Anyone into Jungle/Breakbeat?

[Lenny]

Can anyone recommend me some good DJ's? I've sorta been into it for a couple of years now, but I've been listening to it more and more lately, and it's become a close second to Ska as my favorite music genre (rock it rude boys!)

I'm currently listening to:
DJ Kentaro
DJ Hype
Squarepusher
ShyFX
UK Apachi
Andy C
Analog (a Jungle influenced alternative band)
Caliber and High Contrast
Noisia
Pendulum
T-Power
and Goldie

So, anyone got some recommendations for me? I like the faster more upbeat stuff, but the downtempo style is cool too.

Hell yeah. I spin, write/produce all kinds of electro. Love the D&B and dub-step.


AK1200 (you will def like AK if you like it gritty!)
Pendulum
LTJ Bukem (great jazz-n-bass writer)
Aphrodite (fairly mainstream)
DJ Hype
Adam F (drops bombs)
etc.........

Also really like breaks and chill a lot. Lots of good stuff coming out of Florida. :)


Really looking forward to seeing Pendulum at Winter Music Conference next weekend! Gonna be a dancing fool.

What kind of "chill" are we talking about? Like "Massive Attack" trip-hop chill, or "MK Ultra" downtempo jungle chill?

Oh, and I've heard a few by AK. I'll check out the others listed.

Also, I just downloaded a Roni Size dubplate that is WICKED! I'll have to look around for the title of it, but it's a pretty kick-a set.

Roni Size has a lot of really good stuff.

As far as chill, I didnt necessarily mean d&b, just down tempo stuff. Every heard of Robert Miles? How about Talvin Singh?

I'll listen to some of the stuff u listed to see what kind of breaks yer lookin for. But for now some DJ's im pretty sure count as breakbeat:

DJ Kurvy
DJ Burnz
DJ Greddy
DJ Heartbreakk
DJ Tinman
Mr Pup

Dunno how easy it'll be to find some of these tho.

Check out this link http://www.braindamageradio.com/Hardcore.htm some good free sets to download on there of all types of things.

Roni Size's latest album is absolutely brilliant. More of an old school drum n bass flavour, but very upbeat. PM me for more info
