True story - I played rainbow 6 for 2 years with my clan. One day one of the clan members said "I am Goldie" we all said yer right. He invited us to London. It was him we watched him DJ and then spent the night hanging out with him. I played ranbow 6 with him for 2 year and met him he was very kind and just a nice guy -- If Goldie see this it B0re peace brother.
Watching this in 2021 is so sad, the entire ethos of "the club" has been lost, the youth of today don't know what they missed, the gentrification of music, fashion, aspiration and soul has completely destroyed the inspirational vibe of being unique and fighting against the normality of forced "adulthood". Now it's about looking good in a trendy wine bar with a £5,000 outfit, back then it was about losing yourself in another world, not caring about anybody or anything other than the music, the friendships, and the absolute captivation of good production & Dj'ing. I honestly feel truly sorry for kid's growing up today, they will never ever experience the dark sweaty energy of the underground, there will only ever be a cheap plastic imitation pushed by corporations, I still go to festivals, raves, big clubs etc, but nothing has the same vibe and energy as when thing's where less controlled and sterile.
eloquently stated my friend. i wouldnt speak in such absolutes tho, i think some of the juke/footwork scene in chicago managed to take it there again. and the realness is always quietly waiting for everyone around to wake up to it. so all is not lost as much as it feels that way to people like us, a 90's junglist and underground rave kid myself, regardless of how hopeless it feels at times.
Goldie is so clued up it's scary he's read you like a book without looking at you take it from a good reader just not as good as Goldie. What a fella !
Found a timeless album cassette at a flea market about six months ago! Completely fell in love with, and then funny enough just yesterday I found the vinyl at an op shop ( thrift store ) truly a blessing that I came across his masterpiece!
One of the true greats of british music. Timeless was one of the greatest albums of ALL time. This album he put out is amazing and will probably become another classic journey man will be looked at as another masterpiece. Artists like chase and status keeping drum and bass relevant and timeless.
Goldie has been a true hero of mine since 95. I've been blessed to be aquainted with him on a few occasions at my friend's club Respect in L.A in CA the last 2 times that I can remember. Much respect to him as an artist and as a person and speaking as a long time fan.
Timeless and Inner city life were a lifetime ago when musical tastes were much different. It was eye opening.. it was ground breaking but times are different.. thats why none of his other records have done anything close to that... it was a snapshot.. it was his moment in time. Thats what makes it so special.. if every tune and album of his was a zinger, inner city life wouldnt be half as special as it is..
markdafunky1 yeah i know, im not just listening to old music to be hipster, i like new stuff thats underground, (rap grime garage jungle indie). youre right 90s music overall kills everything
...indeed. But you're listening to it now, so kudos to you. Am 45 now, so was fortunate to have experienced the birth and evolution of this music and met a few folk along the path. Peace to you.
Fuck me. I've watched all the British Master series from their beginning of it on youtube, and let me say this. First of all John fucking Dorian is the greatest musical interviewer ever - closely after Nardwar (wash my mouth I'm half english so..) Oasis is one of my favourite bands ever, Zepplin, The Fall, Pistols, T Rex, Dizzee, Smiths, The Verve, Manic Streets, TRICKY - no disrespect to anyone missed, particularly birds. This interview is absolute gold for the 90's kid bent on good or bad gear in a dark room (puns not intended). I'm from New Zealand by birth and our Dub, DnB, jungle, garage listening is pretty close to heart in scenes for honesty and a good time. Goldie is everything you want of the best era of and he's given it all on this one. Up Metalheadz, long may we dub to the beat of legends like this don, and to all the Isles bless our ears with. X
wow I am actually shocked Rob Playford got a credit at 3:23, let us not forget that Rob actually produced the Timeless album!, He is what made that album what it was, does not get enough credit.
Can't produce or Dj in my opinion. Been a jungle / DNB fan since the mid 90's and he's always been shocking on the decks. Your also spot on about the fact he never gives any of his engineers credit. Main reason why he has a new one for every album. There's Rob Playford, Heist and now the Ulterior Motive guys. Mans a leech that uses his name to take the credit for other peoples hard work
Absolutely, Playford is the only person behind Timeless who you could call a genuine genius. AFAIK, put Goldie in a studio with every bit of kit needed to make an LP and he wouldn't know where to start.He may make suggestions and have 'ideas', but turning those ideas into something musical will always be the most difficult part of writing/composing music.
it's pathetic how many people upvote this crap comment! you're totally oblivious to the fact that his compositions is what's most important in his work. he imagines, composes all of his tunes from start to finish. Are you saying Beethoven was a leech as well? I mean fuck, he still uses orchestras to play pieces he wrote! without giving them credit! Go ahead and watch a video of G and Heist in the studio.
I'd like to just add something to the debate down there about Goldies role in the music vs the producer, whoever it is, but i'm going to take Rob Playford as the example and Timeless as the record. Goldie could not have made Timeless himself but neither could Rob. One had the studio expertise, one had the ideas to use the technology to create something new. Without George Martin, The Beatles records would not have been even interesting, judging by their demos. Without The Beatles, George Martin would have been still making comedy records with Peter Sellers. Without Playford, Goldie would have been just another fast talker with 'ideas' on the rave scene, vice versa, Playford would be just another studio nerd, making obscure rave records, brilliant as they were. And it all gets settled behind the scenes, on the publishing contract.
Does anyone know the name of the documentary/bio that was about Goldie. It showed him visiting some of the places from his childhood, like his old school. And also showed him finding his dad. The video used to be on youtube but i cant seem to find it anymore.
Just walk round heath town in Wolverhampton. Just need to be careful it's not a great place. Still got a pieces of art he created around. They tried to get rid of them.
Judge Goldie however you want but if anything he is totally honest also Misunderstood and criticised ! I’m no drum and bass fan but he created a masterpiece .Watch his Ted Talk it will give you a different perspective on this amazing guy !

