If you’re a music producer and this reaches you, please comment so it doesn’t get lost on the non music type of ‘jungle’ videos 😂 It’s been lovely connecting with you all and I appreciate this community that’s forming here so much
Love love love finding these videos right when I decided to dive into jungle! Been a househead forever but always a fan of breakbeats, being a drummer I can’t resist the vibes 😅
Ive been producing for almost 20 years, hip hop, metal, rock, edm, but I never tackled Jungle cause it's just the greatest and I didn't wanna fuck it up! but I think I'm finally ready! I grew up in Jamaica in the 90s so this sound really resonates with me! great tutorial, and I appreciate that you provided both samples and free vsts, really well made video, keep it up!
I’m a 40 yr old mom. As a teen in the late 90s rave scene I wanted to learn this but didn’t even have internet then. Knew some djs at 16 but they were all older guys. So glad I found this and maybe I’ll pick up a new hobby. Nice that you included the Human Traffic scene 😄
That's so cool! The 90s rave scene must've been amazing, experiencing that time I imagine you saw lots of incredible things and yes human traffic is such a good movie. Thank you for sharing your story
I often think how lucky we were to live through those times. 90's-00's rave scene was some of the most fun pure times ever. Surely unable to be recreated.
Ay thank you fam, that really means a lot :) I appreciate having you as a part of this little community, Glad to hear you’ve found the vids useful. Much more coming soon
Now I understand why one day in The Netherlands as a teenager I was playing around with my stereo, picked up a hard to detect AM frequency station from England with what I now know as Jungle, I had never heard of Jungle before and it blew my mind, it was mainly gabber and hardcore trance that was popular in NL. Now I understand what I picked up, it wasn't mainstream radio at all but likely some place perhaps even a ship broadcasting. Amazing. Thanks for sharing, I never would have known.
That’s a great story…it was probably being transmitted from an inner city estate…top of a tower block….they would never had guessed it could be heard in Holland
The whole aesthetic of this vid with the retro windows 95 look is an incredible vibe. That paper clip and butterflies gave me serious nostalgia. Absolute quality 👏
Thanks Jim! I appreciate the kind comments fam, really means a lot as a smaller independent creator :) I’ve got a lot of things coming up that I can’t wait to share with you, hope you enjoy the rest of the videos on my channel
Fantastic stuff man. I know almost nothing about production, but fondly remember the 90’s sound (LTJ Bukem my fave), and would love to tinker with this. Inspiring video, very well explained, and great sounding result.
True story: I`ve been in Tokyo for 24 years now and 4 years in I met this bloke from Leeds who was a diehard DnB fan. Showed me some tight shit to open my eyes when I was only spinning pure minimal techno. His name was Chris. He always had the fun. Hence, his nickname was Chris "the Pharmacist". Now that I am much older, and hopefully more mature, seeing Chris "the Scientist" break down more efficiently than the other Chris could have hoped, I am now thinking it was probably the drugs that messed with the comprehension/explanation aspect of it all. It is awesome to see a new generation find musical gold!!
I love seeing young people with genuine passion for stuff made before they were born. Hopefully we'll see a full-on '90s style jungle revival very soon. Great video. 👍
DJ Harmony (of Moving Shadow) fame launched a label called Deep Jungle in 2017 (I think) and Tim Reaper's Future Retro label is pushing a new era of jungle to new audiences. Deep Jungle was initially releasing previously unreleased 90s stuff off DATs people had laying around but then they started releasing newly produced jungle and Harmony's even been producing again. I've been a big jungle fan since I was about 20, although I was born 1990 so too young for jungle when it a new phenomenon.
I'm 48 and the nineties were a musical rollercoaster for me. Jungle, Hip-Hop, Techno, Gabber, Grunge, I loved it all. Thanks for this memorylane and high quality video! A sub well earned!
I believe it has been scientifically proven that, for most people, the best music is the music released in their teens and early twenties, so I'm not surprised that the OP loves 90s tunes. I'm older than the OP. Radio 2 keeps on playing 90s songs, and I keep on thinking "Tune! Was that really 30 years ago?"
I really respect the clear reverance and knowledge you have about not just the genre, but the culture that spawned Jungle. Seen a lot of Americans simply just call it "PS1 music" which is where the sound ended up, but totally whitewashes its origins. The fact you were able to put together such a concise tutorial with authentically nostalgic visuals on top is so cool. Mad respect.
Thanks very much! This comment meant a lot to read, jungle certainly carries a lot of love and nostalgia in my heart. Fond memories racing through London with my Dad in a car, blasting this
I have a hard time with stuff like this. I love that this video fills in some of the historical context. That just makes the whole culture of music richer, IMO, to understand more of its origins. OTOH, I really don't like when people imply (or outright claim) that the evolution, or even just the impact, of a genre of music is somehow a disservice. Music has always spread from place to place. It's how styles continue to innovate. In the 90s, I *loved* jungle and DnB. The heavy influence of many different flavors of electronica is also one of the things that makes the PlayStation one of my all-time favorite game consoles. (That, and the absolute treasure trove of superb games spanning the genres from racing to RPG.) It was a natural fit -- the PSX audio chip was basically a sampler, and had the same limitations that a sampler or early arranger/workstation keyboard from that era would've had. Namely, limited memory to store samples, and a handful of effects that could be pulled off in real-time. It was the same motivation that littered the Amiga and PC MOD scene with techno. You just couldn't write a song with convincing samples of organic instruments because the waveforms were too complex, and too long, and therefore took too much space. Also, it was arguably the first time a games console targeted a demographic that would've been at the right age to appreciate that kind of music. The result was that this "underground" music style was made available to a whole generation of young adults, who spent time listening to it out of obligation (it's just what was playing behind the game), and in turn, developed a taste for it. Maybe some people think that makes it "less pure" that more people like it. Those people are called snobs. Maybe some other people feel the composers of those soundtracks had no right, as they were just kids from the UK and Japan (the primary hotbeds for game development at the time), and so it's yet another case of "appropriation." Ugh.. As if anyone is born superior. We're all dropped here on the planet, a citizen of any given nation by happenstance. We didn't choose it, we didn't earn it. We are what we are out of pure dumb luck. And to think that we would rob anyone of the chance to contribute their ideas to a genre they're passionate about, over something as trivial as their postal code... I am thankful for the changing of hands that music has been through. I feel we've benefited from it greatly. Make no mistake -- there have surely been some atrocious acts of theft that have left a scar on history. Heck, the entire music industry is a mob. But a guy sitting in front of a computer contributing a track to the Wipeout XL soundtrack isn't that, and it's utterly unfair to hold them accountable for the sins of others. It's not their fault that some 13-year-old didn't know the whole history of sound systems when they were bobbing their head to The Prodigy. IMO, if that disconnect makes you uncomfortable, educate. Yourself or someone else -- doesn't matter. Don't just complain that some kid liked music that didn't belong to them. Fill in the gap. The DJs spinning vinyl in Jamaica didn't come up with that stuff in a vacuum either. Nobody does. It's been a cooperative effort since the beginning of time. Few things unite people like music, and it's such a waste to try and contain it when we could be using it as a means to foster respect for each other. Maybe that's not what the OP was saying at all, and I'm preaching a sermon to nobody here. I actually hope that's the case. But regardless, having someone refer to jungle as "PS1 music" sounds like an opportunity to expand someone's horizons.
immediately before "jungle" there was a short lived genre called "ragga" (it lived around 2 years) . This was very similar in retrospect, but was solidly focused on the dub reggae influences and it was only when jungle exploded that people were allowed to step outside the rigid; chopped beats ,dub bass lines, some relentless MC chatting format, adding whatever other elements they wanted (e.g. the synth pads) and finally telling the MCs to shut up and let the music happen sometimes (progressively more & more). Jungle swamped its parent entirely- and Ragga was absorbed wholesale, rather than replaced.
Na.... Before Jungle it was called hardcore.. then ppl called it jungle techno then they dropped the 4x4 kick drum out and jungle was born... Ragga jungle got big in 1994/1995 It ruined the parties as crack heads started going to raves and the vibes changed.. The club's then refused to host any jungle party's and drum n bass was born.. Drum n bass is way better for MCs as well..
@@-processdrone- it's clear to me that you never lived through them time's 😳 or know anything about music you talk of..... Breakbeat is in drum and bass jungle and hardcore...?? Jungle dnb is the evolution of hardcore... Here's Google's explanation... Jungle is a type of electronic music that evolved from breakbeat hardcore, while breakbeat is a broad genre that includes jungle:
@@-processdrone- hip hop was using breakbeats in the late 70s early 80s....? There's a tune called depth charge by depth charge... It's hip hop one side and on the other side is a speeded up breakbeat version which is the template for the early hardcore.. It was made in 1989 Also shut up and dance with their track.. 5678 Jungle evolved from breakbeat hardcore... Just like house music and techno evolved from Disco...
@@-processdrone- I'm not sure where you got all your information but it's wrong... ragga jungle (1994/95) was obviously after jungle was well established in 1993... So it was just after not before..🙈
Man, I just had this realization that there are entire generations out there who can explore windows 9x as something "new" with the understanding of today's UI and expectations. For a lot of us, going back to win9x would have a nostalgic feeling that I don't think we could separate from.
Yeah lots of fond memories of playing retro games on my Dad's old work computer, the nostalgia from that is what inspired a lot of what you see on my channel
Thanks! That’s my aim with these videos, I want them to be fun, entertaining and useful. So to hear you say that puts a smile on my face :) Thank you my friend much love
This is so cool. I'm just young enough (born in 1986) to miss the 90s rave and jungle scenes but old enough to remember how this sound influenced video game music and other stuff that was more accessible to me as a kid in the 90s.
One minute into the video, I thought to myself, "I have learned nothing, but if the whole video is just another 5 minutes of this track I will not be disappointed."
I've been producing music for almost 15 years at this point, and I wish there would have been something as clear yet thorough as this when I started! You have a real talent for teaching, my friend 😸
Yes! Glad you appreciated that, I felt it was important to include. Growing up I used to love hearing them in the car with my Dad, whenever we were driving through London :) Lots of nostalgic memories
@@christhescientist seriously, where can I listen to it? I need this track in my life! Can't keep coming back to the 1 minute snippet here all the time :-S
Thanks Finley! I’m glad this vid reached you fam :) I’ll have more coming soon, so feel free to subscribe with notifications on, if you’d like to see more
I was surprised how effective and straight to the point this video is. Will be sharing it with aspiring jungle producers as a quick and simple intro to the aesthetic. Well done.
Thanks! Yes that’s my goal with this video series on my channel, I want them to give you the information in an entertaining way, that doesn’t waste your time
Great video. As someone who's been making Jungle/Hardcore for over 10 years it's lovely how simple and effective the genre can be to evoke such a vibe. Kudos!
Thanks fam, I appreciate the support :) yes you must’ve seen a lot change in the jungle genre over that time period? I’m glad it’s found it’s way back to the spotlight
Song at the beginning is a perfect recreation of 1994. Very, very specific. That's like not just learning to speak English, but learning to speak Sheffield English or Suffolk English.
Wow thank you very much, I'm glad you appreciate the subtle nuances I included. It was important to leave references and important ear candy, so that people like yourself would know I had put a lot of research and effort into the music. Thanks very much for this comment, one of my favourites I've received so far
Never heard of Jungle music in my life, never saw your face before, never listened to your voice. I'm hella intrigued! I'm no producer.. unfortunately.. but this tutorial gave such an inspiration boost! Will definitely keep following, damn that editing is hella cool. Such a sucker for retro games, you really are incredible!
Im a Turkish person with no music making experience and randomly introduced to this genre by you. Your video editing skills are so cool. You are creative, keep creating friend.
Jungle came from a long line of influences, not just Caribbean culture. People seem to be editing out the warehouse parties and rave side of it to fit in with The trendy narratives. The production side of this video is brilliant. Respect
Cool. Thanks! In the 90s, I went to the first Jungle club in Berlin, the Toaster. The MC still works today and shares the stage with people like Goldie when they come to Berlin. Thank you, Britain, for all this music, Jungle, D&B, Triphop, IDM.
This is absolute genius. And now I know ‘Dread Bass’ is that sound I’ve always heard, loved and didn’t know the name of until now. Thank you. I’m about to go buy a Denon Dj Prime+ and maybe now I’ll know how to make Stems with it. I’m 58 btw and used to own illegal underground after hours clubs in the 80’s and 90’s and always admired the talents of the DJ’s I hired. It was different, way different back then. Technology has changed music forever and for the better. Can’t stop the music, it’s how the universe allows us to speak to it.
@@grega4220 Thanks Greg! Glad this vid could spark some nostalgia, that’s so cool you got to experience those times :) My main experience of it is being whizzed around through London in a Vauxhall Corsa with my Dad, blasting Jungle :) Which I loved
I’m 47 years old. Been listening to inf to drum n bass since I was 17 years old. I have a vast catalog, you have broken things down in such a quick, efficient and compact yet very knowledge dense material that I WISH I had 30 years ago!! Well done. Sub and like from me! I’m buying a Poly end tracker and I’m jumping full send into making break beats again
@@louisgoldberg1755 Hi Louis! Thanks for your lovely comment my friend :) Means a lot coming from someone like you who knows the genre so well. I appreciate your sub and look forward to sharing more videos with you. Good luck with the Poly end tracker!
Man, nevermind the actual subject which is some of the soundtrack to our childhood, I have to say the editing of this video is top notch! All the Windows 95 tropes, the games, the icons from back then used in the annotations - it's so well done, it makes me remember old times and I love it.
Ah nostalgia! This brings me back to being in my 20s in the Bay Area! I was too nerdy (and overworked from jobs and college) to go to raves….but I loved the jungle/D&D club scene. It was all kinds of people dancing in their own way and just living the vibe. In contrast to the dominant grunge and gangsta rap of the era. Pure fun. Aggressive! Ethereal! Trippy! Sexy! Whatever you wanted. Good times!
I love the style you've created this tutorial in. The aesthetic flair and clear explanations make this way more engaging to watch that any old generic tutorial
couldn't hit subscribe fast enough. that a young person takes such interest in and shapes their life around the culture of my teenage years is pure flattery, which will get you everywhere. combined with the bio on your homepage, and I know you're doing the Lord's work;-) keep it up, I will stay tuned
Seeing that the new generation enjoys this music makes me very happy. I spent a lot of long nights dancing to this stuff when I was a teen. Good times.
@@christhescientist Is any chance to get this intro track in some better quality than ripped mp3 128kbps from this vid? Man this is absolutely hell dope classic feel! Pls share it with us!
this man made the most instructive video whilst also having aesthetics on top of it. absolute gem of a video, edit, arrangement, everything!! amazing. and all in 5 minutes!
Thanks very much! I'm so glad this vid was able to reach you :) I'm currently working on my next one as we speak, so I loo forward to sharing that with you too. Thank you for this lovely comment my friend
Thanks Luke! So glad you enjoyed the vid fam :) Thank you for subscribing too, we’ve got a lovely little community here and I’m glad to have you as a part of that
Proper trip down memory lane. Loved the Windows look with the attention to the little pop up clips and FX (and clippy lol). Loved it, especially the intro with a bit of history. If I had time and budget I’d love to make an expansive documentary on the history of jungle and D&B in the vein of Netflix’s Evolution of Hip Hop.
So glad you’ve made this! 😀🙏 I was a huge jungle (then d’n’b) fan back when it came out in the 90s, and still am today. Having a sound engineering and musical background to some degree, I especially appreciate this. Amazingly (and I seem to not be the only one), you (and others) managed to make me discover stuff that I never knew about it, like which samples were used, some history of where it came from etc. So thank you!
video got straight to the point, gave a great roadmap of how to make the music, even provided historical context for the genre, all with fun visuals, in under 10 minutes. Truly a 10/10 piece of content :D
this is such a brilliant tutorial mate. i've watched it many times over from late 2023 until now, and only today have i finally decided it was time to make my own song. would not have done it without your help, i was so lost. thanks a bunch.
That’s very humbling to hear fam, thank you! The whole point of this channel is to inspire people to want to create, so I’m very pleased to read your message :) Good luck with the song
This is one of the best TH-cam videos I've seen in awhile. Informative, concise, aesthetic design, and excellent editing. Engaging throughout. Difficult to find content that's *this* high quality these days. Hope you keep putting stuff out
Wow, thanks very much! I really appreciate you saying this, I take a lot of care when making these videos so I’m glad you appreciate them :) Hope to see you in the next one my friend
Wow, thanks a lot! Definitely high praise to read that. I’m so glad you find it helpful and I really appreciate you being a part of this little community
i came from tons of low poly dnb jungle ambient mixes. started at this early autumn and feel the drums. im 40 yo and want say thx for re-enter my psp sega games era
A someone who started making music almost 15 years ago, i wish i had all those tutorials at my disposal (i wasnt even talking english back in the days so it was really difficult to find great ressources to learn), you are lucky young people, go and produce some bangers!
A couple of years ago I started experimenting with some of the electronic sounds I remember from the 90s, trying to creatively incorporate them in my own stuff. This gave me some ideas, told a cool story, and has vibes for days. The Win95 desktop is a great touch.
Excellent video! I love how you've presented this and it's nice and short and sweet too. I absolutely love Jungle, DnB and Liquid Funk. That tune you've composed for the video is absolute 🔥🔥🔥
Gostei da thumb, apesar do Brasil não ter nenhum representante forte de DnB, Jungle ou Ambient, ainda pode ser que alguém apareça pra ser um representante nacional do gênero. Amo seu canal cara, tô aqui há muito tempo, amo sua estética e os tutoriais que você faz, eu gosto deles porque são feitos pra gêneros bem específicos. É nois! 🇧🇷 🇬🇧
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it my friend :) I appreciate you taking the time to check out the rest of my channel too, I’ll have more videos coming soon
i discovered my passion was making music in early highschool (around 2018, all before that i had thought i wanted to be a microbiologist lol) but i never learned any sort of music as a child so its been very hard learning especially when i was starting. Because of this im extremeley grateful for videos like this that provide tangible resources for making music that i love! and without them i would be so far behind where i am now, so thank you!
