@@langoblian it has a side step feature but it was slow with insane cooldown so there was no reason to use it. technically that makes it 3D but in any matches or playthroughs you watch it plays out very much as a 2.5D.
That transition from Some Kinds of Love to Blame @ 1:58:19 not only gave me immense nostalgia but that was the craziest transition I've had the pleasure of hearing in a LONG time. GG's bro
90s DnB recipe: - Amen break at 170-200 BPM - Two note bassline. Whole notes of a pure sine wave. Lower frequency is better - 3 note melody, usually with a brightness pad, generally quarter or half notes - Optional female vocalist singing harmony or a single word over and over
in Amtrak by Trace, the vocal sample perfectly summarizes jungle/hardcore breakbeat in all its manifestations - "Here's a group trying to accomplish one thing, that is, to get to the future!", which basically corresponds to Mark Fisher's Hauntology in music.
Jungle is the ultimate soundtrack for when you're trying to finish a project while hopelessly sleep-deprived. Fast-paced and varied enough to keep you aware, but not so chaotic or loud that it monopolizes your few active brain cells.
Ape Escape OST was by Soichi Terada, incredible composer and absolute legend of a bloke. You can check his work too, maybe starting from his Sumo Jungle EP. Oh, and more important, i'd recommend you see him live if you get the chance
@@maxmzln3407wow, thnks for the info, just turned on Sumo Jungle. i have yet to gone down the deep rabbit hole of 90s dnb producers showcsed in PS1 nd PS2 games
not only are both of these mixes filled with brilliant jungle music, they're also masterfully mixed. well done and thank you for your passion! I hope you know you will be remembered for this.
Ahh i still remember that era as a teen. Electronic music that had cosmic, spiritual, new agey, ethnic, and jazzy sounds, giving that utopian and exotic feeling. Unfortunately it lost it afterwards, but thankfully we still get these mixes.
I play this in the store when its not my manager opening. Genuinely sounds so much better than the radio and you can tell on the other employees too. This shit is just way too hard
So glad someone bothered to do this. The mid 90's were the era of jungle/ drum & bass and there were so many game soundtracks featuring them. These mixes make these tunes available to the wider public all in one tidy mix. Great stuff.
Love that Dark Ruins got somewhat of a remix in Ape Escape 3 as Mount Amazing Part 2. Playing Ape Escape 3 then 1 and realizing the similarities was really cool. Bomb soundtrack in all three games.
I put this mix on as something to have in the background while I blasted through a last minute project I had procrastinated on waaay too long. For whatever reason, this ended up putting me in the most intense focus mode I've ever experienced. What should have taken days was accomplished in a matter of hours, thank you
Huge thank you to everyone for the kind words. This has been a year long passion project, and is only the first snippet of the full Playstation jungle mix. I'm releasing the next parts over the coming months. Appreciate your support & tips are welcome: ko-fi.com/rylandkurshenoff
Oh my goodness, this mix is so MASTERFULLY done! I rarely ever comment on videos but this mix not only induces extreme nostalgia, but it makes me feel like a little kid discovering something life-changing for the first time. Thank you so much for this, best wishes to you my friend. +1 sub.

So excited to see another upload from you. Your N64 jungle mixes made my first 2 years as a dad a pleasure. The joy and dances my kids get when they hear Bomberman will always bring joy to my heart. We truly appreciate your craft and the journey it lead in finding all these gems. Keep it up boss, much love.
I think I finally came across my tribe of people here. I always felt like I was the onnnnnnly one that loved this type of music. Great to see others that love this music because it’s truly magnetic & amazing. Great track!!
This one rips! Even better than N64. Probably because so many more artist wanted to explore the CD technology the games had on the PS. These tracks hold up so well and it’s crazy to see how much care and dedication the music designers had making these. Very deep game selection too mad props. Thanks for the time you took making these.
