[Part 3 of a five part series where I’ll go chronologically thru every full-length single-artist dnb LP from 95-99 that I can find. Only including records where a majority of tracks are basically within the genre and new material. No remix albums, No VA compilations, No trip hop records with one dnb track, etc.]
With the first commercial peak of the genre, 97 will have the most spots on this list. Majorly influential classics include Roni Size - New Forms, Adam F - Colours, and Photek - Modus Operandi. Arcon 2, Jonny L, Panacea and Fauna Flash demonstrate the turn towards darker, edgier styles that had been taking place on dancefloors. Dnb goes global as Italy, Germany, Brazil, US, and Japan are represented in this list.
personal favorite: Boymerang - Balance of the Force
underrated/lesser known pick: Kid Loops - TimeQuake
one standout track: DJ Soul Slinger - Chega de Saudade
