I met him once in fabric, I’m Irish and I think his mum is Irish and we spent a good part of the night hanging out just randomly in the dance. I’ll never forgot how humble and sound he was for a ‘famous’ DnB personality. Good memories
Love this footage. It’s like we get to experience popping round Fierce’s house to hangout and listen to him chat about his favourite tunes. Love the enthusiasm and the energy 💛
Fierce is one of the REAL great djs out there, none of these social media last minute bandwagon hitting the sync buttons and taking selfies tossers. On vinyl he is untouchable. A bad bad bad boy, trust me.
Durban Poison! I've got this tune! Original pressing-bought it back in in '93 as a 17 year old. Great times! 🙂 Salute Nico! Long time... greets from Cologne!
When mindgames dub drops... Fierce’s reaction is a perfect embodiment of the thing that happens in my brain when i listen to this music. Brings me so much joy, trip out!!!
Just incredible. No U Turn being my number one all time favorite label, seeing these little snippets from the vaults is amazing. Thanks for everything...
It’s an absolute crime that he’s not DJing as much anymore. Same league as Andy C and Randall IMO. I’d actually rather watch Fierce over the aforementioned.
Might agree about Andy C, can't listen to him for the past 15 years (although he and GQ played the absolute best ever set in march 99 in a Black Label party in Paris). Now i feel like he's just puking in my ears ! But watch out what you say about my man Randall, he is a GOD !!
Totally agree mate, so sad to see him not in the scene anymore. If you haven't already seen it: Jay bulletproof has done a recent Podcast with him (2022). It's really good. I hope he returns one day with his dark rollers =)
Love how down to earth he is, a normal chap that loves his beats and bass. Hes right too about later generations pigeon holing tunes into genres/sub genres when they werent even around when the tunes came out.
Fuckin legends. Fierce and Nico.Also. The arrangement of that first record played is what makes it good. Musical but moving. Grown up sounding with the instrumentation and samples. Still relevant sounding for today.
Would seriously love to kick it with Fierce and do exactly what they are doing in this video. Talk about this music we love so much over some smoke and some brews.
Darkcore was a thing. Perhaps reinforced were not originally a darkcore label but they became one and so were labels like legend and brain with artists like bizzy b
Personally I love the geeky sub (genres) talk, it helps you to discuss music and point out various influences and ingridients. You just need to remember it's all very fluid, styles are overlapsing with each other, there are no real boundries, some people get to militant and/or too orthodoxy about all of this :)
@@oskar_oskarewiczthere are some tunes where it’s fair to say it’s open to interpretation, you could call Durban Poison jungle, hardcore or drum and bass and each one would be right lol

Thank you for uploading this video!
Love how he talks about the tunes. Puts a big smile on my face
Excited to see the rest.
That kind of passion is contagious. Full respect to DJ Fierce, Nico, No-U-Turn ❣
This is a tune wish l had this in my record collection
I could watch ten hours of this very happily.
Durban Poison! I've got this tune! Original pressing-bought it back in in '93 as a 17 year old. Great times! 🙂 Salute Nico! Long time... greets from Cologne!
Guy loves it like a lot of us do.. the way he describes the tune
Ya. When I talk this way, my pals tell me to shut and listen, which is sometimes good advice but sometimes they need to be turned on to stuff!
2016 - still sticking 3 papers together = old skool
"You've gotta have a go! God loves a trier."
Wise words right there.

I echo these sentiments. @ No U Turn crew: thank you, your music is amazing. Great videos on the channel ❤
Love this ! Was really good to meet Mr Fierce at The run out the other day ❤.
Big respect. I was state side when all this hit and it’s some of my favorite times of my whole 46 years. When jungle was really at its height.
Not even a dj, and i have almost of quarantine releases on vinyl, wish the best to you guys, and fierce mixing skills are so so huge!!

But watch out what you say about my man Randall, he is a GOD !!
Has him 2 times here in puerto rico and one was Along friction ufffff intense selection and the mixing from fierce too deep.
Totally agree mate, so sad to see him not in the scene anymore. If you haven't already seen it: Jay bulletproof has done a recent Podcast with him (2022). It's really good. I hope he returns one day with his dark rollers =)
Wow. High praise
So much love. You can see that he is real junglist!!! System x /photek is just from another planet. i can feel that tune too, fierce
Fierce and Nico you guys are total legends No U Turn always brings the atmosphere, love this interview
Never been disappointed by this badman on the decks. Release the skankin No U-Turn film already!
Impossible to dislike - he contributed to the scene, you can see the love he has - as we all do.
@11:30, 'Black Grape - Fat Neck Goldie Rmx', also known as 'Rider's Aftermath'
Love how down to earth he is, a normal chap that loves his beats and bass. Hes right too about later generations pigeon holing tunes into genres/sub genres when they werent even around when the tunes came out.
I love this video! So much love for music in it. Thanks for sharing.

Any ideas on the two at the end?
whats the last tune ???
this is jokes looks like it was filmed at 4am after a night out
Photek was the daddy 6:35
... thank fuck other people are as non-fucking-plussed about naming types of music / drum and bass.
It's young cunts that never witnessed it first hand so pigeon holing it makes them feel better.
Personally I love the geeky sub (genres) talk, it helps you to discuss music and point out various influences and ingridients.
You just need to remember it's all very fluid, styles are overlapsing with each other, there are no real boundries, some people get to militant and/or too orthodoxy about all of this :)
@@oskar_oskarewiczthere are some tunes where it’s fair to say it’s open to interpretation, you could call Durban Poison jungle, hardcore or drum and bass and each one would be right lol
