Let's create Jungle/Drum&Bass like we're back in the 90s 

I lived in London and the radio waves were filled with pirate Jungle radio stations - it was fantastic!

Damn the endresult sounds like directly from the 90s. So well done!

Literally the only channel that helps me understand how to make this stuff, and what a great genre to recreate.

Jungle is still the best genre. I can't believe not many people still create in this aesthetic. It's so sick.

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! 🔥

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.

We used to call this Breakbeat (before Jungle) back in the day. The drums here have a nice Alec Empire vibe.

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....

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

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!

You so nailed it. Absolute 90’s banger! I’m a teenager again thanks to you.

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!!!

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....

Started listening to this on my iPhone, didn’t take long for me to realise I needed to fire up the hifi and subwoofer. 🔊

16:30 To me this is such a mid 90s sound, like 94-96. Fucking love it!

I love how this is a history lesson, and a tutorial on breakbeats, samplers, Ableton, and an entire genre (that I still love to bits)

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 extremely accurate to the real jungle sound bro

I love the fact that you dig into the genres history before making sounds. I never had found this before, or at least with that concern. I find it pleasing ! Thank you 😊 Time to watch !

Was wondering the other day when you would give us another master class. Love jungle. Big up big up

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

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.

Well done. That would be a vinyl release in 93-94 for sure.

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

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!

14:02 That time stretching still gives me the shivers. It sounds so eerie still to the day! Love the track you created here!

You have my vote for best channel on RU-vid. 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.

Huge respect for using the sampler!!!! Well done, subbed

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.

Honestly when it comes to 90s electronic music i like Drum&Bass as much as i love trance.

I was amazed at how convincing the final track is. Excellent work.

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.

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 ♥️

The final song was so cool. The human evolution quote is from the X-Men movie (2000)

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 feel like I'm back in 1994 in my boys basement spinning on his 12's all over again. That was awesome

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

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.

Like we used to say in the 90s, this is wicked!! 🙌the final results sounds freaking authentic! 🔥

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.

Me and a friend made some killer jungle tunes on FastTracker II back in the mid 90s. Had a hell of a time.

Breakbeat Jungle can never be undone, it will forever be produced for all kinds of reasons ❤

The track makes me want to find my old Toonami Deep Space Bass CD. 😌

Drum and bass and jungle will never die, wicked!

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!

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.

This was so enterateining, i love how you go deep into the origins of the sounds instead of just playing and arranging them in the track

It’s like metalheadz in Camden on a Sunday night again.

As a Jungle, Drum n Bass Lover since 94, I welcome this Video from you , Jonas with deep love and respect. As always, great Video. Very insightful!

Great. You can be transported back to the 90s again! From what I've heard it's common to use a tracker to produce this type of music, so instead of Cubase maybe Renoise would be a better choice.

A lot of your back-to-the-basics principles have been injected into me and my latest trance song is a reflection of some of those teachings. I, like many other it seems, are greatly appreciative of your content! Context, lessons to apply anywhere, and to finish it off a true delivery on the promised piece! Truly excellent video as always. 🙏

9:50 didnt know the history of reese creation) Thank you!

That amen brothers break. Reminds me of the PowerPuff girls

the right tickle to the ears

A RU-vidr who actually makes amazing music. Finally!

Top explanation. Top track. Top visuals too. 🌻

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!!

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!

16:20 NAILED 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 🙌🏻

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.

Bad ass. Memories of '94 come flooding back. Reminds me of old Aquasky and Omni Trio jams.

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

Great job as always. Brought me back to the mid 90’s sitting in Ken Damage’s bedroom blasting this stuff loud as hell.

Return of the king!

Jungle is massive

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.

There's some days where I'm like, I wish Estuera would make a vid about this genre, and then I open youtube a week later and there's the video about that genre, amazing

Jonas is love. Jonas is life.

You could do a whole series on "arrangement". How to change and (re)introduce parts without sounding jarring, track structures, etc It's done really well here, again

Wicked! Wicked! Jungle is massive!

5:26 I believe games as famous as unreal tournament have used this in their music. Great stuff! Drum&Bass is epic and unreal!

I'm glad Drum and Bass is making a comeback.

So good! You always make it seem very easy, but really it isn't. I guess that comes with experience!

We are making jungle exactly like the 90s!!

Amazing video, ive seen lots of "90s Jungle" tutorials and none come close to this. The final result is spot on. Well done 👏

*_🏎️ RACING GAMES BABY! 🏁_*

You have a very good understanding how things work in different genres! Really enjoy watching your videos!

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 ;)

omg finally! this is absolutely awesome.

Brings back a lot of memories, good ones. We were young. What a time.

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.

Another delightful demonstration by Estuera, thank you, Sir!

Cool tune. Nice construction / deconstruction.

This was extremely fun, thank you.

You have been very inspiring to me, next week I am playing my first rave. It is a bit of a minor rave, as it is just at my child's kindergarten's Christmas party. So just a whole bunch of under 5 year olds and parents. But it will be a good experience to play out live. The children should enjoy a bit of live music I will play some techno live, I have roped a mother of another of the children there to play with me on the set as she has a music degree which should help perhaps? I have only ever played in public in brass bands before, so this will be a bit of a change. Thank you for all your videos, they really help me learn how all the songs are arranged and structured :)

I save this yummie treat for later. Well Done Brother. 👏👍

I really liked that trick you have for making breaks. haven't seen this one before. very nice!

Jungle is the best. 90s was the best, your videos are the best.

Yes! Just last week I got into DnB from one of your older videos... been making some myself when I saw you uploaded this! Awesome!

Soul is the sole.

i said before and i'll say it again - best channel on yt

I LOVE BREAKS CHARLIE I LOVE BREAKS I LOVE BREAKS CHARLIE I LOVE BREAKS hot tune brother :)

Thank you, Jonas! 👍

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.

Thank you for educating me as to where so many of these tracks got their baseline hooks from ❤

It took me a while to get around to watching this, but I was not disappointed! Great work

It’s from Xmen! Great track, love these tutorials
