fierydesire Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 Who can you recommend or say is one of the best djs for drum n bass beats. Since I don't know music genre's very well, this may be the wrong phrasing. I'm looking for ppl along the lines of Aphrodite....I like this type of music and am searching for tracks, records, whatever...Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quoth Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 For a beginner...you will definitely like Dieselboy(Damian Higgins).Personally..i think everyone of his albums are supremely mixed well...as far as recommendations definitely go with these Dieselboy albums..611 DJ mix series Volume 1Sixth Session97 OctaneA soldier's storySystem UpgradeYou can preview some of the mentioned albums here. check it But the world os drum-n-bass is so vast and its an endless mindfuck of good talent. We didnt even get to UK Drum-n-Bass yet...that's another story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimk29 Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 Why do none of you show any love to Freaky Flow... straight from Toronto and one of the best jungle DJ's out there right now... in my humble opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xpander Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 The DJ would depend on what kind of DnB you're looking for? I'm not too good at this so I'll give some nice recommendations...For the more "atmospheric" side of DnB... Try these guys for anywhere from soulful to light or even somewhat (dare we say it) melodic DnB...LTJ BukemDBBlameGrooveriderAnd then there're the harder side of DnB...Techstep, Darkstep (annoying sub-genres... ). But try these guys for anything fierce...DieselboyDaraDillinjaGoldieSageStormTimecodeOdiJ. MajikAnd then there's alsoDJ ZincMarcus Intalex (man that was a good show)A-sidesStakka + SkynetInk + Dylan + LoxyFabioDecoder + SubstanceDJ RapKenny KenShy FXDJ DieRoni SizeSUVDJ KrustDJ MarkyDJ CrazeYeah, I know this is a somewhat off list. But it's a good one to start with...I think... Hope it helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
