Musical Roots Part 1

We put together this post to pay homage to a major part of our musical roots - drum & bass. Each one of us came up playing jungle records on vinyl in dark, dingy clubs and warehouses. This is a short list of some of our favorite tunes of all time. Listening back now it's interesting to hear how it influenced what we do now. 

Feel free to post us your favorites in the comments. We will keep this updated.
