It's not mine.

So many lame cock suckers that post on this board.  Drum & bass, techno, house are amazing genres, and like most things - especially when you dig in and explore them to find the gems....of which there are literally hundreds.  There are countless tracks within those genres that are among RDJ's favorite music and a good portion of his early, most classic material is straight up techno.  Ever take a look at the tracks Richard posted in his youtube thread on Soundcloud?  Pretty much the majority of it is comprised of these genres.

This is an example of why for many years he shunned broader success outside of the underground.  Because you have idiot fan boys, like some of the people talking shit in here that don't know anything about the music and it's origins.

Dance music has an actual function that just kind of wipes the floor with most of your bedroom listening, chin stroking nonsense.

yes yes. please dont add to the negativity. :)

gonna be a great event with a great line-up. although some people in the crowd might be grumpy and complaining about the generic d&b. shit happens. people complaining is equally generic, ironically.

(going meta as well, prolly. but just a tiny little bit less)

I really like dance music but I don't go to clubs. Now that's IDM!

Good clip of Dev talking about his live set up and the second clip is a track called Linear Control which he only plays live. Would love a release of that one, great Amen and Soul Beat Runna chops.

what a nice fella

gonnna be MASF

Another thing I've noticed is that people on here only like something that's been approved/played by Richard.  Paradox is good but he's rather average within the genre of drum & bass.  The golden age of D&B is from roughly 93' to 04'.  This is when all the most innovative, classic, timeless material came out give or take a couple years.  Within that timeframe there are innumerable gems and every year the style was evolving and changing.  So I urge anyone who likes paradox's stuff to explore the genre in greater depth.

I'd have to disagree. He's had tunes out on Moving Shadow, Reienforced. Renegade Hardware, Metalheadz... Not many artists have that track record, especially an average artist.

I'd also have to say that the 'golden era' in jungle/dnb ended 98/99 at the latest IMO

Yeah OK I followed jungle/drum & bass RELIGIOUSLY from 94' to about 2006.  In that time period I know every significant record that came out as well as many of the most obscure and I saw every producer worth anything several times over in various cities.  There is absolute nothing you can tell me about the genre.  You are dead wrong first of all with your statement of "98-99"  The period of 00'-01' brought a whole new direction and host of game changing artists to the genre that are copied to this day.  In fact all the drum & bass you hear today comes from the style that was birthed from around 2000 - 2002....and like I said in my original post "give or take a few years.  98' was somewhat of a down year however 99 was a great year for drum & bass. 

 I'm familiar with most of Paradox's catalog and I like about 5 tracks he's ever done so to me...as I said - he's good but not close to being one of the best or a standout in the genre.  Just because Richard likes his stuff means nothing to me.  I consider myself an OG master of the genre haha. 

Wow.

You obviously know eveything about the genre and everything about me.

I will never be so stupid as to post my own opinion in this forum again...

my golden era runs every Monday from 7 to 8!

in the holidays till 12 though. holidays have a distinct golden era vibe. somewhat more bass, im guessing

17 more double gins please bar-steward!

It's all been downhill since April 1993.

yikes

lolol

Him failling to understand how opinions work never ceases to amuse me

His stuff under his 'Alaska' moniker is good as well, if you're into more atmospheric sounds.
