This is the perfect drum and bass tutorial video: you acknowledged hardware, history, produced great work and did it in a way that was easy to follow/understand.
I wish there was a way of knowing when your in "the good old days" As good as it was at the time (we were all young, and the world was a very different place) I would guess that very few people knew that they were living through a classic era at the time. Maybe I am wrong and just didn't pick up on it myself. I still think that because vinyl was king at the time, a lot of time and money went into putting a tune out, and so that acted as a type of quality control maybe? Maybe I am just waffling nonsense..either way it was a special time and I look back on it with fond memories.
@@Estuera or more jungle (if I can interject...), and some old skool hardcore Tekno and jungle tekno, and Ragga jungle, then Some piano house ♥️ I'm asking a lot, I'm sorry 🤗🤗🤗🤗
ah yes the sound of growing up on the ps1 and n64 soundtracks... nostalgic and honestly quite often ahead of its time, never gets old and works just about everywhere
it is crazy and insane, how this kind of music manages to give me nostalgia. it gives me nostalgia, of a time, thati never had, and never experianced. when that music was popular, i did not exist, and i was not born for another like 5 years after that. but i still feel like i remember it. i remember the time. the time where i wasnt even alive....
I mean, I would say Jungle and Drum & Bass were still popular by the late 90s and spilling into the early 2000s. In fact, like Jonas said, it was used in popular media such as video games, movies, and even commercials. For me personally, I was born in 1998 and was encountering these 90s genres mostly in games found in the 5th and 6th generation game consoles.
@@FoxerTails In London it's still pretty popular. You can even hear it occasionally as background-music in supermarkets. And I'm not talking about small shops, I mean Tesco's and Sainsburys big markets.
@@digitalduch1111 you're talking absolute nonsense. No supermarket is playing jungle bangers buddy... you've probably just heard a break sampled in a pop song.
5:26 wow I've heard so many happy hardcore tracks from the late 90's using that sample. Thanks for showing how you made it. Final track is amazing oh the nostalgia!!!
Not sure where you're from, but it well and truly alive in the UK. Constant releases, vinyl and digital. Plenty of labels from all round the world with bit too.
For me - personally - still the absolute pinnacle....the greatest Mastering of Studiogear...mid to end 90ies Drum & Bass like Goldie's "Timless" LP , Metalheadz Platinum Breakz 1 & 2 or the Atmospheric Drum & Bass Compilations 1 thru 5 ( Millennium Records....especially Volumne 1 which was mixed by DJ Wildchild ).... It had everything...Breakbeats, Sub Bass or Melodic basslines, Pads, Leads, Strings, Jazz elements, Vocals...it even can work in a live environment like Goldie, 4 Hero, Phoneheads, Roni Size, EZ Rollers and others perfectly show....just look at Gioldie & The Heritage Orchestra, 4 Hero at the Mercury Music Prize, Phoneheads Live in Tonhalle etc So....Drum & Bass is an incredible style for anyone that feels it...just alone the fun sampling, cutting, twisting your breakbeat samples...then getting the frequencies right, add filter sweeps...or timestretching or phaser...whatever sounds tight...etc...its a dream for anyone that wants to produce - what I think - to be the greatest Style of Electronic Music. It takes a real Studio Wizard to produce a "classic" where other producers just shake their heads and ask "How did he do that!!!" Drum & Bass always has had this "Studio sport" thing to it...who can produce the next futuristic banger....
This is the greatest time in history to be into music technology!! The fact we have wonderful and talented folks like this that learn all these invaluable things about this history of rave music, distills them down FOR FREE for those of us that are interested. Just WOW!
the jungle room always draws you away from the main room, then you just melt into the lights, lasers, smoke and sounds while bass cabinets vibrate your every atom
