Drum and Bass / Jungle - Mid 90's

[Dizeee]

Does anyone on here have any interest in this?

I spent my childhood growing up to underground pirate radio stations and thanks to youtube have managed to collate most of my old cache.

I don't have much interest in commercial / cheese but have compiled a careful CD collection over the last 3 years of proper quality tunes. Many are extremely rare.

If so I am happy to share some links on here.

[Dizeee]

Just posted on the other thread re this, having done so and without wishing to fill that one with links, I will post some below for those that are interested. These are different to the others I posted. Please post up if you enjoy as I am keen to start a sharing thread, where we can all post up finds. I am bursting with links and tunes so this is just a drip feed for me...

Some of my memorable ones:

Tech Itch - Rare Darkside Amen - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O3j69ki570

Frontline 96 / Incredible Intelli-Amen - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSgiIWbeQiQ

Hard Leaders - hidden gem - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njD_Zq3pAwI



Looking forward to sharing more if poss...

I was playing out every week during this era, and was buying tunes every week too, also got tons of promos, some on mailing lists of big labels.
If you have unknown tunes you still need naming I can probably help
I sold my tunes in 2004, but still have the entire collection as mp3s which I know mix just for enjoyment at home via serato and some trusty Technics

[djdestiny]

Right, Ive fired up my laptop so I can post some tunes for you

I'll try to pick out some of the more obscure ones that I used to love (still do!) from back in the day

That'll do for now, I could sit here all day!

If you drop me a PM I'll reply with a list of all the tunes Ive got, so you can see if there are any you're after

[Dizeee]

Sounds good. There is a tune ID I currently have up on youtube which I will be impressed if you can help with, however I think it is a one off so may not be something you have heard...

[Dizeee]

I'm going to go over your links later with a glass of wine, I will let you know if there are any there I haven't heard.

[djdestiny]

Ive heard it before, but not sure what it is. Shame its got no vocals, that makes it a lot easier to solve!

[Dizeee]

On the same set there was a tune that had the vocals, males, going "falling down"..."down"... then jus before the drop it goes "falling" then boom. The drop is like a wavey bass note, and it's not an amen just a jump up intelligent style beat. Need to find that too...

[djdestiny]

Its probably G Money - Falling

This is the correct tune, but its been titled wrongly as the other side by whoever uploaded it

[Dizeee]

Yes that's the one, awesome thanks been after it a while. I can see you being useful.

The other one I am desperate for and I forget the name although did find out recently is another 96 one. Just before the drop a bloke goes "control" then it is extended out "cooonnnttttrrrooolll" before another wavey bassline, but it is jump up. As I couldnt find it on youtube I gave up looking and forgot the name - I'll see if I can find it.

[djdestiny]

The only one that comes straight to mind is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lF9z4q6p8QE but probably not it?!

[Dizeee]

No it starts off with what sounds like screaming which loops over a dark hardstep beat. Then just before the drop it goes totally silent, and the bloke goes "control...(pause) control....(pause)then a slightly echoed / electrified ccooooonntttrrooollll" then it drops. It's a bit of a weak and wooly drop but I love the intro.

Ill try and dig out what the name of it was - its a 95/96 one and its not a familiar name.

No my post is too old to find on the d and b forum.

Heres another for you, whats the one Kenny Ken used to drop all the time "Think.... Like a.... Killer"....boooom

[Dizeee]

2 tunes into your list above and haven't heard either so it's looking good! Going to be a great evening on the PC. Luckily I have a Bose Companion system so playing these tunes are awesome, they sound better through my PC than they did back in the day, although my neighbours won't thank me.

[djdestiny]

I think it will be L.J. High ‎– Killer, but its not on youtube to check

if you fancy a night in listening to tunes, check my channel, it will keep you busy for hours!

Oh your Mwebster, I'm already subscribed. You must have seen loads of my comments on videos already.

[Dizeee]

Amazingly as I click on your 3rd link, I realise that the tune I am speaking of above was on Runninz... what a co-incidence.

[djdestiny]

Ah yeah, Ive seen your comments

That sounds like Badass but I thought everyone knew that track, so maybe not...
