  Drum and bass - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Many felt that jungle music had weathered the support, and then hostility, of the mainstream media (which had declared that "Drum and bass is dead" in the late 90s), and that the revival of chart success indicated that the style was more than a passing fashion.
Drum and bass is usually between 160-180 BPM, in contrast to other forms of Breakbeat such as Nu skool breaks which maintain a slower pace at around 130-140 BPM.
Drum and bass is mostly sold in 12-inch vinyl single format, although some albums, compilations and DJ mixes are sold on CD.

 Drill n bass - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Drill n' Bass (drole 'n boos) is a type of electronic music that emerged from Drum n' Bass in the mid-1990s.
The genre is characterized by rapid, highly distorted snare drum rolls, generally culled from the famous "amen" breakbeat sample being applied to normal drum and bass breakbeats.
The exponential increase in complexity and attention to measure-by-measure detail found in Drill n' Bass is significant; it was the first substantial distancing from the dancefloor aesthetic of early Drum n' Bass.

Early jungle was an offshoot of rave (US readers may think of this as techno music but "rave" is very different from the stripped-down Detroit "techno" sound) music (colloquially known as 'hardcore', as played by Spiral Tribe) that focused on the breakbeat.
Brazilian drum and bass is sometimes called Sambass.
As befits its name, the bass element of the music is particularly pronounced, with the comparitively sparse arrangments of Drum and bass tracks allowing room for basslines that are deeper than most other forms of dance music.

 Drum_and_bass
Probably the widest held viewpoint is that the terms are simply synonymous and interchangeable: drum and bass is jungle, and jungle is drum and bass.
Beginnings in the UK Early jungle was an offshoot of rave (US readers may think of this as techno music but "rave" is very different from the stripped down Detroit "techno" sound) music (colloquially known as 'hardcore', as played by Spiral Tribe) that focused on the breakbeat.
On the other end of the spectrum, a new dark, technical sound in drum and bass was gaining popularity, championed by the labels Emotif and No U-Turn, and artists like Trace, Ed Rush and Optical, and Dom and Roland, and commonly referred to as techstep.

 DRUM'N'BASS_PIONEER ROB PLAYFORD
For the drum 'n' bass scene, this meeting of minds proved to be one of those rare turning points in music where two artists collaborate, affecting the future in one inspired moment.
Up until that time, drum 'n' bass was thriving in the dark depths of the UK's underground club scene, but Timeless proved that the style's scattershot rhythms, depth-charge bass lines, and eerie chordal pads could appeal to listeners in their living rooms as well as to club goers on the dance floor.
Although Playford is still deeply involved with the drum 'n' bass scene through his efforts with his labels and as a DJ, he's spending more time participating in projects outside of that realm, such as his recent work with the alternative rock bands Corduroy and Snow Bunny.

Aside from being utilized in numerous commercials and T.V. shows, elements of Drum and Bass have appeared in songs by such artists as David Bowie, Outkast, and Linkin Park.
Drum and Bass, also known as DNB, drum n bass, and jungle, is a form of electronic dance music (often called electronica or mislabeled as simply "techno" music) that employs a break-beat instead of the 4/4 beat found in house and trance.
This rhythm broken down to its basic components consists of using a kick drum sound and a snare with the beats being played on the 1, 3, 6, and 7 half beats, alternating between the kick and the snare.

Funky, uplifting and clean, the opening track sets an upbeat mood that is quite refreshing in the darkness-dominated landscape of drum n' bass music.
This is in itself a tribute to the accomplishment of the man as an artist, as any musician will tell you that building your own musical identity is essential to achieving success.
Although the title of this album suggests that it is not intended to pander to the tastes of any particular group, I believe that its sheer quality will appeal to quite a range of drum n' bass artists and listeners alike.

I think this book is good, since there are few other books about the subject of drum and bass, there are some glaring mistakes.

Nonetheless, this is one artist I will be keeping an eye on.
Bass - the filter-swept bass sweeps could use a little more low end - I suspect the filter causes the sound to have higher amplitude at higher cutoff, so compression could well sort this out.
there's a nagging feeling that it lacks a certain "je ne sais quoi"; if the artist could find this, it would be unquestionably astounding; as it stands now, it is 'only' very good.

Like Paul Oakenfold, Carl Cox and fellow drum 'n' bass artists Goldie and Photek, Aphrodite is part of a growing breed: the DJ as rock star.
The downside of DJ rock stars is that, in spite of the peace, love and unity talk, it means the jungle/DandB scene can be just as backward when it comes to women as rock or hip-hop.
We take it the latter is supposed to have us believe King is being "ironic," but the only irony here is that he took his name from a female goddess.
