@@Estuera I prefer breakbeat over gabber, but cool beat bro. :) Can you try combining breakbeat with old-school Oliver Heldens future house synths/bass next? Future Breaks?
It is the music that made me really look into how it was made and this is how I first learned about 909's, the Alpha Juno, Akai samplers, ... So yes, even though I never actually released any real hardcore myself and have been very deep into the trance scene it will certainly always have a special nostalgic place in my heart :D
whaddya mean, "not good for radio" on late night community or pirate radio, banging the choons hard midnight to dawn thursdays telling' ya the toll number to call to get the location of the event they're playing at come tomorrow morning at 4?! ;-)))
We need to get all them fossils out and make a radio station that would play stuff like this and other electronic music. Then again, nobody listens to radio these days.
This surely would have been a great track on "Thunderdome 8" or "Earthquake 5" with a title like "Estuera 909 - Raving Lunatic (Streetfighter Mix)"! And I absolutely love it!
YES DUDE!!!! Of all the 'hardcore' or 'gabber' tutorials I've seen on youtube, you're the ONLY one who actually nails it! Excellent job man, you did wonderful!
This is phenomenal. As a kid, i listened to so much gabber and this absolutely nails it - sounds like something straight off of one of the Thunderdome compilations!
I made all of my Hardcore Releases back in the mid 90’s basically like this. First I sampled everything and put it in an Amiga 500, later with a TR 909, 2 Alpha Juno’s, soundcraft Ghost and a Sampler. Only thing is, the Alpha Juno can make the sound you made with it on its own. Just take the ‘What the…’ preset it has built in. Change the beginning and the end, and voila, the ‘Dominator sound’ straight out of the Juno…
Gabber influence is sneaking its way into the techno scene nowadays, and even though I was never into gabber itself I’ve been really enjoying what artists like VTSS have been doing with it
@@ZombiesWerePeopleToo think it started sneaking in a few years ago tbh. Almost feel like it's got nearly mainstream enough that people will start rejecting it again haha and so the cycle continues
Lekker hoor! De meeste producers van tegenwoordig die de oude stijl proberen terug te halen zijn om te janken, maar met deze track kom je wel heel dichtbij het echte geluid van toen! Bedankt hiervoor! 👍🏻
Me: Let's watch this video even though I'm not into early hardcore/gabber anymore, just for nostalgia sake.. .. Also me after wathcing the video: Scrambles to find all the stowed-away Thunderdome CD's
You really nailed this sound.Gabber was massive in Scotland when I was a teenager and this really takes me back to bouncing like a lunatic all over the place! 😊🎶 Great times
@@Ravinstomper Bouncy techno was old Scott Brown though he made gabber too. Paul Elstak was a fan of Brown's Shoop and Evolution releases and started to make similar 'fun lighter' stuff by 1994-95 (Forze, Babyboom, etc). Ruffneck (big in Scotland) called his stuff artcore though few used that. / A Scot who went to Rez, Fubar, etc. back in the day. Great days.
Brilliant flashback to the 90s.... Feels like it was yesterday and you made sound like it was yesterday too.... Brilliant work and a brilliant track ... Pumping good .... Well done Jonas ... Loved it .... Now I really want a Disco Buiscut....lol👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🇮🇪
I never liked Gabber but still found this fascinating. I suppose when Gabber was getting popular, I was fully in on Jungle at the same time and honestly had no interest in anything with a 4 on the floor but now that I'm older I appreciate a much wider variety of electronic dance music styles.
After a visit to the Netherland I came home with a thunderdome compilation and well. I was hooked. This was pretty much in the same lane. fun to see how it was made. Never did any drugs, but doing exercise while listening to hardcore was my thing.
One of my fav genres gabber finally demystified for me. To think the kick has just been from a drum machine this whole time kills me instead of some over engineered synth sound, but it makes so much since.
It still is being made theres lots of classic hardcore gabber tracks being made checkout rotjecore records gabberhead records no new style records mokum records total destruction records i make classic hardcore and sometimes gabber tracks all 90.s styled on labels like rotjecore records and other labels so the 90.s sounds have not gone away also ruffneck records is throwing out the real classic dutch hardcore sounds again 🙂👍
This takes me back to my days, on my 486 with gravis ultrasound card, loading the samples up in Fast Tracker 2, it was awesome, i made many tracks.. only shared with friends tho... i wasn't bad but too shy to ever produce.
I remember when my homie Nick dropped Euromasters “alles klaar de kote “ (spelling? I’m not Dutch) in a club on Long Island. Half the crowd went batshit for it and loved it. The others stood in confusion. RIP Nicky Father Fingers-[Disciples of Annihilation- Industrial strength records].
Yeah, alles naar de klote (everything "to" pieces) is a classic, especially that farmer at the start ("Rotterdam, Amsterdam, ik wee' allebei niet waar da' ligt") is iconic
As usual, a stellar track using the compositional elements of the original genre. Well done. Even the pitching up and placement of the Street Fighter movie sample was spot on. I have watched so many hours of movies and television shows to find little bits from them to sample after seeing it the first time in some random out of the way location or at some unexpected time.
Okay. 3 things. Thank you for keeping history of 90' s rave culture from being lost. Also, I have the TR8S, and I am so happy to have more people to learn off of. Lastly, I just went into debt to buy an Elektron Analog Heat mkII, and it has a notch filter that you can assign the LFO to, so thanks for the breakdown!
From the title I was expecting something on hardware only :D like we were back in the 90s, but at least it's already mostly machines, and only a tiny bit computer. Good job!
Some of the best gabber was made in recent years imo. I recommend anything by Azrael, and after checking out some of that check out D.O.S. by Azrael-II
You can call the music genre whatever you want, and you are most likely right, but to me that was some of the best old school techno I have heard in quite a long time...and the music video you made for it was perfect.. Makes me want to pull all my Techno-Rave collection CD's out of the closet now...I have dozens of them...
In my early teenage years this music was one of the styles I listened to most and it pointed me towards taking my first steps into electronic music production. (Reading interviews and howtos from producers like Maurice Steenbergen in Thunder Magazine) So it was a genre I simply could not skip for this series :)
@@Estuera this is so cool, thank you for your content. I'm only 24 but gabber brought me in music production as well. i think that video is the one and only that is proper in the meaning of the gabber sound if we're talking about youtube tutorials. absolutely authentic!
Great track. Sounds like back then. Gabber is insane! ♥ And man, the visuals are priceless! Your music and videos always put a smile on my face, and this one is no exception. Love this channel! 🙏
You’re amazing. Very happy I found you. Would love a video where you turn your whole setup around and show a detailed review of how you patch all your synths, drum modules, fx boxes, midi boxes, mixer, computer all together! Great job!! Thank you!
im from uk , started listening to hardcore hard trance in like 1994/5 on rave tapes , first rave was in jan 1997 , gabber (didnt know it was called that back then) we called it all bouncy techno lol was and is my fave along with belgium/german trance sound this tune is basically made from then , you could say to someone listen to track i found from 1995 and they would believe you 100% banging dude , love it subbed off this alone
I keep coming back to this video for the kick and hoover sound. Seriously, great job, Jonas. Thanks again! I never knew how to create this "pull up the fader during a kick roll" sound. So simple and natural with analogue gear.

