Roni Size chats to I Like Music

Roni Size/Reprazent's New Forms was a benchmark for not just the drum 'n' bass genre that it leapt from, but for all types of electronic music. Released a decade ago in 1997, the 10th anniversary brings a re-edit of this groundbreaking album, a new single and a tour.

I Like Music caught up with Roni Size to talk about New Forms, Drum 'n' Bass and playing gigs in caves.

"I Like Music because… it's close to my heart." RONI SIZE

ILM: Your New Forms album was a benchmark for drum 'n' bass and all types of electronic music. It's the 10 anniversary of this album so you've brought out a re-edit so that people like me can remember back in the day and appreciate what you did with technology back then, but so a new generation can also see what's possible now…?

RONI: It was a great time back then. It was this new wave of producer DJs - people who were making the music and playing the music. It was all experimental at the time, I know that' a bit of a cliché, but it really was. We'd go to the studio, we'd make the music and then the same night, we'd play the music and find out what worked and didn't work.
