I think that you're going to be surprised by some of the upcoming stuff by Virus, Ram, No U turn, etc. I must admit that I've felt the same way for sometime, and my weekly record purchases have declined appropriately, but not so much as it has in the realm of IDM (which has been close to nil). Fortunately, I've just got my hands on a bunch of stuff, both on tape and test-press that's renewed my enthusiasm in the genre. All I can say is just wait, 1999 is going to be a smashing year for drum n bass! > I'm looking forward to not going to Grooverider and Fabio this thursday. I agree with you there...I didn't go see them when they played here in LA last week. AFAIK, Groove is holding d&b back more then he's pushing it forward. peace out, brock out.
