I don't know anything about it, but I've heard some of this stuff at the bars and it turns my crank. Any suggestions as to albums/groups/tunes I should check out? Thank ye kindly.

I don't personally listen to DnB but I have dj friends who do. I'll try to get ahold of them.

Also, if you have iTunes, they have a DnB online radio station. Check it out!

Hey! Great suggestion, Perfessor. I forgot all about the iTunes radio "tooner". That thing's got hundreds of stations!

Sure would appreciate it if you'd pass on some pointers from your friends. All my friends are boring old CHOM listeners. Buncha friggin dinosaurs.

D&B, i've listened to LOTS of it, but not intentionally. At first I hated it because I'm not into that stuff, but it actually grew on me. I didn't find it as annoying after a while. Anyway I had to listen to it alot because we had dj's a few times a week in the nightclub where i used to work, and I'd be forced to endure D&B dj's from 8pm to 3am about two or three times a week. The music got less annoying to me after a while, and I actually was able to enjoy some of it. The kinds of people those nights would draw however, remained just as annoying.

LTJ Bukem is a good person to start with, I really like his work and there is lots of it out there.

My brother listens to a ton of this stuff. Heres a list to check out.
DJ Dara
Deisel Boy
Dogs on Acid
I'll come up with some more later.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. So far I've managed to "acquire" a couple of tunes from LTJ's Journey Inwards, and I like. Groovy rhythms. Sounds a lot like straight jazz though.

Let's go see what new gifts have landed in the Incoming folder.

Say... you wouldn't be trying to insinuate anything there, wouldja THD?

it would mostly be a crowd of four hundred 18-year-olds on ecstacy demanding things from me.

You wont be able to find most of this stuff on Kazaa or whatever. Soulseek works great for non-mainstream stuff.

If you want me to send you tracks or sets, PM me and we can arrange somthing. I have some real good stuff you may want to hear.

Thanks a bunch, Rustblade! Believe it or not, I'm finding most of the *** artists you mentioned on WinMx tonight (NecessaryEvil network). Seems to be a good night for scooping up new tunes Bad Company's another matter altogether... all I'm finding is millions of copies of "Feeling Like Making Love" and other such retro-lameness. Could you post some album or track names to help me find my way to the good stuff?

Thank you for your offer. I might just take you up on it, but first let me search around for another couple of days.

Try searching for "Bad Company UK" instead.

Or "Bad Company Sour", "Bad Company Boss"

Sour and Boss are two mp3 relase groups. Sometimes it works.

LTJ Bukem
there is nothing like driving home on highway about 3am listening to him. He is the king of Acid Jazz D&B fusion. But most of D&B annoys the hell out of me. I can compose the same thing in 5 minutes.
