Techstep Drum and Bass mix 2009 HD - 9 tunes 10 minutes.

9 tunes within the 10 minute time limit on youtube in a condensed mix pressure style. I am sorry to say this was done on computer not turn tables, so don't give me any false credit, this is just experimental sound and vision, a combination of the art as a whole.

Using space exploration as a backdrop to the industrial futuristic techstep style drum and bass sounds bringing a surreal edge to it.

Techstep developed from jungle music and hardstep around 1995.[4] The name of the genre was coined by Ed Rush and Trace, who were both instrumental in shaping the sound of techstep.[5] In this case, "tech" did not indicate a relation to the smoother style of Detroit techno, but to the rawer, more caustic hardcore sounds that were popular in Belgium in the earlier part of the decade. Techstep was a reaction to more virtuosic and more pop musical elements in jungle and drum 'n' bass, which were seen as an adulteration of "true" or "original" jungle.[6] Instead the genre was infused with a simpler, colder, "whiter" European sound that stripped away most R&B elements, and replaced them with a more hardcore sound,[7] and ideological influences like youth anti-capitalism movements, and dystopian films like Blade Runner and Robocop.[8]
One of the first incarnations of the techstep sound is Dj Trace's remix of T-Power's "Mutant Jazz" which appeared on S.O.U.R. Recordings in 1995. This remix, co-produced by Ed Rush and Nico, features the trademark stepping beats and distorted Reese bassline which would become symbolic of the techstep genre. The Torque compilation (No U Turn), Breakage LP (Penny Black 1997), and Platinum Breakz 1, 2, and MDZ 01 ( Metalheadz) feature some selections of techstep tracks.

Some of the original techstep producers eventually matured into the neurofunk style. Early pioneers include Trace, Ed Rush & Optical, Nico, Fierce, Panacea,[9] Teebee, Dom and Roland, Doc Scott and Technical Itch. Moving Shadow, Metalheadz, No U-Turn Records, Emotif, Position Chrome and Renegade Hardware were important labels in the development of the style.

Now, the scene is led by artists such as Noisia, Spor, Phace, Misanthrop , Apex and Black Sun Empire.

These tunes are from 1997, maybe there was a development stage of techstep to the one you know.

This is techstep drum and bass from what I know of it, but a mjority of people like it which is good while as one can not please everyone.

[studentdebts]

I did not use auto beat match, just basic mixing and splicing.

[studentdebts]

Of course I admit that wickipedia helped me to word it better, but does not mean back in the day I did not hear the term 'TechStep' this was its own style back in 97' but it is still drum and bass.
