Morning world,
Particularly each morning before i get to work, its almost a must for me to fiddle with the net and read some news. What's a must? i NEED MUSIC vibrating my ear drums for real. I usually start my day with some instrumentals since it would somewhat gets me more active. Drum n Bass has never been any part of my morning routine. I mean, I would not wanna shift my tempo to something really fast and hard to follow. Perhaps them morning blues...
Still wondering what's DnB? Cited from Wikipedia, Drum and bass is a type of electronic dance music which emerged in the mid 1990s. The genre is characterized by fast breakbeats (typically between 160–190 bpm, occasional variation is noted in older compositions), with heavy bass, sub-bass lines, and occasional infra-bass lines. Drum and bass began as an offshoot of the United Kingdom rave scene of the very early 1990s. Read more here
Recently, i partied hard a local club called Innocence in Ciwalk, Bandung. I seldom get into drum n bass parties coz I have always made it a point that this should be my escapade from my music since its a contra to what I work with. DJ Scratchy proved me wrong the other night when he introduced me to various sounds of DNB that has emerged in the Indonesian drum n bass parties. Two years back i was listening drum n bass which were relatively electronic-ish.. today I'm listening pop and traditional song being repelled in... My point is, i got lifted by the music.. I was HIGH!
What brings me to this post is Rusko.Honestly i just got to know his music and I'm being and addict. The atmosphere was wicked when i heard "Cockney Thug" and it has broken my morning routine... I'm playing it purposely loud wake people up! Listen it here and perhaps BUY em! This song has the dub feel with thick British accent. After all his an English lad.
Now I'm bumping to loads of DnB artists such as Skream, Benja, Pendulum n such. The Rebel Scum has been surprising me with their DnB mixes in their underground hip hop mixtapes. The only one i know in Malaysia
Id love to hear more of this kind of music from Malaysian artists from now. Perhaps I would wanna work on DnB mixes for my next project??