Very nicely edited video, sir! You're so young but so eloquently spoken, calm, and "wise." It's like you've been a producer for 20+ years and you're swooping down to give us newbs lessons.
What a lovely comment to read, I appreciate it fam :) stuff like this really motivates me, glad to have you as a part of the little community we’re building here
Another banger Chris! Love the history of jungle and providing that context, really helps set the scene & it's great to see the late 90s/early 2000s having a resurgence now 🙌
I keep rewatching the first one minute of this video, it’s incredibly well done. If you ever make a full music video I will listen to it on repeat. Amazing!
@@christhescientist"talented content creator" yeah that seems about right If you're doing this alone man well done Editing is "dense" without being over the top like fighting for the viewer's attention ahah and it was pretty interesting I would've loved to see a more in depth and longer video in that style but I get that even for a kinda short one like that the work you must have put into it is huge already I encourage you to keep at it it's always refreshing to see actual quality on youtube ! Props
@@slov1499 apologies for the late reply, yes I am the sole creator and editor on this channel. So everything you see in these videos is me :) Thanks for your kind comment and feedback

This was absolutely fucking incredible. I JUST bought a couple of midi controllers to try out, hoping to inspire me to get back into beat making. It's been a while since I've opened up my DAW and my tastes have changed, so I'd LOVE to make some of this type of music. I'll be referencing this video multiple times over the coming days/weeks I'm sure. Thanks!
Awesome! This was a lovely comment to read and I’m so happy you’re getting value from these videos :) have fun experimenting and I’ll have a new video dropping soon, can’t wait to share it with you fam
Ok fr the fact that you provided the jungle sounds for free, the sega sounds for only a score, and the other thing, and this video presentation showing you doing it with your laptop keyboard. Bloody hell, subscribed. I used to make music but dont have space for my MIDI gear and eventually stopped. This really encourages me to get back into it. Cheers man
I'm a 14 year old music producer who's started to get really into the old school, rave scene, this video helped me start to learn the process of making this sort of music, thanks!
Great video Chris, with music history and production tips all in 5 minutes! Radio Caroline was the OG pirate radio station broadcasting from a boat and it's still going. Sadly, it never played jungle, it's mostly a rock station. I remember searching the FM dial for pirate stations in London in the 90s and recording shows to cassette. What a vibe, what a time! :)
Wow, that’s very cool information to learn thank you! That’s the great thing about making these videos, I get to connect with people like you who know even more niche knowledge about these genres. Thank you for sharing my friend :)
Oh! I was just expecting to hear a song, but this is a genuinely useful tutorial that actually teaches you how to make Jungle music. And normally tutorials tell you how to make one specific song, but this just teaches you the concepts. I'm happily surprised and very impressed!
Totally agree. 90s jungle tunes were sparse because of technical limitations, but the producers made the best of what they had. It made us realise that all you really need is a drum break, sub bass, and a pad or vocal sample and that's 90% of the tune done
Its because everything is made on modern equipment, its just doesn't sound raw anymore. I for one don't like the polished sound of today. Its just sounds 'tinny' to my ears and lacks thrust!
Thank you very much! I take great pride in my music production, so as much as I try and make these videos entertaining, the main focus is always the track shown. So thanks for showing that love

I believe it has been scientifically proven that, for most people, the best music is the music released in their teens and early twenties, so I'm not surprised that the OP loves 90s tunes.

I really respect the clear reverance and knowledge you have about not just the genre, but the culture that spawned Jungle. Seen a lot of Americans simply just call it "PS1 music" which is where the sound ended up, but totally whitewashes its origins.
The fact you were able to put together such a concise tutorial with authentically nostalgic visuals on top is so cool. Mad respect.
Thanks very much! This comment meant a lot to read, jungle certainly carries a lot of love and nostalgia in my heart. Fond memories racing through London with my Dad in a car, blasting this
I have a hard time with stuff like this. I love that this video fills in some of the historical context. That just makes the whole culture of music richer, IMO, to understand more of its origins. OTOH, I really don't like when people imply (or outright claim) that the evolution, or even just the impact, of a genre of music is somehow a disservice.
Music has always spread from place to place. It's how styles continue to innovate. In the 90s, I *loved* jungle and DnB. The heavy influence of many different flavors of electronica is also one of the things that makes the PlayStation one of my all-time favorite game consoles. (That, and the absolute treasure trove of superb games spanning the genres from racing to RPG.)
It was a natural fit -- the PSX audio chip was basically a sampler, and had the same limitations that a sampler or early arranger/workstation keyboard from that era would've had. Namely, limited memory to store samples, and a handful of effects that could be pulled off in real-time. It was the same motivation that littered the Amiga and PC MOD scene with techno. You just couldn't write a song with convincing samples of organic instruments because the waveforms were too complex, and too long, and therefore took too much space. Also, it was arguably the first time a games console targeted a demographic that would've been at the right age to appreciate that kind of music.
The result was that this "underground" music style was made available to a whole generation of young adults, who spent time listening to it out of obligation (it's just what was playing behind the game), and in turn, developed a taste for it.
Maybe some people think that makes it "less pure" that more people like it. Those people are called snobs. Maybe some other people feel the composers of those soundtracks had no right, as they were just kids from the UK and Japan (the primary hotbeds for game development at the time), and so it's yet another case of "appropriation." Ugh.. As if anyone is born superior. We're all dropped here on the planet, a citizen of any given nation by happenstance. We didn't choose it, we didn't earn it. We are what we are out of pure dumb luck. And to think that we would rob anyone of the chance to contribute their ideas to a genre they're passionate about, over something as trivial as their postal code...
I am thankful for the changing of hands that music has been through. I feel we've benefited from it greatly. Make no mistake -- there have surely been some atrocious acts of theft that have left a scar on history. Heck, the entire music industry is a mob. But a guy sitting in front of a computer contributing a track to the Wipeout XL soundtrack isn't that, and it's utterly unfair to hold them accountable for the sins of others. It's not their fault that some 13-year-old didn't know the whole history of sound systems when they were bobbing their head to The Prodigy. IMO, if that disconnect makes you uncomfortable, educate. Yourself or someone else -- doesn't matter. Don't just complain that some kid liked music that didn't belong to them. Fill in the gap. The DJs spinning vinyl in Jamaica didn't come up with that stuff in a vacuum either. Nobody does. It's been a cooperative effort since the beginning of time. Few things unite people like music, and it's such a waste to try and contain it when we could be using it as a means to foster respect for each other.
Maybe that's not what the OP was saying at all, and I'm preaching a sermon to nobody here. I actually hope that's the case. But regardless, having someone refer to jungle as "PS1 music" sounds like an opportunity to expand someone's horizons.
immediately before "jungle" there was a short lived genre called "ragga" (it lived around 2 years) . This was very similar in retrospect, but was solidly focused on the dub reggae influences and it was only when jungle exploded that people were allowed to step outside the rigid; chopped beats ,dub bass lines, some relentless MC chatting format, adding whatever other elements they wanted (e.g. the synth pads) and finally telling the MCs to shut up and let the music happen sometimes (progressively more & more). Jungle swamped its parent entirely- and Ragga was absorbed wholesale, rather than replaced.
Na....
Before Jungle it was called hardcore.. then ppl called it jungle techno then they dropped the 4x4 kick drum out and jungle was born...
Ragga jungle got big in 1994/1995
It ruined the parties as crack heads started going to raves and the vibes changed..
The club's then refused to host any jungle party's and drum n bass was born..
Drum n bass is way better for MCs as well..
@@oldskoolbeats1989 Na, Hardcore used breakbeats, not chopping beats up and reorganising 'em. Ragga was the first to do that in the late 80s .
@@-processdrone- it's clear to me that you never lived through them time's 😳 or know anything about music you talk of.....
Breakbeat is in drum and bass jungle and hardcore...??
Jungle dnb is the evolution of hardcore...
Here's Google's explanation...
Jungle is a type of electronic music that evolved from breakbeat hardcore, while breakbeat is a broad genre that includes jungle:
@@-processdrone- hip hop was using breakbeats in the late 70s early 80s....?
There's a tune called depth charge by depth charge... It's hip hop one side and on the other side is a speeded up breakbeat version which is the template for the early hardcore..
It was made in 1989
Also shut up and dance with their track.. 5678
Jungle evolved from breakbeat hardcore...
Just like house music and techno evolved from Disco...
@@-processdrone- I'm not sure where you got all your information but it's wrong...
ragga jungle (1994/95)
was obviously after jungle was well established in 1993...
So it was just after not before..🙈
Man, I just had this realization that there are entire generations out there who can explore windows 9x as something "new" with the understanding of today's UI and expectations.
For a lot of us, going back to win9x would have a nostalgic feeling that I don't think we could separate from.
