(Dec 13 06, 09:53)is pretty good, a bit on the heavy side for my taste, too much mcing smetimes, I went to a few in la with no mc more on the neuro / liquid style and it rocks, plus there s a lot of girls everywhere..
is still pretty good, I used to vj at the rapture n dragon lounge in 04, got to see very cool shows

that craggz and parallel forces my space is pretty nice actually
anyways, nice mix
the only advice i would give you is if you are going to adjust the pitch, try and adjust the plate that doesn't have constant tones...they are much more noticeable when you slow down or speed up the platter.
it's at a certain constant pitch...you adjust and the tone shifts...if you can do that on a snare or kick, or in between...it's much less noticeable
a lot of people are set on the idea they have to adjust the platter with the mix coming in ... feel it out .. if it has constant tones and it would be more noticeable to pitch shift it because of that, then adjust the platter that you are mixing into
if you need to up the pitch on the plate coming in ... then slow down the original plate and vice versa

agreed,
I think in general the US scene has always been a little more techy - hence the US's golden boy Dieselboy and dudes like ak1200. I grew up listening to the old school UK dj's: The Ganja Kru, Hype, Zinc, Die, goldie, DJ Rap and all the guys that pretty much helped found the music. Since then, the scene got darker (sounding) in the late 90's. Jungle pretty much died and the tech dudes took over.
The reason I like the "liquid" branch is because it is the perfect blend of all of drum’n’bass' roots. It draws from its reggae, techy, jungle, and intelligent roots. Really powerful drum’n’bass, in my opinion, will draw of old styles to show you something new and completely different.
Overall, I think the best part about drum’n’bass (whatever particular sect you subscribe to) is its ability to surprise you. There’s nothing better than that moment in a crowd when you look over to the dude next to you and he’s got that same look on his face:
“holy shit”