This is probably the best mix I've ever heard in my life, thank you so much, this is so good, nostalgic, I was 11years old when PS1 came out, glory days
My favorites 31:08 how do you think (planet dob) 1:55:41 some kinds of love (planet dob) 2:01:40 dark ruins (ape escape) 2:14:38 secret life (rollcage stage 2) 2:41:03 flo jack (dance dance revolution 2ndremix append club version vol 1)
This mix popped out in my recommendations out of nowhere and I'm really fascinated. I knew DnB was something of the old school games but damn... this is another whole level. Even a Barbie game with that music? Who would have thought! Thank you so much for this. By the way... Do you know music similar to Armored Core (PS1) OST? I remember a few tracks have that DnB sound haha, but the style per se is something really different and awesome
This is the kinda music Toonami would blast in the background of their bumps during the early 2000s anime slots. I will never forget it. From when I was 9 to about 14 years old... BEST TIME to be alive.
Don't forget the aesthetic. Lovely Y2K cybernetic atmosphere... with Swayzak adding a bit of that sharp-edged '00s cartoon villain (cybervillain) flair too.
This selection fits so well that I thought it was a remix of the originals. When I was searching for psx ost this was 100% the vibe I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time and sharing this beautiful selection.
So one night i was just contemplating how i like DnB, when none of my friends nor family listen to this type of music. Today i found the answer, i didn't realized how many Drum n bass music was in the early ps1 era, and i played alot of ps1 back then! Thank you for uploading this gem!
Oh and when i listen to that Raycrisis bass line, goddamn it you took me back man! Sitting at 6AM, its raining outside, playing this on the psx while eating french fries. Good times!
@@octoglazed3693 yea the Raycrisis track is one of my favs same with Raystorm. Shmups especially from this time always had sick dnd/breaks in the games. It's funny you mention it I was just gonna leave a comment about it.
@@vo7tage All of this originated im talking music wise from the Black community. Rock n Roll Hip hop jazz blues gospel house techno Dj'ing breakbeats country rnb And most important SOUL are came from and originated from the Black American Man tho. but credit to the Japanese and to the westerners for creating these amazing video games and technologies.
I always wondered, which turns my life has taken, to get me into drum and bass as an adult. Seeing (not only) this made me realize, that I listened to this subconsciously as a child. No wonder I love DnB these days. Even though I never acitvely chose to listen to that kind of music when I was younger.
I feel exactly the same. Not only about DnB, but electronic music in general... Trance, techno, house... These videogames were such a huge influence. For me, those were mainly Ape Escape; Sheep, Dog n' Wolf; Need for Speed High Stakes; Dance Dance Revolution; Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Spyro 2 - Ripto's Rage!
Look up intelligent dum and bass or atmospheric jungle mixes. Or explore some of the stuff released on good looking records back in the 90s early 00s, theres loaaads of this music to explore.
Every once in awhile the algorithm gets things just right and introduces me to a BANGER of a playlist. This right here, is it. Absolutely loved listening to this throughout my week and appreciate the work you do putting this together. Working through your N64 one now
It's amazing how much DnB/Jungle was on PSX. I knew it too back then, but there's so much more. There were some songs from a weird game called Gekitotsu Larc En Ciel (from the J-Rock Band Larc En Eiel) I was trying to rip, now it's so easy to rip the songs. But I've also been listening to Jungle since the 90's, though I was in NYC and it was super hard to get tracks here back then. Apparently it was even popular in Japan at the time, too, and it makes for very good video game music. But I never stopped listening, and still do.
Music like this actually hurts me as i have a nostalgic overload problem. i keep thinking about all the people i loved back in the 90s and early 2000s that have passed away and wont be able to enjoy the future with me. its so hard. no matter how much we try the good days are gone. yes we can create new memories but come on lets be real. Nothing is ever gonna top the 90s-early 2000s.
Whenever im editing hours of footage, I need something thats lowkey and not distracting to listen to This is the perfect mix for that IMO Ive probably watched this whole video 6 times over in the last 2 days alone
Yes! Drum and bass and jungle is so good, i can't understand to this day why this genre of music somewhat vanished away? Maybe mid 2000 disappeared utterly from everything. Like here are a couple of things dnb works so fucking well in my opinion: Scifi and cyberpunk genre in general, I always think ghost in the shell when i listen to drum and bass and mecha/mech genre in games or animations. I hope some sort of dnb popularity wave comes like synth music and 80's style had HUGE boom in 2009-2012 period. And synthwave or retrowave just keeps going, which is nice of course!
