21st Century Drum 'n' Bass Vol.3 - Red One/Chris Industry/Killa B

Advantages: Great Tunes
Disadvantages: None

...Fantastic album that NEEDS to be owned by anyone interested in drum n bass. If you like original Roni Size, Influx UK, Krust or Shy FX material, you will love this. This is where it all started, the true beggining of Jungle and Drum n Bass. Nicky B provides a great incite into the deep sounds of drum n bass. From jungle classics, Nicky B showcasses the rich and ragged roots of North London nightlife. The boss rinses beats after beats of pure bass, switching his amen samples with huge snare drum hits, all showered down with some ambience and filtered strings. Quite simply this is a masterpiece, meant for the speakers instead of the London gallerys! BUY THIS NOW!... Read review

Advantages: GREAT MUSIC
Disadvantages: NONE

...so many drum & bass, cds so little time Pick this one . nicely selected, well programmed, and a good overview of the genre, This takes you from the roots of D+B to its present day dizzy heights, this well priced two-disc set is what you need to get a party going. from Goldie and Roni Size to the Rebel MC with a little bit of LTJ Bukem to smooth things out in a smooth fashion. This cd is a really good two hour history lesson and is a great reminder of just how great the UK is at inventing new styles of music .Spread over two cds this is a great way to kill a few hours getting lost in fast beats and bottomless bass lines ,great for motorway driving !!!...

Advantages: Alot of good songs
Disadvantages: Not for everyone all the time

...I would only recommend to buy this CD, as well as others of the same type, if you truly like drum n bass and if you truly are a bass-head. Fair enough some people just like to listen to Drum n Bass and Jungle at parties, clubs or raves whatever. Overall i think the CD is good as is Jungle Sound one, also mixed by Pendulum and MCMC. There are a good few mixes on the CD that don't follow the original versions of the songs, this could be seen as a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how much you like the song in the first place. Personally i think its a good thing, because like with most remixes you can get a bit of variation on the songs that you love. There are a few Pendulum songs on here, and anyone who likes drum n bass likes Pendulum. Voyager, Masochist and Another Planet included. There are also a few tracks by another... Read review
