The primitive description; a drum loop played over a bass line (definition cut down to its utter least).A product of England (mainly London and Bristol) D&B is said to be the most technical form of music of today (with the most complicated drum logarithms/sequences/patterns and loops even heard).
It became big in the 90's with the rave culture.
There are many differing styles, some more slower and ambient forms are common place on tv ad's and commercials, and is often heard in the background.
It is now more known to be a more intellectual form of electronic music thats deep and meaningful compared to other forms of (modern dance) music. The faster (140bpm+) style obviously attracted the club culture, but the more diverse sub-genres can include jazz,reggae,latin,hiphop or samba vibes.
More recent chart D&B success includes DJ Marky & XS, Jaimeson, and Puretone.
The 90's saw the Prodigy with "charly" become a supreme example of DnB.
This genre is still relativley underground, which is probably the best place for it. It can be a rather explicit form of music, that suits the youth of today and their life style.

A drum bowl is weed and tobacco in the same bowl. Usually smoked out of a bong. Causes the smoker to feel a head rush as well as get high from the marijuana. Experienced drum bowl smokers don't get the same head rush that you feel when you first smoke it but still get the effects of the nicotine. "Drum" comes from the brand of tobacco that was first used for this method. The best drum bowls are made when you grind the weed in a grinder and then distribute the tobacco evenly, about 60% marijuana 40% tobaccs. The proper ratio is commonly disputed but it all depends on preference of taste and wanted effects. Any rolling tobacco will work, the higher quality the better.