To everyone who's studying with this music: Checklist: • A bottle of water, at least 1 liter. Your brain works better if it has enough water and drinking helps you to concentrate💧 • Your charger. You sometimes don't even notice that your device's battery is going down, so better have it plugged in all the time🔋 • Your headphones. You will be able to focus more with headphones, because it blocks background noises. Also, if it's a late night study session, you won't wake up anyone🎧 • a tea or coffee. Coffee keeps you awake, green or black tea can make you feel more awake as well.☕ • Your study/work stuff: your laptop/tablet/phone , a few pens, paper or whatever you need.⌨ •Anything else you could need, what about a heat pad, a blanket, a good lamp, your pet so you have a study buddy 🐈 Reminder : After an hour, you should stand up and walk a bit around. Better stop the music or put on different music for the break. Open your window, even if it's cold outside. Fresh air will make it better, trust me. You could also lay your head down on your desk for ten minutes and listen to a podcast. Or, if you have to read a book, listen to the audiobook of it. You can also listen to the audiobook while doing another thing, that's even better than listening to music while reading the book. I hope y'all had a good day, if not, that's okay too. Remember to take care of yourself and try to get some sleep tonight 😴🧸
Man the PS1 or PSX was such a huge revolution, many people don't realize how groundbreaking this console was with some awesome games and others being little experiments with 3D, thank god for Ken Kutaragi and your channel for this awesome mix :D
Got to add to the chorus of people in the comments: as a "retired" DJ who fixates on this shit this mix is so flawlessly blended , structured and executed. Peaks, valleys, ITS SO GOOD. The nostalgic selections from golden era games just makes this one of the best mixdowns on this entire site.
I was so surprised to hear Sentidub in here. It's such an obscure game (one of my all time favourites), and the track isn't even from the game lol, it's from an obscure soundtrack CD of remixes that I believe only came with the PC version (and only in Germany?). I've listened to it ten million times, it's very cool to hear it here.
This kind of music is exactly what gets me into a weird flow state while working, especially when it's dull and dark outside and I'm doing something engaging. (If you like this but want something a bit more intense, I listened to the Serial Experiments Lain CYBERiA Mix all the way through university finals.)
I’ve never had a Sony console in my life but after listening for just ten minutes I feel like an entire childhood’s worth of PlayStation nostalgia has been uploaded directly to my brain
I rememeber being a kid and loving video game music like this. Fast forward 15-20 years after learning what jungle and drum and base is, and now its completely blowing my mind how all this amazing music was with me all this time.
Have come back to this particular mix so many times now... Seems only right to say - THANK YOU, RYLAND! Dudes not only collected a sick compilation of tracks, he actually mixed them! And thoughtfully too, this is by far my favourite "PlayStation jungle" mix - it's not even a competition imo
CANNOT WAIT!!! I first found your mixes in a local Dominos. One of the employees was bumping your N64 Jungle Mix!

for anyone unaware, all the characters featured onscreen are from "slap happy rhythm busters" which is one of the most vibrant looking titles on the PSX
(quick edit to elaborate: i feel like including a few fun facts about the game because it never really caught on with a lot of people, which is sad because the game's pretty cool.)
-it was one of the first games to employ cel-shading which was pretty rare to see out of a psx game at the time
-the game was a 2.5d fighter (3d characters on a 2d plane), and very possibly the first of it's kind, i can't find any other fighters of that style before this game came out, so there's no way for me to be 100% sure, it definitely predates the rumble fish by a while
-level 3 supers are performed by playing a rhythm minigame, similar to rise's super in P4U2
-the game features reworked characters from another fighting game made by the same devs called "vs."
it's a neat game that definitely deserves your attention if you're looking for something different to try out, there's not much documented on it but guilewinquote has a short video on it, and the super best friends played it on their fisticuffs series, so consider checking those out if you want to see more on this game

For real, this is my currently favorite and optimal music for work, except Motorhead or total silence)
yeah I'm trying this
10000% man. I listen to dub techno when im overstimulated, and jungle when im understimulated.. which is a lot of life for me i guess :D

I agree
The most soulful D&B mix on the planet. Combining the best possible worlds together.
