None More Fast: The Story of Extratone 

I'm a little sad that Diabarha didn't have more mention other than a clip of Uranoid at the beginning haha, Diabarha is still making insanely good Extratone and Speedcore stuff even over a decade after that original song.

Missed u bby. I made a HOW TO EXTRATONE a year ago... It's actually pretty easy now-a-days but back in the old school days it was pretty revolutionary.

at 1:47, I bet that uranoid. that's an extratone joke folks. laugh please.

With extratone you can't know if your CD is broken or not

Hypertone: *Am I a joke to you?*

please do one on breakcore, like igorrr and venetian snares and satanicpornocultshop.

Haha, wow did not expect this video at all. I was (well still am) involved in the splittercore and extratone scenes back in the late 2000's and it's good to see you cover it like this. I was honestly expecting it to be mostly made up lies but you got some key facts down and am thankful that it wasn't skewed entirely as "LOOK AT THIS WEIRD THING". Few things i'd like to point out though 1) Extratone in its purest form did not actually originate from speedcore, it was more of an experiment from a guy called "Einrich 3600BPM" who back in 1998 coined the term because he wanted to make the fastest music possible. It has more in common with noise music than speedcore. However with that being said there is some overlap between the 2 genres and people like Annoying Ringtone, Kurwastyle Project, Imil, Loffciamcore etc have all made extratone-styled-speedcore but not "pure" extratone. though with that being said most people in the scene these days do recognise that style as just being straight up extratone. It's really interesting! I'm actually helping someone out write a book about these genres as there is a lot of history behind it - though I get the youtube format, I could speak for hours about it. 2) Extratone parties, if you can believe it, DO exist. Mostly in berlin with the Trash & Core collective. People like PRESSTERROR, Ralph Brown and others perform there and they play straight up extratone. there are others dotted around eastern Europe but oddly the cultural hub for Extratone is berlin - Probably because of that collective If you want any more in-depth info about it for research purposes do poke me!

Now do a video about slowcore

ON MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY, SAM. GOD BLESS YOU

What doesn't exist anymore: their old kick-ass intro

My favorite Extratone tracks are either: Annoying Ringtone - Extratone Pirates, Kobaryo - M-e, Camellia - Hello (BPM) 2021, or Aekhlorią - Stars Can't Shine.

Did you just say "You Suffer" was 1 minute and 36 seconds?

Episode about Powerviolence

WTF THEN YOU JUST SHOW UP OUT OF THE BLUE?

Kobaryo: "Hold my USB(50,176t)"

You should cover Oscilloscope Music which is music that creates awesome images on an oscilloscope. Jerobeam Fenderson is the main guy who does it, I'm not sure if anyone else is doing it but it's an awesome idea and not enough people know it exists.

My favorite song is 4'22 by Cage... Its so good that I hear it in the middle of the forest!

That moment you actually enjoy Extratone and other forms of Speedcore

JonTron would be impressed by your upload schedule.

Here's my opinion on the listenability(?) of the genres mentioned: Gabber = It's pretty good, definately something I could listen to Speedcore = Same as gabber, it's over the top but I could definately listen to it Splittercore = It's meh but I only find very very specific songs listenable(?) Extratone = Unlistenable(except for that pirate one, that's awesome :P)

You Suffer isn't 1 minute 36 seconds. It's 1.316 seconds

you exist!

we need an episode about TheLegend27

I love listening to extratone while I work on school projects and traveling amongst other stuff, It makes me forget everything except for what I am working on. It sounds really cool in my opinion and it really gets me ramped up!

you should do japanoise!!!

diabhara is really good for extratone freakz

Kind of disappointed you didn't mention Agoraphobic Nosebleed. I know they didn't come out of the techno scene, but grindcore with a drum machine feels close enough. Glad to see This Exists is uploading again! Been too long.

After.. So incredibly long! (around 7months-ish, now). You're finally back with another video... Thank you. Love your channel, dude. Can't believe all the videos I'd wait to watch came out 2/3 years ago....

THIS CHANNEL DOES EXIST! [singing] CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES COME ON! Now that I've finally watched this; Ow, my ears.

Whoa thanks for talking about Extratone, it's one of my favorite genres. I've always found it weirdly soothing and head clearing so I'm always a little surprised when people find it hard to listen to

Thanks for coming back!!! I love your stuff!

Welcome back, buddy! And thanks for another great installment. Heres to you and your crew!!!

Holy shit, this exists exists?!? *o.0*

Nice to see you back my man, hope you upload more often

Long time no see, Sam - good to have you back!

so happy to see this channel come back!!!!!

Next this exists: This Channel Exists

Your content is so good it's worth waiting for and I've got plenty of patience. Hell, I waited 5 years for the channel Bytejacker to return after they went on hiatus.

Welcome back, This has been my favorite channel for a long time and I was a Patreon supporter. So glad to see more and I hope it keeps coming!

Always so well done, good to have you back

Most excellent. Glad you are back!

I've been feeling the lack of knowledge about stuff that exist during the last six months. Glad you're back

so glad to see you back man, love This Exists

Sam, thank you! I missed you, and I'm just grateful that you came back at all.

I've never been happier for the return of a RU-vid show

you should have started with gabber then gone into speedcore since id say speedcore is an offshoot of gabber

love the opening animation! nice video as always, i'm glad to see you again

Thanks for the new episode! been wondering where youve been!

glad to see that This Exists... still exists. I was worried the Scientologists killed you or something lol

1000 bpm? Pssshhh that's nothing for Cattle Decap's drummer.

