How would you describe DnB music ? And why did you decide to play
DnB ?
SLO : "Addictive, diverse, subliminal, mellow and hard at the
same time, perfect fusion of many styles and genres, feeds my mind with tranquillity, brings back life
and energy to me in these f***d up times and on this suffocating
planet..."
Isn't the description above enough for a decision to be in love with dnb? ;-)"
ADNAN : The d'n'b sound is very strong and it is a fast music with fast beats and hard bass. It's the mixture of many music ways, like techno, hip hop, breakbeat, jungle, hardcore...
At this moment it's the perfect sound for my ears and for my brain :) I
started to listen to dnb and I couldn't stop to listen to it. It's like a virus. One day you are
infected with it. You don't know why and when.
From that day d'n'b infected people and it started to spread ithe infection all over the world. It's a chain
reaction.... Revolution!!"
How is the DnB scene in Bosnia? Short story of this music…
SLO : "it doesn't exists...we are trying to raise up a scene here....we'll
see the development in the future."
ADNAN : "Bosnia / Herzegovina is very small country with
a small d'n'b scene. It started to grow faster since the Kontra party year
- 2001 - with Stakka & Skynet, which was also the first and
biggest d'n'b party in Bosnia.
It was the great beginning for us! We wanted to listen to the finest d'n'b DJs and to share those sounds with our friends and d'n'b lovers, and also to improve the bad situation in society."
Who are for you, at this time, the best producers & DJs of the
DnB scene
?
SLO : "We'll dnb had it's golden age in 96/97 as every musical genre it
got it's ups n downs. But dnb continues to be fused and expanded. Although at present time it
isn't at its best, producers from all round the world are emerging and bringing fresh styles in. It's no longer just a UK thing.!
-> Best dnb DJs: -Andy C (well, he is still perfect technical dnb DJ, but his tracklisting in
the past 2 years is 'sucks!')
-Kemal (great tracklisting great mixing and great person)
-Marky (same as Andy C, although Marky was DMC champ. so it's normal he is
technically perfect)
-Paul B (used to have great tracklisting, but seems he is not that good anymore
at it)
- Best producers: So maaaaany of them...BSE, Chris SU&SKC, Paul B&Sta&Subwave, Noisia, Rob F, Kiko, Optiv, Skynet, Stakka, Kemal, Bulletproof, Klute, Optical, Blame, Desimal....just too many of
them....but if I had to pick one producer amongst them it would be
probably be Rob F :-)"
ADNAN : "Probably Andy C is the best technician and showman, but I don't like his tracks and tracklisting.
For me, Kemal has the best tracklistings and also his DJ-ing is excellent, very peaceful and concentrated. "
PEDJA : "The best dJs are Andy C, and Kemal, and the best producers are Kemal ( ex Konflict ), Cause 4 Concern, SKC, Black Sun Empire, Chris SU, Slo(w) and Pedja."
How do you feel the future of the electronic music in the world, and especially
of DnB
?
SLO : "Electronic music is generally in decadence, but lots of
its genres (like dnb) are going deeper underground because of commercialism and exploitation by
the music industry. I hope we (dnb heads) will resist and stay alive in these tough times. Production-wise every year there
are some predictions about what will happen with dnb, One year it's
the Brazilian thing, another year it's liquid funk, and another year
it's good old tekstep ;- etc...Thank God we have so many diverse sub-genres in dnb
(I ain't being sarcastic on this one (laugh))."
ADNAN : "D'n'b is starting to sound more and more faster with crazy, crazy bass and
weaked beats. The tek step d'n'b is close to techno more than ever. Maybe it's going to become a mixture of r'n'b, latino and afro sounds and than disappear
into Liquid - R'n'B - Afro-Latino - D'n'B :)
