Just changed the game for drum n bass this track...I've never had the chance to drop it at all. Next party I'm at, it will be the first tune on the decks!
I cant even describe how much I love, adore and enjoy this Album. In my opinion (for my taste) it is the greatest Album EVER produced by anyone. It beams me right back into the years of 96 thru 99 - in which I had this Album on repeat. My first Love, my first break up, the last years of school, my slow transition from listening to techno/trance to Drum & Bass, Ambient and more experimental stuff like Future Sound of London (Lifeforms) or Aphex Twin. The sound programming and the incredible work on the arrangements - everything is perfect. Tracks like Timeless, Kemistry, Sensual or Sea of Tears immidiately do something to my endorphins and my body and brain remembers how I felt, how things smelled, how I walked thru Berlin with headphones on thinking... how the sun felt, the mornings, the summertime nights with birds singing.......its incredible and something very different I hardly ever experience concerning Music.
top fucking tune I'm 45 and still loving this, they don't drop tunes like this today, and who ever gives thumbs down are knobs, know your drum and bass, dj climax 😎 😎 😎
This brings me back to the days when raves were illegal and we would have to go to a phone booth dial number to get another link for where the rave was at!! Great time to be alive!!!
Perfection is an unachievable concept since optimization, discovery, evolution, and ephemeralization are never ending but this album comes close to the physical manifestation of it.
I was just a kid... I was 13. We didnt have anything like this kind of music in Israel, but i caught Inner City Life radio version on MTV's Chill Out Zone at 2 AM one night. I went to Tower Records with my mom and bought this album. It was winter. I took a shower, came out and pressed play. I had a green-blue bulb as light at my room at the time... I laid on my bed and listened...
Inner city life, pressure, jah. Nuff said. And then the whole album, which is a masterpiece. Next dnb album that achieved that status was New Forms.. Those two.. are ageless music.
Was my fav too. I’m now 44 still remember listening too this as a teen and still do ❤❤❤❤❤ Timeless ❤❤❤Pass it on to your kids am sure you will have in this 9yrs❤❤❤ it’s a piece of history 😊😊
Thanks for posting this masterpiece. Loving Goldie and other electronic British artists like Leftfield, Underworld, The Prodigy, Massive Attack, Faithless, Four Tet, Aphex Twin, Tricky, Unkle, Roni Size, The Streets, Orbital, Burial, Krust, Forest Swords, Allflaws
Rest In Power,... Such beauty, balance, and raw perfection... Crisp, clean... Ruff in the jungle BIZNESS!!!!!! Love sent to heaven in your name, Diane Charlemagne.....
I remember this was on MTV, the single version of inner city life... I watched it in the morning at like 08:00am before going to university... i loved it..the video....the sounds.. the vocals...the long lines...the melody ....the dropping grocery cart...the works...and i still love it. So hard yet so beautiful and melodic... i was late that day... Pure love this song. when people say they miss that era, i can relate but i wonder do we miss that era, or the way we were touched by something new?
MemoryLaneCinema I think he’s talking about Goldie. No one could say this was Rob Playford’s best he made too much great music! Goldie too but for me no one is less appreciated and more under rated than Rob Playford period!
I don't think ANY Drum & Bass Album afterwards managed to top this....in my opinion this is the greatest Album of all time. But it has a special meaning to me so I'm hyperbiased.
@@MemoryLaneCinema Where are the great Rob Playford singles and LPs proving that he's a great arranger AND a great composer? Yes, we must give credit where it's due, but the debate over "who made Timeless" has frankly become an utter waste of time.
as a 16 year old today i cant help but feel hypercritical. i wish i was born earlier so this could have been coming out when i was this age, but anything new just isnt like this. apart from some wonderful jazz musicians like Moses Boyd and Yuseff Dayes, i feel like i want the new of the 80s and 90s, not the new of now. i cant really explain it. how can i view myself as so forward thinking when all i listen to and watch is from the past?
Damn this album is like a father to me. It was released 19 years ago, it is old as me as I am 95 born, so were young and were not too old. Listening back to the times of Jungle and D&B during rave era period. I heard some of the tracks in Timeless were strong in the 95's played in many memories all over the places in rave locations. Man this album is way out of this dimension or frequency. Divine and bliss. It's like "Spiritual drum & bass". I opened my chakras, infinite awareness to the mind I acknowledged 'higher conciousness' spoke to me whilst listening to this meditated track. Timeless, shapeless, formless and infinite.....------->
I'm glad you are enjoying it at the same kind of age I was, hmm... 15 yr old when it came out. My fave to this day seems to be Kemistry. I do not know why, but it dominated the album for me.
Lorna Harris sang lead in 51, shows form 1996 to 1997 as Lead vocalist for Goldie a mate from back in the Day and beyond till the end as support act to Bjork what I ride I know. I'm Lorna Harris
I've discovered Goldie here in Brazil in 1997, and still this sound/album is for me a new type of sound language: is a spiritual expertence. A classic! and I remember my adolecent in skate roller! impossible listen a better sound in a pandemic moment. sound for mediration!
One of the best tunes ever. Thanks for all the LSD/ X and thc rides it gave to me. Now im an serius corporation worker, but still love to put this tune on, and get back to the best times of music, and my life.
25 years ago today, the infamous album, Timeless was released...I thought this was the future-i was literally blown away, I was 20 years old, in the midst of uni life..an album that got me thru many ups + downs + challenges in life..I owe so much to Goldie for this! 💯🖤🙏🏽 #GoodTimes + #Timeless..🖤🙏🏽
Goldie once said: "I have made the best drum and bass album off all time…" He was right, and it is impressive that he didn't produce it, he only told how it should sound.
Henrique Ramos it's on the book "1001 albums you need to hear before you die". That's where i found this albums and many others,i highly recommend it if you're looking into more music like this and many others.

