I just saw on the Metalheadz channel that the original wav file doesn't have vocals, so neither does the remaster! A shocking revelation because I love them too!
Loved this when I heard it on Platinum Breakz II 23 years ago and will probably still love it 23 years from now. The progression in this tune is amazing. Nowadays, who would dare to introduce a vocal only after over 4 minutes?! Timeless
That swirling, breathing reverb baked into the drums really puts this over the edge. All the other noises almost sound like they're being wrung out of the beat itself.
I remember Goldie saying that about him and thinking what does he mean by that? Then I hear he made this when he was 17. Now I'm like I get it he was the young great new hope of dnb/break beat.
Wow - what a tune ain’t listened to it in years, someone needs to recreate speed on a Thursday night, what a place locked inside my memory forever, so grateful I had the chance to experience it!!! Yes -!LTJ and Fabio and many others legends, my people!🤔!!!!
This is one bad fucking tune!!! I got this on platinum breaks but the first time i heard this was in the blue note at hoxton sq. Metalheadz sunday sessions.... it blew my mind.... Those were the days man. one!!
frikin`awyea , straight oldschool jungle from the golden ages , wicked tune , i soo luv it, i just discovered this last year got me so surprised , this belong to us the old jungle listeners!! 10 k`s 4 posting this !!!
i dont get how people can claim to like genres like Jungle/D&B and feel some type of way about sampling. Its the foundation of the music. This music was all about vibes.
***** A million times better than the crap he (and the other oldskool Jungle kingz) makes these days with Wickaman & that vocalist! I like to pretend modern DnB never happened LOL!
Easily his best production piece. His sound got more and more minimal and watered down as the years went on which is actually a testament to many artists attempting to be commercially relevant when the entire scene should have remained underground and uncompromised.
Even if the sample is straight outta cd, it takes a lot of vision to use it to such depths. Really before u start making music you think, 'oh its a sample, easy...' but truth is doesnt matter how good a sample is, youve got to make it yours, and create a track. Especially in a tune like this
Beautiful feel. Much better than his post 90's tunes, or virtually anybodies post 90's tunes for that matter LOL. I hope the pads were his idea and keyboard-work, and not just a sample CD job, cos they bring the track to life proper, you get taken away.
@automap it's actually very normal I find myself that tracks with melodies built by the artist/composer are way better then tracks that use pretty much just samples
+Lee Drewitt Actually you're right, the drums are pretty simple, pattern & cuttage wise so I'd call this DnB too. DnB with drums that lean toward the Jungle side rather than standard 2-step drums or 1 bar loops.
I'm not judging it by its pulse. But this track is mostly consisting of other drumming techniques that are off balance. But I like the feel of the bass.
Ha ha now thats the talk of a pair of producers :) I too have read about some disappointing sampling. However there are many ways you can see it. If a track is a complete sample job, thats no worse than using a load of 'clean' presets from VSTs etc. If the artist has crate digged and found a sample that is reiterpreted creatively then I dont mind as much. Given the latter would involve more work. Fair comments though and I miss the Golden era too. Try artists like Paradox, Seba, Solar, Nucleus.
@futurepast1 This is true, it dont matter whether you smoke weed or binge on wife beaters or your a dirty coke-head who takes lines off toilet cysterns, its a masterpiece of spine tingling sonic junglist mystification.
My soulmates are listening to this in 2024 ❤
Word. I get goosebumps when the vocals slip in near the end.
This tune is eternal.

This comment is 16 years old damn
One of the best drum n bass tracks!
This has stood the test of time as my favorite D n B tune, crisp drums. dubbed vocals and lush pads. unbelievable.
Beautiful tune. ❤️
He was 19 when he made this one!
+MemoryLaneCinema wow!
hard to believe
Rumour has it he had a lot of help/babysitting in the process though.. Same with Your Sound
rumous has it that Elvis is still alive.
Didn’t you know time and age is a scam
even in 2020......a different tune. unclassifiable and timeless
i find it implausible that 5 people could genuinely dislike this.
probably bad speakers :D
Goosebumps and chills throughout but especially when the vox kick in.
Loved this when I heard it on Platinum Breakz II 23 years ago and will probably still love it 23 years from now. The progression in this tune is amazing. Nowadays, who would dare to introduce a vocal only after over 4 minutes?! Timeless
This song never gets old. To me, this drum and bass track brings about the same atmospheric vibe as “Hot Stuff” from Roni Size.
Hot Stuff is hot stuff.
That swirling, breathing reverb baked into the drums really puts this over the edge. All the other noises almost sound like they're being wrung out of the beat itself.
This really is a work of art!
I get chills right in the beginning when the song builds up
+Ominiumshadow24 I hear u!
The Luke Skywalker of break-beatz.
This is when D 'n' B was at it's best.
I miss those days.
I remember Goldie saying that about him and thinking what does he mean by that? Then I hear he made this when he was 17. Now I'm like I get it he was the young great new hope of dnb/break beat.
@@ronniepassley4156He produced Your Sound when he was 17....not this one.
Intricate and wonderful layering!

