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: Limewax

Jonjonjohny, pendulum is degradation of dnb. Guitar music became obsolete in the early 1980s.

This isn't a subgenre of electro. WTF are you talking about? Electro refers to electrofunk or, more recently, electro house...DnB doesn't have anything to do with either of those.

I don't get what separates this from dubstep or any other electro subgenre

It's kinda wrong that dubstep displaces dnb in latest releases of many dnb artists, there are enough dubstep artists already, I think

Telemetrik, SPL, Evol Intent, Dieselboy, Ewun. But you're right, americunts suck. Your charts prove it.

Are there really any American dnb producers of note? The only one that comes to mind, and I didn't do an exhaustive scan or anything, is Hive. Most or all electronic scenes are centered in Europe, and that seems to be especially true for dnb. If it doesn't tend to have vocals in it, Americans don't want to hear it.

Those saying Pendulum doesn't belong in the dnb tag must only be familiar with their post-Hold Your Colour material. Before 2007 or so they were making legitimate dnb tracks and remixes. (Just give their remix of Concord Dawn - Tonite a listen.) That stuff deserves to be here.

I love these kids that want to be "underground" and bash pendulum. Wow, you are sooo underground. Now gtfo. Immunize is one of their best songs. Probably because of Liam Howlett, but who cares.
