From what I see on facebook these days, even the events are poorly attended, which is sad to see.
But tbh the music is so tired. From the 90's to the 2000's it changed a lot, and it was fresh, but it hasn't really changed since, and its old and done. The odd amazing track pops up, like that Al Storm one I like, and I think it will revive, but nope, the next stuff is the same old rehashed vocal shit. Its just not fresh.
How does DnB keep evolving and getting better ? Because they keep it fresh and different.

Not even sure what is going with the current scene.

Well you don't listen to new Hardcore so you wouldn't would you?
I don't listen to UK garage so obviously I have no idea what events/releases etc there are.

I like a lot of the new D&B coming out, especially some of the jump up stuff.
It's a shame Hype doesn't do Kiss FM every week anymore. I sometimes catch Rene LaVice on BBC Radio 1.

Evening all!
Just thought I?d contribute to this thread & say I got here via a search for mc ruff (rip) & impressed this forum / site is still going.. I was another regular on ush.net years back when our legs didn?t ache for no reason.. love the old skool forum - makes you think a bit more about what you write..
For many ravers the scene / the music will never leave them. There?s too many good times & precious memories & the music lives on in all those tapes, videos etc which is why the scene is probably more alive on YouTube than in reality, but hey, who has the stamina & time etc to go out raving like they used to?
Despite the lack of a scene as we knew it, there?s so much history & heritage to the uk rave scene & we must be ready to share that & ensure that this very important genre hardcore / rave is not forgotten. Today I was rocking out to Fantazia the first taste & it still sounds fresh today. We have so much to be proud of & hopefully find innovative ways to keep the scene alive, even if it?s just YouTube channels, vinyl represses, one off events etc. Personally I?d love to open a rave museum / cafe / music store. Youngerfolk now looking to experience more hands on & I think this kind of approach could be a brilliant way to promote rave in all its forms. After all, for many it was much more about the music than going to the raves & taking drugs. Many people don?t know anything about classic rave. Don?t give up, keep the vibe alive but there again don?t expect the past to repeat itself. Now go and check out Hardcore will never die, by Qbass (e type mix)

I actually really like jump up as well as DnB , but the harder side to DnB. I often look for Andy C Sets though, that guy is an awesome DJ.

I don't mind Hard House either. Around 2000 was pretty good.

My current favourite producers in D&B are BassBrothers, Tyke and Ozma. There is loads of good stuff being made. The scene just seems to go from strength to strength.