Yes lad packet always bring people together
Some jungle juice with the jungle master yeah
You wouldn't have sniffed glue with Goldie, that would have been goldilocks back then
Soulless subhumans 😂
@@comanche1234 I’m afraid I did
Inner city life is one of the best songs I've ever heard. Utterly timeless
nw10represent nice one 😂😂😂
That song gives me so much nostalgia 💎
It sends me to a place I love going too!
the Nookie remix is my personal fave version
Man like Goldie always dropping knowledge. #pioneer
This series is class please never end it
This is a great interview! Goldie feels very insightful and wise, i could listen to him for way longer than this.
Yeah but his kid is banged up for murder so maybe not

Don’t worry mate there’s still some of us out there! We’re doing our bit to keep it alive
Come to Shambhala in Canada and see Goldie this July 😁
@@danaisallin3346 nice been thinking about that gathering

My Stoner Mind thats sad i feel bad for u guys if hes a legend there TRASH
da real smotpoker, most people tend to think their opinions matter, unfortunately much like yours, they don't.
Stephan V it must got ur attention
yes, your bad grammar got my attention alright. Maybe go get yourself an education?
Stephan V Teach or shut up
Inner City LIfe is one of the deepest tracks ever.
Goldie is so clued up it's scary he's read you like a book without looking at you take it from a good reader just not as good as Goldie. What a fella !
Timeless, exactly what Goldie and his music will always be. Most especially to any true to the heart dnb fan such as myself.
This guy was in a James Bond movie, The World is Not Enough
Timeless still gives me goosebumps
Badboy Yardies, we create the bodies, we don't erase the bodies.
😂was looking for this hahahha

Lucky to have seen him live. Truly deserving of the title 'British Master'.
One of the true greats of british music. Timeless was one of the greatest albums of ALL time. This album he put out is amazing and will probably become another classic journey man will be looked at as another masterpiece.
Artists like chase and status keeping drum and bass relevant and timeless.
I remember this guy from the movie "Snatch"
Berzerker King13 yup ahah the robbers
heroinhero69 boss I'm glad you're alive!
Whereas the rest of us watched "Snatch", saying "I remember that guy from Metal fucking Headz. Go back to Hospitality BITCH
"I create the bodies, I don't erase the bodies!"
Berzerker King13 "this guy" 😂😂 that's goldie you mug
seen him a couple of times live and he was the best i ever everyone just went bonkers for a hour it was great
Just discovered Goldie and loving his music 💜
Goldie has been a true hero of mine since 95. I've been blessed to be aquainted with him on a few occasions at my friend's club Respect in L.A in CA the last 2 times that I can remember. Much respect to him as an artist and as a person and speaking as a long time fan.
I’m American and I can honestly say that Goldie is #Legendary!
This was an epic interview and fairplay to the host, he did actually ask some banger of questions.
Timeless and Inner city life were a lifetime ago when musical tastes were much different. It was eye opening.. it was ground breaking but times are different.. thats why none of his other records have done anything close to that... it was a snapshot.. it was his moment in time. Thats what makes it so special.. if every tune and album of his was a zinger, inner city life wouldnt be half as special as it is..
Timeless changed my life and still does.
Imagine if they did one with Burial. Oh my goooooshh.....
SelfReferencingName That would be incredible
Won't not never happen.
@LDN EDD I disagree. Burial is so influential on the entirety of electronic music. Total master imo
@@unknownunknown9939 Kraftwerk lol shut up
@@oboqoo ????
hes a true artist. Glad he came back
Much Love From Canada 🇨🇦. Come over and play some gigs here. We've all been waiting eh!
king goldie
shame i was born in the 90s rather than growing up in it.
Musherrr yeah mate, the 90's music scene was probably the rawest, yet had the most soul to each tune that was put out compared to music today.
markdafunky1 yeah i know, im not just listening to old music to be hipster, i like new stuff thats underground, (rap grime garage jungle indie). youre right 90s music overall kills everything
...indeed.
But you're listening to it now, so kudos to you.
Am 45 now, so was fortunate to have experienced the birth and evolution of this music and met a few folk along the path.
Peace to you.
think this all the time
Ya missed it mate!
You started my D&B journey - I'm 41 . Yes, Timeless was the start - I have a headz tat.... oh boy.
you are an absolute legend mr. Goldie. thank you.
Never heard of Goldie till now but I will be checking his music out and bumping that ish!
telepathy90 go back and check out timeless, it's immense
telepathy90 I knew him from graffiti never knew he made tunes as well
WIsh we had more opportunity to hear from Goldie, really interesting and articulate person.
Incredible series of interviews, this one is a belter!!
love this interview, glad there is a new album!

Blue Note back in the day. Talvin Singh, Storm, Fabio, just brilliant. Seems so long ago
this is the guy that makes me love dnb even more and more, such a legend
Goldie's shadow is still my all time favorite DnB tune!!!!!!
Diane Charlemagne, Timeless
Ruff daddy. Respect Goldie for his foresight and talant. He's always uptodate!
I’ve always believed the best tracks , specifically DNB . Have that balance of beauty and power . Love Goldie and Headz . Respect 👊🏻🤘🏻🙏🏻
Big up goldie. Top lad.
spiritual dude. Luv it
God damn this was a great interview
utterly brilliant interview
Brilliant interview. Goldie is a master
GOLDIE!!!!!
wow I am actually shocked Rob Playford got a credit at 3:23, let us not forget that Rob actually produced the Timeless album!, He is what made that album what it was, does not get enough credit.
well said, anyone who knows the history knows that Goldie has always had an 'engineer' doing everything for him
Yep, I have noticed that Goldie seems to not mention that fact in any interview I have seen,
Most people think he produce's everything himself
Can't produce or Dj in my opinion. Been a jungle / DNB fan since the mid 90's and he's always been shocking on the decks. Your also spot on about the fact he never gives any of his engineers credit.

D&B is a daily addiction. thx headz - thx rengade - thx ram :) thx everyone I write this too..
GOLDIE A FUCKING GOD
He said it was long winded at the end, it was anything but! Love these two blokes though both of them masters
30 years plus in the dnb music scene and still going.
"That was a bit fucking long-winded". Well, Goldie, you didn't half go on!!
The Journey Man = Stunning!
Glad I got to meet and hang out with him one random crazy night in Miami in 02 or 03, cool as hell and crazy as fuck, Goldie is the man!!!
I'm excited for the burial remix of inner city life that's coming out on RSD 2017.
This is a great interview !!
best series noisy have ever done by a long long way.
'I wanted to make an album that was for grown ups' - Goldie 2017.
complete and utter genius
Such an interesting complex character wow
not many people i would like to talk about dance music with but he is defo one
Cannot wait for this album!
i seen him in loads of things keep it up
Legend nuff said
dope ass interview.
Hi I saw Goldie the rapper in Thailand . Railay beach sand sea resort

And it all gets settled behind the scenes, on the publishing contract.
Rob Playford and A guy called Gerald both helped Goldie Immensely in the 90's, It's a shame Goldie doesn't seem to give them the credit they deserve
Le Aussie Outdoorsman You mean 4 Hero. Rob Playford was important, but 4 Hero were his musical mentors.
Many unsung heroes helped create the DnB scene.
Fascinating geezer
Ha ace, John went to the blue note, top bloke.
... need to hear Dillinja 'Silverblade' loud now. Nice one Goldicus!
Such a wise and fascinating character.
where can i find that film make some noise: goldie by gus?
9:39 idk man. That J majik Final Approach track on the platinum breaks compilation is flames
His boiler room mix was fire
Which one?
Oi Noisey we need some more of these
It takes some doing to make a career out of making music without actually making the music. Learning to talk like David Brent seems to have helped
Great interview. Saturnz Return is my joint over Timeless as amazing and infinite as Timeless is.
You didn't get his autograph on one of your records...!
goldie thank you for inspiring me to be a dj!!!!!!!!
The convo is really hard to follow, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt
Whats the track throughout the interview?
Does anyone know the name of the documentary/bio that was about Goldie. It showed him visiting some of the places from his childhood, like his old school. And also showed him finding his dad. The video used to be on youtube but i cant seem to find it anymore.
Just walk round heath town in Wolverhampton.
Just need to be careful it's not a great place.
Still got a pieces of art he created around. They tried to get rid of them.
Bombin was a docu about him from the 80s. dont remember him tracking his dad down though.
Judge Goldie however you want but if anything he is totally honest also Misunderstood and criticised ! I’m no drum and bass fan but he created a masterpiece .Watch his Ted Talk it will give you a different perspective on this amazing guy !
OMG!! Do you know how long I have been searching for the track I now know to be "phantom force"
Gateman by Digital is along the same lines and just as amazing imho
He creates the bodies, not erases them.
The don dadda himself
That was really great.
Anyone else get a slight Tommy Saxondale vibe from Goldie nowadays?
Goldie rockin that Goro's strong.
What an inspiring dude.
Can the presentator be any more british?
..presentator?
He's English. Wtf does make someone 'more British'? Stupid statement.
F****** Legend
Timeless is the "illmatic" of EDM
And the award for most American comment ever goes to...
the guys a genius
Underground legend.
Brilliant inteviewer x

great interviewer
