The sound of a future that never was. so cool
The y2k era is depressingly nostalgic.
I agree it's enough to make a grown man cry 😭. I was promised jetpacks but all I got was a fight on Twitter.
@@Sol-Amar I think you put it perfectly.
someone doesnt listen to oli xl
yep back in the 2000's i thought the future was going to be awesome now it's a dystopian nightmare.
DnB: the yesterday sound of tomorrow, today.
so true
well put sir!
actually yelled “yeah!!” at reading this
A New Life Awaits You
The Off-World Colonies
Jazz transcends time, space, and every genre
I think the reason we feel nostalgic for the 90's is because the future still looked like a better place.
Yup: Star Trek was still optimistic, web 1.0 had such great freedom, people werent so dependent on technology, and the technology that did come out might've been less user friendly but more consumer oriented, racism was generally thought to be a thing of the past, people were still able to hold a conversation... you either die a youngster or see yourself become the person praising the good old days...but then again the fact that we were kids with almost no responaibilities and many things went over our heads helped romanticise this era and reminds me of this baudrillard quote: when the real is no longer what it was, nostalgia asumes its full meaning.
@@9an13l Well put. There's hope yet though, people, such as myself, are ditching their smartphones and returning to a flip phone, minimalizing our use of technology that really doesn't make us anymore connected or happy. I tend to romanticize the past, sometimes I get stuck watching old home videos in VHS and listening to such music as this, in moderation it can be nostalgic, often it depresses or embolizes me, making me despise the current, the now, I'm conscious of it though.
@@osiamfilms that is indeed very optimistic, but grasping and accepting the reciprocating influence between quality of content and its effects on the end-consumer, makes me pretty depressed about the ever increasing 1dimensionality and now in 2022 almost non existing impulse control within our younger generations and even peers or a few older people. Never before was it so evident that "we live in a society" , and so diving into stoicism while still being pretty bad at it is one attempt to takle the more personal aspects of living in our futureless endless present...
@@osiamfilms Love the thread here... helps me make sense of all this. I was born in 93 so only briefly got to feel that magic but it was enough, still is enough honestly, to keep me going and trying to make the future better. I work in tech but want to have a bigger impact on this initiative. Seeing convos like this helps keep me driven.
boy were we wrong.
This music sounded like the future to me as a kid. The games intertwined with these kind of songs made the whole gaming experience so real and unforgettable.
This. It's so weird how back then when the game was accompanied with this style of music it felt somehow so futuristic and developed. Now looking back it's the sound of gaming nostalgia for me.
@@CloneOhHigh Most of the games were "flawless" by today's standards. The lack of information and interconnectedness made the journey more otherworldly. Because of the internet, nowadays artists are influenced by the same musicians that they are exposed to the most by the (TH-cam) algorithm. If you would like to create music you just basically search for "how to make jungle dnb" on TH-cam. I think the part of the magic is that we had no idea how these music were made in the 90s.
It still sounds like the future to me it just not the one that we got.
Really makes you feel sad in a good way for the times we had growing up to this right!?
@@Shels_pwnz that's called nostalgia
This era of gaming had some incredible music.
what changed man... what changed....
The discovering of new ways of living
@@TheSergio1021 The Era.
I currently work in games and this kind of music would be criticized as: "Porn Music" or "Too Trippy" for games. The companies are currently too big and too scared to do anything really cool so when making games, always thinking of the "average" audience and what a 12 year old kid would like. Games like in this playlist were made by people who also enjoyed making it and wanted to put some of themselves in it, especially at the time when you didn't have over 1000s of managers and executives breathing down your back who are also looking to take each other down/ outdo each other when making a game. The result is a very bland, boring, tasteless "product" that has you looking back at these games and wondering "what the hell happened?"
Games are just games, a fun way to pass the time, bond with friends or family, build relationships.
@@sayitjamon6237 What kind of porn are you watching that has music like this ?
Developers: we just need some music for our sound test screen, nothing too crazy ok?
dreamcast ost composers:
One drum set, a couple bass guitars, and some folk from the Sefton Park Basement project wanting to create a British club music genre. What could be more simple than that?
Big up, Roni Size.
@@bobroberts2581 🤓🖐
Decomposed cheese. Ok
@@bobroberts2581🤓🤓🤓
This is the stuff that directly caused my first "chills" experience as a kid. These songs are the reason why we left our consoles running while not playing.
I always left Ape Escape running on the ps1 😎
i remember games would have "sound tests" or all the music in the game on one page u could just vibe out. was before mp3
@@Peacewalker92 What an amazing soundtrack, good call there man.
