I couldn't tell why they shouldn't be supported but I can copy/paste some
info from their website. Personally I've always been a big fan of Liquid Sky
music as they are always compiling Drum n' Bass that is little more
interesting and experimental. Also most of it is from US artists (if I'm not
mistaken) and most of the songs aren't really heard elsewhere. Basically, if
you're looking for some DnB that sounds different pick up any one of the
"This is Jungle Sky" compilations.
Liquid Sky was started by DJ Soulslinger - Here's a clipping of some info
from the website:
DJ Soul Slinger is a pioneer of electronic music in the US. As the founder
and creative head of Liquid Sky Music and Liquid Sky D-Sign, he has been
responsible for some of the most forward-thinking music and clothing to
emerge from the New York City underground over the last several years. As
Sonic Soul's Retina says in their July/August 1997 issue, "Few American
producers/DJ's/entrepreneurs have done more to help the cause of stateside
drum n' bass than NYC's Carlos Soul Slinger.".
The Liquid Sky story started over a dozen years ago in Soul Slinger's
birthplace, Sao Paulo, Brazil, with a clothing and cosmetics store. After
becoming frustrated with the scene in Sao Paulo, he moved to New York. In
1989, he opened Liquid Sky in New York City, the first so-called "rave
emporium". Liquid Sky has since become the favored destination of all ravers
visiting New York. Soon he was spinning underground house and techno in
Liquid Sky's basement and was a regular at the legendary Limelight.
Soon however, the new sounds of drum and bass caught Soul Slinger's ears,
and they became an integral part of his DJ sets and his production style. In
1994, he released the Jungle Liquid Sky/Ethiopia 12", the first release on
Jungle Sky Records, and the first drum and bass record by a US producer. The
second 12", Abducted/Jungle Bossanova, is now a classic, and inspired an
entire album of remixes (Missing Time - The Abducted Remixes). Since then,
he has released several singles, such as the seminal Diana/Theresa white
label with DJ Wally, as well as appearing on every one of the This Is Jungle
Sky compilations.