@@AlexAlcyone hella true, there's so many people that go into an album. but in the end, the main artist(s) go on the front. I don't think anyone ignores rob's efforts here, luckily. goldie's a visionary not a musician, so it works out in the end. i'd have him score a film for me if i could.
Goldie saved my life quite a few times living in a tower block so glad they pulled that shit down merton house good times were had but lots of bad times
....this album 'turned me'...didn't give 'Jungle' house room until I heard this. Totally blew me away, and I found unexpected respect for Goldie as a result. Seminal Album without a doubt...'Timeless' is just that, fresh even in 2013.
I'm afraid to say I turned 60 this year, yea fuckin 60! But I still look on this as one of my favourite albums of all time, how sad is this, fuckit I don't care, good music is good music.
I'm writing in to my will that the full 21 mins is played at my funeral from a hired funktion 1 rig.
Don't mess with a dead mans wish!
ahahahahah me too
ashleyborgdj 13:20 - 16:00 for me , not many songs hit you like this
CoOL 🤣😂 go out with a BANG 💥
Bruh, I wonder how many ppl listen to this after that dope ass interview
I hope it happens. This is music that sends shivers up my spine
I come here every month to restore and check my sanity
Come here just about every day and it's always a blessing...
+Jonas Kgomo true dat
Still sounds like the future, 23 years on
Yes, this is exactly how i feel about 90s-00's house music, it has a such a distincty futury feel but not like the cheesy artificial garbage today.
@@blackeroni I secsecond that this brings back great memories
thats why its called timeless
Utterly and completely
Anyone listening to this in lockdown? Classic and timeless
Only the cool kids :)
Yes i have returned to this album during lockdown its definitely timeless classic

Just changed the game for drum n bass this track...I've never had the chance to drop it at all. Next party I'm at, it will be the first tune on the decks!
Especially listening today! 25th Anniversary when Timeless was released! 💯🖤 Priceless moments...#RestInPower Diane ✌🏾🖤🙏🏽
I had the album on CD. I was 27. The world was changing. I am proud to be a DnB head !

Best drum'n'bass track ever. Best drum programming I have ever heard! And the strings and vocals - killer. This track is epic
Это шедевр!!!!

47 and yes this is still as sublime as it ever was!!!!
NO FUCKING WAY, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT AFTER 7 YEARS I COULD FIND THIS AMAZING SESSION 😫
This brings me back to the days when raves were illegal and we would have to go to a phone booth dial number to get another link for where the rave was at!! Great time to be alive!!!
blimey I think you mean 1990...its not that old
@s 97 it was released in 95
Raves fell off when you stopped having to find out the secret address
In 1000 years time this will still sound like it's from the future
This is a soul song from London to all those living inner city lives around the world. ❤️
Perfection is an unachievable concept since optimization, discovery, evolution, and ephemeralization are never ending but this album comes close to the physical manifestation of it.
just found this in a thrift store in Japan for 100yen.... best 100 yen ever
money well spent if you ask me バーゲン
Jealous!
Lucky Basterd
確かに、ブックオフにあれば100円かもしれない(笑)
which one?
I bought this album at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds PX in 1996 while i was in AIT in the Army
Driving through South London when I heard this new release on the radio. I stopped the car
I was just a kid... I was 13. We didnt have anything like this kind of music in Israel, but i caught Inner City Life radio version on MTV's Chill Out Zone at 2 AM one night.
I went to Tower Records with my mom and bought this album. It was winter. I took a shower, came out and pressed play. I had a green-blue bulb as light at my room at the time... I laid on my bed and listened...
i wish i was your brother to trip you in the hall after the cd finished.
took him 21minutes to force himself to stop enjoying his own tune... a work of art imo
Still sounds amazingly fresh in 2024, those drops tho…so life affirming
Some DJ's hit the nail on the head by creating masterpieces. Goldie invented the nail to be hit....
DIZZYGIT awesome analogy!
Well said
u mean rob playford? Get some knowledge pls
MemoryLaneCinema soot on!
Rob Playford made the hammer, the nails and hit the nail with the hammer! Goldie held the nail for him!
Inner city life, pressure, jah. Nuff said. And then the whole album, which is a masterpiece. Next dnb album that achieved that status was New Forms.. Those two.. are ageless music.
Timeless indeed. Rip Diane Charlemagne :(
Oh damn! Didn't know! :[
Halfinium I found out about 6 months ago and I was so sad
way ahead of its time
***** I agree. Nothing touches 90s headz days.
it has no time
timeless
Ryan says that's right it cause it's TIMELESS! !!!! Boom Boom Pow
It's not ahead or behind I think. It's truly timeless.
Was my fav too. I’m now 44 still remember listening too this as a teen and still do ❤❤❤❤❤ Timeless ❤❤❤Pass it on to your kids am sure you will have in this 9yrs❤❤❤ it’s a piece of history 😊😊
I was 15 when this came out and I love it as much now as I did then old school dnb is definitely the best

