Perfection. To hear this on a rig that can really hold that bassline is a treat . That low subby bassline perfectly complimenting the snappy el-b riddim and sugar melody. Blend this into the dub of TJR "just gets better" and your in a truly special place
Possibly one of the greatest 2 step records ever constructed Well ahead of its in time 1998 Meaning , this record represented s sudden shift in tempo in the garage sound , Your always going to have the pitch near the 0 position or minus a semi tone . Groove chronicles ( Noodles & Lewis ) This had amazing production , the vocal was nicely done The drums , jazz sax solo riff , but what really takes this record where no other record at the time was doing , yes all dance , house music not just garage It had a twist !!! Something that's unexpected in the middle ( Bridge with a edge maybe ) An introduction of a D&B Reece Bass under a Subline bass that basically takes the record somewhere else Genius by EL B & Noodles I first heard this record dropped at World Dance in 98 in the Garage Room by DJ Hermit ( 2 as 1)

These tracks sound so much better when they are mixed. They are not meant to be played until the very end, but on this time round I can say I love hearing it from start to finish.
Kevin Johnson Oh cool, thanks so much for responding with the link mate. I didn’t get a notification but just saw it now. Now I have to stay until the baseline drops 😎
"I discovered EL-B and garage at the same time. I heard his Brandy remix, then “Buck n Bury” and “Passage of time” - and I hadn’t even heard “Stone Cold” yet, though I’d heard of Groove Chronicles on something else I didn’t like. Then I heard “Stone Cold” and I was just like “fuck…” - Burial
I was listening to Hot 94 (?) I believe it was called... on satellite channels in the early days of listening to NY radio..: anyhoo, this always reminded me of that jazzy shit that played 5 hours difference from NY:.. When this dropped, it took me straight back to them times. But with a bLINE!
Hearing this for the first time, here in 2020. Big ups to the old school and mad respect for these tunes for paving the way for the producers of today and tomorrow ❤
I was 16 in the late 1990s listening to this on 99.3 Upfront FM. Anyone else remember that station? At that time they were rinsing this and Love Bug and Destiny by DEM 2 and Sincere MJ Cole. Unbelievable time for UK Garage music
Late 90s? You poor thing you missed most of the really good choons babe! I used to feel a bit sorry for the yungens as that's when started to change up. For the worse!
The Aaliyah sample used to perfection, over the rolling bass and skippy drums and lush chords 🔥 1998, the year 2step took over the London airwaves...garage was blasting out of every car and tower block!
Hearing it first time in 2022. Rather chilly night for a Toronto spring. Hella baked. Tacos delish. Pint of stellar ice cold. When the bass kicked in on this I knew I had found magic. The rest is blissful history.
@@TheElectrosmashThis shit is well on it's way to being absolutely timeless. Seemingly so simple, yet touches the depths of your soul. Like how some artists can capture form and beauty with so few strokes of the brush. Genuinely something special.
this track reminds me of my pet rabbit Eevee who died in 2020 :( this was one of the last songs i played around her before she passed. much love to the garage crew 💜
Dajavoo92.3 mission fm 90.6. Raw fm 90.0 freak fm 101.8. rinse fm were some of the back in the day pre sets. Got 2 of these on vinyl along with about a 1000 other tunes. 96-99 4/4 & 2 step. Still got the same 1210s from 95 aswell
Come on if you know u know👍🏻pure 🔥90s Garage and pirate radio stations love this tune was the turning point to dark side garage miss and love them dayzx😈🤛🏻👌🏻
haha and oooooh that's very personal! I love my garage...different tunes for different times but in this comment I guess I mean ones that cut deep and will always make me stop no matter what I'm doing you know? Likely linked to certain memories, very hard but I would say other 4 are: Hobson's choice (the darker mix) You know how to love me - DEA Baffled - Going On KP - I Need A Rhythm ...it's damn hard and there a lot of tunes I will never know the names of but spent plenty of time trying to sing/beatbox to DJ's! Just missed out, Spirit of the sun - Lenny Fontana - the original mash up your car with the bass bins, aw! Nu Birth - Anytime, also needs to be there! Smokin Beats - Dreams Reach And Spin... These all make 9, oh dear If it was a pure party selection or a vocal one then other tunes would come into play... What would yours be if pressed?
@@bitza4444 That's like trying find a needle in a haystack. Sooo many big tunes it gets tricky. 1998 was an epic year for Garage. The beats got more 2 Steppy and there were a lot new productions. Exe Men, Zed Bias, M Dubs, TJ Cases, MJ Cole, Dem2, US Alliance, Groove Chronicles, Steve Gurley, DEA Project, Chris Mack and tons of others from 1998.

