A genre with the propensity to disappear up its own arse more than most, I know. However, at its best, it's fucking ace. Oxton Soul only ever dipped its toes in the D 'n' B pool, so I'll undoubtedly have missed loads of great stuff. Ergo, post some tunes please, heads.*

 

I'll start with some obvious ones. First up is the album version of Inner City Life by Goldie. It's only available in sections, so I'll post them because I don't think anything less does it justice - certainly not the feeble three minutes thing that got a single release:

 

EgiHYrfbj18

-iCa2DH0oCg

mkd4V1swP_4

 

Next is Brown Paper Bag by Roni Size and Reprazent. Mmmm, jazzy.

 

b4n0iUtWEwY

 

Miles From Home - Peshay

 

xsOO2arH5IM

 

Hide You - Kosheen. I'm not sure how "down" this tune was, but it's ace so I'm including it.

 

m6U9H0P3DdU

 

 

There should probably be some Bukem stuff on here as well as that other bloke whose name escapes me (in fact I've got a couple of his tunes but can't remember who I mean - is it Adam someone?). Fill in the gaps please people and school my ass.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*This is a term used in Oxton to refer to those in the know about a particularly tune or "scene". Man.

Does "Sound of the Underground" by Girls aloud count??

 

Never been a huge head, you've got to check all the Brazilian stuff. DJ Marky, Patife, all that lot. And anything on Hospital Records.

 

Some tunes for you to check Paul, a few of my favourites:

DK Marky - "LK"

Nu:Tone & Natalie Williams: "System" (big moxter favourite)

J Majik - "Solarize". I'm not normally a big fan of the harder sound but this is my all time favourite drum & bass joint

Peshay - "You Got Me Burning" (big classic Loleatta Holloway disco lick, I think?)

[YOUTUBE]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGVKf_ycaDM&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGVKf_ycaDM&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/YOUTUBE]

 

John B - "Salsa" (Brazil remix)

[YOUTUBE]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqN0p3CVzcU&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqN0p3CVzcU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/YOUTUBE]

 

And one final big Brazilian one: Drumagick - "Easy boom" (biggest selling dnb tune f all time I think) the vocal comes from a Jorge Ben Brazilian 70s classic "take It Easy My Brother Charles"

[YOUTUBE]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZZYC8buHTo&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZZYC8buHTo&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/YOUTUBE]
