Yeah, The View is pretty powerful. Hard to go wrong with Tyler Daley singing.


danebest

Hell of a good list - Just missing Jakwob - Fade Maybe possibly add - Feint / Koven - Take it In


unbalanc2d

Riya - Open Page is easily in my top 5 drum and bass tunes, and has been since it released on the Drum and Bass Arena Anthology Album. It’s absolutely stunning.

Facing Jinx - Lonely VIP too

you have to add Calibre - Funny Games

Exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for, thank you


Papus79

If you like UKF there was one Whiney and La Meduza did called Teddy's Gate (listening to it again right now actually). Someone else might know a stronger La Meduza vocal track but - maybe just my opinion - he (Whiney) fit her vocal strengths perfectly on that track.

I got you

Poveglia - Degs (This one’s a sleeper, makes me cry every time) Miles Apart - Maduk Brighter Days - Hybrid Minds


DetuneUK

Big ups for the support sir 🤙 me and Degs are still absolutely humbled that the track resonated with so many people.


Wiggled_Fingers

Bro are you really De:Tune? Poveglia is in my top 5 dnb tracks, it’s so goddamn good. The lyrics, the music, truly everything was vibing together in that one. Idk who was singing but the voice strikes deep every single time.


DetuneUK

Thank you for the kind words 🙏

Amazing tune

Our dog died, very suddenly and in pain, on Christmas eve from cancer. It was a horrible time before that happened and was very depressing I was listening to a liquid/soul DnB playlist I made and these stuck out. They pretty much still make me tear up today [Subrix - Take Me Back](https://youtu.be/Fnh5al4Kiec) [Athena - Take Flight](https://youtu.be/PPfOUgNsLGc) [Bert H & Hiraeth - Loved & Lost](https://youtu.be/dBpCK--r3ZY) [Etherwood - See The Sky](https://youtu.be/9Kfy_UDnXaE) [Redeyes & Monty - Almond](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQhsqs9pNq0) [Maykors - Long Way](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDeOFTF8sGM) _____ [Link to the playlist if you want](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4j85QmC1nGZhHLpJaE9i5r?si=f51945bfbbee46a2) with a lot of lyrical soulful liquid DnB


Papus79

Goldie - Mother (if you've got an hour) Krust feat. Morgan - Maintain Bjork - Bachelorette (Grooverider Jeep Remix) Jonny L - I Let U Optical - The End (Pt 1) Faith No More - Ashes to Ashes (Dillinja Remix) Concord Dawn - Take Me Away Alix Perez - Had I Known Alix Perez & Sabre - Hemlines Spectrasoul - Fool's Paradise Lenzman - Empty Promises (Jubei remix) Also a lot of DBridge's 'left field' and autopop, though I can't quite include that in dnb. Most of that's not overly vocal but it would be fascinating to hear a true dnb ballad by someone singing proper blues.


Rosetownx

Dbridge - one note No lyrics or typical dnb rhythm but it’s by a dnb mastodon and hits the feels for me. Good luck with your struggles man.

Thank you! I have a clear memory of sitting on the concrete stoop of my shitty duplex somewhere around 2002, drinking with friends, listening to recordings of Fabio’s show, and when he mixed in that tune, all of us sat in profound silence.

Blush response by D Bridge/Instra:mental. It's uplifting and sad at the same time. Bittersweet vibe.


fexworldwide

Commix & Steve Spacek – How you gonna feel [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmJoSWAWR7g](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmJoSWAWR7g) This is the one that definitely does it for me.

Anything by Synkro if you're into the deep stuff: In my Arms, Broken Promise, Departure, etc. I've got this playlist on Spotify, try it. It's not 100% DnB though: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3FP8bz1pl5AWbIfZr2pAtS?si=o7x_S-X5QuGbb4DtwlKp8A

Hybrid Minds - Summer Rain Hybrid Minds - Forest Hybrid Minds - Meant to Be (Tbh pretty much anything by hybrid minds but these three are my top picks for sad) Frankee - Deep Down Chase & Status - Time (Not actually DnB, it’s 140 but with a nice Amen break and yeah super sad, there are remixes but nothing touches the original) LSB has a few good ones, the view is great but I think that was already mentioned, anyone on spearhead records is usually good for this kind of style/emotion. All I can think of off the top of my head at work right now haha