Perfect - to complete the sound it’d have to be broadcast over a dodgy FM transmitter and played back in my Ford Fiesta as I drive along the South Circular.
I am expecting the flare before the last but it keeps andling on the last "snarey" part, yet it feels like it should be rolling on the second last not the last. This does have a bit of that King of Jungles Mixtape that was first exposure to Jungle. This isn't halcyon jungle though this is more of an early vibe ex. 1994 or 1995 vs the more matured sounds in 1998 that tended to be more developed and anthemic etc..
I've tried searching previously how to create Drum and Bass/Jungle tracks but mostly what was available were forum posts and short videos on how to make specific instruments. This is the first one I've seen which goes in depth with great explanation!
When I listen to this kind of music I get a feeling that is kind of hard to explain but you managed to put the very own aesthetic of this music both in words and video editing perfectly. Honestly, I genuinely appreciate your talent and the way you explain what this genre and other types of electronic music are all about. Plus, the finished track is an absolute banger. Keep it up!!
super comprehensive. love how you show how they might of made it back in the day, even keeping these in mind while producing just helps you learn new things great video
Flashback to the hours and hours I spent cutting up breaks in Recycle and then loading them onto my sampler using the "ak.sys" utility, that was basically my 00s. Loved that stuff.
Jungle and DnB is part of my childhood from playing the early Need For Speed games even though I'm more of a Electro Funk/Freestyle and Trance type of guy.
4:45 Thank you! I love making breakbeat old Skool but wondered why I still wasn't getting that sound I was looking for! Quality mate, thank you, subscriber ♥️
Man, I remember hours spent with my first laptop and a secondhand copy of Reason 2 trying to do the exact thing you're doing in this series. I knew nothing about music production.
How to go to bed more educated at night? By watching a video of Estuera necessarily! It is always a pleasure to follow you Jonas, thank you for sharing. :)
This is the sauce!! Love it, killer track. Akai sine wave bass = god mode. Lot of renewed interest in using old samplers to make jungle/dnb these days - fun process
by the way: I totally miss the "Vibes" from the Hardcore Sample...haha. It is so deep rooted in my mind, that I finish the sample with singing it in my mind. "Hardcore Vibes" is a great Happy Hardcore Track from Dune.
Nailed it. Brilliant explainer video. Valley Of The Shadows was the seminal track, the moment hardcore went dark and turned into jungle. I still remember that bass line dropping and blowing the roof off the Paradise Club.
good to be back bro,it was a pleasure to watch this episode! in mid 90 i always listened jungle/dnb and i tried to reproduce the sound .in lack of know how i coudn't come close to the sound. the gear i used was casio fz1,yamaha dx11 ,alesis mmt8 sequencer,digitech 128 effects in autumn of '97 when one of my relatives started a recording studio it was pure heaven.the king of the studio was an akai s1100 also he had a w30 ,sh 101, juno 106 ,an1x .akai s1100 has all you need for jungle 2 types of timestrech, dozens of effects,8 individual outputs and so on! next month it comes with an amiga500 with octamed for an another level of sequencing. good old days!
Here in the UK DnB was quite underground, until Roni Size - Brown Paper Bag was heard booming out of every pub, shop, and taxi. Great tune but killed that underground scene here.
You have my vote for best channel on TH-cam. Once again strike the perfect balance of history lessons and production techniques. ❤️ I'd love to challenge you to make something in the style of Alien Factory - Get The Future Started, mid 90s hard trance.
@@Estuera This challenge would also provide you an excuse for acquiring the mighty Kurzweil K2000, which was apparently their weapon of choice. You're welcome 😉
@@rich69694 Alien Factory...lol....thats oldskool. Do you like Raver's Nature?

