Jungle is the ultimate soundtrack for when you're trying to finish a project while hopelessly sleep-deprived. Fast-paced and varied enough to keep you aware, but not so chaotic or loud that it monopolizes your few active brain cells.
Ahh i still remember that era as a teen. Electronic music that had cosmic, spiritual, new agey, ethnic, and jazzy sounds, giving that utopian and exotic feeling. Unfortunately it lost it afterwards, but thankfully we still get these mixes.
in Amtrak by Trace, the vocal sample perfectly summarizes jungle/hardcore breakbeat in all its manifestations - "Here's a group trying to accomplish one thing, that is, to get to the future!", which basically corresponds to Mark Fisher's Hauntology in music.
Ape Escape OST was by Soichi Terada, incredible composer and absolute legend of a bloke. You can check his work too, maybe starting from his Sumo Jungle EP. Oh, and more important, i'd recommend you see him live if you get the chance
@@maxmzln3407wow, thnks for the info, just turned on Sumo Jungle. i have yet to gone down the deep rabbit hole of 90s dnb producers showcsed in PS1 nd PS2 games
Love that Dark Ruins got somewhat of a remix in Ape Escape 3 as Mount Amazing Part 2. Playing Ape Escape 3 then 1 and realizing the similarities was really cool. Bomb soundtrack in all three games.
for anyone unaware, all the characters featured onscreen are from "slap happy rhythm busters" which is one of the most vibrant looking titles on the PSX (quick edit to elaborate: i feel like including a few fun facts about the game because it never really caught on with a lot of people, which is sad because the game's pretty cool.) -it was one of the first games to employ cel-shading which was pretty rare to see out of a psx game at the time -the game was a 2.5d fighter (3d characters on a 2d plane), and very possibly the first of it's kind, i can't find any other fighters of that style before this game came out, so there's no way for me to be 100% sure, it definitely predates the rumble fish by a while -level 3 supers are performed by playing a rhythm minigame, similar to rise's super in P4U2 -the game features reworked characters from another fighting game made by the same devs called "vs." it's a neat game that definitely deserves your attention if you're looking for something different to try out, there's not much documented on it but guilewinquote has a short video on it, and the super best friends played it on their fisticuffs series, so consider checking those out if you want to see more on this game
@@langoblian it has a side step feature but it was slow with insane cooldown so there was no reason to use it. technically that makes it 3D but in any matches or playthroughs you watch it plays out very much as a 2.5D.
I think I finally came across my tribe of people here. I always felt like I was the onnnnnnly one that loved this type of music. Great to see others that love this music because it’s truly magnetic & amazing. Great track!!
So glad someone bothered to do this. The mid 90's were the era of jungle/ drum & bass and there were so many game soundtracks featuring them. These mixes make these tunes available to the wider public all in one tidy mix. Great stuff.
I put this mix on as something to have in the background while I blasted through a last minute project I had procrastinated on waaay too long. For whatever reason, this ended up putting me in the most intense focus mode I've ever experienced. What should have taken days was accomplished in a matter of hours, thank you
I play this in the store when its not my manager opening. Genuinely sounds so much better than the radio and you can tell on the other employees too. This shit is just way too hard
Additional info for anyone who's also trying to find these tracks (Also since I notice people keep asking, the game is Slap Happy Rhythm Busters, and no the girl on the thumbnail is not Chun Li, apparently her name is Mia) 11:15 This also goes by "Trippin High" by Bjorne Lynne 17:02 This is the Ending 1 Theme of Diver's/Dolphin's Dream 34:02 Apparently this was done by Debbie Harry of Blondie? Cannot confirm that but that's what I've read 1:08:08 This is not track 53 of DDR 5th Mix, but "Ending 1 (Music List)" 1:33:11 There is very little of this game on TH-cam and as far as I can see, 0 uploads of its OST 1:46:28 This also goes by "Wait" by Waterloop (Or possibly "Waterloop" by Wait?) 2:14:39 Also called "Omni Trio - Secret Life" 2:23:11 Done by the Japanese band "The Sleepwalk", also shows up on their album "Phantasmagoria I" - All songs done for "Planet DOB" (How do you think, sometimes I breathe, some kind of love, etc.) Are done by the Japanese band Date of Birth - Will fill with any additional info if I can find it for