I’ve played double bass for 20 years (this tune partly influenced my decision to get one) - I play some fairly complex jazz runs and still find this a bugger to play!
JFC how am I only seeing this today??? I'm a die hard junglist, Roni Size et al was my absolute shit back in the day. Live DnB will always captivate my soul.
Saw a documentary (?) which showed them all playing in a kitchen or something... bass player sat on the counter... never been able to find it since. Best thing I'd ever seen.
This is the pinnacle of DnB in the world. Playing it live and sounding unbelievable, on a medium that EVERYONE can see. You didn't have to go to a rave to hear this, it was on BBC!
I saw Roni Size in front of about 40 people whilst doing sound checks at the Reading festival in 97 or 98 ( too stoned at the time to remember years!). Coolest man alive; and the dance tent rocked later during the performance.
Was fortunate enough to see them on this tour in Toronto back in the day. Unbelievable performance, leagues ahead of everyone and the crew were true pioneers. Great days!
What a track. Britain really does produce some talent. Huge shout from the US. Loving these guys and also other various UK electronica based acts like Faithless, Burial, Chemical Brothers, FSOL, UNKLE, Underworld, Massive Attack, Leftfield, Stereo Mcs, The Streets, Goldie, Sleaford Mods, The Bug, ALLFLAWS
Never stopped blasting D&B. Not baking as much as I used too but that's ok. Break beats (and beats in general) are my daily high. I'm actually hear now looking for some old school jams to add to my library. The rhythm never stops!
Remember this was my favourite cd listening in college, thought yer man toasting was the actual shit. Beautiful time thanks Ronnie 🙏 apologies about the additional n. 😆
Check the original version and understand this is another planet.Riff ,on time ,off time , stop, and begin again , these guys could pour out a bag of marbles and it would sound like music.
It lives, the bass is the heartbeat that it gives When we apply the brakes, there'll be no skids Just more elements to consider as we glide Dimensions and the measurements and the evidence you will find
0:58 that was what we called a "computer monitor" , in the ancient dreamtime of music . The Elders of the tribe used to connect their "desktop computers" to it . 1:22 Real, it was kept.
That's what was so great about 90s electronic acts. The prodigy chemical brothers rabbit in the moon portishead massive attack underworld dubtribe electric skychurch squarepusher aphex twin. Roni size putting Bristol on the map and doing live dnb is a cornerstone of drum n bass history. The band reprezent and their live show is a part of that history.

How nobody is praising the bass player to no end is astonishing! He kept up that mad riff for so long!!!
i thought the bass sounded off at the start

@@andrewmaine2473 was gonna say. something on my bucket list yet.
Hey, I'm praising the bass player a lot! Like everyone should...
I know right!?!?!

this is Jungle not DnB
@@alexescapista7720 Jungle is DnB. Jungle might have been first but the entire genre is DnB.
I love a live drummer doing a dnb beat. Brings so much depth.
adds a signature that electronic drums can't..
It's so good, the lil tom hits is just 👌
Have you checked Jojo Mayer with his band Nerve, top notch
Will never forget the day live Drum and Bass was played and broadcast on BBC2 to millions of people and totally smashed it. Historic moment!
elninolondres what year was this? Looks about 1999?
@@lolaa6971 1997 i think
This was back in 1997. I still have this recorded on VHS.
still one of the coolest performances in existence
2:10 - love it when the break is layered over the drumming. beautiful!
Yea
one of the best tunes ever ,still fresh and new today and forever ,roni size uk crew
still fresh in 2022

Great song from a great album.
Glad he did it with real percussion just for the Art of it.
this album was so proper when it dropped. from tthe stand-up bass to the drums of clive deamer from Portishead
This is one of the first electronic songs I went crazy for. I first heard it on MTVs Amp. Back when they actually played music.
Exactly where I fell in love with this tune as well. Went crazy on jungle from there.
Date of release?
@@sweetswissy5761 around '97

