    turn of the millennium drum and bass is honestly so good. With software coming into play, production techniques for electronic music were becoming more advanced. You could do more with synthesizers and you could process (and re-process) samples in wild new ways. If you listen to dnb from the mid 90s to the mid 2000s the changes are incredible.

      Yeah. I was actually listening to Ed Rush & Optical’s album “Wormhole” for the very first time the other day, and while it’s pretty tame by the standards set by stuff that came after it, I couldn’t help but think of how wild it must have been to go from stuff like Dred Bass, Ricky, Terrorist, Maximum Style, etc. to Wormhole in only 3-4 years.
