this tune is so weird but so addictive! Miss my clubbing days of 1997-2001 was very lucky to catch UK garage in its prime. Shouts out to all who were teens in the late 90's, who remember taping tunes off the pirate stations using TDK blank cassette tapes bought from woolworths, (still have them somewhere in the loft). Ealing Boulevard, Leicester Square Equinox, Limelight at Shaftsbury Avenue. West London BOOOOOOOOOM SELECTAAAAAA!
I’m a 15 year old girl live in the uk and my parents where playing this and I was like wow this sounds sooo good bust it on my speakers straight away 😭
"When facing your enemy, you have to aim for his weakest point. Use the Biddha Finger ACCURATELY, and you'll find you will always win, whatever he should try to do." THIS DIALOGUE IS FROM SHAOLIN v/s LLAMA, a wicked kung fu flick from the early eighties, I think (if not the late seventies)
Sometimes the tune is so underground and og it crosses over the border of being a simple garage/breakbeat track. This one's just one of those underground tunes.
When garage become dark! First time hearing this was on DJ EZ BASS BREAKS & BEATS cd 2001. This was more break beat similar to Dj Zinc, Harry Lime, Dj Narrows
I don't blame anyone for saying this ain't garage but it was so heavily played by garage dj's (I think mostly because the mc's would go hard on tracks like these) that it just became garage... Then obviously tracks like these got harder and harder and grimier then suddenly it was being called grime and garage was pretty much wishy washy after that... Well, at least until baseline stopped being a regional phenomenon and went national for a while. But yeah those mc's... They kinda blew garage up then burned it to the ground. Was never up for grime. My time was more 97 to 2002ish.
Tony Marinou this is where Garage started to transition slowly to grime. First So Solid, then Heartless crew and Pay as u go cartel and then all of sudden!, all these ‘Crews’ started showing up! and then the Grime scene was born and like you said , crashed and burned. So those who survived it started following dubstep! And that’s when the game changed yet again. But thats another story 👍👍
somewhere between garage and breaks, i'd say. i definitely remember this getting rinsed on loads of garage sets. tricky tune to come out of though. I used to end up heading down the zinc route after this pretty often (mostly out of laziness).
you are correct mate,this toon came on the scene in 2000 but was officially released at the start of 2001. the upload date just means ive been lazy ;-)
This tune means so much more to me now I lost my right index finger and am replacing it with a robotic looking prosthetic that has been partly inspired by a buddhist girl hahahaha :D.
Anyone know where the "You think you're tough, well you're not..." sample comes from? Is it from Shaolin vs Lama as well? And if so, from where exactly? Thanks.
@@michaela2706 yes unfortunately in life a few bastard children are sometimes made along the way. Grime was the one unfortunate child that spawned from the happy positive vybe of true UKG that brought all people from all walks of life together with positive beats, vybes and messages of love. Ah well
You mean to tell me that you fingered the enemy in Buddha's garage? Well I guess your style MUST be the best then?! I don't have to prove or probe anything, I have been meditating.
People just argue about anything now, who cares if this is classed as garage or not its a fuckin tune (although sounds better when played a bit faster) and thats it.

Best years to do it
@@mycatsownwebsite4626 this was the best time
Don’t forget the Gass club. Did they have garage nights at Equinox?
Naaa équinoxe you broght back mémories bro
I got all my out put them in my van in tape player and recorded them 2 my phone
You can say what you want but no one out of London would have known about this tune if it wasn't for uk garage - hats off
Not even sure what that could possibly mean
Doesn't matter if it's garage or grime it's still a fucking banger
Garage though
Garage, no debate
Must be stupid to think this is Grime... this right here is peak Garage... viva UKG
Definitely not grime
True it doesn't matter but still though it's garage every day of week
Been years since I listened to Buddha finger and you just forget what an absolute unbelievable banger it is. That first drop is just unreal!
What a time to have been alive
I’m a 15 year old girl live in the uk and my parents where playing this and I was like wow this sounds sooo good bust it on my speakers straight away 😭
Thanks for making all us oldies feel even older! 😂
Breakbeat perfection when ukg 2 step was at its very finest...🤙🏻

yh you mean like the best garage/2step/electro/breakbeat songs are hard to place into a genre because theyre just... good asf

wow my sister had that cd that brings backs memories

The best time was when UK Garage was the most popular music on London, and grime didn’t exist.

you are correct mate,this toon came on the scene in 2000 but was officially released at the start of 2001. the upload date just means ive been lazy ;-)
first dropped in 98 , straight banga / guaranteed to set the place on 🔥🔥🔥
Not to get too bogged down in semantics but I would call this breakbeat garage. See also zinc, chase and status, narrows etc
formzino yeah this is more towards the breakbeat side
Yeah I was playing it in breakbeat sets at the time.
Agreed , Definitely break beat but I first heard this played in soft melodic 2 step garage sets….
This was my shit 🔥🔥🔥
Absolute Garage Dirt ❤
If you don't think this is garage, you weren't there!
Remember in your teens the guaranteed ‘TURN IT DOWWWN’ from the parents downstairs when this one first drops…
This tune means so much more to me now I lost my right index finger and am replacing it with a robotic looking prosthetic that has been partly inspired by a buddhist girl hahahaha :D.
I love this base and vocols together it's bouncin!!!!
What are use talking about of course this is garage
Aaron Harry If they dont know, they need to get to know!!! Simples!!!

Thanks.
UKG at its peak.
You think your tuff,well your not! Your chicken! Oh is that so.? You wanna prove it to me! AIIK AAAIK AAAIIIIK 😂🤣😂🤣😂

just because it was uploaded in 2011 doesn't mean it was released then
Josh Swanson 🤦🏽♂️
When garage started mutating to grime, the dark era 😍😍
shit era
Whats the obsession with linking garage to grime. Leave ukg alone for f*** sake. Please!
@@crazyfalang8420 grime is a sub genre of UKG. There's no way to unlink them

@@crazyfalang8420 Some people prefer darker sounding beats
Thank you for sharing this! 💕
725 person to like this. My fave ever garage tune
Absolute banger!!!!
It's funny that everyone always forget about Breakstep existing as a genre (briefly). Same with Broken Beat around the same era.
Such a unique little banger
Oh yes what a tune
My God what a tune 🔥🔥🔥
For the life of me, I can't get this on Spotify love this tune
If you want the reeeeeeeeload
You betta explodeeee!!!!

Only the best could hit their first bar when the beat dropped.
Facts!
Cos the first beat is on the offbeat of the hi hat.
No one could do it haha
HEARTLESS crew
smell my... oh never mind... big track ;-)
Never realised how similar this sounded to Wookie - Battle till now.
Buddha Shaolin kung fu style is smooth. Watch Burning Paradise then listen to this tune
First record I bought and played all night after school, using TDK tapes to record sets
You mean to tell me that you fingered the enemy in Buddha's garage? Well I guess your style MUST be the best then?! I don't have to prove or probe anything, I have been meditating.
