This review is from: Breakbeat Science: Exercise 01 (Audio CD)

this cd is a fast-paced thrill ride through contemporary american drum & bass. he starts the album out with a frenzied fast stepping pace and then moves into dirtier more familiar territory by track 4's "vertical drop" (decoder remix) which seems incorgruent sandwiched between tracks 3 and 5's tech-step pacing but acheives the desired effect well. by track 6's "together" things get really nasty as rolling basslines and female vocals echo in and out of the background leaving one to ponder just how much more "hardcore" it can get. when we hit track 9's "social skills" we are brought into lush auditory bliss with the unfamiliar sound of future-step. the cd then climbs higher and higher until by track 13's "identity" the cd reaches its climax and then is brought back down by two following tracks of laid-back jungle. incredible amount of variety and value on this one... definately recommended.

Another mix Cd by the Ireland born Dj Dara. THis time he focuses on the U.S. drum & bass scene more than the Ever popular U.K. scene. All the Tracks on here are done by U.S. producers, (Aside from the Total Science remix of JL's "Dust") The Cd Rolls from the opening tune to the closing tune. I especially like the Kaos + Karl K tune "Street Knowledge", which uses the Dr.Dre sample from the old NWA days. Trust me, If you like drum and Bass, you will love Dara's Style and Tune Selection. Keep it Real DARA, big ups to the POTD Krew! Thanks. D.C. Junglism FO REAL!

Features a variety of styles, not one of those albums where it sounds like we're listening to the exact same track.
Lots of hard sounds, but a few more mellow tracks as well.
Some melody, and lots of crazy beats!
Probably Dara's best work.
