not really. if you ask me, it's totally fucked up. this guy is spending four years in jail in dubai all because of a little weed. the drug laws in the united arab emirates are incredibly harsh. here's the article from cnn that circulated in february of this year. it's no joke.

your right it isn't funny but it is inexcusable to not be knowledgeable of the laws of the country you are traveling to or the contents of your luggage! Of course Dubai's drugs laws are madness but hey its their country, they can govern it how they want.

There was a story (dunno if its in that link) about a business man being locked up because he had a few poppy seeds on his attire from a bagel he ate at the airport prior to his flight....now that is fucked.
 
^ that poppy seed shirt was mentioned briefly in the article as well, and i agree with you that it's ridiculous. i also agree that grooverider probably should have known better. dubai (and the uae in general) are notoriously strict about their drug law enforcement. it was definitely an unwise move on his part. even so, i can't imagine spending 4 years in jail for a couple of measly grams of weed. if it were me, i might have even forgotten that such a negligible amount was in my bags. it just seems like a terribly disproportionate punishment for that "crime". my personal stance on drug wars aside, i just think grooverider deserves a bit more respect from the people who appreciate his work. i mean, we're dropping his name here as a quality name in dnb, as someone we'd recommend to a friend. it's kinda dick to then point and laugh in the same breath, especially on a board where you'd expect people to be a little more compassionate about the subject of drug-related incarceration.

at any rate, it's probably best to get back on topic. sorry for the soapbox bit, and please continue to recommend bangin' dnb tunes for the needy ;)

WOW. this shit is like... life-altering music!! :D :D commix + logistics = even better 8o i really do like that liquid stuff though.. stuff like bukem, kemal and concord dawn i wouldn't really listen to again because the intensity entirely overpowers the track and all sense of melodic depth is lost. kno what i mean?

i heard about that grooverider shit... shitty news, but why go to dubai!?
 
for "mind bending", I usually go with Venetian Snares (I'm likely their #1 fanboy 'round here), but I'll warn you that it's likely nothing like the other stuff you note enjoying.

ebola
 
Venetian Snares is absolutely top-notch, no question. Certainly different from the DNB you're hearing now though. Also check out some Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, The Flashbulb, etc.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Evol Intent.
 
have to check out this venetian squares, the current style of dnb is too pumped up, dont like most dubstep

It's Venetian Snares, and his music often is more intense and intricate than anything else you have heard.
 
I recommend some Jungle sound gold by pendulum, beautiful mix,
Check out Naota3k.com in the music section.

Flashbulb is my all time love

I like their (Commix and Logistics) collabs a lot too. Liquid is one of my favs besides tech/neuro. I can't choose which one I like the most tho. I loove Kemal. I just wished he still made tunes. In fact, what got me into DnB was Bad Company, Kemal, Stakka& Skynet, Decoder, Konflict, Trace. I miss that era:(

I REALLY REALLY liked tech from that time, and I still do<3


May I suggest..

Nu:Tone (Logistics brother)

Alix Perez makes EXTREAMLY good DnB (imo) and he is a new artist. Lots of his tunes sound very Calibre-ish. I suggested him before.

Origin Unknown is good dnb. They don't make tunes anymore. I really like/liked a lot of their stuff too (esp the older stuff on RAM).

some Noisia is good, it's a little hard tho. Their alias as Drifter is pretty good, they make liquid under this alias.
