Drum and Bass (D&B) is a high-energy genre of electronic music originating in the UK in the early 1990s. It is characterized by fast breakbeats, powerful basslines, and a BPM range of 160-180. The genre has evolved into subgenres like neurofunk, known for its dark sound, and liquid funk, which features smoother and more melodic elements. Drum and bass has a global influence, with a vibrant club and festival culture, and has produced iconic artists like Goldie and Noisia.

Seems like breakcore is getting some hype..
The Flashbulb made a mix for XLR8R magazine.
Taken from 2007/05/podcast_sublight_records.
“Since 2004, Winnipeg, Canada’s Sublight Records has been a crucial force in the breakcore and experimental electronic stratospheres, releasing albums from bedroom maniacs Servants of the Apocalyptic Goat Rave, The Gasman, and Ebola (just listen to the names!).
In homage to the headache-inducing label and its fleet of artists, XLR8R commissioned Benn Jordan (a.k.a. The Flashbulb) to compile a mix of the scratchy, doomy, spazzed-out ‘core we’ve come to embrace over the past few years. Featuring anti-hits from the likes of Venetian Snares, Richard Devine, and Wisp, our latest podcast will rip you to shreds. Hear his mix now, exclusively at the XLR8R Podcast DJ Mix Series.”
Here is the download:
Tracklist:
1. Puzzleweasel “FODHOVL”
2. Mark Swift “The Midsummers Swift”
3. Richard Devine “Arc Acid”
4. Wisp “Untethered”
5. The Flashbulb “The Sun And The Star”
6. Enduser “Interruption “1
7. Ebola “Wet T-shirt DSP”
8. Venetian Snares “Yip Yaps”
9. Belladonnakillz “The Man”
10. Datach’i “Lilian”
11. Gareth Clarke “Espirit De Corps”
12. Mr. Projectile “You Need (Cepia Mix)”
13. Synthamesk “Black Sky”
14. The Gasman “Qunce”
15. Lynx And Ram “Walls Are Melting”
16. Acrnym “Kate Says Aye”
