Since roughly 2011, the general opinion is that house, and in particular deep house, rules supreme. So much so that D&B heads have recently struggled far too many times to snatch the aux lead away for themselves and fill the party with those fast paced break beats that we all crave so badly. Most cities are now filled with the admittedly tasty, rubbery bass that comes along with deep house, but how has the drum and bass scene actually dealt with this influx? Well, well by the looks of it, it's not even phased it. Recently we have all seen the drum & bass world climb higher and higher, commercially, and underground. The most recognised drum and bass labels (Hospital Records, Ram Records, Viper Recordings, Shogun Audio etc.) are all going from strength to strength, including having most recently been part of the very first Radio 1Xtra drum and bass soundclash. Equally, the less commercialised side of d&b, including the darker corners intended only for those who dare to explore them, show no sign of stopping. In recent years we've all seen the ascent of the likes of Audio, Dub Phizix, Icicle, Noisia,and many more. But arguably, the biggest "fuck you" to the house world is it's unbelievable ability to remix a house track, using all the influences and dynamic structures that D&B has to offer, and making it far surpass the original. Essentially, drum & bass has either stuck to exactly what it's best at, or it's moulded and adopted sounds from what is now the most popular genre. Since roughly 2011, the general opinion is that house, and in particular deep house, rules supreme. More at guestlist.net Problem Icicle ft.
