I'm 50 now and been addicted to drum n bass since day 1 and I gotta say intelligent is my fav sub genre ,the blue note back in the day was the best times
This tune requires the volume to be turned up to maximum boost I used to go insane when this tune come on a definite floor filler 😮 big up tango and Ratty true pioneers bringing it large 👟👟👟👟👟👟🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is what's important that even beyond the grave people like Tango are still touching and improving peoples lives with the music they made. I was blessed to be there first time round but to see people commenting here about only just discovering this magical era of music and it meaning something to them does nothing but cement my belief in this being nothing but special. We've all been trying to replicate this innovation for years. A True Pioneer!
Ello Gary,89/90 wow 🤩 didn’t we have sumit special so wish we could time travel,those were the best of times 👌really really special times ..stay safe bud one ☝️ love ❤️
This tune is the first I ever herd of any underground music. I was in a large warehouse waiting for truck to be loaded on a damp foggy night, 3am. Forklifts buzzing around and this tune blasting throughout the hole place. Very eerie .. I was 12 years old. Never forgot that sound nor the mental pictures of that warehouse everytime I hear this. Awesome.
As a 43 year old I can easily say, we were witness and privileged to the birth of the greatest music scene that has ever existed! ...And as a teenager/young man in the early 1990's I was so blessed with these sounds vibrating the walls throughout my mum and dads house......"pissing them right off".......hehe
Nuff respect to the bad boy Ratty, r,i,p Tango, a fine producer, one of the best, and Ratty's chopping style still to this day inspires me on the wheels of steel. I still listen weekly his mixes along with some other originators. I and well as other still get much enjoyment from the 91-93 golden era of an evolutionary leap in music. Much love and respect to all the oldskool ravers, dj's, producers. Heaven surely has gor all of this time recorded so one day we can all relive the glory!
Heard this as a kid didn't remember it until I a few days ago been bumping this and the remix ever since. P.s. thus us great music 5o do martial arts to.
REST IN PEACE, JAMIE. WE ALL WILL NEVER EVER LET YOUR MEMORY BE FORGOTTEN. YOU WERE THE ADDICTION FOR MY GENERATION AND DESERVE MORE PROPS THAN THE PRODIGY.
Nah, sorry mate, he doesn't deserve more props than The Prodigy. The Prodigy have a body of work that is second to none in dance music history. Tango was brilliant but no match for Liam Howlett, and this is coming from an old skool raver from 90-94 when I stopped going coz the music got shit! The Prodigy are treated very unfairly because they were mainstream and not underground.
The prodigy as a mainstream group released waaay too much. They did cross over and were experimental. In that some of the stuff didn't work. Tango and ratty made less. This track does sound like the embodiment of breakbeats/darkcore/jungle stuff that works wonders with the right speakers. Sometimes comparisons are misleading. Some originate, others immitate, the rest appreciate
I have lost count how many classic anthems were made during my raving days so many timeles classics that I know I'll be shaking a leg to when I'm a very old geezer .A big shout out to everyone who made my memories unforgettable... Bless👊🏽
I had this tune going round and round my head after a night at The Sanctuary, Milton Keynes one time. A whole three hours travelling home to York. Bloody phet!
He’s a legend bro I have this copy in my attic I remember being so high when this came on in the club in nottm called Gold...I went nuts hahaha good times never to be repeated. 😪
Sleep tight tango. J man couldn't believe it man when I heard. I can still see you busting funky dance moves in the kitchens when we were just teenagers. Hope your raving up there brother. See you in the next life for a dance off pal.

im 19, i got into DnB like 2 years ago, this song is so absolutely cheesy and old but man ain't it a banger. It reminds me of Buck Bumble's main theme, thats probably the reason I enjoy this

