Ed Rush & Optical "In The Studio" (2004) 

Cos they're stoned AF. 😀

legend

Well yeah;D

@@mastertarpolin Clearly, yes

I remember getting baked with these two back in the day, in Acton.

Chase and status are dropping some Bangers

Ill bring it back

Metalheadz keeping it real still

Their last album 'No Cure' was amazing in my opinion

I agree with you. Most modern DnB tracks sound flat compared to the early ones.

turgid fungus I just listened to their virus vaults release, fn epic

Got 4 of thier albums.

ya, it's interesting... a lot of artists that do these videos keep it very surface level. it depends on who it is

These guys were smashed as fuck I doubt they would talk about anything sober. Also there is a artist that does tunes for the living and there is a teacher who teaches for the living, two different things. You can bother a artist to teach you about things. He might go out of his way and show you few things but don't ask for too much. Most learned by them selves the ones who leech knowledge should just seek for a different profession. For a hobby I could understand but if you always bother others to learn things that you will cash in then you are in a wrong train. Basics are in school whatever you do afterwards is on you.

this is just a clip from the DOCO in the studio 2004...

Everything here is from their "Out of the Box" mix CD from 2004, including this video

Im going for Mahogany Sides

looool

I guess he'd rather limit just the peaks, than having ar envelopes all over everything.

No it's not compression, it's clipping, like you said. It kind of does the same thing but you will get clipping artefacts, which WILL change the sound. I don't know what sampler optical was using back then and there might've been a limiter built into it... But normaly you want to avoid clipping at all costs, at least in the digital realm!

maybe he means don't use compression on the samples, I mean as you're putting the break together, before the master?

@@PetrolAudio assuming that they constantly mention cutting to vinyl, ie analog output, then optical can get away with clipping especially for fast transient stuff like kicks and snares, since it will translate to harmonic distortion. analog systems have +20 dB of headroom

It's a technical used all over the place during the loudness wars. Clipping is quite different from compression and I would say compression changes the tone of a break of single drum hits more than gentle clipping.

Don't know if you've found it since asking, but DJ Friction & Nubalance - Bogeyman.

What for? so you can see skrillex pressin colourful buttons lol

tiago garbin Why do people type "kkkk" all the freaking time?? What does that mean??

Dumbpublic Hater Most of the oldschool dnb/jungle stuff used sampled breaks- 2nd-generation drum and bass tracks began to create their own breakbeats (eg. Soul Beat Runna).

mbbx5aw2 That's what DJ Hype calls Crissy Criss, hahaha!

lol!

did you find this? want to ID that as well...

Do you know the name of the one at 5:00? I can't quite remember. It's not swamp thing?

@@BeastmanG that's Ed Rush & Optical - Bacteria (Pendulum Remix)

Ignore me, it's Bacteria Pendulum remix

@@cun7us Thanks!

Just relax by Dillinja/Capone

@@krisis999 Thanks a lot mate!!!!

Endo Cannabinoid Their production style changed. They could create stuff like that again, it just takes a certian attitude and mindset.

XoArK I True, but it seems, at least to me, that making a track on the analogue gear would be more challenging and fun rather than digitally on a laptop which seems too easy. Tunes on a laptop could be made en masse which IMO don't have as much originality to them, like they are forced out to please the masses. It also would seem that using the analogue gear would make you focus and work harder on the track, thus giving it more life. Just my opinions.

Endo Cannabinoid I don't mean to appear rude, but do you make music?

Although I agree that most modern DNB tracks sound artificial, I wouldn’t say it's fully due to the lack of equipment. If someone has the right ideas and techniques, they can create masterpieces with limited tech. Most early jungle tunes were made using only an Amiga, give or take a sampler and drum machine.

I can only listen to modern DNB for about 20 mins before I'm bored as it all has that linear beat that is too repetitive. The early stuff had a lot more rhythm, grit, sub and fury.

Cutting of a peak is not compression, its more like hard clipping which does not change the sound like compression does.

@@EdSoloUK of course it's compression. It's just ugly & distorted. The fact that he's not using an 1176 is irrelevant. Hard Clipping *IS* Compression when you do it in this context, for this reason. Compression is Amplification Limiting. Hence "Limiting Amplifier". A compressor does exactly this... with an Envelope, thus smoothing the Peaks as it lowers them. You seem to have completely missed the point. Id est he'd be better off using a Compressor.

@@CaalamusTube another one smart ass who don't even feel a difference between clipping, compressing, limiting and distorting...

@@M.H.Margin another one foreigner trash who don't speak English but thinking understand nuanced comment in English. Learn to read first moron. You, like the guy above don't understand what I'm saying. Fuck off!

@@CaalamusTube you are being pretty rude dude...and for those interested....clipping in a digital sense gives you new inharmonics folded down from the Nyquist Limit of 22.1khz which not only hard clips the peaks but also adds new frequencies which can be useful....a Limiter when working properly just flat tops the signals peaks without the extra distortion and a compressor has no use at all in getting a completely clipped level signal as it reacts to the Threshold setting by triggering an envelope to shape the volume after the Threshold is triggered which can never react instantly like a hard clip would. They all have their uses....I think get a lot of clipping done first then using a volume envelope to add shape is the best way to go....all three ways to shape volume are very different sounding in their own way. ;0)

+GIIGF what kind of joke is this?

lol

GIIGF the guys your dad wishes he was

Are you serious????

What are you on?

@@MichaelSmith-nz1jo telling the truth ! thats what im on

@@truetothegame2928 please do explain?

@@MichaelSmith-nz1jo i watched these guys on 1999 millennium new years.. 4 hours of their music on dubplate and release sounded like one long 4 hour track the most boring experience ever, total turd ! same drums sounds, patterns ! looking pack they were total bollox... all the original jungles head were like this is over = done ! jungle is dead
