Do you have a lot of DnB from the 90’s? if so, just ignore me, but I was just listening to the Goldie Essential Mix from ’96 recently and that has a few Metalheadz tracks on it so thought of that when I saw this thread. Download here Tracklist Here

Glad you found what you were looking for. I know very little about the genre, but I do know it's often difficult to find the stuff that does it for you. It's like a minefield in obscurity. I don't know if it's good or bad, but I'm a PFM fan.

I don't know his tracks by name, but he's not done a track that I can put on the headphones and just work like a nutter to! Hugely creative. Not perhaps quite as banging as the previous offerings though.

Not DnB, but I'm a huge fan of this too;

I havent heard 'dead calm' for years! thats an amazing track.
Did you used to goto the Bluenote on a Sunday night in the mid/late '90s perchance?!