I loved this tune and never knew that the vocalist Diane Charlemagne was a cousin until a few years later. May she RIP
Diane Charlemagne is dead? I also know her from Urban Cookie Collective. Oh. RIP
She was beautiful in every way x
A legendary track. Life was better back then in 1995.....
I agree..

Tunes that make you breath more easier
Old school London we miss ya 💙🎶👏🏼
Masterpiece!
He's a visionnary. How did he know his song will be timeless by calling it

„Inner city pressure“ - more actual than ever
No pressure in the city at the mo!!!

He never managed to top this CD in my opinion. This CD was never out of my car in 1995.

Dropping a tune called timeless might've sounded egotistical then, but how right he was. Still listening in 2019 and beyond...
damn right
Transcendent music, he put every bit of his soul into this beautiful music.
This track is perfect on a summer hot night, cruising through city or just watching it from some hill

So true. Lovin' this since it came out.

Truly timeless
Definitive. Classic. 💯💯💯👍🏼👍🏼
Best music ever. Best times of my life
Best D'n'B track ever !!!
in case of 90s electronic music, this album will not be forgotten.
This is where Drum & Bass started. This is the Big Bang of Dnb.
The only thing that is true and make sense these days is music. This is it
Rip diane charlemagne our angel
saw it live in Milan as opening act to Bjork, Debut Tour ... masterpiece
4 me the best piece of electronic music ever. Gives u a taste of infinity & chaos
Don't forget to thank Rob Playford who was just as involved as him in this.
I heard in an interview about 20 years ago on a radio station that Goldie was the creative guy, Rob the technical guy who put it into action.

chasin dragons now i paint them sketchin as i type
where they use to drop tins of paint out from their balconys on passers by from orton house down below
Literally a masterpiece.
Never a tune so aptly named, absolute genius!
Since early elctro (1987) he learn me Hiphop, and so the B'line. Thanks for that. Never forget this album.
Goldie, rob playford. Gosh, this is my favourite ever track
RIP Lady Di Charlemagne..
This was an album and a half , what can I say Brilliant ,well made , I'm still into Jungle today but it'll never be the same and it will never die
When I was no where but hearing this made me feel like I was every where !!!
And of course the title is spot on.
It's no longer just music its an esoteric piece!
One of the best drum and bass albums i've ever heard by far! Love it!!!
THIS MUSIC BREAKS THROUGH TIME !
I am so glad I bought this album as a teenager. Timeless indeed.
Still breathtaking after 25 years
This is so much more than music. How greatful i am to the right honourable Mr Goldie himself to share with us such a work of perfection.
....this album 'turned me'...didn't give 'Jungle' house room until I heard this.
Totally blew me away, and I found unexpected respect for Goldie as a result.
Seminal Album without a doubt...'Timeless' is just that, fresh even in 2013.
even now, in the year 2015, nothing comes close to this level of Drum n Bass....
just name dnb 1 track/ artist that could convince me otherwise...
We still have Pioneers, but Nothing will Come close to what goldie did.
deafhaalchinees LTJ Bukem Demon's theme
deafhaalchinees The name is fitting because this is truly a Timeless orchestration. No other DnB can ever reach this level.
deafhaalchinees How about Roni Size / Reprazent
deafhaalchinees don't know if this is real dnb but s950tx16wasr10 from aphex twin is really really good too :)
Timeless indeed
amazing...increible...tantos años despues y sigue llegandome a lo mas profundo...so many years after and still touch down inside me...
Timeless is what it is love it proper banger in 2021🔥 that baseline gives me goose bumps every time
I'm afraid to say I turned 60 this year, yea fuckin 60! But I still look on this as one of my favourite albums of all time, how sad is this, fuckit I don't care, good music is good music.
55 year old break beat soldier here and original old school raver. Your words are truth my friend love and peace from Kent
