soundsystems but they are a crucial part of drum and bass for me. We're quite fortunate here that the majority of events around the UK understand this and hire in walls of bass bins (mine included) to make a night something special. I've always been envious of UK (and EU in general) systems, most US stuff seems to be made for bands and not much thought in to dance music. The guys who did U Hall's system are old members of Telemetrik, when it was a crew rather than just Marcio's production alias, and their company is called ITI Audio Inc. I can put you in touch if you want, Billy and Adam are good dudes. They have a site too: http://www.itiaudio.com/. I'm pretty sure the system uses Martin Audio speakers, and MRK1 gave the system major props the night I played with him. And first song played on the system was "Inner City Life", although they have not had a dnb night yet, but I know of at least two planned and if I can get my finances to a point where I can set aside some money to throw events again, I might start doing some stuff occasionally.

chrix posted:I think there's definitely a gap between being a casual listener of dnb and someone who grabs up releases as soon as they hit digital distributors. I can definitely understand the want for an actual CD pressing with cover art, liner notes. I like having vinyl if it is the full art version, but I haven't bought any in over a year. Been trying to sell off a lot of promo copies of vinyl too, although there are certain releases that I would re-buy if I could find the full release version. Pretty much any release that I liked that was designed by Jon Black / Magnet Design (lots of old Metalheadz and Ram releases, also did the early Test releases and I think maybe the first few Virus & Metro releases). Also, all of the Violence releases (Jon Black did a lot of these, I think the other main designers were Dean/DJG [dubstep producer] and a guy in Los Angeles), and Commercial Suicide releases.

chrix posted:much appreciated, it was an off-the-cuff mix based on my radio show last week. I need to make more mixes and offer a d/l link (unless I'm blind and can't see it). Hollow Point was just kind of a default name I chose. When I started DJing, I couldn't think of a good stage name and some buddies and I were joking around that if I can't figure anything out, I'd pick Hollow Point because at least it didn't sound horrible. Definitely a good name! Hope you didn't take it as a "names taken, get a new one". I actually used to just go by Ransom, but then over the years found out about Ransom (now he usually goes by Joe Ransom), who is a resident at Fabric, and then DJ Ransom in Australia, who was a DMC champ down there. If you do an artist search for Ransom on Beatport, they have my two dnb releases mixed in with Joe Ransom's breakbeat release, since they were from around the same time. chrix posted:OH NOES PENDULUM. I like this tune too, and it sounds great on a massive system I've got my crate of guilty pleasures, a.k.a. "these will make the girls dance, and everyone else will follow."

Actually, if you ever check out Joe Nice's radio show, he always starts with something classic & non-dubstep, just to kind of reset the mood. Actually, I've seen him do this at parties too. And no better quality from WMUC :/ The mixes I record myself are 320 though.

KcDohl posted:Weee that was a good set, and to think I nearly missed this. I was born a loving decade too late I only caught part of Marcus Intalex before I had to get going. How was the whole thing? Did you catch my set, it was kind of early (10 to 11).

Longtiem posted:How was ground zero, hell, where is ground zero? I've been told that it is fly venue, did you like playing it? I played at Ultrabar, in DC. Ground Zero is a warehouse space in Baltimore that a few guys live in. I've been there once, three & a half years ago, and it was "rave" in the truest sense of the word: Ground Zero was the second & third floors of the warehouse, but they broke the lock to the first floor and set up shop, had like 500+ people in that room.

Anae posted:Bassy house. I don't want to come across as harsh, but there's nothing d&b/halfstep etc about either of those tracks. Yeah, Anae hit it. When I kept hearing the term "drumstep", I was thinking stuff like Amit's album on Commercial Suicide. Still fast tempo BPM, but more space between the songs elements, and drum patterns that were three kicks and then a snare, for the main hits. Also, some early Moving Fusion on Ram had this style to it, but didn't pick up. Actually, I think one of the Ram Trilogy tunes on the second or third EP they did.

Zahi posted:Every day my vestax remains broken is a bad day so here's some photos of my most recent DnB cache. Nice haul! The DJ Die remix of "The Planet Plan" was a sleeper, always loved it. What did you get off of Salvage and Dune? I still remember when Double A & Twist from Dune used to live in DC.

Zahi posted:Salvage is the Robot Death Squad Therapy mix My old roommate was 1/3rd of RDS, he's got some new stuff coming out under the SGNL moniker. And I got to check out Zion's Gate a few summers ago, but unfortunately I had family with me and didn't get to really dig through their crates

Zahi posted:Keep me updated cause RDS is so loving good. I mentioned earlier in the thread about Evan from RDS, he's going by Hybris now, just had a single on Critical's new Modulations label, and his newer stuff is getting support from Alix Perez, Rockwell, Sabre, Bailey and a few other big names. He's got a couple other things lined up. Bryan/SGNL has been working on a lot of different stuff, a lot of non-dnb, but a couple Autonomic-type of things at 170. He's got an album coming out on Spherix's new label. Didn't really know D-Struct, he only lived in DC for a few months, but from what Bryan has said, he's up in Seattle and I've seen a few recent releases with his name on OnSet Audio.

Bulldozer posted:I was listening to Jenna G - "Work It Out" today and although she isn't my cup of tea when it comes to DnB, I want to ask you guys something. Figured it out, sounded familiar, the tip was the artists (Die & Clipz): DJ Die & DJ Clipz feat. Ben Westbeech - "Number 1" [Full Cycle Records] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-SIfGTfeM8
