In Silico... Disappointing
Review of In Silico - Pendulum by
thedunn1
Advantages: Not many
Disadvantages: I'm now £9 poorer
...is the drum n bass in this album? Unless I'm mistaken, one of the tracks on here is guitar based and could be classed as a rock song. Nothing against rock but if I wanted a rock song I'd have bought one. Annoying synthesizer most of the way through, half hearted feeble bass line when there is one at all. Average easy going album, just don't buy this album if you are a hard drum n bass fan. You will be very disappointed. It is a shame that Pendulum ...

'Slam' makes the album
Review of Hold Your Colour - Pendulum by
Katherine17
Advantages: faster upbeat songs like 'fasten you seatbeat'
Disadvantages: ' Plastic World' - just doesnt do it for me
...song ' Hold your Colour' it just doesnt have the same effect on me as the faster ones does.
The same can be said for 'Plastic World' I just find that song a bit boring to be honest.
Good value for money and Pendulum and Drum&Bass fans won't be dissapointed ...

Ambient drum and bass taken to new levels
Review of New Forms - Roni Size/Reprazent by
cash40
Advantages: Original, beautiful, creative, imaginative
Disadvantages: Still a little to hard or a little too soft for extremists
New Forms is one of the only drum’n’bass albums to make it into mainstream acceptance. Roni has managed to make music that appeals to fans of normal types of dance music without alienating true drum’n’bass fans.
This feat cannot be overlooked as the two styles of music, although similar to an extent, are very hard to mix. True drum’n’bass as I would call it is some of the most intense music you will ever hear, with ultra-fierce drums and stomach ... ...masses has always ended up with watered down pap that is too weak and lame for the drum’n’bass massive, and still not dancey enough for the mainstream that it was intended for. (and no, I can’t think of any better descriptions than dancey!)
The hybridisation of drum’n’bass and ‘normal’ music resulted in Ambient drum’n’bass, which is sort of like drum’n’bass without the intensity, and sort of like dance without the beat. This leaves it as quite ...

Drum & Bass mix cd
Review of Hospital Mix Vol.1 (Drum & Bass Selection) - Various Artists by
lucydowle19
Advantages: Quality Tunes!
Disadvantages: Too hecktick for your parents!
This compilation is absolutly out of this world, even after these few years, im still not bored of it and could listen to over and over again. If you dont own this cd, you need to go buy it. It's the type of cd you can just put on whilst relaxing in your room, chilling with your friends or even hosting a party. The smooth beats and uptempo sound really gets you listening and hungry for more. My friend first had this cd and she put it on one night ... ...have so got to get this cd" So with my hard begged pocket money i went out and bought it. Love it, such a quality purchase, id advise you all to go get it. I am sure you could pick up a cheap copy from Ebay so have a browse and see what you can find. Happy hunting! x ...
