The crazy jazz intro is what hooked me like an angler and a fish. That transition alone to the smooth drumline still makes my legs quiver to this day;I have never heard anything quite like that.
Favorite track: Out Of This World.

about
Plug yourselves in, 'cos the Elektricitians are back! Two years have flown by since the critically acclaimed Billion $ Gravy LP dropped, and the band embarked on their first round of Live shows.
The bar has been raised once more on with this new collection of Drum & Bass Power Ballads; Tony Colman's unique D&B sound rises to the challenge with radio friendly vocal bangers sitting perfectly alongside some next level dancefloor action…
Vocal duties on the LP fall to Jazz Legend and 2 x BBC Jazz awards winner Liane Carroll alongside south coast home boy MC Wrec, while Landslide, Andy Waterworth and The Jungle Drummer provide a devastating breakbeat backbone.
The first single The Strangest Secret In The World has been a massive hit with Radio one, with plays from not only Annie Mac and Zane Lowe, but also Steve Lamacq. Single number two, Hanging Rock is aimed squarely at the dancefloor and heralds the release of the LP like a moody prog rock fanfare.
There is still no-one else quite like London Elektricity Live, with absolutely NO playback, NO click track, and NO computers on stage - just top quality musicians and vocalists rolling out the most high voltage soulful, dancefloor D&B you've ever heard! The NEW album - POWER BALLADS is truly out of this world.

An hour of light and atmospheric Drum&Bass! This album is a nice contrast to the more heavy/gritty style of DnB that is prevalent on the scene. Great job Netsky!

Wow, I've forgotten how much I love Jungle. There is so much good music on this record.

Drum&BassArena 20 Years

Fine for home listening, but DJs be warned. This set is a mixed bag in terms of sound quality. Nasty Habits sounds like a vinyl rip (and not a good one). 'Reach out' is also poor quality. It's not just the age of the tunes - I download stuff from zinc and metalheadz and it sounds great (you can get great quality downloads of old jungle tracks when it's done the right way). This is varied - some sound amazing and others aren't good enough to have decent mix with - muddy and unclear.

The debut full-length from UK producer Partical pairs minimal funk bliss with peak-BPM drum & bass grooves.

A mind-melding odyssey through drum & bass with a surrealist twist.

The opening to I Don't Wanna Wake Up hits hard every time. The quiet anticipation? The build up? The drop about a minute in? Chef's kiss!
