Drum and bass

Drum and bass (commonly abbreviated to d&b, DnB, dnb, d’n’b, drum n bass, drum & bass) is a type of electronic dance music which emerged in the mid 1990s. The genre is characterised by fast tempo broken beats (generally between 160–180 beats per minute, but also having occasional differences in some older compositions), with heavy sub basslines. The genre roots itself in the UK rave scene, and has spread around the world, notably to Europe, Russia, and the USA. Read more…|Edit this Artist photo: John B

Can anyone recommend some underground DnB artists or albums played in forest raves rather than in clubs?

Когда я жил в общаге, мой сосед был фанатом драма. С тех пор этот жанр для меня синоним слов "говно" и "пидарас".

Drum & bass only sounds right pronounced by a woman with a thick Jamaican accent.

The question is why isn't Spor on top artists :/

You're in for quite a ride. I suggest reading the Wikipedia page if you're looking for some background material for the genre.There are so many artists I'd recommend, so instead of writing a novel, I'll suggest listening to some of the top artists tagged as drum and bass. It all boils down to what type of music you like too. Drum and bass can be anything from dark and dirty to light and melodic. For darker and more aggressive dnb, I suggest Noisia, Black Sun Empire, Spor and Apex's earlier stuff. For more chill stuff, Netsky, B-Complex, Logistics and Sigma. Also, dubstep and drum and bass are two completely different genres. Jungle heavily influenced what is known as drum and bass today, while dubstep took influence from uk garage and 2-step.
