Some history: This was my track that Kevin (Dj Hype) supplied the breaks and vocal samples for as the original demo was an instrumental with a drum machine. All synth parts, programming and sequencing were performed by myself and the arrangements were done together. Engineered by Ralph P Ruppert at Kickin Records Studio in Ladbrooke Grove in the summer of 1990 and was promo'ed in August after shortly after "The Excorcist" if I remember correctly (Both reached Number 1 in the UK dance and independent galop charts) and we sold 35,000 units of each. We programmed and arranged both "The Excorcist" and "The Bee" two days apart on a basic 4 track bedroom studio setup at my late mum's house in Burnt Oak North London and we then recorded them with Ralph later in Ladbrooke Grove. When we made them, they didn't fit into any catagory at first and were influenced by Sub Bass, Techno / Acid House / Bleeps and EBM as well as Kevin's Hip Hop / Hip House / Breaks / Reggae and Dancehall influences. The labels came later as did "Tech House". At the time we were just making underground house / techno with some other influences chucked in.. Happy days when producers and artists were a lot more experiMENTAL and took risks to break some new ground every week!

YEAAAAAAAAH!!! This is the tune that dragged me kicking and screaming into the dance era! never looked back since! Thanks for uploading this legendary tune :D
Damn I must be old all you people trying to define it and label it. It's an absolute CHOON doesn't matter what genre it is, back in the day it was just choons, choons and more choons. Have it :)
My old pals big bro made this record in 1990 (early) i recall him playing the samples live while me and his bro was downstairs, infact i actually seen him last week april 2013 he does house music today as Pure Science tech house
while the drum n bass gives elements of jungle, this song i felt pre dated that, was a hit around late 1989 early1990 when techno & harcore was most popular at the time just before this type of music evolved into either rave &/or jungle and it's about time we had a revival of this techno/hardcore old skool rave come on it's been 3 decades yo!
Classic tune. First time I heard it I was out of my facking tree on a pink floyd. This kind of tune pre dated being compartmentalised as hardcore, d+b, happy hardcore, detroit, deep house and all the other shit that came with the commercialisation of this genre. Back in those days, no one gave a fuck. I don't ever remember anyone turning to me whilst tripping balls and saying, "you know I think this is more hardcore than jungle, I'm not a fan of hardcore. I think I shall go and sit down".
Early nineties hardcore had everything wicked break beats big analog bass vocals piano's I didn't start raving until 1996 and the music had split into drum and bass and happy hardcore which I thought was shite had some wicked nights at helter-skelter world dance etc and did rave my bollocks of but felt I should of been older so I could of started raving in 1989 to witness the proper vibes anyway peace to all the raving crew love ya
lol...I was just gonna leave a comment then saw I already left one 9 months ago......how had good music like this evolved into the shite of today????????????
2m54s the absolute banging part of the track. Shame there wasn't more of this and less of the breakbeat.. Anyone remember the Steve Austin six million dollar man.. What a clunker. Another track that came on and u were like all excited and then it just fell flat and was shite.. Lol.. I have so many beautiful memories of 90-93.
Definitively techno but everyone's arguing over what sub-genre. It's funny to try and categorize the sound from 1990; like trying to label an early man who would have black, white, and asian descendants!
nope...sorry....but i will keep a look out....i use to love there cover...done by junior tomlin ( i think)...he use to do alot of flyers aswell.....great artist ;)
Definitely Hardcore only because no-ne called it jungle at the time. Its my favourite tune of all time. The pirates the raves and the MC's all called it Hardcore for many years. I find that Hardcore/Jungle is like space/time or electro/magnetism. They're not mutually exclusive.
I was on dance scene at this time, the scientist I've saw 3 times, dundee and London. Can't think of the track name now, it's not the exorcist? That's annoying me😅
lolz @ all the comments all i remember from back in the day when i first heard this was everyone was lisening to house & most of us wernt that geeky to care otherwise :P
+bombaymatt I presume you've resorted to childish insults because you can't answer the question? I was actually giving you an opportunity to answer an inquiry; whereas now, it looks to me and others that you made a statement you have zero understanding of; rendering it as worthless as your above reply. So, once again, what did your original comment even mean?
@richwater26 Well said, went to a world dance in 1992, the scene was changing for the worse, Shades of rythym live was good there, but the junglist ting was all over the place, moody as fuck man....never went to a rave again....THE END

The bee remixes were a defining point of view how future jungle/ dnb should be made!!
Timeless perfection
Damn I must be old all you people trying to define it and label it. It's an absolute CHOON doesn't matter what genre it is, back in the day it was just choons, choons and more choons.

