well, third eye foundation is definitley not dance music. he uses a lot
of eerie samples (i.e. door hinges, sirens, screams) and throws them over
jungle breaks. He comes from that bristol school of new sensations such
as flying saucer attack, amp, and a few others of the same ilk. he uses a
lot more percussion than his peers though.

as for tastes, you are right about people here having a wide variety. I
would have to say mine are a lot different than most people on this list.
For one thing, I listen to jamiroquai only every once in a while, have
never heard the brand new heavies, and though I enjoy jazz jazz, I dont
really listen to a whole lot of the newer greyboy/groove collective style
(though I hear it every once in a while).

I am on this list for the drum n bass side of things, as well as the hip
hop. I like the guys who experiment big time in both genres. the
aforementioned dnb guys, as well as hip hop artists like shadow, spooky,
vadim, etc etc.

Id go into detail, but I just realized I am late for work.