some other tracks here 8:00 This is "Oingo Boingo Book" from "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future", it should play in the game's Extras menu (Almost thought this was mislabeled, could not find it on the OST playlists and it sounded nothing like the rest of the soundtrack, but it is there) 1:08:56 Also not track 20 (track 30 on the database I'm using), titled "gentle stress (AMD SEXUAL MIX)" by MR. DOG feat. DJ SWAN The next three are not corrections or renaming, but some interesting artists you may have heard of elsewhere 0:42:34 and 1:04:39 were done by Kemmei Adachi, who has also composed (among others), for Freedom Wars , the Locoroco and Grand Turismo Series, and funnily enough the infamous Japanese only arcade game Half Life Survivor 2:07:40 was done by Zuntata, the house band of Taito, known for their eclectic sound. You may have heard their works in notable Taito franchises such as Space Invaders, Arkanoid, or Groove Coaster, among others 0:29:05 was done by Haroumi Hosono, perhaps best known on TH-cam for his 1984 work "Watering a Flower" which was commissioned by the retail company Muji. Outside of this, he inspired genres such as Shibuya-kei and city pop, and is the leader and founder of Yellow Magic Orchestra
Wow, well done! 8) Just to add: - "menu theme (toca 2 touring cars)" is actually EZ Rollers - Retro th-cam.com/video/9ySxxVOHW7A/w-d-xo.html - the Wait/Waterloop (whatever) tune was written by Prob. aka Dice
@@80psu nice bro! Add any others if you find some. Nice catch on Toca 2, that and some other songs sound like very recognizable liquid, so I'm wondering if there's some others that are licensed out. The Rollcage Stage 2 OST for example seems to be all established people in the space (Omni trio themselves, Aquasky, Dom and Roland, etc). Still trying to find some of those DDR tracks too.
This selection fits so well that I thought it was a remix of the originals. When I was searching for psx ost this was 100% the vibe I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time and sharing this beautiful selection.
I rememeber being a kid and loving video game music like this. Fast forward 15-20 years after learning what jungle and drum and base is, and now its completely blowing my mind how all this amazing music was with me all this time.
So one night i was just contemplating how i like DnB, when none of my friends nor family listen to this type of music. Today i found the answer, i didn't realized how many Drum n bass music was in the early ps1 era, and i played alot of ps1 back then! Thank you for uploading this gem!
Oh and when i listen to that Raycrisis bass line, goddamn it you took me back man! Sitting at 6AM, its raining outside, playing this on the psx while eating french fries. Good times!
@@octoglazed3693 yea the Raycrisis track is one of my favs same with Raystorm. Shmups especially from this time always had sick dnd/breaks in the games. It's funny you mention it I was just gonna leave a comment about it.
not only are both of these mixes filled with brilliant jungle music, they're also masterfully mixed. well done and thank you for your passion! I hope you know you will be remembered for this.
This one rips! Even better than N64. Probably because so many more artist wanted to explore the CD technology the games had on the PS. These tracks hold up so well and it’s crazy to see how much care and dedication the music designers had making these. Very deep game selection too mad props. Thanks for the time you took making these.
Have come back to this particular mix so many times now... Seems only right to say - THANK YOU, RYLAND! Dudes not only collected a sick compilation of tracks, he actually mixed them! And thoughtfully too, this is by far my favourite "PlayStation jungle" mix - it's not even a competition imo
This is probably the best mix I've ever heard in my life, thank you so much, this is so good, nostalgic, I was 11years old when PS1 came out, glory days
So excited to see another upload from you. Your N64 jungle mixes made my first 2 years as a dad a pleasure. The joy and dances my kids get when they hear Bomberman will always bring joy to my heart. We truly appreciate your craft and the journey it lead in finding all these gems. Keep it up boss, much love.
Huge thank you to everyone for the kind words. This has been a year long passion project, and is only the first snippet of the full Playstation jungle mix. I'm releasing the next parts over the coming months. Appreciate your support & tips are welcome: ko-fi.com/rylandkurshenoff
Currently studying for a qualification and man, this mix has been the only thing keeping me focused and locked in, thank you dude. The visuals look so stylish, wish we got this game outside of Japan.