light & darkness. I've got so much love for this tune.
This is one bad fucking tune!!! I got this on platinum breaks but the first time i heard this was in the blue note at hoxton sq. Metalheadz sunday sessions.... it blew my mind.... Those were the days man.
one!!
lovley tune.... really chilled and hypnotic
I could listen to this tune everyday... Love it 💣
beautiful tune
Everything on Metalheadz was amazing.
True!
J Majik is a legend
frikin`awyea , straight oldschool jungle from the golden ages , wicked tune , i soo luv it, i just discovered this last year got me so surprised , this belong to us the old jungle listeners!! 10 k`s 4 posting this !!!
Back then he was great, and young too. Metalheadz=Every Track a Classic
J Majik one of the best producers in the history of drum n bass
Tune :) i remember buying platinum breakz II when it came out, good times
i dont get how people can claim to like genres like Jungle/D&B and feel some type of way about sampling. Its the foundation of the music. This music was all about vibes.
Preach man
What you mean by that? Not sounding disrespectful
Are you from Carolina?
@@tms.midi.199x He's saying you don't really love dnb and jungle if you are against sampling because its a key part of the genre
amazing piece of music
***** A million times better than the crap he (and the other oldskool Jungle kingz) makes these days with Wickaman & that vocalist! I like to pretend modern DnB never happened LOL!
+ncshuriken Hear, hear my good sir.
+ncshuriken applause, applause
Timeless track !! btw i remember reading that Sade was sampled in this track .
This a GEM.
art at it's finest
was just digging out some old cassette mix-tapes my mate made me in '97 and was so good to hear this one again ;) nice one!
Just got the vinyl in Tokyo!
Beautiful
I've got this on white label so I didn't know what it was called for a long time. Still so beautiful 🔥🎧🙏
Easily his best production piece.
His sound got more and more minimal and watered down as the years went on which is actually a testament to many artists attempting to be commercially relevant when the entire scene should have remained underground and uncompromised.
Everyone was sampling back in those days. It’s how this music was born...
Legendary....☝️👍
I CAN HEAR THE AUDIO AGAIN, ITS NOT BUGGED ANYMORE!! AW YEAH
this music delivers me to the edge of space!:D
Beautifull music
This is the bomb-diggity sir!

PICLex a proclamation of pulchritudinous proportions
@@rashoietolan3047 Up Fulcrum Rovers too mate!
MORE MAJIK
unbelievable how good this guy used to be....
pure class
all about the vocals at 4:15
The vocals work nice on this tune but it's the beat and melody that marks this tune above so many others.
Truly first rate tunage.
Damn this is 🔥 P R O G R E S S 🔥
Only nearing a 100,000 views and its been on RUclips for 14 years
I love the vocal only after 4mins of playing
Agreed my friend.
pff
just enjoy the tune ffs, its a great one
i dont care if its sampled or not if i like it i like it
simple as that
well done!!!
billbeanhat . .
you my friend are sooo correct. Back then the Metalheads crew, LTJ, Adam F were defining D 'n B.
killer track
This song makes me want to nurture a lost baby crab to health only to then split it open and find excalibur hidden inside.
Forgot the rocketship
(_)(_)===========D~~~~~``
12 people,will never know.
Awesome tune. Really tight and smooth. Would go well mixed with some LTJ style Liquid DNB.
1997 One in the Jungle@BBC Radio 1
nice 1
Tuff!...👈
Over reverbed but in a good way, like you sitting at a corner and watching other people dancing.
Beautiful feel. Much better than his post 90's tunes, or virtually anybodies post 90's tunes for that matter LOL.
I hope the pads were his idea and keyboard-work, and not just a sample CD job, cos they bring the track to life proper, you get taken away.
omg this is hilarious tune!!! big up for uploading
@automap it's actually very normal I find myself that tracks with melodies built by the artist/composer are way better then tracks that use pretty much just samples
going to report this in. For being very good, let them know too
@ncshuriken rither way, he created a masterpiece
REAL Jungle...
+ncshuriken not Jungle! drum and bass!!!
Lee Drewitt
I'd call this Jungle, not DnB.
+ncshuriken no i think not
+Lee Drewitt an i dont see anyone else calling it jungle!
+Lee Drewitt Actually you're right, the drums are pretty simple, pattern & cuttage wise so I'd call this DnB too. DnB with drums that lean toward the Jungle side rather than standard 2-step drums or 1 bar loops.
damn

To all the sample bashers...
Don't sweat the technique
global elite in the middle

This is true, it dont matter whether you smoke weed or binge on wife beaters or your a dirty coke-head who takes lines off toilet cysterns, its a masterpiece of spine tingling sonic junglist mystification.
@ncshuriken Couldnt have said it more poetically myself, I can see by the use of your words that you dont sample, not even random noizes of the world?
LOL, he did
What about, You dont know,,,,Deadly deep subs original and Got to/threshold ?
I dont think its silly, lets hope this is an example of a fully original track!
Brilliant build up to the song... how it finishes is intense... one of my fav DnB songs period...