I use to fire up my ps2 just to listen to Midnight club 2 ost.
The PlayStation 2 game n2o has a mini album of The Crystal Method, it's a few of their best tracks and you can actually play it in a CD player.

Round of applause for this guy
Rollcage is how I found omni trio and ltj bukem. 1080 was a real banger of dnb and jungle. This is a serious flashback to my youth. Totally awesome.
Thank you!
all of this music just epitomizes that era so well, the futurism of 1999 was so exciting, technology was advancing so rapidly and our imaginations were just running wild in awe of the possibilities
Somehow, things seemed more advanced despite the fact they were relatively primitive by today's standards. Was it merely the rose tinted goggles of the 90's idealistic outlook on the future to come? A future that did not materialize the way the conceptual artists dreamed. Or was there something more? A missing piece to the puzzle.
@@EskimoCanadian44 It was the pace we were moving at, I think. The future is actually here, and it's really not as cool as we thought it would be by now. Still pretty sick though, but the music isn't as LITT as this.
@@EskimoCanadian44 but we ended up labeling everything racist and giving power to outcast people that need therapy,not attention
@@jurgenkarambit2084 preach
@@EskimoCanadian44 I read your comment by listening to this and you seemed so cool
Jungle/DnB still sounds futuristic even though my brain is recognising these sounds as being really old. Maybe because, as others have put it, it sounds like the music of a future that we didn't get? Not to get overly deep but when the optimistic future that Jungle/DnB sounded like didn't happen, it still ends up being the music of a hypothetical future ahead of us.
🍑💨
@@thelamp779 😗💨
I also think some trance music had that "future we never got" sound and it just so happened to get very popular around the same era this kind of stuff was around.
I feel like this music gave way to the lofi house music mixes we see today.
Perhaps it was music of the future we were living in at the time?
Fun fact: this genre got extremely popular during the PS1 and Dreamcast era because it was impossible to make on the sound chips of older 16-bit systems. With the ability to create full audio files, composers saw it as an opportunity to show off the extreme end of what these systems were capable of.
@Vice'sDelusion all the games featured in this! Jet Set, Gran Turismo, etc.
This genre was already popular at the time because of the rave scene. That's why it got into video games
@@atetraxx I would argue it's both! Jungle was the perfect way to flex the muscle of the new sound chips while also drawing in a niche-yet-booming audience
@@Brando2301 좋은 접근입니다. 80-90 era 게임음악이 YAMAHA CHIPSET SOUND를 많이 쓴것처럼 그런 부분이 분명히 존재합니다
An interesting thought. In a similar vein, I've long thought that game music from the 8 and 16 bit eras was so damn epic and catchy, was because the composers were so limited, so they really had to work their asses off and made something special
The world post-2001 is a world we didn't think would be prior to 2001.
"90's Jungle mixes in my youtube rec bar" quickly becoming my favourite type of music tbh

facts
SImultaneously futuristic, 'aglessly' ethereal AND dated.
Nostalgia aside, but the y2k era was a time of general optimism, the cold war was over, global trade of goods, services and ideas was booming, no more geopolitical fronts, an explosion of creativity, we were living the next technological revolution, literally everyone - from artists, environmentalists, to businessmen - had hopes that the new millennium will treasure opportunities for all. Then 9/11 happened, and the rest is history.
citizen's united WOOOOO
9/11 was an inside job. Same lies that brought us WMDs and continuos wars.

@@CerealKiller YOU.
@@CerealKiller Shoutout to the recession for keeping things exciting
Man.... I so miss this era, everything from music, games, hobbies, toys, shopping, limited internet, magazines, shows/movies. All this before internet and cell phones blew up for the public. I so miss those times.
simpler times for sure
soon youll miss these times! it only gets worse from here. in 2035 youll be saying the exact same thing about the early 2020's
Fun fact for the section of Foregone Destruction at 29:23 - the uncanny '3-dimensional' sound of the drums is created by taking a mono drum sample, splitting it into identical left and right channels, and then phase-inverting one of those 2 channels. You can always check if this effect was used by listening with Mono audio on your device. The sample will basically disappear since the left and right channel neutralize each other.
so that's why it always sounded different through a phone speaker! what an interesting idea, very slick
That's really cool. I've always wondered why it sounded crispy-like.
100% right. it sounds amazing
amazing comment
Wow that is a fun fact
It's weird how it sounds like both the past and the future
I'm so glad this genre is making a comeback, this stuff was the sound of my childhood. Sega games especially had some really good Jungle/DnB music.
