I listen to this song every New Year's morning
...27 years now
awesome. happy new years! 🙂
I see that username you got there.
nice
@@FGSRFunLol Profile picture too
This is 24 years old and it still doesn't feel dated.
Ben Smith the snare sample makes it sound a bit too much like ska IMO, so, it's the only part that shows its age.
@@necromax13 I don't think so. Sounds like D&B snare commonly used among artists today.
@@augustcelineiii946 no, the drum kit is distinctly 90s, as opposed to the "amen break" which is the drum kit dnb artists have been using since forever.
Born 2 generations ahead of his time
dude this is not an amen break amen breaks have more agreesive drums
This is a certified hood classic
The right hoods
damn right brother
A tip: watch movies at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.
@Yosef Hezekiah yea, been using Flixzone for since december myself =)
lol
I literally found this song in 2019 and i thought it was current, only to find out now that it is from 1997. That is what I call timeless music
time has no meaning when it comes to squarepusher
er.. , yer, it does sound dated.. that sound is ssssuper recognizable from lat 90s early 200.. but super.. (and that production,too)
@@elisac.907 only if youre very familiar with idm/breakbeat tracks that came out of the 90s. for someone who has never heard of music like this, it sounds so fresh
Still influencing fresh talent like JD Beck
Ya joking right kid??? This entire album stinks of the 90’s. It’s a beau piece of work
I miss you, Cam.
This was one of his favourite songs; i still remember standing in his living room, playing this song after a night's partying and before going to sleep around 9 "in the afternoon", as he used to say.
I'm sorry to heart this. It seems your friend has a great taste in music. May his soul rest in peace for all eternity.
rest peacefully cam
A fucking masterpiece, heard this 8 years ago and it changed my life, left classical music school and devoted entirely to electronic music and sound design.
There is a video of Beep Street on RUclips, a clip driving around in Tokyo. The perfect match between audio and video.
What a legend, living life your way.
What about it changed you?
Sad!
@@nicklandablenot really. it's honestly great. guy loves doing what he loves and he's not afraid to confront the consequences of such decisions. it's kind of inspiring in a way.
There's something about this song I can't really explain.
Everytime I listen to it, everytime the piano/vibraphone starts I just start feeling nostalgic of the 2000s and early 2010s.
I really miss those days...
Me too. A masterpiece
honestly doesn't it remind you of simpler times , love it.
Drum n bass always takes me back to NY 90s .... beautiful times
Technically this is the genre known as "breaks", a close cousin of drum & bass.
First Sleeping Dogs and now Rider's Republic, this song is back in the videogame landscape! Love it
One of the best pieces of music I've heard in my life.
Same!
Along with Aphex Twin, I hope !
@@pauljohnpinkybennett3557 better
@@superchecco81fuck I doubt it bud, the mass of records, back catalogue tracks. They're both mates but Aphex twin has a wider depth of I.D.M.
@@superchecco81fuck oof I love squarepusher but he ain't on the same level as Richard
between the drum programming, the pulsating bassline, the bittersweet yet beautiful melody this ranks as one of my favorite songs over the past 20 years on a emotional and technical level and its great to hear him still pushing the limits while keeping his jazz fusion roots. "Music is rotted one Note" needs a repress on LP as my CD has worn itself out
I 100% agree
I first heard it in Sleeping Dogs when i was cruising around on the highway. It was just magical. I just found it again after some years and i instantly got the same feeling as back then. This is Art. ❤
To me this song is an example of how machines can make someone feel so human, so in love and in harmony with the energy that flows through the world. How the artificial becomes natural. Art.
if you think about it. We are nature. If we are natural, everything we make is too. More refined modes of matter are still composed of the same stuff, even if their functions are so complex that they seem to defy nature.
I guess he just recorded every instrument and used actually recorded drum loop. There is enough soul in it.
Pako Vega everything artificial is natural you dingus haha
Gay.
great comment
damn that wave of drums at 2:18 it's pure madness. What an amazing mix
and came back at 4:18 damn it really felt like a wave
How are you fellow Straw Hat?
You aren’t lying, He goes on a major tear….
Yeah, if you look at the waveforms for hard normal daddy tracks he really left so much good dynamic range in there
The first time I heard this my mind was BLOWN
me too!
This might be one of my favorite IDM tracks, ever. Of all time.
Yeah it's pretty special. I only discovered this last year or maybe 2018 - I've listened to it a lot now.
Yes i love this a lot man, drums sound hellish but coordinated. Hardcore but melts the soul a little bit at the same time
What is IDM
@@deafeye Intelligent dance music. Basically EDM, but more...creative, for lack of a better word (there's a Wikipedia article on IDM, I'd recommend looking there). Famous IDM artists include Squarepusher, Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin, Clark, and Autechre, among others.
