simply great, truly deep emotions!!! I'm really curious if marc mac and dego played keyboards/piano well from the beginning but preferred more electronic oriented sound, or if they learned it in the meantime. anyhow, love their entire catalog. great music

@loonaya never been formally trained, all self taught

[osamabinbollox]

Just came across this,used to listen to 4 Hero when I was a pot head in my youthfull days. Must say i appreciate it alot more now. Anyone know if 4 Hero stills performs live? Yeah, top tune.

[4herotv]

@osamabinbollox we dont havent done a live show since 98...big budgets required, dj gigs here and there these days in between studio work.

[shiyali3]

No offense, but I would have liked 4hero to use their musical background and skills to produce the drum n bass that is missing nowadays. I firmly believe that it is just another musical style worth exploring, and its meant to be made with machines. Excuse this sort of rant, but some educated people will love this beautiful music yet they're so snobby and shallow... If that was the case I'd be listening to jazz right now

[4herotv]

musical background? grew up around sound systems and speaker boxes.

music that's missing today doesnt exist, we did a lot with drum & bass before it had a name and continue to do so...make music for ourselves 1st and foremost, if others like what we do the love is appreciated.

"they could be making epic drum and bass tracks right now."

our catalog of music speaks for itself as 4hero and numerous other pseudonyms, our Reinforced Records label paved the way for what people now call drum & bass and was instrumental in creating the blueprint for what you now listen to, know your history...end of.

@4herotv I think that in most cases, that's better, cause I think that too much theory, schooling and rules can kill creativity and relaxed approach. love from belgrade, serbia. peace

[shejtan77]

one of the most inspiring music albums -Two Pages - by one of the most inspiring producers and musicians. I miss this sound nowadays.

What is the budget for this kind of event guys? It might just be worthwhile to spend it on this music for body and soul...

[smithjohnson112]

Most inspiring influence on my mental development as a drum and bass head.

@pong224 me too haha

Evidence from Dilated Peoples took me here.

It's simply quality tunes, played skilfully & with feeling.

I love all music that I think is quality as does anyone else,

& that's the problem not all people have the same likes & therefore opinions.

I know I (a bit postmodern) like this & think its great, I want others to hear & appreciate it & wish you guys would play live again soon, would love to experience the unique sound of these tunes with a live band.

But I know at least 1 thing, I like this & think its great, I want others to hear & appreciate it & wish you guys could play live again soon, would love to experience the un-duplicate-able (a made up word I believe)sound of a live band.

[Five5six]

I love the rolling back and forth, electronic musicians taking their music on the road with a full band, punk bands covering old electro/techno (The Dirtbombs).

Music is about love...