RIP Tango , such shocking news , only just discovered his passing on your page. I have this brilliant double side on vinyl, huge tune back then and still playing it over 25 years later says it all.
Me as a 19 yr old want a timeline portraying the evolution house. Cuz i have a playlist with 'random' selected house tracks that turned around to be 80% from 1992, wich amazed me because its style really speaks to me. Songs like the 'crimal minds - oldskool soldier' and 'searching for my rizla - ratpack'.
I'm 54 and lived through acid house and the rave scene best years. Even back then, Ratpack were classed as the cheesiest shyte, and proper ravers wouldn't waste their time listening to that crap. There are so many good tunes, there is really no need, and no excuse, to listen to cheese.
This was very Basement Records style from that era. For me this definitely had more of a techno influence. Hence jungle techno. Personally I wouldn't even use the jungle prefix. Opposed to pure breakbeat hardcore or pure jungle. With a dark edge. Definitely my preferred side to uk hardcore. Very similar to Tango's other tracks like "Time Bomb", Recoil, Intrigue, Further intrigue etc techy edged, with futuristic synth elements, crunching beats, dark sub bass and thumping kick drums. Some of their tracks even use acid elements. Anyway, back from the detour.. Badass tune anyhow and my preferred track on this classic 12".
This is proper hardcore. deep rugged baselines and beats only for those that know! none of the classic happy same old same old shit.........Listening to this tune for the first time ever back then was buzzing...........still is!
Lived just down the road.great raves then nice walk home in morning.stop for a newspaper and a can of coke.home and then not knowing what to do with myself for rest of the day.sleep not being an option.
So frequently played in 93 that it almost seemed like a who could do ‘something different with it’ job, as you could go out some nights and everyone would play it. Well, Paradise Club on a Friday any way...Joe 90 always had some nice cuts up his sleeve. He was a tidy technician.
I'm 48 this year and can listen to this all day ..
Me to on both counts lol
Me 3 on all counts..
Snap ,1973.
I’m 53 still can’t get enough 😂let’s gooo 🎶😱🎶😍
Still on the fantazia trip !!! Top times. ....
I’m 53 and tunes like this still give me goose bumps, bring back the weekenders…..
Darkside jungle techno '93 style. That bassline! What a bassline! One of my favorite tunes of that era. Tango the legend. R.I.P.
❤❤❤
Full support and deepest sympathies. 😢
I need more bassline!!!
Proper hard-core tune.... listening Nov 2024

Rave music will be here today and gone tomorrow, they said, its a flash in the pan, they said
How wrong they were i said
Popping out the two step at 56 years old with colon cancer. Rave till the grave .🙏
Absolutely classic from back in the day - 89 to 94. What an amazing time to be alive.

This tune is the first I ever herd of any underground music.
I was in a large warehouse waiting for truck to be loaded on a damp foggy night, 3am.
Forklifts buzzing around and this tune blasting throughout the hole place. Very eerie ..

When that bass kicks in I feel that tingling🔥
Banging tune ...everyone at Menace Maidehead lost their minds when Ratty played this in 92 ❤
Nice1 @Adrian. Not sure if we went to see Ratty, but I remember Dr S Gachet playing there when the snowballs were in town ! 😮
Nuff respect to the bad boy Ratty, r,i,p Tango, a fine producer, one of the best, and Ratty's chopping style still to this day inspires me on the wheels of steel.

'89-'92 for me 🎉
Only discovered this track today, absolutely love it
Heard this as a kid didn't remember it until I a few days ago been bumping this and the remix ever since. P.s. thus us great music 5o do martial arts to.
47 love it . Never try and not be who you are . Remember where you come from .
How good is this... absolute beast of a tune...
REST IN PEACE, JAMIE. WE ALL WILL NEVER EVER LET YOUR MEMORY BE FORGOTTEN. YOU WERE THE ADDICTION FOR MY GENERATION AND DESERVE MORE PROPS THAN THE PRODIGY.

The music didn’t go shit you just weren’t looking in the right place
I’d rate tango alongside Liam howlett tbh
The prodigy as a mainstream group released waaay too much. They did cross over and were experimental. In that some of the stuff didn't work. Tango and ratty made less. This track does sound like the embodiment of breakbeats/darkcore/jungle stuff that works wonders with the right speakers.

52 now nd still sounds great. Luv it BANDIT

`Im bigger and bolder and rougher and tougher in otherwords sucker there is no other!'
What a tune still dark as ever 25+ years later
Facts 👌🔥
I can still remember one of my pill's coming up 🤪 every time I hear this tune!!
I have lost count how many classic anthems were made during my raving days so many timeles classics that I know I'll be shaking a leg to when I'm a very old geezer .A big shout out to everyone who made my memories unforgettable...
Bless👊🏽

I had this tune going round and round my head after a night at The Sanctuary, Milton Keynes one time. A whole three hours travelling home to York. Bloody phet!
Had some good nights at The Sanctuary MK back in the day.
Heard it in the byo too my man loved it
Night night
Takes me back to my teens in the UK. I can’t believe this absolute Stirling track was a B side.
Classic tune - takes me back to the day - Don FM locked
Ratty did me DVD's of all his samples when he retired once. He keeps coming out for Retirement Parties. Hopefully will continue to do so ;)
He’s a legend bro I have this copy in my attic I remember being so high when this came on in the club in nottm called Gold...I went nuts hahaha good times never to be repeated. 😪
but can i have those samples?
Would you be willing to put the samples up sometime?
Minge teasing bastard
How was this not a bigger tune back in the day? Such a sexy bassline
It was
Depends where you went.
just been caught dancing at work ha ha , this double a side still does it, can it really be almost 25 years ago, takes me back to The Astoria
samgub I just said the same to my mate. Astoria was the nuts.
A.W.O.L
Reminds me of the astoria too. Orange nights dancing on the balcony.
