WARNING: The following statements are just my opinions. I'm not saying they are fact so try not to get to enraged.
At the risk of a serious internet bashing, I'm going to have to disagree with all of you. I used to rate critical and dispatch but now they have found there respective 'sounds' they are rinsing them for all they are worth. It's like hospital but with better music, as if they have been telling the producers to make tunes that sound almost identical to the last release to feed the current trend instead of be innovative. The recent fad of collaborating with a moody mc and just pumping out a repetitive soulless bassline for them to ramble over is getting old. Dispatch's consistent overuse of distorted two step dnb is grating.
This all boils down to the fact that I love drum patterns and if you listen to most critical/dispatch releases, the drums seem like a shabby afterthought and all the effort has just gone into making the bassline. What happened to the drums in drum and bass!!!!
christ what an absolute bag of shite that was to read, I think youre thinking about it all way way more than anyone else is m8. My policy is simple and I'm doing the same thing I've always done which is signing what I think is great music - I don't tell any single producer 'how to write a track', its something I need to get better at still myself so I'm unlikely to be in a position to tell a producer how to write a tune.... theres nothing more in it than simply if I like it I try to sign it - there is no 'sound' to the label, I think this is just something that appears to be some strange idea you have... Listen to all 3 plates of Octane & DLR's Method in the madness album or even the album itself and tell me each track sounds the same as the last. I think your on your own with this one m8 but each to their own eh > http://soundcloud.com/anttc1/sets/octane-dlr-method-in-the-3/ I'm sorry if I come across as harsh mate but I'm talking straight from the heart. You've claimed it's as if I'm telling the artists they need to make music in a certain way that fits some kind of sound which along with me the artists will also tell you is simply not true. Anyway each to their own you have your own opinion on it.