Roni Size was a very clever man and a true pioneer of intelligent drum n bass. Great shit...
Thumbs up for those who used to get BAKED on quality weed and listen to this loud back in the day...
I get you son ;)
Still happening to this very performance man!
Hash back then brother.
Still here, still high ;-)

bass player where sick as fuck,, and girl smashed it, all respect Roni
Wow never seen this before. This is what you call real drum and bass haha
Yeah that bass player keeps the whole thing going. My daughter plays the same😘btw that's a classic
Clive is such an incredible drummer
Love that this live set is all real, organic. I never got wasted, but I did crank this in my cars in the later 90's.
Shame .....wasted is the best way to really hear it man.....
He did this set with 2 drummers live at Industry in Toronto BLEW MY MIND never seen anyone drum that fast before
2 drummers both doing dnb? wow
Same here, I was at that show and still talk about it every chance I get. Killer night, incredible performance.
Respect 2 Ronnie from my hometown Bristol.
Nothing short of an exhibition of pure raw talent! Take notes kids, no auto-tune mumble bullshit here, this is real music!
It's gotten even worse since your comment 2 yrs ago!
@@dermymoto society is doomed
It still makes my my spine tingle all theses year after !
Still bumpin 2019 sick sick at live performance once again, come back roni to blow their minds again 🤯😲😄🤘
the drummer's Clive Deamer. he's touring as the second drummer with Radiohead at the moment. quality musician
been like 20 years since saw this live....good to know its Timeless, got vinyl locked in the vault.
I love going back to this.....
Beamed into Glastonbury dance tent 1997. We all got beamed up that night 😉
Love this video. Lol always nice to spot an Amiga and some big ass monitors in the wild too.
Loved this back in the day, still do 2020. The UK at it's best.
Absoloutly lethal from the Bristol massive
Did not know R size were from Bristol loved them for years but to us scotch folks your English chaps
Still lethal ⚡️
portishead drummer
love the music & the old computers.... lol
I use to cruise around town during thunderstorms at night, with this song on repeat for hours..
Remember this was my favourite cd listening in college, thought yer man toasting was the actual shit. Beautiful time thanks Ronnie 🙏 apologies about the additional n. 😆
Sweet CRT monitor!!
Saw that
My god this takes me back, flying around in my mk1 golf gti cabio back in 90s love it
Me too..in my 16v scirroco..😂
Clive deemer slappping the heavens out of that kit
This is the song that got me hooked on DnB for over 25 years.
Love the old computer now it can be done all on one laptop classic tune thou.
Great find. Thanks for clean transfer too... aiding some SERIOUS old fart reminiscing.
this is such a good watch. Subtle smile by Roni at the end, inside buzzing like FCUK
Just love it so much, bought the cd in 98 and even better to hear the version now in 2019:)
Drummer from Portishead?
Yes i think is Clive Deamer from Portishead
Still the best. 2023 here
Still drive around blasting this one. 😮💨💞
Holy crap! Amazing to see this performed love. Now I have to Google Roni Size tour dates.
I can't believe they used to actually MAKE electronic music. David Guetta -- did you see this?!
Nah, he's too busy ending racism.
drum n bass!
This is mind-blowing. Roni is musical genius.
way past love this!
Taped this whole session on VHS
Ah man this track live takes me back this is when music began
still in 2024 shit is fire
Love this whole album ❤
Bass player got fingers of steel!
such a sick MC, would've loved to see this live
this makes me smile:)
damn everything about this is so early 00s
But it was the late 90s! =D
I guess that's just them being ahead of their time...
The best version of this one, period.
I have smile so large.
yessss same:))

This still feel like the future but it must be 25+ years old. The whole album is insanely good
Respect roni size featuring reprazent wicked band.😀👍❤!fk
Check the original version and understand this is another planet.Riff ,on time ,off time , stop, and begin again , these guys could pour out a bag of marbles and it would sound like music.

This is just... awesome.

Nice remember watchin it
Meeeeooooowwww!!!!
GENIUS!!!!
It lives, the bass is the heartbeat that it gives
When we apply the brakes, there'll be no skids
Just more elements to consider as we glide
Dimensions and the measurements and the evidence you will find
why i can't like this video 1000x times ?!
My god this bangs. Why didnt i get born like 15 years earlier ffs
0:58 that was what we called a "computer monitor" , in the ancient dreamtime of music . The Elders of the tribe used to connect their "desktop computers" to it . 1:22
Real, it was kept.
TOP SHELF , MATE !!
I don't get why you would perform this live, but kudos for going for it anyway.
because thats how it was written and recorded
That's what was so great about 90s electronic acts. The prodigy chemical brothers rabbit in the moon portishead massive attack underworld dubtribe electric skychurch squarepusher aphex twin.

Clive Deamer made this possible!!! Fantastic drummer
Hello from 2020
Аж мурашки по коже )) Очень сильно
This is brilliant.
Does anyone know where I can get the drum sheet music to this song?
Nobukazu Takemura did such a god remix of this song!
Bloody Clever, Top Banana )
Memorables años 90s. Sonido oscuro y místico. Maestros
