I want to expand my D'n'B library seeing as its the only thing i seem to listen to consistently and always return too. So post some of your favourite albums please for me to look into!
Have always been into really dark dnb. Maybe it's due to my background in death metal etc, but I've always like evil sounding dnb with really pumped bass. Current (and probably alltime favorites give a few years lol) of the top of my head favorites below... No doubt some prat will come in banging on about certain types of it not conforming to 'Drum n Bass' genre specific shit, but I don't really care, it's all gravy
My ringtone for the last 5(?) years... Epic shit. (Edited it to start at 1:28)

Love Phace, new and old
Love big basslines in DnB. Love making them and nothing but sexy then hearing an epic one in it's bare form
Fucking love Squarepusher. Worked this one out on the guitar and it's a beast for practicing alternate picking lol
'chill' dnb or intelligent dnb, landscape dnb, liquid dnb or whatever the fuck you wanna call it. old shit its where its at. Bukem was a pioneer of the genre
shitty quality on dis one
new
this is kinda what the genre sounds like now, a bit cheesy but still cool
I pretty much change from breakcore a la venetian snares, darkstep a la current value or newer tech itch to the liquid stuff. some examples (and i hope that fucking embed thing works)
liquid:
darkstep/ breakcore:
needless to say that rdj, the jenkinson brothers and benn jordan are the best :-)
drum n bass is a gay scene, its why its dead, no media cares for it, its not street n urban or ghetto any more since 2003, it has no sells, it has no club nights, its not even good enough to support happy hardcore in a uk event
who cares about the 'scene' im at home listening to it and loving it and theres a massive catalogue of tunes from the last 15 or so years that i cant get enough of!
like the rest of the world, 97-2004, and it was in games in movies and tv dramas, dnb became a franchise, with 400,.000 sells aweek, dark dnb/techstep/industrial jungle tekno
then came camp violins in liquid and jump dnb, and london calling every chavs and scum and taking the piss out of modded cars etc and everything that is street n urban to the world and way of life ghettoness, and dnb died and has been nothing but a gay scene since
ok so this is a dnb thread. no-one gives a shit that you dont like it and consider yourself some sort of self-proclaimed ambassador for electronic music. fuck off
im a fucking god, should listen to dnb radio and live sets, all they do is chat my name since 2003, i invented dark dnb before tech itch and dylan and the main scene came along and took over
i got whole hiphop tunes dedicated to me
when vsts came along, and every1 was pissing around with 2step/tekstep/darkstep, i made the formula that stuck
i can happily have a mix on some netstation and call dnb a gay scene, even with 100,000 listeners giving shouts to all the chavs round town parked up outside kebab shop with cellphones plugged into the car stereo, sets of proper hardcore keepin it real n gangsta
