Current Value leaves me without recourse to any other drum and bass even close to his level.
Perfection is awful like that. Master crafter, I salute you.

He is unstoppable right now. For the past few years he is pushing strong neurofunk and neurotech flavored sound which is recently captured attention of such major labels as Bad Taste, Blackout NL, Invisible and even Critical Recordings.
Some say his production lacks good ideas right now and became just another dribble in endless neuro-stream. Many believe he was at his best in "dark rain" years and willing to hear more tracks in this vein in near future. In Current Value's case nothing happens for no reason and goes in the same circle with different algorithm. If you look closer at his recent works he's just reinvents his very old and less known sound from "In A Far Future" and "Beyond Digits" and does that precisely new for listener. Who knows what vision will be next on his schedule and I'm eager to hear everything from this mastermind. Maybe someday we will hear tracks like "Drill", "Dark Rain", "Faith" in a new wrapper because everything new is well forgotten old. :)

This man has been going strong and pushing limits within the drum n bass community for a decade now. The early Position Chrome material was phenominal with arguably some of the most insanely technical programming of its time...perhaps too technical to gain a footing with more dancefloor-minded DJs, which led to his slower trickle of releases on various smaller labels after Chrome moved towards pushing simple dancefloor tunes. His work has moved away from the haunted spacestation soundtracks to a more visceral style of dancefloor smashers, but has lost none of the extreme technical work that is his signature. It's great to see his resurgence in the past year with releases on UK and US labels such as Obscene, Tech Itch and Soothsayer bringing his sound to a newer audience that may not have followed the German dnb scene.
