fun fact my nephew is the son of 'DJ Hermit' the man who coined the name 'Speed Garage'. I used to make him the nuttiest jingles for his radio show to :)
I would love to see you do a video on *2-Step* (another UK dance-genre creation). For those who don't know: 2-Step evolved from UK garage in the late 90s, and it eventually spawned the creation of Dubstep and Grime in the early 2000s. The extreme level of beat syncopation in 2-Step was such a radical departure from other house genres (which all had a regularity to them). House music is characterised by its 4-to-the-floor kick drum (no matter what the BPM is) but 2-Step removed that fundamental element and instead it shifted the kick drums to various uneven irregular off-beats. This was a pretty radical departure for a so-called "house genre" at the time. Also, the 'swung' hi-hats, random skippy chord-stabs and choppy vocals all gave a stuttery but super funky vibe to the music! Back in the day I would love dancing to Steve Gurley's various 2-Step mixes, as well as tracks like: Groove Chronicles ("Life's What You Make It" and "1999"), Zed Bias ("Neighbourhood El-B remix"), MJ Cole ("Introduction" and "Loverboy - MJ Cole London Dub Mix"), El-B ("The Club" and "Lyrical Tempo"), Gass ("Dark - 2 As 1 Remix") and so many others. I did not like it when cheesy commercial artists started jumping on the 2-step bandwagon though. Tracks like "Sweet like Chocolate" were total trash 🤮, but somehow people claim that this track is quintessential 2-Step and that it's a good representation of the 2-Step genre ..... it absolutely is NOT (and I say that speaking as someone who was part of that London scene from the very beginning).
Yeah agreed, +1 vote from me for a 2 step video. The amount of new music genres coming out of England during that period was wild. The beat in classics like *Gorgon Sound* by *Horsepower Productions* was completely alien to USA audiences at the time, because it was unlike anything they'd ever heard before. A 2 step analysis would be so great.
As a Teenager I was highly influenced by House-Music. In 1994 I fell in love with Jungle. In 1997 Speed Garage entered my life. And, OH BOY, I love all these styles till today. Nice to know, where this "Nuff Respect" Vocal came from. I used it for a Jungle-Track by myself (you can find it on my channel) but sampled it from another source. ;) Thank you for this cool video. I'm a 90s Raver and that will never change. :)
@@Estuerathe time stretch with that aliasing the akai s950/1000 nailed that sound. It was that sound in the early dnb jungle garage scene but im partial to the 950
The time stretching algorithm in the 950 and 1000 is the same. These samplers got released at the same time. The S950 is more limited in memory and user interface _but_ it does have an analog filter which gives it a darker sound that some people prefer indeed. The S1000 was the true studio work horse though.
What's amusing about this video for me is that I actually borrowed a friend's dub siren that had a built in analogue delay so that I could replicate dub sirens for various bass music projects I wanted to make. I sampled the crap out of it at various settings. It turns out all I needed to use was my MS-20 Mini... Which I strangely never thought of doing even though I own one. So once again, Jonas taught me something I didn't know how to do despite producing electronic music for over twenty years!
Awesome job as always. I’m a Trance guy since the late 90s, but i also enjoyed some good Jungle/DnB, Speed Garage, Eurodance and Techno. You brought back a lot of great memories
Brilliant. I wish you'd post more but when you do drop a new video you know it's going to be epic and this is no exception. You're laying bare all the mind blowing sounds from my 90s clubbing days and I love it.
Another awesome video, absolutely love this series. I'm happy to report that speed garage is still alive and well; here in the UK you can easily hear some speedy g every weekend in any city with an good "underground" dance music scene eg. Bristol, Sheffield and of course London! Artists like Silva Bumpa and Badger making major waves with their heavy speed garage bootlegs, many Soundcloud labels releasing tons of free download tracks is keeping the scene thriving with fresh music, and not forgetting the legends of the 2000s such as Big Ang and the thousands of free party 4x4 DJs which brought speed garage together with bassline and jackin' house - epic times.
This is incredible. Loved seeing you make the alarm instead of just using a sample. And the original mpc timestretch was mad satisfying! Easiest sub ever
Zowel die drums als die wubby bass zijn zó spot on. Heerlijk. Het mini-arpje klinkt ook als een knipoog naar zowel Mills' The Bells als PPK's Resurrection. 🥰
