AREA 1
DB / AMONLY / Breakbeat Science / NYC
Arriving in New York from London in '89, it could be said that no one has done more for Drum & Bass in America than DB. First with his hardcore Breakbeat club NASA, then by launching Sm
e communications and releasing the first Jungle singles & compilations in the U.S, as well as signing DJ Dara, thus kick starting his artist career. He & Dara then opened Breakbeat Science, dedicated to Drum & Bass, It quickly become not only the most respected record store & label, but also the very epicenter of the jungle community in the u.s. Having recently "10", his tenth mix cd in ten years, he is now working on an artist album with dj Stakka, focusing on the more musical side of the genre, which as a dj, is what DB has become best loved for.
FORCE / Ohm Resistance / Direct Drive / Cyber Groove / Big-H / NYC
DJ Force was first introduced to the sounds of jungle / drum and bass by the dj Reid Speed at her Long Island home back in 1995. From there he acquired Dara's epic "Tearout" mix (or was it an Odi mix? We'll never know...) and was hooked. Years of playing live rock shows led him into a strong addiction to musical performance & arrangement, which he parlayed into DJ greatness. DJ Force plays all styles of "proper" d&b, but chooses to concentrate on big-energy dancefloor tunes. At the moment his favorite producers in drum and bass are: Fresh, IllSkillz, Pendulum, Jon[s], Garon, Paradox, Fracture, Neptune, Future, Prophecies, Dillinja, and the Burner Brothers.