If you was there back then, then you know!! ‘SIMPLE’
Jazzy as well what a mad tune my friend
So distinctive and sublime, certainly is stone cold, classic.

Yeah man you know this!!
Got this on test press still! Personal favourite. Big up!
Right or wrong, this is one of the absolute best pure garage tunes ever made?
Possibly one of the greatest 2 step records ever constructed
Well ahead of its in time 1998
Meaning , this record represented s sudden shift in tempo in the garage sound ,
Your always going to have the pitch near the 0 position or minus a semi tone .
Groove chronicles ( Noodles & Lewis )
This had amazing production , the vocal was nicely done
The drums , jazz sax solo riff , but what really takes this record where no other record at the time was doing , yes all dance , house music not just garage
It had a twist !!! Something that's unexpected in the middle ( Bridge with a edge maybe ) An introduction of a D&B Reece Bass under a Subline bass that basically takes the record somewhere else
Genius by EL B & Noodles
I first heard this record dropped at World Dance in 98 in the Garage Room by DJ Hermit ( 2 as 1)

These tracks sound so much better when they are mixed. They are not meant to be played until the very end, but on this time round I can say I love hearing it from start to finish.
any good examples of this song popping up in the mix?
@@NicholasTheMan3 Freek FM, London Underground FM, Pure Magic FM sets from 1997!! Check the station the playlists or specifically 1997 sets.

Graffiti on the lines and garage on the airwaves. I don't think London has known a culturally richer time.
Aaliyah sample were standard and shoutout to the underrated BRANDY she made some of the best samples in garage & jungle at least in my humble opinion
@@kpjlflsknflksnflknsa there have been other times, but we were definitely the first of our kind
Who's still listening in 2020👍🏽
Believe there's a great need to listen to this with the scores of trash tunes being released like a virus!!!
100 👍
2024
I have spent best part of a decade trying find this tune I had the wrong name all along omg I am soooo happy!
Not for this tune, but I've been there and feel your pain/joy.
Hopefully this little reminder puts a smile on your face 😉

Pissed off all my neighbours royally blaring this on my technics 1200s circa 2000. Big tune.

BASSLINE MASSIVE. 😀😀
OLD SKOOL APPRECIATERS.😀
This tune still bangs in 2023
That Aaliyah sample.
“One in a million.”
Aaliyah was gold for early garage & jungle. So many classic samples. RIP sis.
@@Michael.Eddington Yeah for real!! RIP
Thank you for enlightening me ... it hadn’t clicked for all these years .. but now makes sense it was the gorgeous Aaliyah 🙏🏽

Sublime... the Aaliyah samples are always the best music gift 🌟 wonderful track, it takes me to heaven where Aaliyah is dancing to it 💖✨
Takes me back to Cyprus. Great Memories.
For a while "I kept searching for desire" now on my pals birthday I found it and sent it to him, he loved the drop (years back) phew!
What a killer tune for the ladies , mouse
Aaliyah baby :)
I remember hearing EZ DROP this at the Gass Club summer 97. What a tune, Great production. When the Bassinet comes in, game over
Gass club! The sweet smoke smell at the back of the club 😆
Great club..

Top 5 garage songs in my opinion:
Groove Chronicles - Stone Cold
Smokin Beats - Dreams
Roy Davis Jr - Gabrielle
MJ Cole - Sincere
Dem 2 - Destiny
The song is great but becomes something truly special at 2:35
Still got this on 12”. Banger!!!!
