^ But if there jump up i dont want them. I got friction fabio, and frictions is pretty hardcore and techy, i love it.

I've never heard those 2 sets you're talking about. I know what you mean about this nu jump up. Maybe, just maybe I wouldn't mind if they're being used as a filler once or twice a set but anything more than that makes the mix worthless imo. I don't even care if I'm at a club and everyone is getting down. Once it starts getting clowny I get my bounce on, it's like cyyya!:|

The tune terminator was done by Rufige Kru on metalheadz, 1 of their best releases, and Terroist-Renegade was a classic, still rinsed in raves these days, pure dirty rolling basslines, awesome.....

Portillo-That era was the Hardcore/Jungle crossover period, 92-93 style (my favourite era), i know in the US they call modern day Ragga D+B, Jungle, different places call it different things, if you want original recordings from way back in the day go to jungletekno.co.uk and they have tonnes of mixes from way back to '89 i think, all recorded at British Raves when the scene was at its full hilt, the recording quality varies between each 1 though

If you want more info, PM me or look at my myspace...myspace.com/djbigbuz......some info up there on radio shows i do and gonna repost my 92-96 mix within next couple of days, which i think you will find is more to your liking

Awesome list of tracks there buddy, of which most are in my collection and im sure will be on the mixes

And drumandbass420 for the jump-up, it just don't cut it no more, even if its being used for fillers, if you're ever in london get down to renegade hardware at the end nightclub, unreal, and your ears will be ringing for days. unreal sound system

Peace

I was in London years ago but I was 16 and my father had our hotel room on lockdown. He knew I was in the mecca and sadly I didn't get to experience the nightlife(crys). I did spend most of my time at Black Market. I really wanted to sneak out but that would have been a challenge and I didn't know how lax the clubs were about me not having ID and being a 16 yr old American girl.:(

One day I will come back, one day...
:(
 
If your ears are ringing afterwards, the sound system is rubbish or it's being rinsed.

There is NO need for any sound system to ruin your ears for days after the event, it generally means some nob on the decks has been turning it up into the red.
 
Does anyone know where in australia to get DNB cd's, not records. JB-HIFI is pretty much the biggest cd retailer but they have pretty much jack shit in DNB.

I remember one night years ago in Philly Goldie was redlining like a motherfucker, it was a complete mess.:! I think he was even doing that at again World of DnB in Miami one year but then again I was in the other room dancing to liquid tunes all nights. Fuck that clownstep in the mainroom
 
Just spent half the evening/night playing the shit out of Logistics, High Contrast, Black Sun Empire, Noisia, Marcus Intalex n London Elektricity. Can't say there's much room for negative thought, in my mind, when it comes to DnB! :D

That said, it can be overplayed, and i've NEVER understood the appeal of Andy C/Roni Size/Goldie/Shy FX - listenable, but so overrated!

Oh, this is a set I uploaded recently, cos the d/l link went down. Enjoy! It's seriously worth a listen...

Not neccessarily, if you see the size of the club and see how loud it honestly is, the club is tiny, i'd say max capacity in the main room is 5-600, and that is cramming eveyone in, and the system is Eskimo last time i heard (no pun intended), which as you should know is top spec, hinestly if you visited the place you'd understand, its crystal clear pure treble and bass.

I understand how a sound system should sound, i have played on may excellent and many shite systems over the years, and still do on most pirate stations these days, as there aint no point in putting quality equipment in somewhere that is high on the DTI's raiding list.

Drumandbass420-How very unfortunate you didn't get to experience the London rave scene, Blackmarket is a pretty cool place, aint been there myself since bout 99 but im sure it hasn't changed much in all those years

Peace

It was the worst torture I EVER had to go through. BUT I really enjoyed London otherwise. I had a lot of fun even though I was with my dad and he did not let me do what I really wanted to do. It's a great city, I'd love to go back.:D
 
Used to be well into D&B, then it got too repetitive. Saw Roni Size Reprazent live a few weeks back and I'm back into it now, especially jungle.

But I have to say, dub step > D&B
 
it's alllllllll repetitive. All of dance music in general. Dubstep is ok..it just seems like it never goes anywhere. I'm waiting and waiting but still nothing. I get bored very easy. The only thing I've never got bored of is good dnb.

Neuro/tech and liquid/atmospheric dnb is where I like it..

Hey ive downloaded a couple from jungletekno, but just at random. Any ones you recommend? Should i download them from "darkside rips" or "mixes"?
 
Depends what kind of stuff you want mate, DJ Crystal sets from weekdns rush were pretty good, AWOL sets in general are pretty shit hot, some of the sets recorded from some of the orginal pirate stations that were knocking around at the time are generally good, bit of a pick and choose list really, some are brilliant, others are poor quality, but some genuine belters in there
 
Thanks. I want hardcore jungle techno, ragga jungle and some laid back stuff too.
