Bum. Bum. Bum. I'm after your home address. Pweh, just let me know tomorrow after you've checked tonight, and I'll sort you out. :)

Nice one, I'll sort out a cd chock full of mp3's for you over the next couple of days....

Aphex Twin is hardly dance dude. It's thrash D&B with a pinch of grunge

From the stuff thats been mentioned below (Aphex, meat beat, etc) it seems like some of you might like Rob Dougan

Try find 'Furious Angels' ... or anything else. He rocks lots.

Aphex Twin: Brilliant, twisted electro-especially Windowlicker. Other artists that are, somehow, fantastic, are BK (famous for his under ground Hard House clasic 'Revolution'), and other artists like Andy Farley, Plump DJ's (you've probably heard of the Plumps) and Nick Rowland.

Didn't expect this much replies, but keep your opinions and critisism coming!

UW. I'm back.

Agreed. The music industry is messed up: talented artists from the underground that do not sound like 'DJ Sammy' aren't getting into the charts. This type of argument can also go for many rock bands, but artists like BK, Junior Jack, Mylo, Madvillian, John 'OO' Flemming, etc. should be commercialised as they will teach a lesson to DJ Sammy and co. what Dance music really is.

Aphex aint really drum and bass, more experimental techno on speed. or what they call drill'n bass

If you prefer it alot more rough and twisted try some squarepusher or other warp record artists.

oh and if u really want d'nb and grunge mixed together try and get hold of Nightbreed - Pack of Wolves. Andy c has drop it loads in his sets recently, i dont really like it, buts its a breath of fresh to what is a fairly 'samey' genre.

I never said it was drum & bass.

:-P

I think the problem is that it is very hard to hear new dance stuff.

I don't have braodband, so no way of listening to online radio stations, though when I was at unversity www.digitallyimported.com had me listening for hours...

Also, the clubs round here are rubbish, playing R'nB and crap like that. I don't have sky either, so there's no real way for me to find new artists to listen to.

The only way would be to go into HMV or Play or where ever and buy random cd's hoping that I'll like them.

Last year I went to mp3.com and found some new artists on there that I liked the sound of, but since then the site has shut down, apparently to re-open, but I've given up keep checking on it.

Oh, for those that like slightly more chilled out dance, have a listen to Fila Brazilia or Bonobo, both top artists.

And the Rob Dougan track Fallen Angels - heard it last year and it sounded very similer to Clubbed to Death to me...
