Drum and Bass / Jungle - Mid 90's

[Random_Person]

Then we move on to when it got really serious for me. Really, really started to wake up to how important the sound was with tunes like these.

The following 2 are game changers for me. The first was every mixers nightmare - but, whatever, mind blowing. The second, was just pure perfection. Both of these tunes were rarely heard but they opened the appetite for me and really engaged me - hooked me, and blew me away. It was the start of all the effort to really immerse myself in the scene. Sound as good today as in 96.

The second, is probably the all time fave ever for me, and really marks a point in my life. Blown away.

Taking a breather from the deepness, here is a tune in 97 I bought on vinyl, which I have also shortlisted.

Just different, refreshing and more about the bass and build. V different and a quick ad break if you like. What made this tune for me was the break. Go to 04:20 and just listen to the madness. I love it - interested to hear whether just me. Proper madness but also focussed.

And we return, via a new wave of emotion:

Feel like I reached a natural pause - not sure how many are checking these tunes out, but enjoying my own little journey into my files... please just tip a hat if interested and I will continue the journey another eve.... I have bookmarked my progress!

Keep em coming! I love reading how others saw the scene grow in their own way, just as it did for me.

You reminded of this, some of the early Elements of noise tunes on SOUR were so heavy!

Just checking the bookmark - Tolepeleu. Nice.

Leads me nicely onto this. Will post beneath, nothing else needs saying with this tune.

What I love about this track is that both are epic - and very similar. Over the years it has caused a lot of online squabbles.

Being me, and the authority that I am confident to say I am on the topic, I can simplify.

There is the original, and the remix. The remix is more of a re-fix, and is identified in numerous ways. Suffice to say the re fix has the wobbly bass, the original doesn't. I love both. The original seems to have vanished, but the wobbly and latest version:

That album was so pivotal and relevant to me. Still is. I'm gonna post some more!

I have gone off on a tangent, I still have the original bookmark. But its all good to post - and re living this album tonight is just what I need.

I posted the link to the entire album above - do play it - its amazing,

Which leads me onto my next tangent. We need to discuss this:

[Random_Person]

Think it came out in around 95 - as it was the first ever CD I bought to the best of my knowledge. But - it was a real gem.

Some from this 4 CD box set:
