as an Ex-recordstore Owner I have to say, this is the only Movie that gets the Scene right. Truly authentic 90ies Club Scene and youth Culture. I miss that.
yet there is a Moron 2 comments away whom thinks he is a smart ass by saying "That awkward moment when the producers of a show don't know the difference between jungle and dnb" 🤣🤣🤣
its literally a biopic of my early years. Remember walking into 5HQ in Leicester and Leroy (DJSS) played us a loop off of "lighter.." what od you tihnk of this..
They were hammered filming scenes. They were real ravers as well as actors. It wasn't an accident. They NAILED the entire scene basically, maybe bar the real underground side of it, but the stereotypes cross over so meh. Crushed it, forever. Just the national anthem. Never mind the glass table scene. Or the paranoia scene... Etc etc .. Nah mate, they crushed the whole thing!! Lol moff, so harsh!! Never happened to me but my mate it did haha Just.... dude. 🇬🇧😎👍😜
Loved going in record shop chill for ages listening to tunes and getting some none of mates would have heard yet + a load of flyers to stick on ya wall 🎧
@ HighCommisioner..... I would like to agree as I love this movie!! I do have another that's just as good or better. The Movie : Snatch! The Scene: At the Abandoned gypsy's campsite..... Jason Statham and his partner in crime are walking around and the police show up and start asking him Questions...... The Q and Stathams Answer has ALWAYS made me laugh and it goes like this,,,, cop: "What's in the car??" Statham: "Seats and a Steering Wheel." LMGDMFAO @.... All of that.
@@kevinthebassfelon1304 every line in Snatch is quotable genius! One of my favourites is, "How many fingers did he have?" "Sorry I couldn't get the bi-noculaarrs out in time"
@@mcirelandosharma7411 ...... Yes, Yes, and YES!!! If I could understand EVERYthing that Brad Pitt says, I'm positive I could find another Loved Line. LOL. Man, I love this Movie. Take Care Sir. Enjoy Your Everyday!! -----> Me. Live Life, Love Life, LoveSexy!! ----->PRINCE.
Sorry guys the v.i.p was made exclusively for this movie (only difference is the voice over by actors but makes it that much better) ;) I've tried searching for years no luck :(
"Any jungle in guy" a line I've never forgot said right before one of my favourite DnB tracks drops. This is some proper legend shit. Kids don't know!!!!
I met Shaun Parkes at a comic con a few years back and he signed my Human Traffic DVD with the quote "This could turn Hare Krishna into a BadBoy!"....fckn legend :-)
A decade earlier would suit me just fine 😆 turned 16 in 1990 and BWOY did i have a blast😨 99 is a special year for me though my son was born and UTD won the trebble 😆
I really miss this time. Clubbed a lot, didn't do drugs (no shade to those who did, I just didn't) and just loved the music and the general vibe between people at this particular point in time. Such good music around in the 90s from so many genres. For a while I lived around Brick Lane, Columbia Road, Spitalfields. I was pretty happy, everyone else seemed pretty happy, there was optimism and a lot less division (still some, of course, but less than now). Now I'm 51. I have a good life. Just bought my own apartment with my lovely wife whom I adore. My job is decent. Money is not a problem (not rich but not struggling). Still I miss this time of my life and the sounds, images and feelings that went with it.
I saw this when I was 15, my brother suggested it, the following year was pretty much my adventure into this world for a few years and they are some of my fondest memories and meaningful moments, as obscure as some of the conversations were and some often ridiculous, remembering being that open with others and a lack of inhibition and just the pure feeling of being at one with my fellow humans, bliss. Not to mention the long walks home during sunrise, 3 miles and a smile on my face, pure ecstasy!
@@omdangy shit I can’t answer for him but from what I’ve seen others talk about I think after a while you just need a break from it, too much of anything can be excessive and quite honestly finding that euphoric feeling through other ways can be a lot better and less tiring and stuff
2023, 43 years old, awake for 24+ hours because I work a demanding job. I got up and danced HARDCORE like when Stalker came on. Some habits never die. Keep the spirit alive mates. The energy is contagious
As a 47 year and experienced the days of raves in the 90s this film is the best ever made .. its more like a documentary 😂😂.. fantastic times that will never happen again.. im glad i was there...
EssiereFFm There's one thing I didn't quite get. I listened to "Stalker" (album version of course) and I didn't hear any vocals. Is that some kind of Mash-Up or remix? If so: Do you know where I can get it?
The 90's, back when you had to periodically lick the needle and reattach it to the tone arm several times throughout your set just to keep playing in stereo or even at all, everyone danced even if they didn't know how, generators and any slab of concrete or structure was deemed fit for a party, record stores had turntables set up with headphone amps and headphones as listening stations, people were knowledgeable about the music they listened to and didn't need a balloon acronym to describe it all to them, EDM will die out when the trend runs its course, Jungle / Drum & Bass is timeless. P.S. That one leg hop though...
I worked in an independent record store in the early 90s. I relate to this so hard 😂 there would be queues of “jungle kids” and the store policy was that we had to play any record a customer brought up to the counter to listen to…
That's because bugger all has changed in the last 20 years really.. The stuff we have today (2020 now) is still the same shit that we had by 1999 /2000.. It's just smaller and faster now... But still the same shit. By 1999 we had: The Internet / WWW, the beginnings of broadband. Google, Yahoo, Ebay, Amazon. We had photorealistic CGI, We had DVDs, and digital cameras, MP3 files, texting, email, live & on demand streaming, webcams, Drum n Bass in all its forms, Trance in all its forms, and most other forms of electronica. Big Beat & Trip Hop had already been and practically gone. Fatboy Slim had already peaked and was soon to be past his prime! The fucking Spice Girls, had been and were on their way out! .. We had Flat screen TVs & Monitors. We had mobile phones & Smart phones (just not app based yet). We had GPS, and PDAs. We already had the Matrix Trilogy rolling out. The Lord of the Rings trilogy was in the latter stages of production. We had Reality TV. ( Pop idol was the precursor to Xfactor), The Island, Big Brother Already existed - late 90s. We had early social media - Friends Reunited came out in 2000 (developed in 1999), We actually DID wear our clothes in the same way that we still do today. The early 2000s cars (developed in the late 90s) coming out still don't look that dated even now - 20 years on!. And yes, we actually had the first versions of Bluetooth and Wifi by 1999 !!!!! - And yet you compare EVERY preceding decade to the one before it.. there were distinct differences in culture and technology. The late 90s were VERY different to the late 80s. that in turn were very different from the late 70s, and so on.. Yet we get to the 2000s, and we just seem to be coasting along with the same shit year & year.. Compare 2009 to 2019 - Practically bugger all difference! it looks & sounds exactly the same! - Small & faster & shiner, yes... but it's still polishing the same turd year in year out... It's all just EVOLUTION now.. Nowhere near as much REVOLUTION any more .... Have we 'peaked' perhap? Food for thought ... the Stagnation of the 21st Century.
@@xoio My God I wish you were wrong... but you are 100% correct! Regurgitated, pastuerised pap everywhere... Meh I am an Old git now though so WTF do I know lol.
Cammosnow in school in geography we were doing ecosystems etc and I remember the teacher just saying the word jungle and me and my mate looked at each other and shouted across the room..... 'any jungle in guy'! :D it was the go to phrase whenever the word jungle was mentioned
I was 20, this film is pretty much my life back then. Absolutely nailed the culture of the time. The flashback to the rave scene is awesome too, Oklahomaaaaaaaa! Bit young to have gone to a real one, but I remember under 18s ones playing the same stuff with the same dancing and fashion. You can tell Kerrigan was a true clubber, and partaker of the disco biscuit. Weekender is pretty good too, even though some of the tracks don't fit the year - Pennies From Heaven, etc, came out years after the years it was set in. No biggie unless you're a vinyl junkie with an encyclopedic knowledge of release dates.
I have been mixing dnb for about 10 years now since I got into it when I was at Uni and I have to say that Stalker is still a banger and a staple of any set I play. Makes any task easier when you put this on!!
This is by far my #1 movie of all times.... it's all perfectly mixed together in it. The actors(!!!), edit, music, story, atmosphere. Best thing for me is absence of that awkward feeling you often have when watching other movies, even with best hollywood actors. It can be pretty good movie, but you still deep down inside feel & know, that those people on the screen are just actors doing their job - acting. I don't know how to describe it, but I don't have that feeling when watching Human Traffic. For me it's super funny window into the world of hardcore clubbing friends and what I appreciate the most is, that the actors don't act at all - they are 100% natural/true and literally living the movie story. I just can't put into words how much I love this movie, just because of this. Justin Kerrigan is mothaf*kin' genius.
Absolutely m8! One of the forgotten gems of cinema history. It became double as funny when my English-skills were finally up to the task of deciphering this gibberish. I LOVE the British accents, I just don't understand a lot of it. 🤪😉🥰😂 Greetings from Germany
First saw this in 2005. I was 14. I got really high with my friends. We torrented Trainspotting. When that ended, someone said Human Traffic was like Trainspotting but less dark and more comedy. I almost died laughing during this scene.
Jheeze "Human traffic" was 24 in 1999 when this truely classic movie dropped ! . Still one of my faveraite films now timeless great time's even better memories still !! . Bless up . ✌💊🤘💯
Reminds me of buying Vinyl in Unity Records, Beak St, London. Sadly shut down, as have many other stores. The memories are fresh as a daisy after watching this. This film is very true to the 90's; what a splendid decade it was too. Bosh!
Meh I'm from the West Coast of Canada and have been a Junglist since 96 and this scene was every Thursday at the local vinyl shop.... So I gets it haha.
I have fond memories of talking codshit to strangers can't remember what tho but having a babble regardless, but the vibe is what I miss most, talking to literally anyone that'd listen until I found sum1 on same 'wavelength'. wish I had experienced the 90s rave scene
I really miss vinyl , promos , crate diggin , makin other dj’s jealous with a dub plate or two .... friendly competition and rinsing each other out. Testing each other’s skills out bouncing off each other and just smashing the set as one fam.... Was a.w.o.l ...., 🌟
If you were wondering, the blue record sleeve with the yellow sun face is V Classic LP on V Recordings 1997. The one to its right is Sonartribe - New Mind on label Digital UK 1997 and the one after that is Enforcers: The beginning of the end LP on Reinfored Records 1997. Shout out to all the old Bagleys and Labrynth massive, truly happy days!!
