First glance: looking good!

awesome, just awesome. boh! edit: merchandise link in OP doesn't work

I see, damn! I must say I haven't seen a lot of those, I might just leave them be because trying to find them all would require me to skip through 800 labels or so. Indeed: at the first count there's about 800 dnb labels with 5 or more releases in the database, out of 4500..

Are you sure Big Orange only has one release? There's more labels in the list that don't have (full) information on 5 or more records, for example: International Breakbeat Inc and Sound Clash.

no, I tried to exclude happy hardcore but I have probably mistaken a few happy hardcore labels for jungle labels. I just listened again to a few kniteforce tunes and I guess I could have rated these as jungle so please correct me wherever I did that. I'd like to include any labels that made a reasonably firm transition to jungle though.

well as a few of you predicted the hardest part was to draw a border between hardcore and jungle/drum 'n bass. I have tried to use a combination of release dates and listening to the music when available. Sometimes it's quite hard indeed but I think I got a pretty decent guess on avarage but please do tell me if you think otherwise for every specific case!!!! After listening to youtube tracks all day it's sometimes not very easy to stay 100% consistent. :biggrin: And I'd say your guess is better than mine too.

*Pant* Ok I'm about done. Thanks for helping. I'm not 100% sure I got them all right, there's a lot I'm not really sure about but I do have a faint idea of. I don't think I'll keep looking anymore, I'll just use the data I got now because I need to finish this thesis! here's the list, please don't edit but if there's some major faults just let me know: Name DnB .shadybrain Records yes 1 Man Army Records no 100% Recordings no 100% Records yes 1210 Recordings yes 13 Music yes 2 Bob Sounds yes 2 Fresh yes 2000 Black no 21 Records no 21st Century no 23rd Precinct Recordings no 24 Karat yes 24 Seven Recordings yes 2FX Records no 3 Stripe no 3.5 Records no 31 Records yes 380 Records no 3D Mode Recordings yes 3rd Angle Productions yes 3rd Eye yes 3rd Party no 4 The Floor yes? 4th & Broadway no 5HQ Recordings yes 679 Recordings no 720 Degrees yes 777 no 786 Approved no 80 Aum Records no A & M Records no A New Dawn yes A-KO yes A.R.M.Y.

Basswerk Files Basswerk Limited Basswerk Records So Basswerk Records would be a dnb label while Basswerk Files isn't, anyway Basswerk Files is DD only which I'm not using at all. Basswerk Limited only has one release, no idea what it is though. edit: forgot to delete the "bootleg" label, same goes for "white".

well I wouldn't say "not helping", I wasn't exactly hoping someone would have the perfect answer. I'm very much interested in those magazines by the way, if I have some time left I'll try to come over if you're ok with that. Anyway, I think we have a decent cohorent look on what we can count as jungle/dnb and what not. We'll keep discussing the "grey areas". Let's try the labels starting with "a" through "c": A & M Records - no, major label A New Dawn yes (dutch) A-KO yes A.R.M.Y. Bullet Records no A.R.M.Y. Records no A.R.S.

ah ok let's see what we can do with the "tough calls". Personally I have no idea what their releases sound like but that doesn't really matter (although I'm listening to your jump up mix which has one 24 Karat tune to see what we're talking about). We'll have to work something out so we can file these "though calls" under a certain genre but first I need some clarifications. I got into dnb somewhere in '97 I think so I don't know much about the preceding stuff. I've read All Crews so that's what I've got to work with. First of all there's the confusion about the term "hardcore". It's the house music of the rave days, out of which jungle/dnb evolved, right? It's got nothing (or not much) to do with the stuff we call hardcore over here in the Netherlands (which I've listed as "gabba"). I'm guessing the major trouble we face is making a distinction between that hardcore and early jungle/dnb. Please correct me if & where I'm wrong. How about: anything released before the '90s doesn't fit in, anything without breakbeats doesn't fit in, do we need to set a certain bpm? or a jungle/dnb feel? something else: I use jungle and dnb as one and the same thing, I know you could make a distinction (or not) but I'd like to include as much as possible. Gosh this is hard hehe, I'll wait to see what you guys got to say, I'm getting lost in this jungle (sry for that). edit: Well that 24karat tune was dnb to me, as is this System X tune on 3rd Eye. Imho of course. edit2: discogs has both of those listed as dnb btw, just sayin'... :smile: edit3: Listening to one of your hardcore mixes haste, and I see it's even more complicated.