❤️
You must have had to do some serious digging for this mix, some of these games are so obscure lol
This mix popped out in my recommendations out of nowhere and I'm really fascinated. I knew DnB was something of the old school games but damn... this is another whole level. Even a Barbie game with that music? Who would have thought! Thank you so much for this. By the way... Do you know music similar to Armored Core (PS1) OST? I remember a few tracks have that DnB sound haha, but the style per se is something really different and awesome
yes armored core has some incredible rave tunes, i'll share some similar sounding music in upcoming mixes
my theory is that they did all those nostalgic yet random videogames as an excuse to drop the hardest soundtracks ever written
This is the kinda music Toonami would blast in the background of their bumps during the early 2000s anime slots.
I will never forget it. From when I was 9 to about 14 years old... BEST TIME to be alive.
Introduced to electronica in the fringe of other genres by Toonami and AMPtv on Mtv myself. (^How old are you really statement. Haha)
Don't forget the aesthetic. Lovely Y2K cybernetic atmosphere... with Swayzak adding a bit of that sharp-edged '00s cartoon villain (cybervillain) flair too.
I was just about to comment this lol Toonami aesthetic including their bumps really helped shape a lot of my early tastes in music and art :D
Cowboy Bebop was the first time I heard a dnb track. Shit still slaps to this day.
This is so rad. What are the backgrounds from!?? wish i grew up with this console.
slap happy rhythm busters
@readwriteautorecurring
Digging super deep here...I thought i'd heard all the jungle+D&B on the playstation and I found a bunch of gems 🙃
too young to feel nostalgic listening to this but i love it nevertheless
♥️
Same here
This selection fits so well that I thought it was a remix of the originals. When I was searching for psx ost this was 100% the vibe I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time and sharing this beautiful selection.
So one night i was just contemplating how i like DnB, when none of my friends nor family listen to this type of music. Today i found the answer, i didn't realized how many Drum n bass music was in the early ps1 era, and i played alot of ps1 back then! Thank you for uploading this gem!
Oh and when i listen to that Raycrisis bass line, goddamn it you took me back man! Sitting at 6AM, its raining outside, playing this on the psx while eating french fries. Good times!
♥️
@@octoglazed3693 yea the Raycrisis track is one of my favs same with Raystorm. Shmups especially from this time always had sick dnd/breaks in the games. It's funny you mention it I was just gonna leave a comment about it.

Hey, love your mixes! (N64 and Playstation) Can't get over those smooth transitions!
❤️
Honestly my favorite PlayStation mix. The blending and aesthetic match is so good.
Incredible. Japan in the 90s were such a vibe.
Jungle is English my guy...
@@ShredAndPurr you forgot the part where Playstation is a Japanese brand
@@vo7tage All of this originated im talking music wise
from the Black community. Rock n Roll Hip hop jazz blues gospel house techno Dj'ing breakbeats
country rnb And most important SOUL are came from and originated from the Black American Man tho.
but credit to the Japanese and to the westerners for creating these amazing video games and technologies.
@google
I have been listening to this mix for months now and JUST realized Parappa’s version of Fright Flight is in here I’m geekin
Love the seamless transitions. Sometimes impossible to differentiate when the songs change.
Is there a download link to this? I'd love to load this in a standalone music player
if it comes from your mix i already know its gonna be a total banger
❤️
every singly song in this slaps jesus christ
These transitions from track to track sending me into different realms bruv.
Thank you for this futuristic blast from the past.
I always wondered, which turns my life has taken, to get me into drum and bass as an adult.
