Born in 1984, I was 8 years old in 1992 and already two years into my Techno and DnB discovery via secret late-night FM radio sessions in my bedroom living in the barely-populated Esk Valley of Tasmania... I asked for a set of basic headphones for my 8th birthday so I could tune in and listen to the tunes at 2am in the morning while my parents slept. I would turn up to primary school the next day for grade 2 completely wrecked from a lack of sleep, but heck, I was one of a handful of students who didn't struggle with the work, so I managed to get through the day's arithmetic and spelling quizzes anyway. Little did I know then that this would be the beginning of a very long personal career into adulthood of late nights, laser lights, party prescriptions, beautiful women, great friendships and soul-enriching international travel to seek out the music I had fallen in love with in that childhood bedroom in the days before omnipotent internet.

I keep seeing people mentioning Playstation in the same breath as this kind of music and I can't think of a single game that had music anything like this.
@@pwnedshift1they aren't wrong. There is an entire era of games dominated by Jungle/DnB. Most would probably mention Wipeout or Ape Escape or Bomberman as prime examples.
@@pwnedshift1 For me it was PC and UT '99... That was quite the experience, I still remember the residual adrenaline after an hour of shooting aliens and robots to Michiel van den Bos! Been listening to Jungle & DnB ever since.
This music was also throwback to 60s 70s jazz fusion. Although electronic, the Jungle drums and flute instruments sound reminiscing of that fusion sound. But I think the 90s electronic version gets the point across better. I could be wrong. We DONT know every music even with TH-cam. My aunt had milk crates of endless vinyl. Acid rock mostly she bought eons ago when it was new release. I used to go through those albums early 80s searching for heavy stuff. ‘Stoned guitar’ was one., I found on TH-cam. There was others. She had everything released between late 50s through early 70s
There's a song called 'The look of love' on The Late Great Ahmad Jamal(RIP) 'Tranquility' album from late 60s i think. That literally sounds like a band playing Jungle/D&B, amazing tune.
Thank You mate, you have set the mood perfectly. We won't quibble over years, I feel like I'm in that Car vibing to the Music. Great sound quality too!! ❤❤❤❤❤
@@markverhoeven4114 yeah I know past and future tense. This still makes no sense. Are we dealing with time traveling music from the future? Guess I'm just stupid.
My first atmospheric D'n'B moment, likely would've been thanks to those forward-thinking Japanese developers at NAMCO. "Okay, so we've got the game all lined up-yeah, *Rage Racer* . Thats the one." "Nice, continue." "Well, everything seems cool and all but we're torn on soundtracking ideas." "Ah.... Try throwing some breakbeats on and tell me how the experience feels." history was made, meanwhile my half-formed child brain was just head-bobbing away to myself, blissfully unaware that I was listening to history-in-the-making.
@@reinisrudzitis4802 Unreal Tournament was my next experience with gaming and D'N'B combined. I missed the Ridge Racer bus for the horror-games carousel in those years between Rage Racer and my first PC-gaming experience. Liminal and Zombie games, with odd smatterings of Metal Gear Solid etc until that moment I found Michiel van den Bos' "Foregone Destruction."
Some DnB tracts are 30 years old now. Still sounding fresh. If you went back to 1994 when they came out, and then go back 30 years, your in the land of early Beatles, Smokey Robinson and Roy Orbison. Seems like the creation of new musical genres is lacking now. Maybe we made all the cool categories already?
Nah I think the problem has more to do with record companies demanding less creativity and more homogeneity progressively over time. Obviously not to say that every era didn't have that one plasticy mass-produced genre (much of 80s pop in its heyday was about nearly as reviled as today's club music is; Rick Astley for example was once upon a time that very kind of mass-producing artist). It just seems like more genres these days are like that now. In fact I think social media influence has contributed to making the problem even worse. It's just become yet another arm for business labels who want to take as few risks as possible for the most perceived profit ("Make your song sound almost exactly like this ").
Was running my first BBS right before finding out about CompuServe and AOL in 92... Not the music I was listening to but I appreciate it now that I'm older. eLECTRiC iLLUSiONz
Not just the DnB was great back then. I am just playing "Taucher & DJ Koma - Happiness (Dr. Atmo Remix)" which came out just 1 year later, in 1993 -- it's a great track. The old electronic stuff had so calm synths, doesn't matter if trance or other genres, I loved it...
I found atmospheric or what some were calling intelligent dnb/jungle in 96. It was mind melting to me at the time. Good looking records were the dominant ones.
Well first tunes of this genre came out in like late 1994 and they still were mostly jungle/breakbeat/hardcore orientated, they were known as early jungle, there wasnt really a specific subgenre back then. The actual atmospheric dnb appeared around 1996 and was pretty livid till like ~2001 or so. After that it turned to liquid, which is faster bpm and overall less complex sound. The actual "atmospheric dnb" from the early 90, such as video implies - 1992 sounds completely different and is mostly experimental, the Jungle itself started at around early 90s and started to really kick in at around 94s something. Everything before that was experimental. Very few, if any, tunes from ~1992 can be strictly cattegorized as atmospheric dnb or even as jungle itself it was mostly hardcore back then - heavy on the breaks, dnb on the other hand is built mostly on the "amen break" a single drum pattern. Hardcore was not limited to that or not built on it alone.
Thought as much. 1992 was a little early for "dnb". Also, I've never heard of "atmospheric". I've heard of "intelligent dnb" but back in the day I was more interested in hardstep and happy hardcore. All a bit much for me these days. I'm exploring ambient and drone music. :o)
Thanks for pointing out. Even myself being early on Breakbeats, i remember only 2 clubs being open in 1992in Germany that i been to. All the records i have from those times are basically whitelabels. Just looks up the tracks on discogs and realize this is more the 94-9X era. Still nice to enjoy.
there was a time when Ed Rush & Optical ( pioneers in my opinion ) came up . I heard it on non commercial radio and was hooked up at once. Nowadays still going strong with al the variants comining by..
I listened to hardcore in 91, then jungle in 93, I didn't hear the term drum n bass until 94. These tunes sound later on like 97, early jungle wasn't very well produced. LTJ Bukem started this 'intelligent' sound which has now been termed 'Liquid' Feel free to point me out on all my errors ha ha 🎶

LTJ Bukem & MC Conrad (RIP) BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 1995 - probably the best mix ever if you like this style of dnb
Really everything from Bukem and his label in the mid to late 90s. Why this genre is not more favored over the harder DnB is beyond me

1995 to 1997 makes more sense for this style of drum and bass or even using the term drum and bass than 1992.
Yeah all these zoomers getting the 2000s and early 90s confused is so weak.
But you see the construction of an aesthetic around a period of history that bears no ressemblence to how it actually was, just like how the late 2000s reconstructed a version of the 80s that never existed, even reappropriating the word 'new wave' but to refer to flurescent ravers instead of edgar alan poe quoting goths and punks as it was originally.
