Drum and Bass, also known as drum'n'bass, DnB, or jungle, is a form of Electronic Music that first came about in England during the early 1990's. The first thing you need to know about drum and bass is that it's fast. It isn't necessarily the fastest genre of electronic music, but the overwhelming majority of DnB is between 170 and 180 beats per minute. If a song isn't above at least 155, it's not drum and bass. The reason for this—and the second thing you need to know about DnB—is that the genre is built around breakbeats. The Amen Break was the focal point of the genre's development, and producers have taken apart and rearranged that break in more ways than anyone can possibly count. However, it's certainly not the only break the genre has made use of. Originally, DnB sounded pretty much like acid house and breakbeat hardcore, but with heavier bass and Reggae samples. Now, however, apart from the tempo, the breakbeats, and heavy emphasis on bass frequencies, there are few restrictions on what you can do within the genre. Drum and bass can be and has been combined with everything from jazz and RnB to funk, rock, and metal. Its intensity and mood can vary wildly from song to song, spanning from the lush, atmospheric sounds of LTJ Bukem, Fred V & Grafix and Roni Size to the intense, frenetic tracks of Shy FX, the Qemists and Pendulum. The genre eventually faded out from mainstream popularity during the late 1990's, but still lingered on here and there. Most notably, the Nintendo GameCube demo discs and Nintendo e-Reader of all things prominently featured DnB soundtracks on their menus, helping introduce the genre to a new audience and giving it a new association outside of the club scene alone, while British DnB record label Hospital Records and its co-founders Tony "London Electrikity" Colman and Chris Gossnote London Electrikity is a double act before it became Colman's solo act became known for their appearances as the perpetual in-game label-based radio station in Playground Games and Xbox Game Studios' Forza Horizon series from Forza Horizon 2 onward,note Degs replaced Colman for Forza Horizon 5, though, keeping DnB alive in the gaming world. This in turn would prompt a reemergence of the genre in the underground electronic music scene by the start of the 2020s, thanks to Gen Z artists such as Cacola and Sewerslvt having grown up during DnB's gaming-driven afterlife. |
