Lol, had to put my money where my mouth was

I guess this will be the thread for either the 1 or 2 other people who are familiar with the stuff to chime in on what's good, otherwise it'll be DNB 101 for anyone who has no clue what jungle/drum&bass is.

I like drum 'n' bass when I'm getting p*ssed.

That reminds me, you posted a link in the 'what are you listening to now' thread awhile back that I never did download (DJ Drifta set). I kept forgetting. It was one of those cases where you never think of it at the right time - in the car, at work, in the shower, eating lunch at Grandma's lol... I just found it (I see it's hip hop, not jungle though) and I'm downloading it now... done. Something to listen to on the way to work. The nice thing is I have a faster internet connection now - still DSL like before but this set took 5 min and stuff this size used to be at least an hour.

Yeah, I'm still listening to that off and on. I think the stuff that impressed me the most was probably the Tribe Called Quest tracks.

As for some DNB sets I was gonna recommend, you still might be able to find it if you do a search at the forums or look under the Tracklisting folder when you get there on http://www.breakbeat.co.uk is Calyx Live @ Pyrotechnic Radio (you have to split it since it's over 80 minutes but it doesn't matter, the first 40 are what I usually listen to anyway) and I don't know if this one is posted but Grooverider live @ Que Club 1999 was pretty sick (if its not there I might be able to send it your way but I'd still like to see what I could do before it came to megaupload). Other than that I really don't know what would be up your ally, I was talking about that Dinn Warde Drumfunk mix, the best way I can describe that one is it's like the last few tracks of 'THeLawPresents - Darker Side of D&B' but its like that through the whole set alongside just a lot of real mellow but eerie jazz and intelligent d&b - may or may not be your thing but if you wanna try it go to the d&b folder at the top and look under the user mixes, its probably on like the 10th or 11th page.

Something I should mention, they were all griping about this at drum&bass arena, someone de-stuck that 'forum mixes' thread, so it may be back on like the 3rd or 4th page, or it may not even be there at all anymore

Hope this works:

Lots of good sets in there - not all my taste but enough to be worth looking through if you know who's who on the tracklisting. This one's definitely twisted up oldskool that's more my flavor, only downside is the bitrate's a little too low for the car stereo:

Dj Snear - Drum & Bass 1997-1999 mix & blend

I can't remember any of the drum & bass I've listened to - the bits of it I listened to, a mate downloaded whole live sets that went on forever.

In all honesty, most of it sounds the same to me. I do listen to an online radio station with D&B when I'm tired of my own music though.
