The sound of 140 / Bass / Neo-proto-jungle-speed garage!

Last one for now. Loads of stuff on Time Is Now and Shall Not Fade - both garage-y labels.

I've posted this previously on the mix thread but see it as related...

I've just stumbled across a load of music that kind of fits here,

where are you finding these sankara?

where are you finding these sankara?

A friend put me onto the labels Time Is Now, Shall Not Fade and Holding Hands and I discovered that they were all putting out breakbeat-y stuff. A bit of googling also led me to this thread on Dogs on Acid (I had no idea it was still going):

Labels that do atmospheric post-rave breaks

I've only delved into the first few pages. It looks like there is a bit of a goldmine there though.

Etch's latest/last EP is more DnB tempo, but I really like the way his/her/their stuff is very unique sounding.

Leaning more towards jungle, but not quite

This Sully tune is the BOMB:

Dunno if it’s the right thread but I’m sure some will enjoy

Post moved from the DnB thread:

I'm going to post this here as we don't have a general bass music thread. Ben UFO played this other week and I didn't recognise it at first when I was catching up on new releases but just realised it's the same song he'd played. Love it.

I think we could do with a thread for that, loads of good tunes coming out at the moment around these tempos... hence posting it here. More?

 

[BristolEcho]

Ah thanks I did look - good idea! Love that tune a lot.

hope this bit of proto-neo-proto-jungle-speed-garage from 2001 hasn't already been posted, Harry Lime w/Bounty Killa....a really filthy bass line

yeh! I remember there being a lot of breaks stuff that took a bit from jungle back then, but the stuff I heard was all a bit smooth/bland in my head so I didnt really pay close attention.... so never caught that one at the time, it is v ruff + rude. I think it may have been a v London-specific thing and so never reached me.

also playing ray Keith's Dark Soldier at 33 instead of 45 has a similar effect!

 

[pbsmooth]

I have this off that label which was a good track. Doesn’t seem to be on YouTube!

Reminds me of when Zinc and maybe Hype (and Brockie now I think about it) were making garagey breaks tracks.

 

[rutabowa]

yeh I remember zinc doing them. it kind of balances being a bit cheesy and dumb with being raw and simple enough to make them bang.... definitely dancefloor stuff

Bang on. Just like the Brockie one - obvious and cheesy but did the job. Almost like the dnb boys were showing they could bash out the bass and breaks garagey stuff with their eyes shut.

 

[ska invita]

Had a look through that label and this is the one Ive come away with - develops and changes all the way
big bad sub hit on this

 

[rutabowa]

I find a lot of the dumb unpretentious dancefloor banger stuff ages better than the more "intelligent" tunes.... same w/jungle/d n b.

with a lot of exceptions, obv

I had a one off dj gig at a mini fair with bumper cars in the Somerset house courtyard some time in last few years... the harry lime drop was def highlight! would also work to accompany waltzers.
