What!? that's really a shame, she had a great voice :( RIP, soul woman!

I guess it seems callous to post this (upcoming vocalist) now but I was intending to do it anyway:



And whatever did happen to ASC? I loved his ambient jungle stuff but his releases lately have been really not... jungle...

still one of the most prolific producers. he has just been interested in pushing more forward-thinking music @ 170. gotta admit the genre was quite stale for a while. quite a few dnb producers found inspiration outside of it in techno, dubstep, footwork/juke then dabbled in that. some never looked back, some took the new found inspiration and injected a fresh sound into 170.

You say it's not really dance floor, it's not drum & bass, it's not Autonomic—so what is it? Because you definitely have a sound.

That's the thing. It's a huge can of worms because personally I don't feel any attachment or involvement with drum & bass. I don't really listen to it, I don't play it, I don't buy it, I've just got nothing to do with it. It's not that I hate it, it's just not in my interest anymore. I don't feel any affiliation with it at all, which is kind of strange because everyone else seems to lump us in with that. But I think that's because we haven't really got a name for what we are doing. And because of the tempo it kind of gets lumped in with drum & bass.

Why do you stick to that tempo?

There's just so much to be explored at that tempo. If I stop doing it, then who else is going to do it?

*shrug* Who the fuck knows, music is such a personal thing, I just don't get IDM or experimental now. I like it when music is brash and colourful, just a bit intelligent but ASC is mostly too esoteric for me to really get.
 
Anyone getting into Special Request each tune he drops at the moment is fire? Just released his album. It's pretty much a reinvention of the oldskool jungle side nice bit of darkness but strictly to break beat and not so tech. Also Deadmans chest omfg it's like the 90s but bought right up into modern day
