This is one of my favorite ASC tunes. What really gets me, even over and above the mood hook, is the complexity of the rhythms, one-off shots, and just how many odd/oblique turns of phrase it has in it. It's stuff like this that puts these guys (ASC and Consequence) up at the top of my list as producer's producers, similar to how a lot of Stray's work showcases strong novelties and a lot of unique injects.

Some infectious Mediterranean reggae from a Turkish dnb and hip hop producer:

I've been listening to a lot of DnB lately especially since it keeps coming up in my youtube recommended and most of it is from artists/labels you posted. I've made DnB my day time music since I've been burnt out on metal lately and prefer to listen to trip hop at night. The skies around where I live are getting foggy and darker sooner so it fits the mood for me. It is also good when I'm doing something I think is too fast paced for trip hop like jogging, driving fast or some of the games I play.

Not sure if this counts as DnB buts its on a Mosaic album and I like it


I like this Stray song though you probably heard it already techstepgenr8tion.


I like the video for this song. It sums up the atmosphere of drum & bass for me.


This song also uses the vocal stab that we've been talking about. I'm impressed with how this guy is able to keep up with the beat of the song. I'd imagine DnB is a hard genre to rap over since a lot of rap is about flow .


Speaking of which all this DnB reminded me of a video game franchise I loved as a kid named Ratchet & Clank. The early PS2 games had a lot of DnB and other electronic inspired music with some funk added to it. Now I feel like downloading an emulator and playing all the PS2 games again. I knew the game was funny but I never knew it was really funny now that I realize all the adult jokes and sexual innuendo that went over my head. I'm sad that the most recent Ratchet & Clank game has a mostly generic movie score soundtrack.

I believe Sittles is one of the guys in The Levelz and yeah the guy's incredibly agile on the vocals.

Just discovered this Electrosoul System today, I like this style of DnB.

On The Run is pretty soulful


I like this song the most from him so far


Another good song, I like the singer for these songs


This one is more trance/psy/goa but I think it fits in here


This one has a more creepy vibe that I like

You might like Medschool as a label. Electrosoul had a full album released over there and they tend to do a fair amount of smooth liquid like that on their yearly New Blood series.