It wasn't a future we never got. It was a future many of us were too young to appreciate and understand.
90s jungle was more futuristic than the future itself
I listen to this and grab my old videogame magazines, reading them with this on is a time capsule
I used to buy OPSM (Official PlayStation Magazine) here in the UK.
Every issue came with a demo disk. There was even one for metal gear solid 1 which I played the fu*k out of.
It cost £5 so my Sunday morning paper round took care of that. In hindsight it was a miserable rate of pay but I didn’t care 😄
Crazy how much the games I played as a kid unknowingly influenced my taste in music
The music that today's future deserves.
Highly recommend "Killing Moon" (Akuma's Theme) and "Twilight" (Ibuki's Theme) from Street Fighter 3S, off the top of my head. Honestly, there's so much insane DnB in this era of gaming that it's a shame we don't see more of it anymore. "Foregone Destruction" was the track that made me realize I loved Jungle as a teenager.
I didn't know that those tracks fell under that genre. I always thought they were Acid jazz, and called it such for some time but if it is actually called DnB, then I know where to find more tracks that sound like the Street Fighter 3rd Strike Soundtrack. Do you have any recommendations for more places to find this vintage sound, or tracks that sound like Akuma's or Ibuki's themes?
@@j.r.765 try LTJ Bukem Demons theme, im pretty sure 3rd strike was inspired by LTJ.
omg and makoto's theme, I always think of 3rd strike having some of the best video game dnb music
Tekken 6 OST - Urban warzone
Gill's theme in 3rd strike is my personal fave
The way that this music meshes so well with some of the artistic direction in these games is just mind blowing. When you look at the artwork even in this video of the covers it all just makes sense to be accompanied by the music. They don’t make artistic games like this no more. Now it’s just who has the prettiest looking games and we’ll put OSTs with generic electronic pop or ambient nature-y stuff. When gaming had this beautiful cross section of techno, hip hop, jazz & undertones of rock it was amazing. It felt like the future. Only game that immediately comes to mind that still makes sure to have great art in terms of visually and music is Persona. ARTISTIC does NOT equate to looking PRETTY/VISUALLY STUNNING and I wish more game studios were still aware of this difference. Bring back the Future Grunge, this is the best way I could describe this nuance of games and art direction
Future Grunge... that notion reminds me of Titan A.E.
i know what you mean sometimes i go back to the final fantasy 4 ost just to escape into a magic world where i can fly freely
Imo Cyberpunk is literally one of my top favorite games rn because of all of the music it incorporates and with the right mods it plays almost perfect any time.
ape escape...
Jet Set Radio Future was so much fun and had all kinds of cool music!
Oh mate brilliant call! As a kid in Australia in the early 90s we didn't get many dnb cds imported in the shops. The world before fast internet lol. so often i would find this beaut music in games... before i even knew there was music called jungle lol. Thanks for all your work mate! You pt joy in my days!
That's nuts man! Thanks for sharing the memories. Enjoy mate
Hahaha - I would hear a song in a film and if it wasn't labelled (some skate/FMX/surf videos had track labels appear) the best I could try was to hum it to people who I thought might know.
@@a_changedworld oh yeah tried that too
Same here man, but also with techno, trance, ambient
I remember drumming the amen break on my chest for years, trying to find out what it was, asking everyone...no one knew!!! Lmao
Foregone Destruction, i'd loop that for hours when I was a kid. Good times.
Ikr? Probably my favorite DnB song of all time
Otherworldly vibe 👽
used to listen to this whole mix a lot back in early 8th grade in 2022 now i came back for nostalgia
Sounds of optimism and the future perfect for moments when you need to think and chill out.
Music of Dreamscapes.
The Unreal Tournament tracks are so good man
Really, the entire soundtrack to Ace Combat 3 is a goldmine of great DnB electronica.
Opens with Jet Set Radio..you know it's going to be a good eclectic mix
How is this eclectic, it's all jungle
@@miamivicemastermixer shut up
eclectic? bitch this is a jungle dnb mix

The perfect 90's/00's nostalgia fuel.
Holy crap, this is exactly the sound that I'm trying to learn about/emulate.
Thank you so much for posting this!
