I'm interested to hear people's contributions on artist who have dramatically changed their style of production within drum and bass. Not just evolved with the times over the years like Dillinja for example, or someone like Stray who you can't pin down, or others like Zinc or Clipz who went on to produce crack house or whatever. Examples:
Rockwell
All his glitchy clicky stuff like his Noir and Aria EPs etc that made people sit up and notice him, compared to Chorus Of Disapproval and User (which doesn't sound like any of his previous stuff)
Hazard
Talk Like A Girl and Hold It etc compared to Blackout and Death Sport. Escape said he upgraded his 'drums' or equipment, for the better by the sounds of things as Ulterior Motive and Kasra were playing Proteus and Time Tripping
Audio
All his old stuff on Freak Recs, then his spell on Virus with Headroom etc to all his resent 'curse of Ram Records' stuff.
Calyx and Teebee
Ditto the Ram statement above
Chase and Status
From their Renegade Hardware days with Glitch and the Ten Tonne EP, to an alright spell at Ram to be honest and beyond
Sensa and Haste / Hybrid Minds
From their jump up roots as the former to the liquid stylings of the latter. Clearly saw more profit in a different style, and who would blame them
Be interested to hear other people's opinions
