It boils down to how "pure" one likes drum n bass. Photek's Modus is the unfiltered essence of drum n bass - minimal melodic text. Is this an enjoyable listening experience? To d n b zealots, it's the ultimate beatfest. Me, I'd much rather listen to d n b which successfully sucks up other influences, like Plug and Roni Size. The new Stereolab and Pizzicato 5 boast some excellent crossover drum n bass pop. By the way, has anyone else noticed that in the United States, drum n bass has achieved greater prominence in TV advertising than in any other arena of society? You're more likely to hear it in a Lexus commercial than at your local dance club. - BigKumquat

Just to pick up on Stereolab : it's too fluffy, lazy loungey and candyflossy for me, but I took off one track (A Flower Called Nowhere) and stuck it onto a mixed comp and every time it comes on, all I can do it go WOW as far as the production goes. The _quality_ of the layered sound is totally ace. Everything crystal clear, everything right *there* where it should be. Haven't got the sleeve, thus don't know who the credits are due to - but boy, nice mixing and sound balancing. I * "Incomplete without surface noise" - Autechre