You're so good at finding and recreating the sounds of old genres. This is another great video in your series. I particularly loved the timestretched "Come bad boy" vocal. It's amazing that just turning the big knob on the Akai can transport us back to the '90s.
Thanks! In the video I turned the data knob to select the already timestretched sample. Actually timestretching is a bit more involved, a few parameters need to be set and the sampler needs to process for 10+ seconds. (Mentioning this to be complete)
I (and probably many others) can use the KSHMR pack to make sounds like the 2023 hit chart, but can't make it sound as crude as the 90's. This channel helps me so much!
Altijd weer mooi om mensen bezig te zien die echt weten waar ze mee bezig zijn. Gewoon echt weten waar alles vandaan komt, hoe het destijds ontstaan is en gemaakt is. Echt heel netjes. Super leuk om naar de kijken en luisteren. Je bent een soort van geschiedenis leraar als het gaat om elektronische dans muziek :-)
Not my favorite 90's genre, but I always enjoy and appreciate your break down videos. They are such an inspiration and also a history lesson with all references etc.
Always loved speed garage and sometimes still try to integrate some elements of it in my music, you did a great job catching that speed garage vibe! Keep em coming!
Such a great track and awesome video as always. Thanks so much Jonas. I love your videos, they are so inspiring, especially for someone still obsessed with 90s dance music.
if im not mistaken the bass in ripgroove may be the "dred bass", which a reversed bass stab from the first future music sample cd iirc, dont quote me on that tho i could be wrong
When deconstructing the bass which (DJ Hybrid uses a lot and gave away free in one of his free sample packs), I decided to reverse the sample to see what it sounded like for a tune I was making. Here's what I found: I think they used an S950 due to the grit, but they sampled one note from a TB-303 and reversed it. Of course, the 303 needs to be lowpassed a little bit, and the envelope amount needs to be turned down a little bit, but you end up getting a really similar sound. I might do a tutorial on it myself tbh.
Great video and that swing on the drums is sensational mate 👏 only thing missing In my opinion is a nice snappy slapper of a clap.. but that’s personal preference of course.. I’ve made some tracks that infuse speed garage with hard house and they sound great together!
Niiiice! Great video brotha. I’ve been trying to recreate the speed garage sound in my studio for years, but this track is spot on. Nice job on sourcing the sounds, and I appreciate the history lessons.
I love all your videos, I feel like all these old production technics can be lost over time but are all very very Intresting tricks ! I think learning all these old technics from the past can help make new music ! Not just repeating old genre tropes (which is fine too )
When doing the jungle video I learned a lot about the origin of the sounds, the influence of the London reggea scene especially is something I didn't know much about until researching for the video. That's also when I realized the very strong connection between jungle and speed garage which lead to me making this video.
Fantastic video and track and always. I really appreciate how you show you need so little elements to create an amazing track. Very nice editing on the music video, it was very engaging.
Great stuff! I've been looking forward to a new episode. Even though I never was a huge fan of house music back in the day, I love experimenting with different genres nowadays and your videos are a great source of inspiration! Please keep them coming!
Echt een onwijs goede video man! Veel geleerd en op een hele fijne manier uitgelegd. Ook echt leuk dat je de geschiedenis van bepaalde geluiden laat zien. Kijk uit naar je volgende videos!
I really like your videos since I always learn some new bit about EDM music genres and useful sound/arrangement techniques. And they are entertaining, too 👍
I used to try programming garage beats on my old Boss DR202 but I could never get that swing (so it don't mean a thing). I guess I'm just all rigid, like a breadstick.
for me the double99 bassline has always sound very similar to the one in dred bass, i don't know if they are the same tho as i have never done a side by side comparison
yo dude. seriously always enjoyed your breakdowns when making a lil track. I havnt had time to get far into it, but i dig it. looking nice and distinguished since i first started checking your stuff out!
Always a treat to watch your new videos! May I ask what desk you have? Seems really nice and I’m looking for a large one myself with room for keyboard below.
Hi Jonas, your videos are always informative and you pay a lot of effort in it! I think that make them so fun to watch them. Could you give some direction about the way you created that bass sound?

