i used to be really excited about d&b when it had long left the underground and was becoming the big thing in 95-96. this excitement peaked with no u turn's torque, and from then on i all but completely lost interest in what's happening to d&b because i listened to one huge disappointment after the other - the era of overhyped, emotionless, unimaginative noodling (yes, noodling) that was started with roni size's newforms [what a god-foresaken piece of shit] and most recently brought ed rush & optical's wormhole. it's very much possible that i'm just missing something - can anyone explain to me what the difference is between any given early no u turn release and the ever-so-futuristic wormhole? i'd be glad to know because i still like d&b a lot - especially in a club setting. luke vibert spun one killer techstep set at a rephlex night recently, btw. cheers, tom At 15:44 31.05.99 -0500, xxxx_xxxxxxxxxxx@xxxx.xxx wrote: >I was just listening to Logical Progression Volume 1 today and I got to >thinking, where the hell did music like this go to?
