Am I the only one who's not too fussed about that remix? Seems to me like it's just a re-appropriation of the beat into his usual style and that's all, or am I missing something? I'll probably end up buying this anyway but, on the surface, it seems a bit lazy...

It's not bad at all, but it just feels like he could have done a bit more with the remix than this. I dunno, maybe I'm expecting too much. I'm sure it'll go off on a system tho

I see what you're saying, especially when the original is on the flip

I agree the term is a bit washed out but I usually use it in the sense of "this has a strong(er) dub influence."
Definitely don't agree with the part about drum programming or bass sounds tho, someone like Genotype for example makes some super effective tunes using very few elements but both his programming and sound design are top notch.
Same could be said for a lot of people, but I think someone like Dbridge who sounds like dnb but could work in almost any setting, will tell you that being in BC is the main reason why he can sound like it does now.
You know what I mean?
They went through a lot of 'dirt' experimentation which makes it easy to really focus your stuff later. It's not so much about listening to jazz records.
Same thing with Teebee although his stuff isn't as good today as it was.
Everytime someone says musically or deep, when you talk about drum and bass, they are in my book, kind of admitting that they should look for something else.
I understand the dub influence on account of the whole separation and connection with jungle through time and in that it has similar elements and sound though.
Jungle and african music influences are definitely the reason that jungle is more accesible than dnb. And when dnb then tries to be as accesible, it turns pale.
Like rap metal. It's a bit like when my Grandmother thinks some concervative politician is charming or something.
He might very well be?, but that's not what it should be about.
^^ what?