Yeah lots of fond memories of playing retro games on my Dad's old work computer, the nostalgia from that is what inspired a lot of what you see on my channel
Wow, a music production Tutorial that isn't just a gateway video to a paid sample Pack but an ACTUAL TUTORIAL. AMAZING, THANK YOU!
You’re welcome, glad you found it helpful :) I’ll be uploading more tips and tricks in the future, so I hope you enjoy them too
Your videos are a real treat, tutorials that are not only educating but also just really fun and entertaining to watch!
Thanks! That’s my aim with these videos, I want them to be fun, entertaining and useful. So to hear you say that puts a smile on my face :) Thank you my friend much love
Can't get over how insanely high quality these videos are, keep it up mate
Thank you my friend! I appreciate the his comment a lot :) Much love fam
This is so cool. I'm just young enough (born in 1986) to miss the 90s rave and jungle scenes but old enough to remember how this sound influenced video game music and other stuff that was more accessible to me as a kid in the 90s.
Awesome! You’re right the influence on video game soundtracks was massive :)
One minute into the video, I thought to myself, "I have learned nothing, but if the whole video is just another 5 minutes of this track I will not be disappointed."
I've been producing music for almost 15 years at this point, and I wish there would have been something as clear yet thorough as this when I started! You have a real talent for teaching, my friend 😸
Thank you for this lovely comment
That bit about illegal radio stations is incredibly cool, I didn't know Jungle had *Deep Lore.*
Yes! Glad you appreciated that, I felt it was important to include. Growing up I used to love hearing them in the car with my Dad, whenever we were driving through London :) Lots of nostalgic memories
i mean a 32 year old genre has to have quite a lot of history.
jungle is from the streets bro
I used to Dj on one 😅
That scene in the record shop from Human Traffic is funny but is actually pretty realistic.
Trash Theory does a really good deep dive on it if you’re interested
instant goosebumps on the track demo!!
Thanks a lot! This one was very fun to make, so glad you enjoyed the track :)

I grew up with this music and it was some of the best years of my life! With this as a soundtrack, life was amazing.
I was surprised how effective and straight to the point this video is. Will be sharing it with aspiring jungle producers as a quick and simple intro to the aesthetic. Well done.
Thanks! Yes that’s my goal with this video series on my channel, I want them to give you the information in an entertaining way, that doesn’t waste your time
Great video. As someone who's been making Jungle/Hardcore for over 10 years it's lovely how simple and effective the genre can be to evoke such a vibe. Kudos!
Thanks fam, I appreciate the support :) yes you must’ve seen a lot change in the jungle genre over that time period? I’m glad it’s found it’s way back to the spotlight
Song at the beginning is a perfect recreation of 1994. Very, very specific. That's like not just learning to speak English, but learning to speak Sheffield English or Suffolk English.
Wow thank you very much, I'm glad you appreciate the subtle nuances I included. It was important to leave references and important ear candy, so that people like yourself would know I had put a lot of research and effort into the music. Thanks very much for this comment, one of my favourites I've received so far
@@christhescientist High five!
Never heard of Jungle music in my life, never saw your face before, never listened to your voice. I'm hella intrigued! I'm no producer.. unfortunately.. but this tutorial gave such an inspiration boost! Will definitely keep following, damn that editing is hella cool. Such a sucker for retro games, you really are incredible!
Awesome! Yes give it a go, it’s such a fun thing to do :) I’ll have more vids coming soon my friend
been in the game since i was 16 havent seen anything or anyone better to teach my 40 year old wife and 4 year old Daughter . Respect man
God, this brings back memories.I was a jungleist raver in germany in the nineteen nineties and it absolutely kicked ass.
Glad this could provide some nostalgia fam :)

Im a Turkish person with no music making experience and randomly introduced to this genre by you. Your video editing skills are so cool. You are creative, keep creating friend.
Jungle came from a long line of influences, not just Caribbean culture. People seem to be editing out the warehouse parties and rave side of it to fit in with The trendy narratives. The production side of this video is brilliant. Respect
Cool. Thanks!
In the 90s, I went to the first Jungle club in Berlin, the Toaster.
The MC still works today and shares the stage with people like Goldie when they come to Berlin.
Thank you, Britain, for all this music, Jungle, D&B, Triphop, IDM.

The quality of this channel is really good. You're making me think I could actually make music. Keep it up.
