D&B Gig (DnB, DrumnBass)

[trd42x]

Hey, Im heading to Patong Phuket with a big group of friends and Ive been told there's not alot on offer in the way of drum n bass. I love D&B and other dance music and am a DJ soooooo... Im wondering if there are many people who will be in phuket at the same time (4-11 Nov) who'd be interested in hearing some Drum n Bass or similar style music. If theres enough interest I could look into setting up a gig! Im open to suggestion on the tunez as well but I generally spin liquid throwing in a few dirty beats here and there (anything with a party vibe). Ive listed a few artists below to give you more of an idea. Let us know people... either way me and the crew are gonna get loose!!!

LTJ Bukem
DJ Marky
Brookes Brothers
Roni Size
Shockone (im a perth boy)
Subfocus
Chase and Status
Dom and Roland
Wilkinson
Delta Heavy

I just checked it out. It sounds like they put a gay meth-head in charge of the elevator music.

[Somtamnication]

Nope, never heard of it. Heard of Dumb and Ass, but not drum and bass.

Anyway, thanks guys. We live in a world where if you don't ask you don't get. We asked, seems like it won't happen but that's cool. Cheers.

"I just checked it out. It sounds like they put a gay meth-head in charge of the elevator music."

Quote reminds me of something my father said when the Beatles came out back in 62: "You call that long haired shit music?"

The thing that strikes me about this "drum & bass" (I just listened to a bunch on youtube) is there are plenty of instruments, certainly not just drum & bass.
Much better than some rap that's popular today. (I don't dislike rap music in general, just some of the words.)

Creativity is what's good. In this day and age, you don't have to be a musician to make music.

Just for historical accuracy, the Beatles did not have long hair in 1962.

Re: 'Creativity is what's good. In this day and age, you don't have to be a musician to make music.'

Herein lies the problem. One hundred years ago, if you wanted to enjoy music you had to learn how to play an instrument -- unless you were rich enough to (literally) 'pay the piper'.

When I was growing up there was definitely a 'generational bias' as to what constituted good music, but we are losing that along with the loss of musicianship -- and I think it is a great shame.

I suppose it is true that 'in this day and age you don't need to be a musician to make music', but I guess that depends on how you define the word 'music'. Technically speaking, anyone who creates music is a musician, right? But for me 'DnB' is a bit of a stretch.

Anyway, my comment "It sounds like they put a gay meth-head in charge of the elevator music" was off-the-cuff, tongue-in-cheek and based on three minutes of YouTube research -- not exactly a representative sample.

Maybe I am not taking the right drugs.
