Link: D&BA – Decade of Drum & Bass Part 1 (2000-2002)

Well this sneaked into my podcasts the other day and I’m very excited about giving this a listen. It’s a history lesson in D&B looking at the play list so if you missed D&B of early part of the decade, take a listen to this.

Feline D&BTV Takeover – TONIGHT from 7pm

Tonight sees the Ladies step up on D&BTV Live for the first time in an all female or is that Feline night of drum and bass. Featuring some old school legends and breakthrough talent, tonight’s show is going to be something special.

I’m personally really excited to see this line up and for it to be something of a first. There are very few women in drum and bass so this is a showcase of talent and sorts the women from the girls. The MCing/vocals from Deeizm are truly beautiful and the skills of Storm are impeccable. I don’t wanna get into the whole female thang right now but there is a lack of women stepping up as Artists/DJs/MCs/Producers. But I’ll leave that for another post ;) Anyway, enjoy tonight’s Feline extravaganza…

Feline – We salute you!

Top 10 D&B Tweeps

Blu Mar Ten has done some serious work around connecting the D&B community on Twitter and produced a definitive list of D&B players and related peeps on his site. If you’re serious about what is going on the industry or your a fan then head over and check out the list.

I’ve been following quite a few of them for a while now so I’ve put together the ‘Top 10 D&B Peeps on Twitter List’ as a good starter if you’re new to Twitter or D&B. It’s a mixture of artists/producers, DJs and other interesting D&B people who have something damn interesting to say and are using Twitter for all the right reasons.

In no order (I promise)…

Simon ‘Baseline’ Smith – @basslinesmith – Tweets about the regular things a boys gets up to plus all the mental D&B gubbins you wanna hear about. And yes, he does tweet back :)

London Elektricity – @londonelek – Tweeting about Hospital Records stuff, the infamous (and award winning) Hospital Podcasts and how the tour of OZ and NZ is going… And general showing off (damn you Colman!)

Blame – @blame720 – Been around for a while (in the industry and) on Twitter… remixes, tunes and where he’s playing.

DJ Zinc – @djzinc – General stuff and things plus links to new tunes and gigs.

DJ Flight – @djflightPhotography, life at BM Soho and D&B banter.

John B – @johnbbeta – He’s got it covered! Pics, gigs and friend of the stars… he really is all over Twitter!

Craggz – @craggzcraggz -Footie, life and constantly in the studio.

The Risky – @therisky – Drum and Bass Arena’s head honcho, tweeting about the podcasts, tunes and beers in the sunshine.

Commix – @GuyCommixFeeling the Twitter vibe more than most – Gigs, pics and life tweets.

and finally…

Blu Mar Ten – @blumarten – Doing some sterling work on connecting the D&B Twitter crowd and I urge you to contribute to his D&B list!

I’m sure there are plenty more out there so if you wanna add any other recommendations on who to follow on Twitter, bang it in the comments.

Oh and Mike Skinner is a good giggle too!