Seeing (not only) this made me realize, that I listened to this subconsciously as a child. No wonder I love DnB these days. Even though I never acitvely chose to listen to that kind of music when I was younger.
I think I feel the same way.
I feel exactly the same. Not only about DnB, but electronic music in general... Trance, techno, house... These videogames were such a huge influence.
For me, those were mainly Ape Escape; Sheep, Dog n' Wolf; Need for Speed High Stakes; Dance Dance Revolution; Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Spyro 2 - Ripto's Rage!
A lot of us have this journey
@open
You got sick mixes, my dude. I listen to them at work everyday.
❤️

@googledrive
I absolutely adore music like this, especially Diver's Dream. Wish I could find more music like that.
❤️
Not exactly the same, but the first thing I thought of when hearing diver's dream was ageispolis by aphex twin if you haven't heard it
Try Digimon world 4 OST, Astro boy ps1 OST, Spiral knights OST.
Look up intelligent dum and bass or atmospheric jungle mixes. Or explore some of the stuff released on good looking records back in the 90s early 00s, theres loaaads of this music to explore.
yo I’ve been diggin for a min divers dream is special
The universe blessed us with the Playstation in all it's audio goodness.
Every once in awhile the algorithm gets things just right and introduces me to a BANGER of a playlist. This right here, is it. Absolutely loved listening to this throughout my week and appreciate the work you do putting this together. Working through your N64 one now
This is the kind of DnB I like to hear. Very Ape Escape in tone but also original in it's own way. I like it, keep up the hard work. ♠️🔥
It's amazing how much DnB/Jungle was on PSX. I knew it too back then, but there's so much more. There were some songs from a weird game called Gekitotsu Larc En Ciel (from the J-Rock Band Larc En Eiel) I was trying to rip, now it's so easy to rip the songs. But I've also been listening to Jungle since the 90's, though I was in NYC and it was super hard to get tracks here back then. Apparently it was even popular in Japan at the time, too, and it makes for very good video game music. But I never stopped listening, and still do.
Music like this actually hurts me as i have a nostalgic overload problem.
i keep thinking about all the people i loved back in the 90s and early 2000s that have passed
away and wont be able to enjoy the future with me. its so hard. no matter how much we try the
good days are gone. yes we can create new memories but come on lets be real. Nothing is
ever gonna top the 90s-early 2000s.
Many others have said similar things about other eras. Are they right?
You make the good days My friend, everyday. In twenty years maybe You would think this are the good ones, You can always build good memories 😊
Not my type of music, gonna have to dislike in order to get better reccomended videos.
LoFi is for when you've just started the assignment.
Jungle is for the last hour before you have to hand it in.
MASSIVE ape escape vibes from that first song. Love this mix!
And the fact that Barbie Super Sports is on here. 😂 Hidden gem, that one was.
Holy shit, this is exciting. Someday, you and dedeco should collab
Instantly liked. This hits the spot! 😌👌
Both PS1 and Dreamcast have this beautiful music.
words cannot describe how in love i am with this type of music
Whenever im editing hours of footage, I need something thats lowkey and not distracting to listen to
This is the perfect mix for that IMO
Ive probably watched this whole video 6 times over in the last 2 days alone
Yes! Drum and bass and jungle is so good, i can't understand to this day why this genre of music somewhat vanished away? Maybe mid 2000 disappeared utterly from everything. Like here are a couple of things dnb works so fucking well in my opinion: Scifi and cyberpunk genre in general, I always think ghost in the shell when i listen to drum and bass and mecha/mech genre in games or animations. I hope some sort of dnb popularity wave comes like synth music and 80's style had HUGE boom in 2009-2012 period. And synthwave or retrowave just keeps going, which is nice of course!
I have slept on this genre for far too long.
Open your ears
Open your mind

The transition at 1:39:22 was INSANE, I filled my undies.
