In many ways LTJ Bukem was drum and bass out of all the early jungle tracks his were the most reflective of the later sounds in the scene

he was good a sampling techno records

Lovely post mate.. I feel like that too, im 56..

It’s not just in England, but it’s the entire world that’s becoming increasingly strict, & invasive. The biggest dilemma in England, is that there are so many laws & rules to ‘protect’ people. This includes strict volume restrictions in nightclubs that specifically aim themselves towards British genres which have their roots in Dub (which is where the characteristic of 30-70hz Sub-Bass frequencies originate from.) Some of these laws were genuinely made out of wanting to protect people. Too many of the laws were made due to people complaining about the noise, after moving to an area within an area of a nightclub. These were the most notorious & widespread through media. They should never have been passed. (Too many cases of residents with ‘friends’ in the local government council.) The rest of these strict laws/regulations, are made to prevent people from suing. This threat of suing is the most terrifying, because we do not want to become like the U.S. where citizens can sue for financial reasons, hidden behind some bullshit health reason that clearly takes the piss out of common sense (“You damaged my ears after I went to Fabric every Friday for 10 years!”) This is causing more & more laws, security & ruining the freedom for yourself, I, & everyone else who has the right approach. Just as a last thing to think about…It’s something I’ve experienced many times in conversation: When citizens of The newly dissolved Soviet Union first arrived to emigrate, or went on holiday to Western countries: All they’d heard before they arrived, was the freedom you had in a Capitalist society, & were very excited to experience it. They were very shocked to find that they weren’t allowed to park their car where they wanted, & in some cases they’d even have to pay to park! They went to go fishing, but then they were soon told that they needed to buy a license, which was very expensive for their low wages at that time. When they wanted to watch the football, they were shocked that you had to have a season ticket, a membership, & the tickets were only affordable at the top clubs by the few, rather than the many. Im sure you’re switched on enough to realise they weren’t saying that Socialism was better, but those three examples I’ve mentioned are absolutely tiny compared to the lack of freedom we have now compared to the 90’s. It would be nice to just not always be so tightly controlled & surrounded by overkill amounts of security & police when you go to these events to enjoy yourself. The logical answer to this, is to attend squat raves in Zone 5 London instead, but those places are just too far the other way. I used to play out 90’s & 00’s Drum & Bass in my teens at these illegal raves. However, I don’t like to inhale second hand Crack Cocaine vapours all night, which smells a bit like someone smoking a sweetened powdered washing machine detergent, & I don’t like to dance with moody gangsters just standing at the side, in case something kicks off. We need to find a balance! ❤

@ facts & perspective!! I’d tend to agree on all the points you made man. Also just comes back to simple freedoms being eroded away over time as governance sticks its boot in on every walk of life. From a music stand point, it perplexes me so much. Because everything is easy accessible and all the sounds are auto generated on the internet/ computer softwares you don’t get deep soulful music anymore. Just seeing that small glimpse of LTJ in the studio and the sounds he was making makes you realise how far we’ve gone away from true creative application instead opting for quick fixes and it’s only gonna get worse here on out unless someone or some people stand up for the values, traditions and standard set by the music in that era. I appreciate you taking the time out to reply🤝

Should see Jah Shaka sound system

It’s like watching open university on acid

@@Bubba-hl6wb Been there, done that

Yeah bit of a bellend but funny with how chill all the other guys are though

Shifty rat of a man. Lots of shady contracts and artists getting screwed back then. Pulled bukem out of a hole, but had everyone over in the process.

@@badlefthook624 Yeah, that tax bill from Logical Progression messed things up in the early days.

I love the scene of everyone outside the nightclub still partying. Everyone genuinely loving the music and loving being n each others presences. No smart phones, no materialism, no arguments…..Nowadays it’s like everybody’s minds have been poisoned by something …..

I-ON-ING

No i hav ent ..

🤣

So glad I had google translate when I went to Japan 😂
