@Despicable So I listened to Insides and I have to say it hasn't dated well, compared to Timeless by Goldie released at the same time, it's amateur day I'm afraid. If that's their best work then I think it's fair to say they are totally mediocre dance music producers and they haven't really innovated anything interesting in the genre.
@francotron2000 It depends on use of the word Producer. Yes they are not technically advanced, but I find the structure of some of the later tracks on that album really interesting in the way that they evolve and keep developing throughout, which is a rare thing in dance music. I don't think it's fair to judge music from one scene against something from another on its quality of production, if so you could write off the entire Grime scene.
@francotron2000 I used to be really harsh about lower quality Drum 'n' Bass producers cos I was so spoilt by all the Virus stuff, but I've become more open minded about 'production' over the years!
@coffunism you have just made my online mate very very happy. He was the one who posted light in darkness and was lamenting the fact that there was no full length version. So thank you very much :~)
this has none of the finesse of the original. Orbital are not very good producers.

@francotron2000 I don't rate this track, but that is a ridiculous statement to make.

@DespicableOne I just think they're overrated, I love Chime but other than
that I've never heard anything that really impressed me. compared to YMO they're very basic.

@francotron2000 Check out the Insides album. If you don't like that, then fair enough.

@riseup20twelve Ha! Yeah, there was only a 1.30 version available on line, so I thought I had to get on the case!