Whenever im editing hours of footage, I need something thats lowkey and not distracting to listen to This is the perfect mix for that IMO Ive probably watched this whole video 6 times over in the last 2 days alone
I’ve never had a Sony console in my life but after listening for just ten minutes I feel like an entire childhood’s worth of PlayStation nostalgia has been uploaded directly to my brain
Oh my goodness, this mix is so MASTERFULLY done! I rarely ever comment on videos but this mix not only induces extreme nostalgia, but it makes me feel like a little kid discovering something life-changing for the first time. Thank you so much for this, best wishes to you my friend. +1 sub.
Yea, I keep listening to this and I love it more and more each time. This has been jungle month for me. Listen to good music all the time! It's good for you! Keep it on all the time!
I'm here for this exactly. I was expecting low quality remixes of tunes that were done to death by a million other people, but got an eclectic mix of wonderful tracks of tunes from games even I, a diehard VGM enthusiast has never heard of before. Solid aural gold.
@@vo7tage All of this originated im talking music wise from the Black community. Rock n Roll Hip hop jazz blues gospel house techno Dj'ing breakbeats country rnb And most important SOUL are came from and originated from the Black American Man tho. but credit to the Japanese and to the westerners for creating these amazing video games and technologies.
Got to add to the chorus of people in the comments: as a "retired" DJ who fixates on this shit this mix is so flawlessly blended , structured and executed. Peaks, valleys, ITS SO GOOD. The nostalgic selections from golden era games just makes this one of the best mixdowns on this entire site.
It's amazing how much DnB/Jungle was on PSX. I knew it too back then, but there's so much more. There were some songs from a weird game called Gekitotsu Larc En Ciel (from the J-Rock Band Larc En Eiel) I was trying to rip, now it's so easy to rip the songs. But I've also been listening to Jungle since the 90's, though I was in NYC and it was super hard to get tracks here back then. Apparently it was even popular in Japan at the time, too, and it makes for very good video game music. But I never stopped listening, and still do.
My favorites 31:08 how do you think (planet dob) 1:55:41 some kinds of love (planet dob) 2:01:40 dark ruins (ape escape) 2:14:38 secret life (rollcage stage 2) 2:41:03 flo jack (dance dance revolution 2ndremix append club version vol 1)
Ah to be a kid again... when the only thoughts on my mind were what game i was going to rent next, what cartoon i was going to watch next, or how i was going to spend my day outside playing. Thanks for this!
Every once in awhile the algorithm gets things just right and introduces me to a BANGER of a playlist. This right here, is it. Absolutely loved listening to this throughout my week and appreciate the work you do putting this together. Working through your N64 one now
I love how all the tunes flow into each other, it's just one bombastic song after another. Across different games too? You are on talented individual!!
I always wondered, which turns my life has taken, to get me into drum and bass as an adult. Seeing (not only) this made me realize, that I listened to this subconsciously as a child. No wonder I love DnB these days. Even though I never acitvely chose to listen to that kind of music when I was younger.
I feel exactly the same. Not only about DnB, but electronic music in general... Trance, techno, house... These videogames were such a huge influence. For me, those were mainly Ape Escape; Sheep, Dog n' Wolf; Need for Speed High Stakes; Dance Dance Revolution; Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Spyro 2 - Ripto's Rage!
I was so surprised to hear Sentidub in here. It's such an obscure game (one of my all time favourites), and the track isn't even from the game lol, it's from an obscure soundtrack CD of remixes that I believe only came with the PC version (and only in Germany?). I've listened to it ten million times, it's very cool to hear it here.
I got covid earlier this week and I turn this playlist on, what a weird fever dream I was having then. Also stamping my favorite track(s): - 0:40:09 08 (sydney 2000) - 0:46:51 52 (raystorm) - 0:52:12 boss - musashi (soul of the samurai) - 1:10:23 20 (monaco grand prix)
THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING SPEED PUNKS! when I was a kid and could only afford a couple of games, that was my most-played for ages. there was a while where my memory card slot on my PlayStation was being finicky, so I couldn't save/load files. I was also only allowed an hour of gaming time per day, so every morning I'd start Speed Punks from scratch, beat every race and unlock Beemer/gold wheel mode, then bask in the glory of the first lap or two of a race before being told to shut things off. Long tangent but as soon as I heard this song in the mix I got so excited! Loving your mixes 🤩
This is the kinda music Toonami would blast in the background of their bumps during the early 2000s anime slots. I will never forget it. From when I was 9 to about 14 years old... BEST TIME to be alive.
