I'm so old skool I was actually there when the breakbeat was first discovered on an archaeological dig in North West England in the mid 1980s. It was seriously underground believe me.. fossilised even.
I’m 44 been loving jungle ever since 17. This is the first time I’m hearing this melodic masterpiece. I was in bed. As soon as as I heard 0:42, I got out of bed and started dancing. I love TH-cam.
unreleased prototype, there was another one called one nation - they were supposed to be prototype 3 and 6. an old mate of mine was given the test presses by grooverider in australia many years ago. they are now both in another old mate's excellent private collection in south london.
It's possible it wasn't released because of the strings sampled from Future Sound Of London's "Cascade". Photek and Source Direct were notorious for sampling big chunks of FSOL without permission on their early releases and I seem to recall FSOL threatening to sue in a magazine interview if it happened again.
Great tune. I've been banging this for a few years now and I really wish I could buy/find this track or mp3 uncut. I am working on a mix where this would fit in perfectly.
@77OLDskool Older than 2 decades. I agree with you. I don't listen or agree with the music that is played nowadays. I was someone who had the honor of living in the Bronx/Manhattan ghetto's of New York, growing up with some of the best music (in my opinion). I live on old skool jungle/oldskool rap/experimental electronic music types of any sort.
If you want the whole record, just google: 120560653 bukem Just a heads up for those who haven't heard the record: this isn't Photek only, much of the previous track, Unplugged by Appaloosa, is there too. watch?v=xlTMHH7hQmw
@rarebeats77 I'll message you with the ones I can remember as there's not enough space to list them here. If anyone else is interested, send me a message.....
alexb618 haha that wouldn't be Noddy you're speaking of would it? Cos I know that Rider gave him a copy and that he sold it!! :) Has to be him haha how random!
just to feed into the convo: im soon to be 21. I wouldn't consider myself OG or anything. however been into DNB since 2003. Even then the stuff released back then is mile sdifferent than now. Let alone the birth of it in the ate 1980s if i have my facts right. Anywho.
DnB birth was late 91 mate early 92,pretty much anything before that was considered Hardcore or early Jungle,anything around late 80's was still considered acid house related.
@@johnhopkinson4054 Yep bang on John... We raved to House, Techno & Breakbeat up until 1991, Hardcore in 1992, Darkcore in 1993 and then eventually the name Drum & Bass became more widely used as the music progressed into 1994... Listening back now to tunes from 1991 such as The Noise Factory on Ibiza recs we hear some tracks were part of that early drum & bass/jungle sound, but we never really knew it as that, it was just Hardcore.
Brilliant tune. Never known two tunes that mix together so perfectly.
Wish Feeling Up, Say It and Flavour of a Sound would be released...

LOL
Lol
Brilliant tune! And Bukem's mixing on that compilation is just mindblowing... so good.
Fantazia did take me into the jungle back then.

Andre Baker a thing of beauty. “The music is in the mind of those that choose to move.” - MC Conrad

Recoil

unreleased prototype, there was another one called one nation - they were supposed to be prototype 3 and 6. an old mate of mine was given the test presses by grooverider in australia many years ago. they are now both in another old mate's excellent private collection in south london.

@Shoebox Audio Strings sampled from Cascade Part 5. th-cam.com/video/Dbbp3gwaJp8/w-d-xo.html
Ah right/Blimey! Makes sense tbf (Ta')
Also = A fair-few Producers must've done the same with other Music Artists surely. (Would ❤ to locate that Mag'/Interview etc)
Great tune. I've been banging this for a few years now and I really wish I could buy/find this track or mp3 uncut. I am working on a mix where this would fit in perfectly.
one of the top unrealeased tunes no doubt,
just a correction, this compilation Fantazia was released in 94 not 99.
Al Gee 100% 1994
Will this ever get a full release that's the question
This sounds... WELLL NIIICE!!!! Listen to those chords at the beginning!
The beginning chords are from Appaloosa - Unplugged (Chaos & Julia Set Mix) just to let ya know. other than that, Feeling Up is a real top notch tune!
Great.
very atmospheric and sweet
TUNE. As said from Bukems Fantazia mix. Was due out on Prototype but never made it :(

josh oz
you can tell him it is still in a good home many many miles away, part of the best collection of 90s jungle i have ever seen!
I shall. He's on FB mate. I mentioned this strange connection on there and Funky J sent you a holler!
seems this tune is pretty rare, i'm obsessed with it, do you know if a digital file exists anywhere?
