Drum & Bass: The Movement (Documentary)

Well worth your time. I watched it with the audio up LOUD and it reminded me how much I just love D&B

I thought there were good bits in there but they skipped through to 2000 in just 20 minutes and then spent the rest of it focussing on the overly commercial side of it.

They talked about moving things forward and yet ignored all the various influences of the late 90s and instead narrowed in on the borderline EDM artists who just churn out the same overloaded tracks over and over.

No mention of V Recordings at all.

Of course it's far too big to cover everything in 90mins, can't possibly fit everything in, but I was generally disappointed with it.