You want to sell it?
30 years later, still have my copy as well. Bought it in an obscure record shop in Texas.
1of the first tracks that broke me in :)
Apocalypse Now, Swing, Yikes and One Nation at the Rivermead, Reading was where it all began for me. This track went off!
Love it 👍😀
Classic 1990's Warehouse Techno, 1990 imo was the best year for break beat and early techno acid styleee!
Early Jungle💗It🎵🎶🎵🐝What a Tune🔥🔥🔥
still got a sting to it in 2017 😊
Very good track.
Had this on tape in about 91/92 taped off sunset radio... always thought it was a belting tune but never knew who it was by... great memories
1st time I heard it was on kiss 100 when it was pirate radio.
Still got this on vinyl. The tune takes me back to good times
My old pals big bro made this record in 1990 (early) i recall him playing the samples live while me and his bro was downstairs, infact i actually seen him last week april 2013 he does house music today as Pure Science tech house
Have you any links to his work ?
while the drum n bass gives elements of jungle, this song i felt pre dated that, was a hit around late 1989 early1990 when techno & harcore was most popular at the time just before this type of music evolved into either rave &/or jungle and it's about time we had a revival of this techno/hardcore old skool rave come on it's been 3 decades yo!
Colin Dale outer limits on Kiss. This is where it all started for me.

This kind of tune pre dated being compartmentalised as hardcore, d+b, happy hardcore, detroit, deep house and all the other shit that came with the commercialisation of this genre.

A savage beat
That bass!
Early nineties hardcore had everything wicked break beats big analog bass vocals piano's I didn't start raving until 1996 and the music had split into drum and bass and happy hardcore which I thought was shite had some wicked nights at helter-skelter world dance etc and did rave my bollocks of but felt I should of been older so I could of started raving in 1989 to witness the proper vibes anyway peace to all the raving crew love ya
Gives me a buzz.
Thank you for downloading this - it is ace.... xxx
I raved at nights when it was called 'old skool'
Luckily drum n bass continued to flourish n i love techno but still feel missef out on my true era
Breakbeat London sound of 90-91, Up North Bass and Bleeps and these two combined with European Techno and house created the hardcore sound in 91-92
A sample from dope on plastic in there
Great tune this
Classic, got this on 12inch from back in the day
lol...I was just gonna leave a comment then saw I already left one 9 months ago......how had good music like this evolved into the shite of today????????????
bombaymatt some of it isn't shite... you just gave up looking for the good stuff
28 years and i'm still heavily into the underground scene. Definitely not shite today if you know where to look. Techno is massive now.
The Scientist (Phivos "Phil" Sebastiane) and dj hype did this, date of release its on 1990, jungle its later.
2m54s the absolute banging part of the track. Shame there wasn't more of this and less of the breakbeat.. Anyone remember the Steve Austin six million dollar man.. What a clunker. Another track that came on and u were like all excited and then it just fell flat and was shite.. Lol.. I have so many beautiful memories of 90-93.
Cross over.... Darkcore Bruv. London added Ragga... Then Jungle began. Lets be honest though...DJ Hype one sick mother! Jump Up for life!
Another classic of classics! Choon!
File it under fucking awesome!
Such a mad tune!
I'll have to go into the loft again to have a look, but if it's on the vinyl 12" I will have...
Classic track to Hadrcore Old Skool 1990.
BuZZinG
This is a top top tune ,for me this is up there with -Landlord, I like it - these 2 tunes are definitely in my top 3 😜✊
here endeth the lesson!
buzzin, get it? yeah.
Definitively techno but everyone's arguing over what sub-genre. It's funny to try and categorize the sound from 1990; like trying to label an early man who would have black, white, and asian descendants!
Electric breakbeat/ synthwave Techno is more hard repetitive beats.
That is old skool uK hardcore
Bleepy/Jungle Techno ?
It’s oldskool hardcore in the uk. Are you from the states or something?
This style was huge in the early 90's underground in Houston, Texas. Thank the United Kingdom for this.
THose recs back in the day - you could 33 or 45 em with enough pitch control!
Loved this tune played it to death back in the day
sick bruv xxx
Breakbeat.. Under our global umbrella. Of house..
Gracias!!!
We called it hardcore, specifically bleeps n bass.

Definitely Hardcore only because no-ne called it jungle at the time. Its my favourite tune of all time. The pirates the raves and the MC's all called it Hardcore for many years. I find that Hardcore/Jungle is like space/time or electro/magnetism. They're not mutually exclusive.
@b0bal0b Lol!!! I second that mate, What a tune
I was on dance scene at this time, the scientist I've saw 3 times, dundee and London. Can't think of the track name now, it's not the exorcist? That's annoying me😅

+bombaymatt What exactly do those two sentences actually mean?
+scherben Shut up you tart
+bombaymatt I presume you've resorted to childish insults because you can't answer the question? I was actually giving you an opportunity to answer an inquiry; whereas now, it looks to me and others that you made a statement you have zero understanding of; rendering it as worthless as your above reply.
So, once again, what did your original comment even mean?
Still got my original copy
Hard core or break beat.......!!! In the early years in UK and US.....!!!!!!!!!
Army jackets from Welch hill Street
Rofl, alright for dat
P. S. This 'ardkore
Eveybody is confused by what subgunura this is,it sounds very late 80s UK rave scene to me,so i will just call it late 80s/early 90s rave tune
@richwater26 Well said, went to a world dance in 1992, the scene was changing for the worse, Shades of rythym live was good there, but the junglist ting was all over the place, moody as fuck man....never went to a rave again....THE END
