The Drum & Bass Thread (formally Drum 'n' Bass is dead?)

[..]

In terms of grimey 2-step try checking out 'Oxide & Neutrino' and 'So Solid Crew'. Its got a lot of vocals (thus is nearly Grime, but stil considered garage).

Other then them try checking old Dee Kline Espc. the track 'I Don't Smoke', huuuge back in 1999/2000. (before he started making of breaks), hes one of the classic new wave of more grimey 2-step producers (as opposed to classic UK Garage) which eventually became breaks.

If you want darker 2-step garage (not as dirty tho), the stuff which was pretty much a precursor to dubstep I highly highly recommend El-B and Groove Chronicles. The Groove Chronicles track 'Stone Cold' is probably my favorite track of all time. Heaviest. Bass. EVER.

Wow, this one brings back memories... And if it doesn't, here's a sampler:

Though for a long while the heaviest bass was DJ Krust - Warhead.

(Nowadays, I think that would be Bar 9 - Shaolin ?)

Stone Cold ?

You dont hear it a lot these days, love the bassdrop (imo heavier then warhead, Stone Cold is the only track I've had break my Mackie MR8's). I did a DnB mix of it as a fuck around a while back. Not heaps of a remix tbh, mostly re-seqencing it a bit and adding new drums/snares and changing the temp to 170ish. was fun tho.
