Drum & Bass Megathread Part II v. What's an Amen Break?

Solid tune! Yea, neuro is the dominant form out there in central/eastern europe (where chris su from, i dont know where SoM from). It's a pretty cool dynamic how liquid is boss in western europe (west from vienna) but once you cross the border into hungary neuro rules all the way to mongolia. I'm not really into most neurofunk either but i like keeping up on it because the producers themselves are on a whole other level from any other dnb producers in terms of technical ability and are awesome at crossing genres. Place 2B & Paimon, for example, couldn't stand their neurofunk but lately they've been dabbling in electro/neurohop under the Teddy Killerz name and it's pretty insane. If you ever need to wake the dead..

 
^ yea i always knew that sound was bigger in eastern europe. didn't know chris su was from those parts, so that previous track makes sense now heh, was wondering why he was going that route.

tho its not my style i can still, like you, appreciate the technical know how and ability. it's not something i always look for in music but i do like to listen to tunes sometimes just to hear the way they manipulate sounds.

browsing through that mix, i hear a multitude of styles tho it sounds cohesive, like to listen to it just to hear how styles merge/bend, etc, being a fan can hear the different influences and how producers put their spin on the sound...

i'd like to recommend this record for fans of ol' jungle, heavy on the break manipulations with those classic jamaican vocal samples.



Double EP of jungle nostalgia from former garage and dubstep maestro.
Sully returns to Keysound next month with a double EP steeped in what the label deems the “classic break-based rollage ‘n’ choppage” that UK producer sought out at the turn of the millennium.
“The inspiration for these tunes essentially goes back to the free parties I spent weekends chasing in the early ‘00s,” says Jack Stevens. “Youthful optimism put an almost spiritual spin on what were sketchy, chaotic, DIY happenings. Vision blurring subs felt like epiphanies. The EP’s raw, chopped up sounds reflect that feeling: thrown together, reckless, but elevating with it.”
 
love the chords in that sully tune. was just listening to some fracture but at a different pace from that tune above



feeling this one too, about to cop both from Juno

 
was planning to cop the new Technimatic album but after a listen i just settled on this one tune

 
On mobile so I can't really post a link but check out the new noisia EP for some good, dirty neuro.

The best track imo is "shaking hands"

"Asteroids" is good too but being overplayed and I already burned out on it.
 
^ o nice, and a polish producer as well. i'm always interested to hear sounds coming from poland. and i'm surprised no one from poland has really made it "big" producing any genre of electronic music if im not mistaken ? especially since berlin isn't that from away.
 
i think it's just a question of being able to make a living. poland is a big country with one of the highest rates of emigration in europe so there's probably not much opportunity to do anything, and the only directions worth going from there are west or south.
 
I got to spin fire tonight!!!
I did it outside to some Jonny L.
Jonny L is the shit and my fire poi game is becoming so much better.
Looked like I was summoning Satan.
I want to try to spin for people at nightmare festival.

yeh man LSB is the phatness, i always enjoy listening to your posts too %)

here's some NAAAIIIIBUUUUUU to soften the end of summer! Bonus, download link in the YT sidebar cop that shit fo freeeee :D mmm FLAC my preciousssss <3

 
yea! intelligent manners is hit n miss for me, almost bought the Miracles EP but the weak use of the Ror-Shak vox in Everyday Is The Same soured me on it. Seriously thinking about copping the latest Fracus & Darwin album so i can put on some pink shades, sniff some K and go back in time for a bit. Honestly never was that into hardcore but I've still bought almost every Fracus & Darwin release that winds up in the DNB section of the catalogue lately (only five percent of which is actually DNB, laff).

on the flipside i think hardcore is crossing over into dnb too, fuckin love it

Hardcore crossing over into DnB? DnB is a subset of hardcore, it came from hardcore, that sound has always been there. Adam F is old, he knows.
