Looking for atmosphere

Looking for atmosphere

Hey guys and gals, i’m looking for artist and track suggestions for some atmosphere Dnb. I really dig Bukem’s style, but i’ll be damned if i know the name or artist of half his tracks. I’ve looked into Mathematics, Empress, and a few Aphex Twins tracks so I’m pretty much open to anything with a break at 160-200 bpm that still remains chill and controlled. Thanks much!

Hey Damien,

Check out the tracklists of his mix compilation CDs:
The Rebirth
Earth - Volume One
Earth - Volume Two
Earth - Volume Three

Anyways, Discogs is always a good friend of mine. :wink:
Click for 20 discogs pages of LTJ Bukem results.

thanks tekki. I’ll check em out when i’m out of the office and on my own rig.

heh my knowledge of atmospheric dnb is shocking. cept the upbeats, they have spacey trippy atmospheric shit on their albums, check “nobodys out there” and theyre self titled album. the song “lobster” is one of the best, theres also “wayhey” , “wayhey contd” , and “hello” on the self titled album.
nobodys out there is mostly a strange atmospheric album with a few bangers, most of those tracks are kickass :stuck_out_tongue:

Anytime man! :smiley:

Omni Trio is awesome too.

make sure to check out WISP pretty decent chill out with a hint of aphex twin!!!

oh and of course i forgot BURIAL - untrue …thats one of my favourite chill albums (more dub than bass but still has some dnb beats)!

my personal preference includes work of: Blu Mar Ten, Seba, Shapeshifter, MArcus Intalex, Future Engineers and last but not least Funky Technician

but you must look realy well for atmospherics even within those producers.

shapeshifter is chur!
try the song “skateland killa”
ooo also salmonella dub-nusteppa and theres several other dubbed out dnb track from them

If it’s LTJ Bukem and intelligent d&b you want, then Logical Progression was the sh!t. Those albums were classic. Stopped releasing them years ago but still great.

Lots of atmospheric d&b still gets made, it’s not all the industrial bollox.
Check out Blame, London Elektricity, Muffler, Electrosoul System.

Oh yeah and Timeless by Goldie. How could anyone overlook that. Oh and Colours by Adam F. And High Contrast.

Oh and why we are here: my theory of what the best intelligent d&b should feel like:

It should feel like sitting in a train, looking out of a window. If you look downwards you can see the train tracks skittling by in a percussive blur of motion. If you look upwards, you can see trees skimming serenely past, framed against the sky.

And that my friends, is what great d&b should feel like. That is all.

Amen.

Timeless by Goldie is possibly the best DnB album ever… nothing will ever come close. Basically single handedly invented intelligent dnb…

Innercity Life is fucking godlike.

Heres a few classics;

Goldie
Lynx < he is the fkn man!
Alex Reece (Pulp Fiction is sic!)
DJ Zinc
DJ Red
DJ Die
Roni Size