More akin to drill&bass/braindance to be specific, which is a subgenre but still, it helps to know more
This song feels like a hopeful, melancholic recollection of one's life's progress, humbling like watching the soft colours of a sunset and thinking about the vastness and complexities of everyone and everything around you. Although the existential march onward is blind and there will be future bad days, separated from everything bad about this world, there is the warmth of hope that the tomorrows of tomorrow will bring good news.
Made me cry😊
I can't stop listening to this song seriously.
I hear ya ! Good times! There nothing negative about it.. Just good!
Lsdude420 same here love this one...
lol
One of my favorite pieces of music of all time.
This is such a peaceful and chill song. I can ride around to it for hours
Never get bored even though I've listened to it a million times. Perfection.
me too ))
Me too!
the two climaxes are beyond words. indescribable.
great.. not alone.... I feel the same way.
I only discovered this song in 2015. I was lonely because I was working for a year in a city where I didn't know anyone. Music like this made it a happy loneliness until I met people.
20 years later and here we all are still enjoying this amazing track.
Amazing-never knew they were around this long-never heard of them until this past Sunday! Son In Law had song on Bluetooth plugged in in the car. I asked what he was listening to. Sure glad I did! I'm in love!
Real music is timeless... it surpasses time.
YAS 2020!!!!
'Beep Street' is literally the perfect title for this.
It piques your interest, fits the genre having all these weird names, it's catchy, and the song itself sounds very urban and relaxed. It sounds like a simple lifestyle, just driving along the streets of your city, going about your day beneath a cloudy sky, and in the monotony of your life routine you ponder the mysteries of the world and reflect with yourself. You have a desire to learn and see what's out there beyond your city. For now you can't. You're still trapped paying bills, living in apartments, working your ass off in a job you don't really like.
But someday, you'll be able to fly. You'll travel the world and see everything.
Beautiful and it describes perfectly what I'm feeling
I love that interpretation
exactly
So THAT's my horoscope. thank you!
sounds like the perfect introduction to a Time Out Of Joint adaptation
I jumped when I heard this in an Oslo club in97.Still kicks ass!☮️&❤2 U all from an Old Norse God
Drum sample is from the song "Soul Pride" by James Brown
thanke you!
Greg Dutcher actually its the amen break
Quote soul pride sir, just check :)
I'm glad it's not amen, so overused anyway (you know it is)
so much fun to play with though.
released a few months before i was born. discovered it in 2017.. its by far one of the best tracks i ever experienced. i cant even describe the amazing feelings of it. it feels like past, present and future at the same time. a feeling long gone, but also still being present, and like its just about to happen. idk. so peaceful. so solitary. lost place. cant get enough of this track
at 42 seconds when he hits one key on the synth... to let you know what type of ride you are in for
I was in awe when I heard this playing in Riders Republic! I'm so happy an amazing song like this is in an awesome game.
RR has a goated soundtrack, whoever was in charge knows about electronic music, there's also a few aphex twin tracks on it
Beatiful balance between the base, bass, low tones, and piano, with a little bit of DnB, its 1997, from this song and Richard D. Jamesa tekno V2 starts... i miss songs like this... peace
really>? how did you get here? just asking from a fellow Aphix Twin fan.
@@justinross940 probably just the breakbeats.
Always love me some old Squarepusher. I remember cruising around at night playing this song & album. Moody for being so technical. Love the contrast of live instruments and electronic. Gives it soul that so much other music is missing when it attempts to replicate this genre.
Every single snare hit is printed in my brain! So good and so timeless. Great piece of music!
Im from CHILE... I like so much squarepusher since 20 years old
wena culiaito bacan saber que hay mas gente que le aplica al IDM por acá
we somos de todas partes. eeuu
Why do I cry tears of joy whenever I hear this song? This is magical!
Homeboy got his MIDI velocity programming down to a tee!... And then after that. He throws in some of the most emotive music on top!!. 🍒🍒🍒
This song randomly came up on my Spotify one day a couple years ago and I’m so happy it did.
hypnotizing drums 🤤
Every time I listen to the sound so clean
I love Squarepusher great artist!
This really needs fast-forwarded time-lapse footage of a city intersection.

2020 and this still sounds fresh!
Still love this song in 2022
Even in 2023 this song still sounds pretty modern!
@@rd101 For sure, this music is timeless
2135 and this song is still fresh
2024, still fresh
This track gives me so many feelings of nostalgia it's unreal...
This song was way ahead of its time.
