Technical & hard yes, innovative no. They use to put
out interesting music, but now they are pretty
boring. Probably the worst dnb track I've heard is
Moving Fusion's 'Skull Smasher". All they did was
sample 808 State Cubik and make a dnb track out of it.
Not to mention that track had been sampled to death
in the early 90s. Old Ram is cool, the new stuff
forget about it.

Teebee use to be pretty cool, all his tracks seem like
he's rehashing familiar territory. That's the whole
problem with the drum n bass scene, everyone has
jumped onto the same sound and just keep regurgitating
the same kind of stuff.
Does anyone remember when everyone had their own
sound?
There were even different camps that sounded different
and everyone tried to out do each other and there was
a lot of progression in the sound. Nowadays it just
sounds like everyone just wants to whip out a tune
without putting much effort into it....like that whole
92 techno revamped into dnb songs....like Moby's "Go"
being turned into a dnb tune by Dylan. That tune was
never good in the first place!! I certainly hope
Angelo Badalamenti and/or David Lynch got some money
for that tune.
