Underground music

Get away from the internet and speak with a live, breathing human being. I’m a firm believer your selections will have more soul for it. Nothing like hanging out with a friend and sharing music you like in person.

If you dig on the internet, another technique is to look for information instead of mp3s. Search for interviews, wikipedia, blogs and magazines. They’ll usually mention tons of other interesting and related artists and trends. These tips might be a bit old school, but I bulk listening on the internet usually means wading through tons of crap. Even with great tools like soundcloud and mp3 stores, my brain and ears go numb. Sorting through ideas keeps me inspired.

I’ve got a mate who produces D&B (although more liquid than I normally would use unfortunately) so I can chat to him because I know he has a good knowledge of the D&B world, thanks

I’d also seriously suggest BBC 1Xtra’s shows: D&B shows with Bailey and Crissy Criss, very, in fact, incredibly upfront D&B tunage on both their shows, just expect a long wait for some of the tunes, but really you could do a lot worse than check them out.

I’ve been listening to Friction’s show on radio 1, this has definitely broadened my horizons and has introduced me to new artists, I’ll have to check Bailey’s and Criss Criss’ shows as well thanks