Don't forget the aesthetic. Lovely Y2K cybernetic atmosphere... with Swayzak adding a bit of that sharp-edged '00s cartoon villain (cybervillain) flair too.
So dope- and i always wondered why i had an affinity for a genre i didnt know the name of! It was subconsciously programmed into my soul by the cool ass games we used to play lol Thanks for putting it all together RK!
Man the PS1 or PSX was such a huge revolution, many people don't realize how groundbreaking this console was with some awesome games and others being little experiments with 3D, thank god for Ken Kutaragi and your channel for this awesome mix :D
I usually ignore music mixes on TH-cam, but I am thoroughly digging this. Partly based on my fond memories of the incredible Jungle music that was used through the PS1 era, not to mention the fantastic job you did with the continuous mixing. 🔥🔥🔥
You don't know how many times this playlist has saved me from college works already. Excelent selection with excelent timing. Congrats for making it, bro!
this is a killer mix of tracks, but what's awesome about this is how seamless so many of the transitions are. it's such a cohesive set. great job, dude!

CANNOT WAIT!!! I first found your mixes in a local Dominos. One of the employees was bumping your N64 Jungle Mix!
🍕🍕🍕
that's actually insane
Epic! 💖
this is the best origin story ever
It's funny to me, because I was also bumping the N64 remixes at the Dominos where I work... lol
Jungle is the ultimate soundtrack for when you're trying to finish a project while hopelessly sleep-deprived. Fast-paced and varied enough to keep you aware, but not so chaotic or loud that it monopolizes your few active brain cells.
That is so true and one of the best comments I read in a while. Perfectly describes the feel of this genre.
For real, this is my currently favorite and optimal music for work, except Motorhead or total silence)
yeah I'm trying this
10000% man. I listen to dub techno when im overstimulated, and jungle when im understimulated.. which is a lot of life for me i guess :D
unless you are listening to something like original nuttah
Ahh i still remember that era as a teen. Electronic music that had cosmic, spiritual, new agey, ethnic, and jazzy sounds, giving that utopian and exotic feeling. Unfortunately it lost it afterwards, but thankfully we still get these mixes.
I love that this music has a futuristic yet nostalgic vibe to it

@@francoscaravaglione6075 But not the same edge as DNB,
Yeeee, Ive always loved this style and been wanting more but only knew of Final Fantasy X 2 and Sonic Games from the ps2 era
in Amtrak by Trace, the vocal sample perfectly summarizes jungle/hardcore breakbeat in all its manifestations - "Here's a group trying to accomplish one thing, that is, to get to the future!", which basically corresponds to Mark Fisher's Hauntology in music.
its the future we remember from the past.
They don’t make music like this for games anymore
Yes they do, it's just not common

Classic game, it took me a long time to realize video games exposed me to some of the first dnb/jungle i heard over 25 years ago
Ape Escape OST was by Soichi Terada, incredible composer and absolute legend of a bloke. You can check his work too, maybe starting from his Sumo Jungle EP. Oh, and more important, i'd recommend you see him live if you get the chance

Love that Dark Ruins got somewhat of a remix in Ape Escape 3 as Mount Amazing Part 2. Playing Ape Escape 3 then 1 and realizing the similarities was really cool. Bomb soundtrack in all three games.

Please look up Soichi Terada’s solo music. It’s amazing. He made that OST
for anyone unaware, all the characters featured onscreen are from "slap happy rhythm busters" which is one of the most vibrant looking titles on the PSX
(quick edit to elaborate: i feel like including a few fun facts about the game because it never really caught on with a lot of people, which is sad because the game's pretty cool.)