One of the purest forms of joy there is! Lush sounding synth and string chords just transposed up and down to some chopped up breaks. The good ol tracker sound
Righton, Make something dope for us

Absolute chefs kiss selection
It was as though we lived for a moment in a very bright, breezy kind of future where there was a lot of excitement and optimism about technology and this internet thing that was really starting to gain momentum and where games where heading, but then it kind of just lost the vibe and that fresh, elevated future aesthetic has never really happened again
Music will never be like this ever again in a modern “AAA” game. Gotta look for indie ones like BallisticNG
When you think back to those times most games and games developers where basically indie.. tho they had companies and titles bad then games where more looked down on and typically more outcast types so ideas where closer to heart and made for itself now a days its name brands, corporations and how much money can be squeezed from a title. But the indie scene is ganna really blow up here soo .
There's plenty of great dnb being made to this day. Check the latest Forza album. May not the oldskl intelligent dnb of this era but it's still awesome:)
@@roxasparks true we used to have an entire field of mid-size developers that would get budgets to make all these “weird” games. Just creative ideas. Before the suits came and scientifically engineered absurd ways to squeeze every possible cent from the consumers & inflate development budgets to absurd levels.
@@timgimmy609 💯
added to wishlist (thnks! i didnt know about this game)
It was because of the Ape Escape soundtrack, and the promos that Cartoon Network would broadcast during their TOONAMI block in the late 90's/early 00's, that I came to love the Jungle/DnB genre of music.
hell yeah! those british/ and Jamaicans took dub , american hiphop, and funk drum kit; and made soem great shit!
I miss those days where I could only play video games when visiting a friend's house. Somehow made those moments more special
amazing, sounded so ethereal and futuristic at the time.
Those old days. The days when we were young.
Been spiraling into myself lately, finding connections to what I like now and what I did as a kid. This music has my soul as of now and I come to this and see Jet Set Radio at first. The game I fell in love with as a child and it makes sense why this music feels so close to home.
The Sonic and Bomberman franchises need to revisit this style of music. It fits both of them so incredibly well, Sonic for his speed, and Bomberman for the franchise’s intergalactic theming
i was not expecting jet set radio right at the beginning oh my- i love it
Listening to this, I get a sense of warmth and sadness. The fact we lived through an amazing period in time and this era was arguably the peak of where everyone was care free and had next to no troubles, but also how we can never go back to do it all again and we are day by day getting further away from it. The nineties had it all, what I’d do to go back and appreciate it properly.
Maybe in USA, my country in 90s was everything but amazing
@@dzimikes It's good to have comments like this. The 90s were amazing in the West (peak of rave/DnB music, economic boom, global travel) but it's sobering to know it wasn't like that for everyone.
Warmth of familiarity.
Sadness cos I absolutely hated my childhood and have very little happy memories from those days.
Still - I’ve gone and done ok with my life and can revisit music like this anytime I like 😃
@@CursedWheelieBin shit man, I hope you ok
this reminds me of a time when we were having fun with technology, not being a product of it
I quit gaming in like 2012 so this brings me back to playing PS2/PS1 with the boys
I could listen to jungle techno all day. it's like a musical contradiction: busy, yet chill.
Back in 2020 I went down a rabbit hole looking for these kinda tunes. I could never seem to find anyone/anywhere that was into 90s/early 00s video game Jungle tracks. I’m glad this playlist exists man!
Some “reference dumps” the games Rez, Amplitude, Frequency from the PS1 era, and every Forza Horizons game (thank to their partnership with Hospital records radio.
You know we are living in the bad ending, when music like this didn't become mainstream.
What a mood ! Really nice work, it's so nice to see the Y2K pictures associated with the music, a beautiful time-capsule of my childhood
Those adverts are timeless. Cheers!
When the muscle heads would come to pump iron at the alternative gym. I love the 1990's!
I swore when I was 8-10 in the 90s I would think of the time I turned 25 and this music would instantly queue when I walked out of the front door.
i like hw the Wii U modernize the ambient jungle from 00s
I remember going to a restaurant where they played music like this. I'll never forget when an older lady asked if they could stop the cd from skipping. She wasn't wrong.
Loving the comments section on this one. 2023 has a lot of us yearning for the optimism of Y2K again.
I was playing this in the background, and as soon as that Ace Combat 3 song started playing I got chills down my spine and a serious flashback.
I feel nostalgic for the innocence of a simpler time listening to these classics.
reminds me of all the excitement that existed in the gaming industry. Tv shows, magazines and events made me so optimistic about the future of gaming. Little did I know, we were already at the top of the mountain. Nice mix!
I really search "00 ́s ost video games speed drums".
It's exactly what i was looking for
Right back to the dreamcast days!
This mix is on a different level when you light up a joint!! I forgot about a lot of these tracks
👽
Don’t forget us
Rage Racer has one of the best soundtracks from that era, so many bangers. Namco really had the cutting edge when it came to Electronic/club music of the times
This is the next step from Lofi Hip Hop and Vaporware stuff on the net, what a avangare remix and sound, i love it
I'll be honest, I'm not a big fan of LFHH nor Vaporwave.