Thank you! And you definitely can do it
This is absolute genius. And now I know ‘Dread Bass’ is that sound I’ve always heard, loved and didn’t know the name of until now. Thank you. I’m about to go buy a Denon Dj Prime+ and maybe now I’ll know how to make Stems with it. I’m 58 btw and used to own illegal underground after hours clubs in the 80’s and 90’s and always admired the talents of the DJ’s I hired. It was different, way different back then. Technology has changed music forever and for the better. Can’t stop the music, it’s how the universe allows us to speak to it.
@@grega4220 Thanks Greg! Glad this vid could spark some nostalgia, that’s so cool you got to experience those times :) My main experience of it is being whizzed around through London in a Vauxhall Corsa with my Dad, blasting Jungle :) Which I loved

Man, nevermind the actual subject which is some of the soundtrack to our childhood, I have to say the editing of this video is top notch!
All the Windows 95 tropes, the games, the icons from back then used in the annotations - it's so well done, it makes me remember old times and I love it.
Glad you enjoyed it! It was very fun to make :) I’ll have a lot more coming soon, so thanks for this kind comment
Ah nostalgia! This brings me back to being in my 20s in the Bay Area! I was too nerdy (and overworked from jobs and college) to go to raves….but I loved the jungle/D&D club scene. It was all kinds of people dancing in their own way and just living the vibe. In contrast to the dominant grunge and gangsta rap of the era. Pure fun. Aggressive! Ethereal! Trippy! Sexy! Whatever you wanted. Good times!
new christhescientist, it's a good day
Thanks for sticking around :) I really appreciate it fam, I aim to upload more frequently in the future
Jump up jungle (at least in my area around Detroit that's what it was called) was by far my favorite sound of the time.
Man, this was so well put together - both in information and presentation. Well done, fella.
Ah I appreciate it :) thank you for taking the time to comment and show support, it means a lot!

You’re welcome Mark! Keep creating and having fun, grateful these could help
Proper trip down memory lane. Loved the Windows look with the attention to the little pop up clips and FX (and clippy lol). Loved it, especially the intro with a bit of history. If I had time and budget I’d love to make an expansive documentary on the history of jungle and D&B in the vein of Netflix’s Evolution of Hip Hop.
Thanks my friend, that’s high praise coming from a creator as talented as you :) Glad you enjoyed it
So glad you’ve made this! 😀🙏 I was a huge jungle (then d’n’b) fan back when it came out in the 90s, and still am today. Having a sound engineering and musical background to some degree, I especially appreciate this. Amazingly (and I seem to not be the only one), you (and others) managed to make me discover stuff that I never knew about it, like which samples were used, some history of where it came from etc. So thank you!
Thanks for the kind comment! I really appreciate it my friend :) Glad you enjoyed

I’m glad you liked the video :) Thanks for this lovely comment my friend
A couple of years ago I started experimenting with some of the electronic sounds I remember from the 90s, trying to creatively incorporate them in my own stuff. This gave me some ideas, told a cool story, and has vibes for days. The Win95 desktop is a great touch.

First step to making jungle "from" the 90s is to build a time machine.
This was absolutely fucking incredible. I JUST bought a couple of midi controllers to try out, hoping to inspire me to get back into beat making.

Great video Chris, with music history and production tips all in 5 minutes! Radio Caroline was the OG pirate radio station broadcasting from a boat and it's still going. Sadly, it never played jungle, it's mostly a rock station. I remember searching the FM dial for pirate stations in London in the 90s and recording shows to cassette. What a vibe, what a time! :)

@@Cherries956 Thanks for the sub! I really appreciate it
Oh! I was just expecting to hear a song, but this is a genuinely useful tutorial that actually teaches you how to make Jungle music. And normally tutorials tell you how to make one specific song, but this just teaches you the concepts. I'm happily surprised and very impressed!
I love how sparse yet full 90s jungle sounded. Modern EDM seems far too busy and over produced.
Yes it definitely is nice to listen to
Totally agree. 90s jungle tunes were sparse because of technical limitations, but the producers made the best of what they had. It made us realise that all you really need is a drum break, sub bass, and a pad or vocal sample and that's 90% of the tune done
they dont make these types of music like they used to jungle music is a throwback for me it takes me back to my childhood
Its because everything is made on modern equipment, its just doesn't sound raw anymore. I for one don't like the polished sound of today. Its just sounds 'tinny' to my ears and lacks thrust!
@@straightouttacornwall yeah, for real.
that example track was spot on. woah
Thank you very much! I take great pride in my music production, so as much as I try and make these videos entertaining, the main focus is always the track shown. So thanks for showing that love
PS. we called it "atmospheric dnb"
Listening to this kind of music for decades and never know what's the proper name to call this style of music.