Oh my goodness, this mix is so MASTERFULLY done! I rarely ever comment on videos but this mix not only induces extreme nostalgia, but it makes me feel like a little kid discovering something life-changing for the first time. Thank you so much for this, best wishes to you my friend. +1 sub.
thank you! ❤️
this is just wonderful. personal favourite is 17:02. i’m so glad this exists. makes me nostalgic for a past i never experienced
This is one of the top 1% jungle/dnb mixes on yt, love all the piano 🎹
So futuristic, yet very early 2000's. I love it.
This is the kind of DnB I like to hear. Very Ape Escape in tone but also original in it's own way. I like it, keep up the hard work. ♠️🔥
every time i listen to this i get more obsessed with the tracks and visuals, truly an incredible mix
Yea, I keep listening to this and I love it more and more each time.
This has been jungle month for me. Listen to good music all the time! It's good for you!
Keep it on all the time!
Still the greatest playlist of all time. Thanks for doing this.
This is one of those things you never knew you needed in life until you hear it.
I'm here for this exactly. I was expecting low quality remixes of tunes that were done to death by a million other people, but got an eclectic mix of wonderful tracks of tunes from games even I, a diehard VGM enthusiast has never heard of before.
Solid aural gold.
just paying homage to an incredible era of music in gaming
Hey, love your mixes! (N64 and Playstation) Can't get over those smooth transitions!
❤️
Incredible. Japan in the 90s were such a vibe.
Jungle is English my guy...
@@ShredAndPurr you forgot the part where Playstation is a Japanese brand
@@vo7tage All of this originated im talking music wise
from the Black community. Rock n Roll Hip hop jazz blues gospel house techno Dj'ing breakbeats
country rnb And most important SOUL are came from and originated from the Black American Man tho.
but credit to the Japanese and to the westerners for creating these amazing video games and technologies.

I just keep coming back to this video when I'm in the midst of work, I've never been so in the zone before
Got to add to the chorus of people in the comments: as a "retired" DJ who fixates on this shit this mix is so flawlessly blended , structured and executed. Peaks, valleys, ITS SO GOOD. The nostalgic selections from golden era games just makes this one of the best mixdowns on this entire site.
this mix is helping me power through my math assignments like a god, thanks so much for the dope mix man
❤️
It's amazing how much DnB/Jungle was on PSX. I knew it too back then, but there's so much more. There were some songs from a weird game called Gekitotsu Larc En Ciel (from the J-Rock Band Larc En Eiel) I was trying to rip, now it's so easy to rip the songs. But I've also been listening to Jungle since the 90's, though I was in NYC and it was super hard to get tracks here back then. Apparently it was even popular in Japan at the time, too, and it makes for very good video game music. But I never stopped listening, and still do.

I agree
Ah to be a kid again... when the only thoughts on my mind were what game i was going to rent next, what cartoon i was going to watch next, or how i was going to spend my day outside playing. Thanks for this!
Refreshing 😩 haven’t listened to the radio in years. Wish people with this type of talent was in the stations.
Every once in awhile the algorithm gets things just right and introduces me to a BANGER of a playlist. This right here, is it. Absolutely loved listening to this throughout my week and appreciate the work you do putting this together. Working through your N64 one now
the mix on this is so clean, the transitions subtly go hard
Instantly liked. This hits the spot! 😌👌
Both PS1 and Dreamcast have this beautiful music.
Just when I thought the algorithm couldn’t possibly be more specific in preying on my interests; this video. ❤️
♥️
And so I discover a new music genre, thank you!
Learning Japanase and this just helps me focus so much. Thank you for the mix, keep it up!
I love how all the tunes flow into each other, it's just one bombastic song after another. Across different games too? You are on talented individual!!
I always wondered, which turns my life has taken, to get me into drum and bass as an adult.
Seeing (not only) this made me realize, that I listened to this subconsciously as a child. No wonder I love DnB these days. Even though I never acitvely chose to listen to that kind of music when I was younger.
I think I feel the same way.
I feel exactly the same. Not only about DnB, but electronic music in general... Trance, techno, house... These videogames were such a huge influence.
For me, those were mainly Ape Escape; Sheep, Dog n' Wolf; Need for Speed High Stakes; Dance Dance Revolution; Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Spyro 2 - Ripto's Rage!
A lot of us have this journey
@open
I keep coming back to this series of mixes. Every episode is a classic. Thank you for your hard work.
