Well, hate is a strong word, but I'm definately not a fan. It seems to be a hype machine out of control, but then again the only drum and bass I enjoy at all is the 'avant-guarde' stuff like Amon Tobin and Journeyman who arent locked into doing it every track for the sake of it. To me (and my probably ignorant views on the genre), alot of the drum and bass artists sound like house without the droll 4/4 kick. I'm not dissing the whole scene, and while I've checked out both Platinum Breaks and some DJ Die and Peshay, I don't consider myself qualified to pass judgement either way, but I agree, Roni Size (and Goldie for that matter, since they seem to be the Monsters of Jungle right now) is boring. clockwise np: U.N.K.L.E.