This is my soothing study theme.
@@ikagura Both genres are just as pivotal as Jungle/DnB. Its all about preference. BUT I will say, if I have the option of which one to play on a daily bases, it would definitely be Jungle/DnB.
@@ikagura I agree with you. Low Fi is just slow hip hop without lyrics. Some Vaporwave is good though (e.g. Bart Graft).
@@ikagura its funny jungle was made by and for ppl working like overnight shifts driving long routes on the highway system and stuff--- so it really excels at the 24/7 immersive study/grind support type of music thats spreading like drugs around the net. i just hope it doesnt get boring and commodified but i guess that already happened more than once to dnb. its all steeped in shitty UK jobs and all the citydwellers living for the weekend and making this shit in their bedrooms in the middle of the night to sell to middle classes also grinding their soulsucking jobs
lo fi sucks, every song is the same bullshit
Oh man how i miss 90's drum and bass. Early 2000 music in general too. But drum and bass just vanished so completely.
dnb and uk garage and other 90s and 00s genres are making a comeback, just see pinkpantheress
Also check out breakcore, it’s a more recent offshoot that’s very chaotic and hyper
Still lots of drum and bass around, check my playlists.
@@weedjuul6519 I love Sewerslvt's stuff
It's still popular in the UK and to the underground scene in Japan.
That's exactly the feel of twenty years ago. I miss this
I didn't get to live this era but the memory of playing old ps1/ps2 demo disks well over a decade ago is so clear in my mind.
Put this mix in a museum.

ребята, а у кого на примете есть целые исполнители/альбомы на рекомендацию в подобном духе? аригато заранее.
These games made the world feel larger and magical in the 90's.
bro 1080 was so awesome. I remember i downloaded the N64 emulator on on every PC in my computer class when i was a junior in high school in 2011, basically 1080 became the most popular game amongst my friends because everyone already knew mario kart, pokemon stadium, mario party and 007. Pretty much it became a hipster game and still remember everyone racing each other it was very epic also Perfect Dark became very popular.
i just couldn't believe so many people my age never played any of these great N64 for games lmao.
Rage Racer - Silver Stream.....This one takes my soul every time.
This is the future. This sound is actually coming back since this what most of us grew up on. I expect these next 10 years to be very interesting
At first I was bitter for thinking dnb should be kept underground, but now, I think it should be heard and payed attention to by everyone. The sound of the future.
dnb underground lmao are you american?
Funny how many of these were turned into beats from songs I like
Man, that Jet Set Radio loading bump ALWAYS gives me ASMR vibes, and makes the hair on my arms and neck stand on end 😩 I load it up every once in a while just to get the feeling again
I needed this in my life exactly at this moment

Unreal Tournament "Facing Worlds" level sound track was my personal fave. Capture the Flag. Around the year 2000.
Glad this type of music is still huge in the UK
the uk has 1/10th the population of the us. its equally prevalent here but gets diluted
@@sb-di3of this is a UK genre that has been huge both commercially and underground since it’s inception around 30 years ago, it’s nowhere near as prevalent in the US

@@arisulidell1326 London, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh.
The best type of music of all time!
Looks like we now have the video game equivalent of Peshay Studio Set '96.
In retrospect, this is ahead of it's time. You got Sewerslvt using jungly fast dance beats. This music was originally just generic background stuff. For me and a lot of people at least, this music went in one ear and out the other often. Now it slaps
Cruising on the freeway at midnight. 🔥
Espectacular Intro con Jet Set Radio, el Drum N Bass Jungle es de lo mejor 😅❤
90s dnb hits different but in video games its better
Glad to see crowded street from giant attack is the most replayed part. Represent
Training in a fighting game with this in the background makes everything hit different
It's been four days since found this video and I always find myself coming back to it once or twice a day. And you know what? I don't regret it.
Great music to listen to make a slow work day bearable
that second track was mental
Pffff... You hear some of these and it feels like finding lost memories you didn't even knew you lost
Finally someone puts this together as a compilation for years I’ve had to spend hours trying to download individual songs.
This is absolutely dope. Reminds me soooooo much of my early days making games.
this concept that this music was supposed to sound almost futuristic, but yet it looks so late 90s/y2k at the same time, its crazy. They believed this was the future, but it was just the same time they were thinking that.
I will always have a soft spot for this kinda music. It reminds me when times were more simple