Thanks for posting again man! Love your content

I saw Moby at a rave in Commerce City, CO. in 1991 where he played "Thousand". I was very close to him and the speakers and tripping my balls off. I recall having to fight, really fight, to breathe. The beat was just battering the shit out of me and I felt that if I let it win I would surely die. Obviously I lived to tell the tale. Good times!

Honestly i enjoy Extratone. I can even listen to it while falling asleep because it is strangly relaxing to me. And i know that people will say that it is just weird noise but for me it is a structured chaos that helps me to focus and calm down.

I actually know quite a few people that unironically like Extratone (myself included). I think the overall appeal is just... Think of Extratone as abstract art, it makes no sense, but it sounds awesome once you understand it. There are also subgenres of Extratone, by the way! Extratone is between 1000-15000 BPM, Supertone is 15000-1000000 BPM, Hypertone is 1000000 to infinity!

I'm really glad this channel is back, used to watch it alot. Keep doing your best!!

Glad to have you back man, finding your channel preserved my sanity on my last job.

Finally a new episode... I already thought the format is dead

I'm so stoked that you're back !! You are an inspiration. Anyway, quick question, where does Black MIDI fit into this? Whilst I understand that Black MIDI is more about the composition and the fact that it is specifically about midi processing and midi playback, it still is a song nonetheless. Yes I also know that Extratone is more than just midi as it incorporates samplers and synths and everything else that a techno song would have (just sped up to 1,000 BPM), I feel that Black MIDI should play a big part as a "stepping stone" to Extratone and maybe should be included in the history and chronology. This is not a critique. You rock and I think you are extremely knowledgeable and do an awesome job. You are NOT A SHITHEEL !! Anyway, thanks for finally returning to RU-vid. !!

Yay!! So glad to see you're back!

YAY MORE EPISODES!! I am glad you and your show are not dead!

I don't know how often you do these now or if this idea has been batted around already, but I'd love to see a This Exists on sculptures and architecture that create musical sounds from nature, such as the Zadar Sea Organ in Croatia and the Singing Ringing Tree in Burnley, England!

This video (and the whole genre of extratone) seems to come from a fundamental misunderstanding of what BPM is. Ironically, the first extratone song he showed is actually around 120 BPM. just because the number on the program says 1000 BPM it doesn't mean that's what the actual music will be. The Speedcore was right at around 230, and the Gabber slightly slower at about 190 - but that's about the same speed as Cartman's german dance from south park. All they're doing is looping a sample at a very high rate and using it as a note - using this exact same process you could claim that classical music has tempos up to 20000 BPM

Finally you're back! Good to see ya!

When my wife told me a new episode was out, I was skeptical. I'm glad to see you're back, even if it isn't a weekly episode anymore. Keep it up and I'll keep watching. Can't wait for the next one.

HE LIVES! HE HAS FINALLY RETURNED FROM THE ETHER TO GRACE US WITH HIS PRESENCE! But seriously, it's great to see this show is back.

HOLY FUCK YOU'RE BACK I MISSED YOU SO MUCH

i missed you and your content man, keep up the great work! I'll stay tune in

i missed you so much, happy the show is back

YAY HES BACK

as an extratone fan i can agree with you speed is badass lmao

I was re-watching old episodes of the game theorists and came too the one where they promoted your channel. Decided to click the link to see if there had been any updates and sure enough you put up a new video. It's almost like they promoted you a second time

OMG I'VE MISSED YOU! So good to see you back. Wonderful episode! Always love your in-depth look at stuff that doesn't seem like it should be around, but is. :D

extratone is too much for me, but speedcore is something i really enjoy :) actually im not listening to anything else than Gabba, Terror, Speedcore and some Hardcore (by the current definitions)

BOUT DAMN TIME

good to see you're finally making more content!

So glad you returned! Welcome back!

Diabarha rules😂😂

Allow me to introduce you to hypertone. 1.2 million BPM and above. Admittedly, I've only ever heard two songs from this genre that I'd actually consider music but ah well. (The two songs, if you were wondering, are 'Singularity at 2.64e+6 BPM' by Kobaryo and a song I don't remember the name of that I think was by Gabba Front Berlin. The first one is genuinely just a banger I listen to in my free time, the second is just... Okay, listenable yes, but nothing crazy.) Kobaryo has sone good extratone as well.

I'm so happy this show is back

YAY, it's back! I missed you so much!

8:49 Actually it's 1.36 SECONDS long and it's the shortest song in the world

Holy shit, it's been 3000 years...

Sam! Welcome back!! Missed these episodes hard man!

Welcome back! Good to see you again.

This Exists apparently still exists.

1:48 diabarha

Happy to see you back!

WELCOME BACK!! I've been waiting soooo long!!!!

"Singularity at 2.64e+6 BPM" by Kobaryo might fastest song in the world now

Ayyy, looks like this exists still exists!

so glad you're back

SO GLAD YOU'RE BACK

Oh thank goodness! Yer back, and you referenced gabber, which I miss sometimes. If I may, you seemed to entirely skip out on the snare rush, which is defs related. As it has been employed by folks like Aphex, Squarepusher, and Venetian Snares (who used an extremely sped up snare rush to play the Sesame Street theme at the end of Getto Body Buddy venetiansnares.bandcamp.com/album/the-chocolate-wheelchair-album) the snare rush is absolutely "extra tone" territory. Come to think of it, breakcore in general kindof deserves a spot in this discussion, speaking of very high BPM. Maruosa comes to mind.

just discovered extratone music and I have to say I actually genuinely like some of these tracks

So glad you're back!!!

So glad to see you back

Thanks for the video. Now that you've covered extratone, is Doom Drone too vanilla to cover?

This episode made me proud to be a dutchman

Keep posting videos! Your content is amazing.

FINALLY I STOPPED EVERYTHING TO WATCH THIS :D
