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

[illstep]

i am looking for tracks similar to this one

theres alot of great liquid out there, alot of minimalistic dnb, but i can't seem to find tunes with such a technoish/progressive style that are still dnb. :/ help me out, guys!

[Destiny]

These last week I've been really digging the next releases:

Octane & DLR - Method in the Madness
Let Me Go (Break Remix) is so awesome, and damn that Cometh Horde track is stereo goodness, amen.

SPY - What the Future Holds
Love Hurts & What the Future Holds are amaaaaazing.

Naibu - Fall EP
Never heard of Naibu before, but the first track on the EP already left a really good impression on me. The rest of the EP didnt dissapoint.

Jaydan - Instatiable / Elements
Really strong single there. Really loving the typical Jaydan Jump Up stuff, but this release is so deep & clean.

Ivy Lab - Afterthought & Brat
Frank Carter, need I say more? Lovely, lovely tune Afterthought is.

And there's soooo much more that I can't leave out.

SPY & Kasra - Surface VIP & So Real (Mefjus Remix)
The Upbeats - Diffused
Wickaman - The Chant EP (The Chant has to be one of the best tunes released ever...)
Rene Lavice - All My Trials & Not Deep
Dbrigde - Mainline & Apathy

And so on... Damn, the DnB World is releasing so much amazing stuff that I just can't keep up. Im'ma have to start dedicating a whooooole lot more time to dig dig dig. Wish I grew up in the era of Vinyl goodness.

This is what I grabbed:

Fade - Robotic Funk/Tripod/Bring The Madness
EastColors - Strange Talk/I Don't Know Why/I Become Older
Detail - Exhaustion/Resonance
Beastie Respond - Ficticious Nostalgia LP Sampler
Survival and Silent Witness - Into The Wild LP
Seba - Identity LP
Skeptical - Frozen/Static
Overlook/Blocks and Escher - Three Shards/Embers
Ruffhouse - Strangers/The Domino Effect
Paradox - Crate Logic/Scorpius
Danny Scrilla - Shogun/Thorium (Can't remember the EP name)
ASC - Reality Check (Method One Remix)
Mikal - The Chant (Rido Remix)

I have hard timing finding great DNB for myself.
Too much really mediocre stuff coming out these days with tons of hype and promo.
Last big thing for me was the DRS LP which was superb and got it on 2x12".

[Damien1138]

Oh wow, this thread is still going strong! amazing.

[Destiny]

But that DRS LP was huuuuge! I'm not that picky, maybe that's why I find there's so much great music. Makes it harder to choose tunes & get familiarised with them. Should just get a crate of vinyl, some gear & isolate myself!

[Flash101uk]

the DRS LP was amazing, if you like that, definitely pick up the ENEI LP.

The dnb world seems to be mostly about the labels, they are the quality control filter for the rest of us.
I go by:

Dispatch recordings
Critical Music
Exit records
spearhead records
shogun audio
CIA records
Samurai Red Seal
Commercial Suicide
Nuirections
im:lTD
Ingredients
Symmetry
Horizons
BMT
Program

(thats not an exhaustive list)

When I browse, if its not on there or by an artist I recognise, it doesn't even get a listen. Cuts the wheat from the chaff pretty quickly, although I do miss some great music.

But as you guys say, theres literally too much stuff out there to get through.

Love Naibu, his older works are even more spectacular!

Oh wow, this thread is still going strong! amazing.

Yeah, I think I have started something in the days of way back.