I never knew about the S950 test tone and now it explains *that* bass sound I've always loved, and all this time I thought it was a sampled 808. Great video!!
I remember this underwater theme videogame with dolphins on PS1 with an on board crappy DAW/Looper/musicmaker vibes, mostly jungle breakbeat and autotuned sinewave solo when smashing buttons.. kept me busy for hours.. Can’t remember the name but it was really dope for the time being
@@Estuera I found it : ) th-cam.com/video/uwGGKXEByEU/w-d-xo.html It was called Fluid from 1996, the attached video starts with great music too, but I specifically remember this atmospheric track at the 10min mark; the sinewave could be “improvised” by the cursorarrows on the left if I remember well : )
As usual, a very didactic video, which let us to understand how was made the music we loved when we were "younger than now" ( I don't want to admit I am getting old now). Through your channel, 80's and 90's dance musics are still alive, thank you, and congratulation for your hard work ;)
What a trip! The start of the original breakbeat genre then into jungle and dark jungle was a very formative part of my life! Icons like Rat-E and Grooverider were pioneering the sounds and it was so much more than where things began in early house/rave. Adelaide South Australia was a renowned location for Rave and always a destination for top DJ’s to play. I loved this time of my life and still have so many awesome and rare sets from amazing DJ and underground raves in my music stash. Well done for making an ol raver reminisce!
i think its super cool how you're showing all the ways to do the basic samples, and already I'm hearing so many of the tracks I grew up with. I also think its kind of interesting that you're showing the "real" ways to do all this when I've only seen how to do it with trackers on the Amiga to get basically the same sounds I've seen a little bit of how its done, watching Bizzy B do his amiga+akai videos, but still. I love this.
I started on Electronic music in early 1990s and enjoy DnB. I'm not a producer, nor have I studied to be one.. but this walkthrough was inspiring.. and the track is 🔥🔥🔥
Getting strong Photek and Squarepusher vibes from this. Sounded excellent. I noticed Squarepusher also sampled his own drums (real drums) to make some of his iconic tracks. You're an amazing artist. Thanks for whipping this up and explaining this work.
That track turned out awesome! Good insight on how the drum sequences were built too. As a follow up to this I’d love to see you create a Speed Garage track. I think that would be a fun one to watch 🙌🏻
Someone was listening to a lot of Omni Trio and Moving Shadow stuff in the 1990s. ;) I find it interesting that there's now a whole subgenre of music that recreates this sound but are modern productions. There's even UK Hardcore labels that are releasing new old school 1990s sounding stuff... The only thing that differs is the sonics and production is better, but it still sounds like it could have been done in the early 1990s.
This track is dope af, props to you. Youre more of a dope producer that happens to make music production tutorials than the other way around (as is usually the case on here, myself included). Keep making these PLEASE! ROCK ON!!!
I still can't believe there's a Dude under 60 that knows how to pronounce 'genre' correctly! A while back I was browsing the bookstore and two cute babes walked by chatting about books and stuff. Then one Einstein mentioned to the other Einstein she wanted to check out a new 'Jenner' - as in Bruce Jenner, or whatever he's into this week. Had a hard time not snorting Pepsi out my nose! I will give them props for actually being in a bookstore instead of the "Brain-Dead Shop For Crappy, Overpriced Clothing" store. I'm so new to this I don't even know the right questions to ask. Reading the comments helps me understand this channel is real, and the info is on it. What/where else should a noob be looking for info? Thanx!
Welcome 😁 What/where else you should look for info depends on what you are looking for specifically. Music production in general? Drum and bass specific?
I lived in London and the radio waves were filled with pirate Jungle radio stations - it was fantastic!
Wish I had a time machine.
Damn the endresult sounds like directly from the 90s. So well done!
Thanks!
This is the perfect drum and bass tutorial video: you acknowledged hardware, history, produced great work and did it in a way that was easy to follow/understand.
I'm 18 and I wish I could go back in time to the 90s to witness this jungle culture. Loved the tutorial and the final result is fire! 🔥
You missed out lol! Grand Turismo was like my founding father of Jungle lol

