i've axed lot's-0-people 'bout this and got a completly unique answer every time.
Answeres varied from:
1. What the fu*,'K iz that
2. Yes i do have a brown cat
3. Only once
To some of the more sensible types:
1. Winston Brothers/ Amen Brother (B-Side)
2. Some russian psycho
3. Developed from reggae, when they speeded up the beat and experimented with da machine.
4. Hip-Hop on dope, some say that.
So actually where did it originate, originally?? (do i make sense?)
BIG UP DNB

The ravers were raving'. Some thought the 140-150bpm limit got a bit obnoxious. Too many ravers came up with pills, xtc,... so they shifted the bpm to 180. And yes, even LTJ Bukem was part of that typical british rave-scene. That's how dnb/jungle was formed.
At the same time hiphopproducers and dancehall/ragga headz experimented with too many greenish THC and came up with the jungle-rhythm by speeding up their standard beats. "Oowps, wrong button! Hey wait a minute, this sounds dope actually!"
All this got backed-up by the sampling technique that had evolved into sampling breaks, instead of vocals or usual soundscape-ish stuff.
There you go, our reason for a happy existence in a nutshell.

Most music styles are born out of one or more older existing music styles.. If you go far enough back, Blues is an "ancestor" of House/Techno/DnB/...
It's not like they said - hey let's create a new style, it's more of an evolution with influences from all the things they like, other artists - and yes - there are certainly old rave influences in DnB. It evolved so much, that it developed own specific characteristics that was adopted by only a part of the public from the original styles it evolved from, and also attracted new ppl who weren't attracted to the original styles. A new style is born, someone makes up a name, and voila...

Nice, thnx for the links man
yeah i know that no music genre just started out from nowhere but there was some genres that had like one person mostly accredited for the creation.
i juz thought there would be a dnb guy that did the same.
hey if anyone could come to oklahoma, us and make alot of dnb parties to ENLIGHTEN THE BOORING OKLAHOMA CROWD. during the last 3 months there waz only ONE, ONE (i will repeat, sorry) ONE
drumn'bass party (Evol Intent), and the saddest thing waz, nobody wanted to go wit me (sad), and i didn't go coz' i had no ride. (damn trans-portation)

Insert 10 cc of dnb, STAT!

The Enemy of Evol Intent told me the scene in the states sucked... We have multiple parties almost every day of the weekend. Most of them are quite small, but always cozy and enough peeps too fill it up. Damn, we're lucky!!!

i also did not appreciate what i had back in my country (Macedonia,Skopje)
we had a home organized (wit home dj'z) party almost every week (if not to partiez, a week)
and i did go to most of them, but now, thiz iz a big shock! IM ON THE DRY HERE
the only person in oklahoma that said she knows what dnb iz, she actually iz from my country?? wierd izn't it.
ok ill stop wine-ing, and ill begin beer-ing
coz' i prefer the delicate BEER taste, over the wine taste.
But, in 6 months, i'll be able to live on dnb again (and not on air, like here)
Hey, i got an idea:
Let's find 100 peoplez that are crazy 'bout britney and jay-z and let's fuckin' tie em up in a room where 24/7 dnb sound is on (in big speaker)
i wonder what effect would that have?
they come out from there with a good taste 4 musiq maybe??
(im juz kiddin' am actually a pacifist and wouldn't hurt anybody, 'cept self-defence)
DNB ON

the effect will probably heavy headbanging from their side when they hear Concord Dawn's dnb mix of Britney's Toxic Tongue ROFL

but have you tried already to go to some american dnb sites , like midwest dnb .com ( i think its this adress) ... i think there you could find lots of similar minded people , who perhaps even live in your neigbourhood Bigup

Cry Chicago's drum + bass scene is dead. We used 2 have the Seminar + BassbythePound which would bring in all kinds of talent but people stopped showing up. What the fuck happened? why!?!?!?!?!?
I had some life changing experiences at those events ... like when I saw Teebee in 2001 = "U think u a motherfuckin DJ?!!!!!!! ... OWWWW!!!!!"

well first there was Adam and Eve, then Adam went ruffling on this block of wood.
Eve tought 'hey Adam, thats wicked' so she cut a few locks of hair and spinned them around a stick,which she got from a tree, and began to gently strike it hard. suddenly a snake came out of the bushes and tought 'how splendid' and added a complete high-hat line. they jammed the whole evening, night and morning.

Thats how it began!

cheers

Thank you 4 the feelings man. Crying but ... the story doesn't end like that. Jungle/drum+ bass will never die in this (suburb of Chicago) heart.
I could see myself blendin tunes + werkin the beats well beyond the grave! Burning
The saddest thing about the D+B death in Chicago is that our last show was Photek, DJ Hype + Total Science and still barely anybody came ... everybody knew it was the last show. What the F*ck!!??Booze

probably the goverment hatez dnb and let a subconciuos message through all the commercials and POP Music that say, STOP LISTENING TO gr8 MUSIC
(so they stopped listening 2 drumnbass)
did you know that pop music is created
"By the goverment"
"For the goverment"
hehe Smile
after death, try haunting someone to become a drumnbass producer-slash-dj
that works 4 me.
actually im not the person who i look i am.
i took his body, and now i make music.
Sweeet
live it up!!