nice vid! i used to have a stack of thunderdome cassettes when i was a kid in the 90s, wish i still had them. i loved artists like rob gee, neophyte, da predator, omar santana, rotterdam terror corpse, inferno bros, the stunned guys, etc etc... great memories! a personal fav was - buzz fuzz - destroyer, absolute classic
Back when Kicks actually had some body to them, instead of just being a "beep". I was born in 91, so not really in the age to be around when it came up, but i got in touch with that style in the early 2000s. And i always had a soft spot for it. Great video!
Had my mouth open the entire video -- everytime you created the sounds, all those hours i spent in the 2000's listening to this music, it all came back. I got more into new retro wave, vaporwave, and the explosion of indie music in the past decade so its been awhile since i've ventured into the early hardcore music. Going through all of Thunderdome back in middle school was one of the greatest musical moments of my life, as well as experiencing new releases in the mid 2000's with things like Masters of Hardcore. I even have old recordings i made of Masters of Hardcore radio from 2004, which i often listened to in school -- In america, this music is essentially non-existent, so it felt like i discovered some other world when i found this style of music on the Winamp ShoutCast stations. Thanks so much for making this video! never subbed faster in my life lmao. At some point i'd love to own a lot of these synths and musical devices you're using, to at least preserve or try my hand at shaping the magical vibe of gabber into some new shit.
Holy crap man, this is awesome! This could have been on any Thunderdome CD, really good. Oh, how that Juno still shreds.. Really good stuff! Would love to see you do a more recent, industrial-styled hardcore track. Subbed!

