Wiltsghost posted:New Metrik from the Horizon 5 soundtrack. Sounds wonderful. Is hospital releasing a Forza 5 soundtrack? Haven't seen it announced yet. BTW always appreciate the recommendations. Someone alerted me to the newer high contrast album that has a lot of classic sounding D&B jungle that I really enjoy. Does anyone know of other artists creating similar 90's grounded d&b. So far I like artists like J Majik and Tim Reaper, but I'm sure there are lots more that you guys could recommend.

I have a kind of weird request. What genres are the Bomberman 64 and Bomberman Hero soundtracks in? https://youtu.be/Sw5tHvnUu7k https://youtu.be/HQ-DJd-57Lo I was never really into dnb, but these soundtracks made a big impression on me as a kid. Hero is apparently more dnb-ish, but I’m at a loss for 64. Any ideas, and any recs based on them?

Funny you mention those games, I was really into them as a kid as well and looking back on them recently I had a similar revelation about how they steered my musical tastes. Skimming through it, most of 64 sounds like just 'video game music' to me, with some tastes of early D&B and breakcore/IDM (tracks like Sirius II and Masker have a bit of frenetic syncopation going on like an Aphex Twin song, which to me is 'breakcore'), but yeah, mostly generic video game soundtrack. The Opening theme with it's slightly-shuffled rhythm sounds a bit like early hardcore, like a PG version of a Prodigy tune. Hero's soundtrack, on the other hand, has a much stronger and more varied rave influence. There's a lot of D&B/jungle in there, more breakcore, Cell is basically straight-up acid house, and Dessert and Fatidic are trip-hop to my ears. In related news, usually when I have pangs to start songwriting again, I look for something to remix (since it's a bit easier to start with something on the chopping block than to poo poo it out from scratch). Last night when I got home from work I ripped the theme song to Buck Bumble and the character select music from 1080 Snowboarding into Ableton. I'm going to poke around with those samples in the next few days and see if anything fun and nostalgic comes out of them - to my ears, neither of them are right for a D&B treatment, but who knows. At the very least, they'll be well-received when I finally get to DJ at the arcade again. Here's some content from local technician NC-17: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCpUmNMG3I8

Jungle, huh? I’ll take a look! I quite like this album of theirs: https://youtu.be/PR3YpUpIm4o Feel Good, Together, and Alien Creed in particular. As for 64, yeah, it’s definitely a lot more melodic than DnB and related genres. I’m curious about its lineage, but that’s for another thread.

OPERATIONS vol. 20 is live. As usual, this is mostly D&B, but it takes a very unexpected turn into some house and techno near the end. Very hotcue-intensive, probably the most work I've put in for a planned mix since my Traktor days. I'm really glad I could put this together and share it in time for the Andy C show tonight. Also gently caress, I can't believe there are twenty of these mixes now.

Liam Bailey) (Break remix) Dunk - Fake Love Dub Phizix - God’s Tears Marcus Visionary - Steady Rock Simple Simon & Pharoah - Diamond Cut Zero T - Come & Reprazent Acid Lab - Amon Re Makaveli - Cockney Joe Martyn Nytram - Gunshot Lupo - Retrograde Kublai & Minor Forms - Future Motion BCee & Lucy Kitchen - Surfacing (Emba remix) Low:r - Bawlin’ Out NC-17 - Widow Maker FreezeUK - Stay Focused Marcus Visionary - Full Control S.Murk - Hat Spine Agro & Devilman - Head Top Sola & Jfal - Rattlesnake Trex - Let Me Go Again H20 - Parasite NC-17 - Bunged Up Toronto Is Broken - Make Me Feel Fat Sushi - Life, Death & Robots Shapov & NERAK - Vetra Fach - Like This Boys Noize - Nude (ft.

I am looking for help on an ID. It was definitely either a late 90s or early 2000s track, some of the lyrics were as follows (to the best of my knowledge) and in an an-cient civ-i-li-zation that we built to (??) ... everyone's (??) is in their heart ... but the (??) gonna wait (?? sounds like "afro's" lol) ... (chorus?) here i'm..... com-in' ... sorry that's probably terrible but that's all I remember. Definitely a bit more on the chill side as opposed to the darker side, and a ton of lyrics in a male voice

Absolutely. That is without a doubt in my top three favourite DnB tracks, and typically the first that comes to mind when someone mentions the genre. It wasn’t my intro to the genre but it was the track that’s had the most lasting impact on me. I’m trying to remember where I heard it first. I want to say it was on a GU CD maybe? But I’ll be damned if I can pinpoint which. I’m not usually MUH VINYLS LOOK but Peshay’s mix is super proudly front and centre every time I sit down to make music. Such an inspiration E: Ok yeah, GU 004 Oslo, Oakenfold. That whole disc starts off super trippy but tbh peters out after Bukem’s track, but I mean it’s a hard act to follow so I’m not shocked. some kinda jackal fucked around with this message at 02:52 on Feb 24, 2022 |

Oakie can either have mind blowingly good track selection or really poor; I think both his GU mixes fall into the latter, while I loved the Another World mix CD.

Virgil Vox posted:Don't think I've heard this mix before but the first disc rules: He's actually mostly a miss for me, but the first GU004 CD was a perennial fixture in my weekly/monthly music consumption up to track.. let's say 7. I almost always jammed the stop button after that. Most trance/house/electro is incredibly incredibly hit or miss with me and frankly I still haven't been able to articulate what it is about those genres that appeals to me in a way that I can say "oh yeah if I liked X quality of this song I'll need to ask what other songs I should look at". Which is good in a way, since it forces me to sample a lot and with the proliferation of things like apple music and di.fm I can basically dump as much time into random recommendations as I want which is something I would never have had the luxury of in the 90s and early 00s without investing a lot of download time and research. Back to Bukem -- I am a steadfast fan of his music through and through, but the Music remix is one of those where I definitely prefer the mix to the original track. Nothing wrong with the original, but the mix just adds that punch and a little bit of je ne sais quoi that really gets me excited about this genre. It's exciting and chaotic while being lightly droning. The .. repetetiveness is the wrong word so I apologize, I just can't think of a better music term .. repetetiveness is a build up that makes the chorus/drop almost euphoric and celebratory. It does an amazing job of knowing exactly how long it should be and doesn't overstay its welcome.

I said Music was one of my top three. Here's the other that is firmly planted in my top three and, surprise surprise, it's another Peshay mix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oa7Rmsoa6z0 I'm a big but selective fan of Photek who is the other artist that immediately pops into my head when I hear the term "DnB". Immediately, clear as day, for me it's LTJ Bukem and Photek. Much as above, the original track is amazing and needs no help standing alone, but the mix adds a little layer of detail and edge that moves it from "great track" to "unforgettable" to me. Both Photek and Bukem fall victim to my picky musical nature though, and while I believe they're clearly legends and leaders in the genre, if I was counting hits and misses I think both still strike out at the end of the day. To that end I don't think there's an electronic artist on earth that I will be able to say that about though. The styles are so fluid and open to experimentation that there are almost certainly things about these tracks I love that I subconsciously pick up on that other tracks lack and I just can't articulate. It's going to be a real struggle for me to identify the third of three, which means maybe I only really have two, or I have more than two and am excluding unfairly, but I'll have to give it some thought either way.

I have an odd request. Do any of you have (or would be willing to make) any 155 bpm mixes? I realise that is the very low end of d&b but I thought it would be worth asking. It needs to be 155 bpm because I want to jog in time to it and 155 bpm is exactly the right pace.

# ? Feb 24, 2022 13:38 |

I'm curious if you could play tracks at 89% speed somehow, and how odd that would sound overall. e: I never really thought about coordinating jogging pace to BPM but now it makes sense. It feels amazingly good when you find a song where the beat hits in time with you hitting the pavement, and also how surprisingly jarring it can feel when you suddenly get out of step

155 is the super sweet spot between Drum n bass and Dubstep, it was always so awesome to be at a dnb set and have them slow it dow a little with a super grimy drumstep track to slow it down https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4xuISEW-Bk Dieselboy loved dropping this track as a banger in his sets, always nuked the crowd except for the fidget kids who would use this as their bathroom song, lol, you could always see the rush to the bathroom during these parts

Martytoof posted:I'm curious if you could play tracks at 89% speed somehow, and how odd that would sound overall. Yeah it's a good idea isn't it. I got it from this NHS running programme. https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/exercise/couch-to-5k-plus-running-podcasts/ It has sections of each podcast where you run at different tempos. I think 155 bpm is jogging, then between 160-170 is running to quite fast running (for distance runs). So drum and bass is perfect. I only really want to jog though. Slowing a mix down sounds like a great idea. Is there any free software I could do this with?

Look no further than https://www.audacityteam.org/ 10% is a pretty noticeable slowdown, though, and it's likely to sound kind of weird. At least, it does to me. You should probably look into juke/footwork as well, most of it is centered around the BPM you're after.

Tracklist vibe swings wildly but all the tunes are 155 exactly. Pls don't judge my mixing playing these at - 10% or so makes it really strange sounding to mix. Also the tunes still might sound "off" but I think the pioneer master tempo will be better than an audacity tempo change. In face there's a guy who plays Psy Trance that's normally 140 at 122 to mix it in with more progressive stuff and it sounds really good (like objectively cause psy trance is poo poo). https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-fV6nqNr_dHIq83NRo0Aw8rglDQDu2Ib/view?usp=sharing I started with some modern liquid that I usually play just pitched down but I didn't like the way it sounded so I edited those out and faded in when I got to more experimental tracks closer to the target BPM. If it doesn't have to be Dnb I could make a longer mix of wave/liquid bass stuff that cruises at 155 easy. Was fun thanks for the idea.
