Hi,
Goldie is probably the biggest and best-known British drum 'n' bass
(intelligent/ambient/experimental jungle) producer right now. 'Timeless' entered
the national album charts here at number 6 last week, and he's signed a very
expensive deal with FFRR. He's a thirtysomething black ex-breakdancer/graffiti
artis/raver who owns the Metalheadz label, the premier underground intelligent
jungle label in the UK.
I agree about the review of 'Timeless' it is absolutely superb. For stuff in
a similar vein check A Guy Called Gerald, 4 Hero, Roni Size and DJ Krust, LTJ
Bukem, Omni Trio, Aquarius, PFM, Spring Heel Jack, Photek, Jay Majik, Dillinja,
Doc Scott, DJ Crystl, Lemon D, Global Communications' 'Chameleon' alias to name
but a few. There are vast quantities of absolutely superb records by these
people coming out of the British underground at a hell of a rate. This is the
future...
See ya
