is what drum and bass sounds like at the moment. Any jungleheads on here who are still producing anything? Planning on tying up a few tracks myself over the next month or two |

ahahaha... But then again, I always did like the ultra simplistic dnb beat. The best dnb related shiz I've heard over the past few years is Macc and dgoHn... also liking post post post post post dubstep half tempo dnb drumstep shit, like |

And overall, I still miss old school photek. |

I also enjoy fatboy slim's take on dnb, with the big beat bd on every other beat, etc. Basically- nowadayz, people just ain't got the groove. Like WHAT THE FUCK----- Listen to Ni Ten Ichi Ryu, muthafuck--- that shit pops so damn hard. |

Macc and dgoHn are fucking superb, and a handful of other Exegene artists definitely still have the torch lit. I had a gorgeous time out camping up in the mountains a few months back, sprinting in the moonlight under low boughs of trees, attached at the hip by a headphone splitter to one of my best mates, with 7C 1020 (and then XMD 5a) blaring into our drunken ears. I've never gotten into Photek for serious; I like a handful of tracks such as C Note and The Third Sequence, is there anything particular you'd recommend, LP-wise? |

Photek is all about Ni Ten Ichi Ryu on endless repeat, as you slice through your enemies in the snow in slow motion. Early shit like Modus Operandi, Form & Function, and Solaris- Photek was really on some path of expression, cuz it's not like the dyude just discovered dnb and put that beat in everything. He was trying to express a mood and styles varied (from dnb to house), but still with that Photek boooowmb pop shuffle stylez. Fuckin' nutz. Here's some Photek PHUQING BOWMB: duuuuude.....: |

Modus Operandi it is. Minotaur is one off there that I like q. well. Have you heard any of the Exegene releases? one is pretty nifty |

DnB is like Dubstep. The early stuff is staggeringly good, but it lost its direction and 95%+ of the contemporary stuff is absolute junk. |

Oh and Netsky's (the VIP, not the standard) of "Everyday" by Rusko is some of the 5% I like of the new stuff. On paper, I should hate this track: Rusko, all about the midrange on the bassline, high-energy, jump up style composition and silly pitched up hardcore-style vocals. I don't though, I love it. I reckon Freqy would like the relentless optimism of the track too. |

Definitely not my bag, but we all have our vice tracks that slip in under the radar. Have you got anything recent you've been working on that you mentioned in another thread that you can share? |

These are probably the two most recent tracks that are online: |

I like dem pads in City Life, I'm always intrigued to hear how other Reason users put the synth modules through their paces. Also interesting to see you have a track up with Monoid, I wouldn't have expected collaboration would be on the cards for him |

I've got Rob Papen Predator for Reason now, which is great as a "do everything" synth. It's probably the nearest to an Access Virus that I've come across in software (bar the DSP card software version Access made years ago). Subtractor is alright, but basic, unless you add a long/complex FX chain (that track "tibbar's birthday snooze" is all, even the snoring, just one combinator with a hellaciously complext FX chain on the back of it). Malstrom is nice at what it does, but very unique sounding and not that versatile. Thor was a step in the right direction, but a bit of a pig to program. That track is years old, but one of my favourites. We did it in floops, he posted the start of a track and I extended it into a full track. 90%+ of the sounds in it are his doing. Do you fancy doing a collaborative Reason track? What version are you running? |

Yeah Thor is the one I get the most varied sound out of, and the Malstrom is probably the most straightforward and also digital sounding synth for lead patches, though it can be used for some nice quiet arps or drawn-out white noise and ambient type sounds too. A collab would definitely be fun, I'm using version 4 myself. I'll send you an .rns file rather than a shite SoundCloud compress if your email on here is still one that you use. |