5:26 wow I've heard so many happy hardcore tracks from the late 90's using that sample. Thanks for showing how you made it. Final track is amazing oh the nostalgia!!!
Thanks!
This sample reminds me of the powerpuff girls lol. Listen to the show's intro. At the time I was too young to recognize drum&bass
It's the most famous sample in the world. The amen break.
@@finitesound I watched a vid about that after reading your comment. Pretty cool how its everywhere
@@diegoveloso3rd Powerpuff Girls intro had the Funky Drummer sample AFAIR
Jungle is still the best genre. I can't believe not many people still create in this aesthetic. It's so sick.
there's plenty of people on sc that are keeping this genre alive
like me label da demolition squad baby!
Jungle has been getting huuuuuge with Gen Z kids, just has different aesthetics now
Not sure where you're from, but it well and truly alive in the UK. Constant releases, vinyl and digital. Plenty of labels from all round the world with bit too.
@@JohnWayniac thing is this tune stranjah made here is more drum n bass and not many people at all make this style :(
We used to call this Breakbeat (before Jungle) back in the day. The drums here have a nice Alec Empire vibe.
Breakbeat isn't the same thing.
We used to call it Hardcore before jungle
wow i remember alec empire he made nasty jungle/breakcore

Imagine what comes next...
the jungle room always draws you away from the main room, then you just melt into the lights, lasers, smoke and sounds while bass cabinets vibrate your every atom
What makes it so much easier to add variation this way is that you can sample any break and play it through the midi keyboard.
Started listening to this on my iPhone, didn’t take long for me to realise I needed to fire up the hifi and subwoofer. 🔊
Need to feel that sub indeed
It’s jungle is there any other way?
My man
I used to listen to quite a bit of jungle back in the 90's, and it was so cool getting to see how it was produced.
16:30 To me this is such a mid 90s sound, like 94-96. Fucking love it!
this is extremely accurate to the real jungle sound bro
It's always a great joy to see someone who is the same age, from the same country, listened to the same music and has also made music for years.
Perfect - to complete the sound it’d have to be broadcast over a dodgy FM transmitter and played back in my Ford Fiesta as I drive along the South Circular.
14:02 That time stretching still gives me the shivers. It sounds so eerie still to the day! Love the track you created here!

My day gets much better with a new Estuera video! 👍👍
Sugestion for next videos: Hard House, UK Garage and Speed Garage.

The final song was so cool. The human evolution quote is from the X-Men movie (2000)
correct ✅
Not my kinda sound but i was a teenager in the 90s and this sounds very authentic to what I heared those days, good work
Here in the UK DnB was quite underground, until Roni Size - Brown Paper Bag was heard booming out of every pub, shop, and taxi. Great tune but killed that underground scene here.

1 Month later. Listened several times to the final track. Still partying hard on it 🙂

That track turned out awesome! Good insight on how the drum sequences were built too. As a follow up to this I’d love to see you create a Speed Garage track. I think that would be a fun one to watch 🙌🏻
Speed garage is on the list indeed
@@Estuera Woohoo 🙌🏻 I’m a little bit excited ngl!
Another great videotutorial! Thanx for this research!.. keeping up you perfekt work.. love all your videos. You are the best. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It took me a while to get around to watching this, but I was not disappointed! Great work
Not often do i watch an explanation video where i actually like their endresult. That was FIRE
Cool tune. Nice construction / deconstruction.
That do be pretty sick. I have to try and make jungle myself now.
So good! You always make it seem very easy, but really it isn't. I guess that comes with experience!
Thanks!
Someone was listening to a lot of Omni Trio and Moving Shadow stuff in the 1990s. ;)
I find it interesting that there's now a whole subgenre of music that recreates this sound but are modern productions. There's even UK Hardcore labels that are releasing new old school 1990s sounding stuff... The only thing that differs is the sonics and production is better, but it still sounds like it could have been done in the early 1990s.
This track is dope af, props to you. Youre more of a dope producer that happens to make music production tutorials than the other way around (as is usually the case on here, myself included). Keep making these PLEASE! ROCK ON!!!
Enjoyed watching this video, respect how they made jungle/dnb back then.
This is pure Gold. Would like to see a Techstep Episode with the famous NO U TURN Sound. Best.
Just stumbled across your channel. Super dope. This was an excellent video.
I still can't believe there's a Dude under 60 that knows how to pronounce 'genre' correctly! A while back I was browsing the bookstore and two cute babes walked by chatting about books and stuff. Then one Einstein mentioned to the other Einstein she wanted to check out a new 'Jenner' - as in Bruce Jenner, or whatever he's into this week. Had a hard time not snorting Pepsi out my nose! I will give them props for actually being in a bookstore instead of the "Brain-Dead Shop For Crappy, Overpriced Clothing" store.
I'm so new to this I don't even know the right questions to ask. Reading the comments helps me understand this channel is real, and the info is on it. What/where else should a noob be looking for info? Thanx!
Welcome 😁
What/where else you should look for info depends on what you are looking for specifically. Music production in general? Drum and bass specific?
I love how this channel is so educational. It's rare that you learn the history of this stuff
you're great, everything you make teaches me heaps, from history and cool techniques to sounds and samples i can try out -- thanks for everything!
