Best US DnB album EVER.......2004-12-25

I know it sounds like an overstatement, but damn, Dara straight up delivered with this album.
The beats have a rough and tumble minimal quality that mix perfectly with the mysteriously soulful edges.
Each song holds it own perfectly, with Kah and Discipline standing out as the strongest of the pack.
This album represents a time and place for DnB in America. Right before the tech step boom, right after the amen jungle craze.
The funk and soul on this album are thick, and I highly suggest it for anyone interested in the history of 1990s DnB.

For jungle and d'n'b fans only I suppose..........2000-01-15

I bought this album in hopes of discovering further venues of electronic music, this one to hopefully understand and gain interest in drum & bass. Unfortunately, it only turned me further away from the form in the longrun.

Rinsimus Maximus, for the most part, lacks in content and style. There are a few great gems on here, though, such as Kah and RNA (I've been hearing that breakbeat from RNA in lots of commercials and advertisements recently!)--in fact the first four songs aren't too bad and rather quite listenable. Jade is especially sexy and intruiging.

Though, after that, it becomes somewhat tiresome unless you enjoy the repetitive minimalistic low-budget 12-minute endless ditties of Plastikman (though while Richie Hawtin doesn't do drum & bass [as far as i know] I feel it's a feasible comparison) or other similar artists.

It's hard to take this album seriously as a whole, it seems like he gave up on making good rhythms and melodies after RNA and focused more on the screwy, junglistic beats with a few dabs of repetitive, aimless samples and filtered+resonated synthesizers to keep it breathing. But then again, isn't that what some believe drum & bass is all about? I know there are more intelligent interpretations of this genre out there, I just haven't found it yet.

As someone who's more accustomed to more orthodox or surrealistic forms of electronic music I give it 3 stars [for the four really great tracks that introduce the album], but would be a definate recommended buy for all drum'n'bassheads out there.