@Mr. Sophistication if this music does not give you goosebumps, it's not for you, move on, goodbye
@Mr. Sophistication i'm rarely listening to hardcore at home but going to a hardcore party is fucking fun... it's a workout... You should try it ;)
"Certainly not radio friendly music at all." That's probably the best brief comment on Gabber I have heard.
Several gabber hits ended up in the charts in Holland. Rotterdam Termination Source, Ruffneck, Dj Paul... you name it

It because of the Dutch accent.
This definitely a great in depth tutorial, but I would argue Frank Jav Cee nailed it as well.
I cant be the only one who still love and want more of this music
obviously not
check out Mokum records, they've been putting out a lot of releases in the early rave style for the past years.
@@rekeltje Will do! thanks for the suggestion
video has ended and I'm left thinking; drop me in a club with this playing
THUNDERDOOOOOOOOOME
This is phenomenal. As a kid, i listened to so much gabber and this absolutely nails it - sounds like something straight off of one of the Thunderdome compilations!
909 kick with overdrive sounds amazing 606 kick works just as good too but definitely need them 909 hats
I made all of my Hardcore Releases back in the mid 90’s basically like this.

Any chance of getting a listen of your releases? You got me kinda curious now :)

As a 90s Gabberhead I can confirm, you just nailed it
If someone said this was a gabber track from like 1996 I would of believed them, incredible job!!
As a music lover I really appreciate the time you spend explaining the history behind the music genre
The sound of electronic chaos, perfect fit for this era of revolutionary mind-blowing electronic technologies.
Gabber is a secret pleasure music of all serious techno DJs :)

So sick. There are still a handful of producers making things with this feel, DJ Technorch "Metalic Mind" is a great example.
I've been trying to get this vibe popular again waah
i love everything about this video, thank you for making it!!!

Happy hardcore always takes me back to my youth. Dj stu Allan on my local radio back in the 90s. He recently passed away R.I.P
Back when Kicks actually had some body to them, instead of just being a "beep". I was born in 91, so not really in the age to be around when it came up, but i got in touch with that style in the early 2000s. And i always had a soft spot for it. Great video!
just in time tho for when hardstyle still was good
Kicks today are too "round", they miss the punchy click. The 909 kick will always be the best one.
Which track has a beep for a kick?

Oh this was a fun trip down nostalgia lane!
This is identical to rave if the drop was a breakbeat. It's almost uncanny valley hearing with this beat! Good vid
This brings me back. Gabber and HHC were the shit back in the day.
love this series!
Absolute master!! Thank you for the showcase! 🙂
I have a Mackie CR 1604 mixer from the 90s and it does this distorted kick sound very well.. alot of times, when not even desired (; lol.
I have a few Happy Rave and Thunderdome CDs laying around. Aah, the memories of the 90's. Thanks for taking us back to the 90's.
Me now running down to the basement: "Where're all my records from the 90s!"
Perfect ! Back to my 15 years old
Holy crap man, this is awesome! This could have been on any Thunderdome CD, really good. Oh, how that Juno still shreds.. Really good stuff! Would love to see you do a more recent, industrial-styled hardcore track. Subbed!
