Ed Rush & Optical

Posted by: garyi on 05 July 2003

I got Wormhole the other week and find this album excellent. Really dark and I would guess falling into the techno catagory.


But alas I am not sure, what style of music is this, and what else in this style is out there?

Cheers


Deep down and dirty, get it

Gary,

Main genre Drum & bass,
Sub genre Tech-Step.

Ed Rush & Optical are brilliant, I buy everything they release and remix.

Albums :

Torque
Wormhole
The Creeps
The Original Doctor Shade

Many many singles & many many many remixes.

I look through my archives and pick out the best ones to recommend.

If you like them, also try Dom & Roland, Matrix, Lemon D, and the current kings of dark Bad Company.

You can watch interviews with them on Drum & Bass Arena TV.

Warning! Optical has a bushy bread, but this can be forgiven in the circumstances.

Gary,

Did you get this after hearing it at mine the other week, I guess you must have cos it was the only drum and bass thing I played.

Yeah it's very good. In my clubbing days when Ed Rush DJ'ed he was excellent. Pretty dark stuff. If you like this you maybe should try some Photek (also goes by the alias Special Forces). Also get the 'Prototype Years' compilation by Grooverider.
