I'm a hip-hop, house, & downtempo dj and have begun to like drum & bass more and more. Unfortunately, the few online record stores I frequent don't stock drum & bass. I was wondering if someone could recommend some good labels, artists or online stores (wax or digital) for jazzy/deep drum & bass. I like some of the stuff Big Bud has done, other than that I don't really know much.Thanks.

For the old stuff this is really the place to start, Fabio's label was ruling the jazzy drum&bass game for a while in the nineties.
Hospital records are worth checking out as well.
Do people still buy d&b? I thought it died out in about 2000
good looking had some pretty sick comps.. the earth comps for the straight d&b, and the soul food comps for more earthy/electrified manic-jazz/funk
drewn, dood chime in. i kinda miss that dolce gabana knock off tee of yours. eGay that shaite. you could probaly get some sick underworld 12"s in return.
this is a great start mint
