Remarkably, the history of drum ‘n’ bass can now be traced back 20 years. To celebrate this landmark, here’s a list of 20 DnB classics, one for each year from 1989 onwards.

We kick off with The Black Dog’s Virtual, which was one of the first records to combine breakbeats, techno synths and big basslines in a recognisably DnB-like fashion. What’s more, it still sounds fresh today.