I was so surprised to hear Sentidub in here. It's such an obscure game (one of my all time favourites), and the track isn't even from the game lol, it's from an obscure soundtrack CD of remixes that I believe only came with the PC version (and only in Germany?). I've listened to it ten million times, it's very cool to hear it here.
I got covid earlier this week and I turn this playlist on, what a weird fever dream I was having then.
Also stamping my favorite track(s):
- 0:40:09 08 (sydney 2000)
- 0:46:51 52 (raystorm)
- 0:52:12 boss - musashi (soul of the samurai)
- 1:10:23 20 (monaco grand prix)
my theory is that they did all those nostalgic yet random videogames as an excuse to drop the hardest soundtracks ever written
This is going in my best of mixes. My bike ride commutes to work will be shredding. Thank you.
♥️
THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING SPEED PUNKS! when I was a kid and could only afford a couple of games, that was my most-played for ages. there was a while where my memory card slot on my PlayStation was being finicky, so I couldn't save/load files. I was also only allowed an hour of gaming time per day, so every morning I'd start Speed Punks from scratch, beat every race and unlock Beemer/gold wheel mode, then bask in the glory of the first lap or two of a race before being told to shut things off. Long tangent but as soon as I heard this song in the mix I got so excited! Loving your mixes 🤩
this is mystically beautiful.
This is the kinda music Toonami would blast in the background of their bumps during the early 2000s anime slots.
I will never forget it. From when I was 9 to about 14 years old... BEST TIME to be alive.
Introduced to electronica in the fringe of other genres by Toonami and AMPtv on Mtv myself. (^How old are you really statement. Haha)
Don't forget the aesthetic. Lovely Y2K cybernetic atmosphere... with Swayzak adding a bit of that sharp-edged '00s cartoon villain (cybervillain) flair too.
I was just about to comment this lol Toonami aesthetic including their bumps really helped shape a lot of my early tastes in music and art :D
Cowboy Bebop was the first time I heard a dnb track. Shit still slaps to this day.
Just wow. Words cannot describe what feeling this music gives me. Brilliant choice of tracks
❤️
Probably one of the best mixes I've ever heard on TH-cam, and from such a specific, unique genre. I live for this
Ape escape mix thrown in there hits the nostalgia so hard. Omg..
So dope- and i always wondered why i had an affinity for a genre i didnt know the name of! It was subconsciously programmed into my soul by the cool ass games we used to play lol Thanks for putting it all together RK!
Man the PS1 or PSX was such a huge revolution, many people don't realize how groundbreaking this console was with some awesome games and others being little experiments with 3D, thank god for Ken Kutaragi and your channel for this awesome mix :D
♥️
This will be a banger I can feel it in my bones!
absolutely
Thank you for your hard work on this mix. I love hove you didn't just throw the tracks in there, but also cared to make many transitions seamless

I usually ignore music mixes on TH-cam, but I am thoroughly digging this. Partly based on my fond memories of the incredible Jungle music that was used through the PS1 era, not to mention the fantastic job you did with the continuous mixing. 🔥🔥🔥
♥️
Loving this on a Saturday morning!
right?! perfect cleaning mix.
@@HannahEsty Exactly!!
@gdrive
some guy woke up and decided to make jungle music a thing, what a legend
This is the perfect music for a chill afternoon at the pool. Played this for the 2:30hrs nonstop. Thank you for such amazing mix!
This playlist is such a jam while also helping me destroy these pages of bio notes!!
Love the seamless transitions. Sometimes impossible to differentiate when the songs change.
Can’t believe how good this mix is
❤️
You don't know how many times this playlist has saved me from college works already. Excelent selection with excelent timing. Congrats for making it, bro!
thanks!
God like mix, fantastic transitions, great picks. Gotta love this era of video game music.
This music is making me visit another plain of existence and I am all for it
ahh finally, my favorite genre: "jungle video game soundtracks from the mid 2000s"
this is a killer mix of tracks, but what's awesome about this is how seamless so many of the transitions are. it's such a cohesive set. great job, dude!
thank you! ♥️
You got sick mixes, my dude. I listen to them at work everyday.

@googledrive
I was a kid when PS1 came onto the scene, and nowadays as an adult, I appreciate jungle music more than any other
man, i like this way too much
