dnb is perfect for when you've got shit to do though. I'd rather listen to it than have a coffee. Do things faster.

I've just made it to the end of that amazingly well laid out post VT (have listened to every track in this thread so far) and just wanted to say:
a. Thanks for that, and: b. Absolutely spot on with that quote above, especially point c.

Alright, so to say thanks to all that chipped in, I'll share my own little timeline of personal favourites.
This is the first tune in the growing scene I can remember as a boy:
One of my all time favourite Jungle tunes:
Drum & Bass started to break off into it's own branch:
Jungle kept going strong for a while though! (man I miss those rolling basslines dancing in front of speakers that made my whole body vibrate:
As Jungle drifted, D&B started getting that 'darkside' feel to it:
(I drifted away from the genre for a few years around here, as after being a pure drum & bass head for so many years, I finally discovered ALL the other genres out there in the world; hip-hop, reggae, rock, etc, etc)
But since I've come back, the uplifting stuff is flowing so beautifully (that Netsky track is a classic example of the 'new' sound I'm loving these days VT, as are these):
Specially when they manage to get that old school sound in there:
c) pills mate.

Just to say I love everything in the above list, and Ratpack's searching for my rizla is a proper fucking choon. Utter classic.

If you got anything else to add to another list I'd appreciate it man - found a couple of bangers in the selection you shared already.

Often overlooked for the unfortunate circumstance of not being "propa English jungle", Panacea did a song called King of the Jungle. It's quite nice, not many songs will have a happy hardcore interlude in the middle.

Fucking sick tunes. Man, there was something to be said for when all you had was an amiga tracker with samples on floppy disk.
The nice thing about going through the old jungle is I uncover tunes that I missed the first time around. It's like finding there's an episode of star trek TNG you overlooked first time around.

I ended up coming across a bunch of 'Bachelors Of Science' tracks today on my iPod. I gotta give em a re-listen and filter out the best ones to post here but they were fucking sick.

Just gonna copy and paste this from facey:
Quote:
I said: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index…
So, music being a bit of an interest in me over the years, it struck me I didn't realise what the difference is between rhythm and melody. According to Wikipedia: "Jungle's rhythm-as-melody style overturned the dominance of melody-over-rhythm in the hierarchy of Western music, adding to its radical nature." And I thought, what's that even mean? If you can't be arsed to read the answer, you dance to the rhythm, the melody is the tune itself. Making every jungle tune a different dance.
and the quote for those that don't wanna click through:
Quote:
Yahoo: Hi sbskeeper,
Rhythm is best decribed by the kind of song it is.
You ever dance a cha cha cha, or a mambo, or samba or see people that do?
Each one of those dances have a different rhythm. and if you are a dancer you know exactly how to dance to that "rhythm" or style.
(FOR INSTANCE, ON THE TV SHOW "DANCING WITH THE STARS", THE DANCES, JIVE, SAMBA, MAMBO, CHA CHA, TANGO, ALL HAVE DIFFERENT RHYTHM AND THE DANCERS MUST DANCE A CERTAN STYLE WHEN TO DANCING TO EACH DIFFERENT RHYTHM).
If you hear ragee music, or hip hop, or rap, they all have different rhythms. and you do a different type of dance to that different rhythm.
For instance you can't dance a cha cha, or a tango to "American Boy", because those dances are not the right rhythm to dance to that song , those dances are the wrong rhythm, for that song. Get it?
Melody is best described as the song itself. (The words which are lyrics), are sung using specific musical notes what is called the melody OR THE WAY THE SONG GOES.
For instance, when you sing "Happy Birthday" You always remember that "melody" and everyone ususally knows how to sing it because we sing that same "melody" and lyrics (words) all the time.
Also if we sing the National Anthem, "The Star Spangled Banner", even though we may not know all the words (lyrics), we know the "Melody" and can usually start the melody with "Oh say can you seeeee, by the dawns early light....
Well, all the lyrics (the words) to the the Star Spangled are always sung the same way with the same Melody .. (and even if we dont remember the words (Lyrics) we can HUM the melody (the song itself).
The point is, everyone knows the song by the "Melody" or as some poeple say, "the way the song goes" not necessarily the right words (or lyrics).
One last thing, the songs melody does not have to have lyrics (words) the melody can be played on an instrument only, without words, but you recognize the melody by the song (melody) itself. For instance "Tequila" there are no words, but you recognize the melody (the song itself.)
Lastly, I should say... some one hums a song to you and says I can remember the melody(the song itself), (or the way the song goes) but I cant remember the words (lyrics), do you know the words to this song ( and they hum the "melody" (or the way the song goes) to you to see if you know the lyrics (the words to the song).
Ok, now you know the rhythm, and the melody, then you must want to know what does the "beat" means.
Well the BEAT is how FAST or SLOW you PLAY the RHYTHM in order to SING or PLAY the MELODY. Whew!!!
I hope this helps you, sbskeeper.
Agape,
Foxx

I have scanned back, missed out on a few pages but fuck me there's so much good stuff. I love the Baptazia mashups. Those happy clappers don't realise how good they'd be at a jungalist rave.

@Visionary Tools - Digging those tunes. I love the older sounds of DNB/Jungle. Tracks were raw and original.
Haha yeah, the baptazia videos are priceless. Always a nice laugh.
