I have listend to a lot of DJ fresh over the years from singles to remixes and vs, and he never fails to deliver good music very catchy music too.
Collaborating with many talented Djs and singers producing a lot of great tracks.
He uploaded this to his YouTube channel yesterday his new track DJ Fresh ft. Dizzee Rascal - The Power.
Used to listen to a lot of Dizzee Rascal, not so much any more, I guess this is a clubbing/summer tune its not that great at the minute might grow on me as I undoubtedly hear it all summer ;D
YouTube Channel YouTube DJFresh
Bachelors Of Science have some great music although I don't listen to a lot of their music the tracks I do listen to are amazing, I only have some old tracks of theirs well guess this is my time to get some fresh Bachelors Of Science music in my life!
Although I do listen to their YouTube channel from time to time check it out see what you think!
This being one of my favourite 1hour mix to listen to By Bachelors Of Science
(featured in my post Playlists Pt.2)
Future Prophecies were one of the first few DJs I got introduced to tracks like Final Fantasy, September, Plastic Dreams, Rage and Dreadlock, Black Dragon, 417 and many more all still up there with my favourite tunes. September + Plastic Dreams being my favourite two out of the 2.5 hours of Future Prophecies tracks on my iTunes still listen to them regularly.
I probably need to expand my collection (get full albums) still not looked around much I was more than happy with the music I had of theirs (still am) listened to some on YouTube but that's about it.
Any recommendations to listen to please let me know :)
Just searched through my music turns out I didn't have many of my sub focus tunes loaded into my iTunes!
I have been missing out! Various 30min-1hour Vs and 2hour Radio1 Essential mix hiding away in my external hard drive after I formatted a while ago. I had about 4 Sub focus tracks loaded overall
It's nice to listen to music that you haven't listened to in a while.
I discovered Netsky through youtube about a year and a half ago or so and it was "Netsky - Your way"
the first track of his i heard and loved it, still love it now and many other of his tracks.
His beats are amazing hope you enjoy!
Hope you enjoy, tell me what you think leave a comment.
I listen to High Contrast a lot he is a very good DJ with a very differing style a lot of very nice songs and remixes with a lot of upbeat funky style tracks with an ambient feel about them.
I have heard many Stan SB tracks over time, he puts a nice upbeat twist on most of his music and his vocals really suit his music style. His tracks just make me want to listen to more.
He puts out a lot of previews on soundcloud in different variety's of music mostly drum and bass and dubstep which often leaves people begging for more.
Today I'm going to share some popular and recent-ish dnb that's often on the radio and in the charts, its always nice to see some dnb in the charts or hear it on the radio in my opinion :) definitely needs more!
Some great songs hope you enjoy!

I also found this dnb/music making software which is about £30/$45
would be nice to try if i had the money to spend on it too see what magic i could create! hahaha
I don't have a big jungle collection although I do enjoy it but there is so many different sub-categories of jungle, some are just normal dnb to me and some are very strong reggae beats.
Any suggestions of who to listen to would be great not listened to much jungle recently would like some new tracks.
alllllllllllllright here's some dnb some the jungle I listen to as always, enjoy.
Shy FX - Feelings is probably may favourite out of those
Tell me what you think!

Welcome to the dark side
As you may of noticed I don't listen to a lot of genres usually liquidy type dnb but I listen to some of Enduser, Evol Intent, Noisia and others on my iTunes. Most of the time I just let it play and I have no idea what most of the songs are called I like are called because i enjoy a lot of it same with most of my time spent listening I just tend to hide the window and off I go.
There are tons of artists I have yet to discover just because I listen to my playlists and YouTube playlists, I don't look into new artists that much only the songs I've listened to for years and always gone back to them.
It's kind of sad I'm missing out on a lot of good music but I tend to stick with the ones I'm more familiar with.
With that said feel free to recommend any artists you're into :)
So here's a look into the darker side of dnb.
Ill start off with Evol Intent no idea what some of the genres are but they make some insane tunes and some great ones also some trippy as hell tunes ill add some here and dubstep now I think
Evol Intent
Tripppyyy i think its some sort of Electronica/dnb
2nd is another crazy one
3rd is apparently Hardcore/Drum 'n Bass/Darkstep ? lol... if you're into that kinda thing
Not into these as they are completely insane songs hahaa
I often spend time on my PC with a playlist on the go and thought this would be a good time to share some YouTube channels and playlists with you.
Majesticdnb - Channel
Very nice channel updated every few days or so with new and mostly chilled/liquid/ambient drum and bass
(Also has a dubstep channel.)
MajesticDnb - Playlist
115 tracks listened through this many times and there's only one song I don't like haha.
The Amen Break! you may be wondering what is the Amen break? well no doubt you have heard it before as it is sampled in an unbelievable amount of songs it was originally from a a soul record back in 1969 by Gregory Coleman From the 60s Soul band The Winstons.
The break is a 6 second snippet from a track called "Amen, Brother"
(4 seconds in)
I hope I did that right and the clip works lol my coding knowledge is zero.
(nope it didnt work put link there now)
Anyway this break has been used in many songs since the day it was first recorded like in many old school rave tracks, and early hip hop and was a cornerstone of music in the 90's and has had a big influence on many genres of music including drum and bass and still used in music today.
Its not just used in music, ever seen Futurama? then you have heard it the start of every episode! It has been used by Amy Winehouse, Oasis, Prodigy, N.W.A, Dillinja the list of artists and genres goes on.
Although this break has been used for so much music the band and the drummer Gregory Coleman died in September 2006 and never received any money for the use of the break.
I think the break is great even in its original form!
Here are some dnb tracks for you :)
This is one of the first 10 or so Dnb tunes I was introduced to
TeeBee vs. Future Prophecies - Dimensional Entity (Evol Intent Remix)