Ur so right
One of the most beautiful things I have ever heard, completely threw me off guard the first time. Wow wow wow wow wow
Enjoyed this track while playing Sleeping Dogs. Like that there was a radio channel dedicated to the Warp label. Much respect to the developers.
Oh yeah, I bought this record back in the days and recorded it on cassette tape so I could listen to it in my car
Have a bad day and listen this masterpiece of music! It will get you back on track to handle that shit! Squarepusher!!
They played this on the radio today! I was so surprised
Highlight of that Album. Artwork is second to none done by the designers republic.
been listening to this song for 3 years now... wish i'd known it sooner :/
to be honest this is my all time favorite pusher track, just pure perfection.
So beautiful
I first heard this about 7/8 years ago and it is in my top 10 most played tracks. I love everything about it, never gets old, perfection!
so intense and at the same time so relaxing track, damn Ive been looking for it for so long
2023! Still Banging!
I‘m listening in 2019 and I will keep listening at least until 3019, I swear!
the part from 0:09 to 0:12 always gives me chills
That's some intricate drum programming
Still listening to this, still fresh after 20years..
A total gem that hasn't aged a day. I reviewed this album when I was a music journo back in the day, still love this track.
This track expresses my deep sorrow and Griff I feel right now.turning back to it after so many years
I still return to this album every so often and it gets better and better every time.
I love everyone’s time stamps. I scroll through and feel your feels at the same time you did
Awesome album and easily among his best material.
gorgeous immortal track
This is so far out man. Timeless music.
the snare roll a 2:19 gives me goosebumps
never ages
6:00 my favourite. I love how peaceful that is
Sleeping Dogs brought me here years ago, still come back and enjoy this masterpiece!
Same... Sleeping dogs really has some good songs.
@@janmejaykrishna709 Can you explain, I have not played Sleeping Dogs
And Riders Republic
@@smaurf2499 warp radio was my go-to radio station in sleeping dogs, it's the one where beep street was aired
ruclips.net/video/s3QhMcDqEA0/видео.html
@@smaurf2499 good game gta style but set in china plenty of rides to custom and gangsters to slay cool fight system and great soundtrack
Love this. Always coming back..
i don't really have much to say that is noteworthy besides I love this song so much it makes me feel so nostalgic the final melody always makes me cry this is such a beautiful song this is pure art I love you squarepusher
His new material is astounding in its complexity and density, but somehow I prefer this to his new ultra-glitch hyper-fusion whatever you want to deem it. This material had more human connection, at least for me. Nobody could touch him back then, now the programs do EVERYTHING for you. Making this even more amazing when you consider how he was working.
Wow. I haven't heard this one in years. Still brings me chills 💗✌️
one of my fav, I'll always remember the first time this track hit my eardrum !
Questa è musica! Grazie per le emozioni che riesci a trasmetterci con questi suoni fantastici❤️
Wow, awakes so many memories from a speciel time in life. Sounding exactly as fresh as first time I heard! Love it.
As I still remember my reaction of emotion and joy to realize that it is great song is within the game of Sleeping Dogs. Moments that I will never forget
This is pure genius outstanding work and production by Squarepusher 👋👋💨💨💨
This would fit for a adult swim bump
Truly underrated. Masterpiece.
This song is precious. So, so precious. Gets me emotional every time.
The rushing rapid energy of those genius drums,
combined with the slow beautiful almost hypnotic chords, harmonies and melodies...
It makes me feel like I'm travelling at the speed of light,
while simultaneously being *absolutely still,* floating suspended in time and space.
This is one of those songs that never gets old, make more tracks like this one, love it
Album that saved my life!
so many memories align here...biggest... x
Still one of the most beautiful music ever.
been slowly waiting for months for this to reach 1 million views, almost there
This is perfect. Truly timeless
Still love it all these years later.
this song has such a lush and moving character to it, really incredible track
love this track motivates me.....
Just comparing this to Terminal Slam, a hypermodern track. This piece is so late 90s, awesome :)
Some of the best drum programming of all time.
If Squarepusher had a drummer, he would have the biggest arms on Earth, and probably 3 or 4 arms at that.

... true
+MUSTASCH1O listen to frictional nevada by venetian snares
I know a drummer who just recorded this track with all the parts. I saw the teaser, it looks freaking unreal. He is posting the video soon, will share it here. You guys have to see this.
music of my life when people ask me what type of music i listen to its the music of my time Squarepusher, royksopp, plaid and aphex twin.
holy shit forgot about royksopp... good stuff
Where’s autechre?
@@buried4430 you know me too well.
@@buried4430 let me guess, you like Burial?

Still remember buying this at the record store without bothing to listen to it first.
Never regrets w the pusher

This music is still so revolutionary