2 Step is closely related indeed and its somewhere on my possible video list.
and dubstep then ^^
like we're back in the late 90s or early 00s xD
or maybe some future garage
uk garage not to be confused with the earlier speed garage sound.
@@Estuera Would love some 2 step videos!

I listened to so much techno music in the 90's - it's still where my heart lives - to see somebody break it down, and recreate it gives me hope. MORE!

90s raver here too ❤️ forever. I bought so much vinyl garage in 99-2001 which I still have.

I have entered a Time Machine WOW, I would have bought this on vinyl back in the day. Once again you have smashed it out of the park. Brilliant
Thanks!
Likewise, fantastic production.
Absolutley nailed it!. I spent a fortune on speed garage vinyls back in the day and this track could easily be one of them. Kudos to you ❤
Thanks!

@@Estuera100% true
You once again totally nailed it! Brings back old memories of times where all made money was spent on records.

Wow, that's the first time I understood the Amen Break (and I even programmed it into my sequencer already).
This channel is amazing. love the attention to history and detail
Make a video on the tx81z patch please!
2:33 Sorry, I haven't got further than the intro yet - I started listening to Double 99 and now I'm well and truly down a speed garage rabbit hole...
Can't blame you 😁
Banger of a tune! Still own all my 90’s speed garage vinyl. Loop Da Loop/RIP/Double 99 were tops for me, but this track hits just as hard. Well done!
Thank you very much! Some of the history was quite new to me. Very nicely done! Great content! Thank you!!!
One of the best video I've seen on the genre !
Brilliant! Brings back memories of Camden Palace and Brixton Academy.
I would have to say that you really nailed the sound. Brought back so many memories from nights out in London in the early naughties.
Thank you my friend, good video, keep working in awesome stuff!!!!

Be great to see you do a video on the 'Mixdown' process of all your tracks in general
Yes, its requested quite regularly. Thinking about it.
10:19 that reminds me of "PPK - Resurrection" a little bit🎶
I have never listened to Speed Garage... this was an education.
Hope it was at least a bit interesting.
It was.. I did actually recognise some of the tracks and I had no idea it borrowed so much from jungle 😳.
Great video as always 👍

At 6.10 i can hear 'Cleveland City records, 'Hey Mr Dj, i do prefer synthetic stab rather than the 90s bass stab, still ' great production.
Now this is a banger!
Thanks!
Fantastic stuff as always! I wondered what genre was coming next! =)
It was already on my list for 2 years. Happy to finally get to it.
Hello you are awesome estuera
You are awesome ;)
Always a treat to watch your new videos! May I ask what desk you have? Seems really nice and I’m looking for a large one myself with room for keyboard below.
Its an Ikea Bekant desk actually that I hacked a bit to add the drawer. It's a bit wobbly but stable, not a perfect solution though.
Hi Jonas, your videos are always informative and you pay a lot of effort in it! I think that make them so fun to watch them.
Could you give some direction about the way you created that bass sound?
Idea for a next video: Klubbheads style video, with the famous bamboo bass. ❤
in addition: your hardware collection is growing more and more 😂
Thanks.
Unfortunately there is no 'quick' way to guide you to creating the bass sound. As its FM based quite minor tweaks make a huge difference.
The basic idea though is to give operator 2 (that is modulating op1) a pretty slow adsr curve to get this 'opening filter' effect.
@@Estuera thanks, I will try to recreate it with FM8 or a DX200
Estuera! Would you make a video creating a Goa/Psy Trance like we're back in the mid 90's??
Its on my list but not sure when I will get to it. Psy is one of the few things I never produced before so will need a lot of research.
Hi loved your video younus , ...
I think you explain things very clearly .
Question:-
Do you know the track don't call me baby by Madison Avenue
In the intro ,there are those plucks ....going with the drumloop ...
Can u help me and tell me what's that ? , I'm addicted to that sound 😅.
Isn't that a muted rhythm guitar?
They used a sample from "Pino D'Angiò - Ma Quale Idea" so it's an actual guitar player.
Do I recognize that timestretched “combat” sample from somewhere? 2 unlimited?
Most probably a jungle or (happy) hardcore track. I'm very sure 2unlimited never used it though.