SIR-???
i creamed myself
Y u just randomly pick a timestamp 1h 40m in 😭😭

Thank you for your hard work on this mix. I love hove you didn't just throw the tracks in there, but also cared to make many transitions seamless
To everyone who's studying with this music:
Checklist:
• A bottle of water, at least 1 liter. Your brain works better if it has enough water and drinking helps you to concentrate💧
• Your charger. You sometimes don't even notice that your device's battery is going down, so better have it plugged in all the time🔋
• Your headphones. You will be able to focus more with headphones, because it blocks background noises. Also, if it's a late night study session, you won't wake up anyone🎧
• a tea or coffee. Coffee keeps you awake, green or black tea can make you feel more awake as well.☕
• Your study/work stuff: your laptop/tablet/phone , a few pens, paper or whatever you need.⌨
•Anything else you could need, what about a heat pad, a blanket, a good lamp, your pet so you have a study buddy 🐈
Reminder : After an hour, you should stand up and walk a bit around. Better stop the music or put on different music for the break. Open your window, even if it's cold outside. Fresh air will make it better, trust me.
You could also lay your head down on your desk for ten minutes and listen to a podcast. Or, if you have to read a book, listen to the audiobook of it. You can also listen to the audiobook while doing another thing, that's even better than listening to music while reading the book.
I hope y'all had a good day, if not, that's okay too. Remember to take care of yourself and try to get some sleep tonight 😴🧸

Nostalgia hits hard, closing my eyes and diving into the old memories
Man the PS1 or PSX was such a huge revolution, many people don't realize how groundbreaking this console was with some awesome games and others being little experiments with 3D, thank god for Ken Kutaragi and your channel for this awesome mix :D
♥️
What kind of music is this, I can't quite put my finger around it. A podcaster called it Xbox PS1 music and this CHANGED MY LIFE. I'm focused as fuck
anybody know the source for the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure track? Super catchy.
This is one of the top 1% jungle/dnb mixes on yt, love all the piano 🎹
this mix is helping me power through my math assignments like a god, thanks so much for the dope mix man
❤️
Just wow. Words cannot describe what feeling this music gives me. Brilliant choice of tracks
❤️
This will be a banger I can feel it in my bones!
absolutely
Got to add to the chorus of people in the comments: as a "retired" DJ who fixates on this shit this mix is so flawlessly blended , structured and executed. Peaks, valleys, ITS SO GOOD. The nostalgic selections from golden era games just makes this one of the best mixdowns on this entire site.
I was so surprised to hear Sentidub in here. It's such an obscure game (one of my all time favourites), and the track isn't even from the game lol, it's from an obscure soundtrack CD of remixes that I believe only came with the PC version (and only in Germany?). I've listened to it ten million times, it's very cool to hear it here.
This kind of music is exactly what gets me into a weird flow state while working, especially when it's dull and dark outside and I'm doing something engaging.
(If you like this but want something a bit more intense, I listened to the Serial Experiments Lain CYBERiA Mix all the way through university finals.)
I’ve never had a Sony console in my life but after listening for just ten minutes I feel like an entire childhood’s worth of PlayStation nostalgia has been uploaded directly to my brain
Getchu a ps5
@@jpesicka492 I'd rather get a PS1 and start from the beginning.
@@i_GiveFRUITS a modded PS2 with FMC and OPL* with this you can play PS1/PS2 games, or just buy a PSP/VITA to play PS1 games.
I rememeber being a kid and loving video game music like this. Fast forward 15-20 years after learning what jungle and drum and base is, and now its completely blowing my mind how all this amazing music was with me all this time.
Love how the track Jojo's bizarre adventure is just called "Jojo's bizarre adventure"
Omg bgm02 (anna kournikova's smash court tennis), my lord shit makes my soul speak
Have come back to this particular mix so many times now... Seems only right to say - THANK YOU, RYLAND! Dudes not only collected a sick compilation of tracks, he actually mixed them! And thoughtfully too, this is by far my favourite "PlayStation jungle" mix - it's not even a competition imo
thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Technology never needed to go further than this
This is one of those things you never knew you needed in life until you hear it.
what game is jojos bizzare adventure from? I looked through the ps1 games soundtrack and couldnt find it
This mix gives me notsalgia from a era I was never even born in. What a masterpiece.
