This cat can make your chest rattle. Sick ass jungle for
the most part, saw him live last year and was blown away.
I reccomend getting some of his stuff to any of you
bassheadz...

Cheers!

Anyway I love Dillinja's stuff. I have liked him less and
less as time has gone on though. I didn't really like
Cybotron at all, but earlier stuff like Armoured D...nobody
is fucking with that stuff :D

"the Angels Fell" is so classic... i first heard it on
Goldie's INCredible sounds mix album... the start of that
second disc (retro), with that song, and terminator, and
manslaughter, and dark angel... so sweet... in fact the
majority of retro is quite sweet... spektrum, not so much,
but it's got it's moments... including the sweet dillinja
remix of Shy FX's Bambaata Back to the Core... Dillinja is
truly massif... i'd love to hear is valve sound system in
action

that is kinda spooky...I have a few fav's from the Cybotron
album, but like you, I liked his earlier 12" releases much
better...
Weapon of Choice, Perfect Match...etc.

If you ever get a chance to see him play live dont miss
out.

The Angels Fell is brilliant. He made nasty agressive stuff
back in the day...then followed suit and started making
lighter more commercial freindly junk.

i thought Valve Sound was pretty cool... but yeah, for the
most part Cybotron wasn't that great... dnb artists aren't
supposed to make albums...

Yeah I read once he wanted to "explore ALL NEW levels in
BASS"...therefore he studied up with engineers and studio
headz and came up with the VALVE SS

Oh to hear that in action....

...but no, instead i live in Canada and i've never even been
to a drum n bass night in my life (i'd probably hear mostly
shitty american crap anyway)... the worst was when Doc Scott
came through months before my 18th birthday...

dillinja is the shit. even though a bit of his stuff is
formulamatic, it always gets the asses shaking.

there's a dillinja track on a v-records triple vinyl set i
bought in 1999 called "unexplored terrain".. 'tis good, like
a lot of his stuff that I've heard.
it is pretty formulaic after a while.. but it's drum&bass,
and it's designed to be mixed on a dancefloor. a lot off
d&b-heads don't like to be challenged too much, it might
distract them from their scowling.
as for the valve system, that's just techies gone mad. an
interesting experiment in bass, but probably quite damaging
in the long run.

not heard cybotron.. but, as a rule, most d&b longplayers
aren't up to much.
