Adam Betts is a MONSTER!!! What a drummer

[@aadmzz7428]

bro facts

[@bartzdybel8409]

for sure, but what did he use to mute the ride? underpants, need to try this, cool af

[@harry.flashman]

he aint chris adler tho.

[@HighconicLive]

100000000%%%%

[@Useityy]

I don't think so

[@postmortemritual]

Goldie just doesnt make music, he lives through it, its his pure essence, its something beyond the music itself.. Thats the difference with the miriad of other producers. This performance is another game changing move by Goldie. Organic /Synthetic. Perfection.

[@arthurspbdnb]

Мастерство

[@archieward3147]

Goldie's is my shaman an sound healing is good hehehe !!!!!

[@LordMarlle]

Nothing game changing about this. Electronic music has been played live by real musicians for years. This was a great performance tho

[@ckckck12]

​@@vite432speak for yourself. This is pure gold

[@aristiluss]

Dzoskknałe, niesamowite, ogień, Goldie jest wizjonerem. 💥💥💥

[@hhsweater]

this is absolutely phenomenal, all these musicians are firing on all cylinders!

[@HighconicLive]

Amazing musicians, so talented!

[@GettheFouttahere74]

Well..I’ve been DJing jungle/drum and bass for 20plus years, and I gotta say that this is totally nuts, love it ! Respect to all musicians, and Natalie, what a huge voice 👌

[@ArchOrigin]

Blown away by Natalie's vocals

[@lvph2523]

Isnt she just remarkable 😫🔥

[@straightfaya7765]

Yes blown away🔥🔥

[@mayamac1458]

You know that... 😮❤️‍🔥

[@creek5949]

Absolute world class performance!

[@MattJoyce01]

yep. tears to my eyes. art moves us.

[@a.d.the.4mvla43]

*Holy fookin shitballs* _This is impeccable that drummer on the right wow all the musicians absolutely nailed it... Goldie is a D&B composer living Legend his ear for sounds is unmatched_🤩🔥🔥🔥

[@mistercohaagen]

Make no mistake, they are equals. No two drummers on Earth could match hi-hat syncopation at these tempos, but the fact that both drummers combine to sound like the precision of programmed breaks is incredibly high level... especially since they're playing to a click track in their ear, which is way harder than you think it is. James Brown's drummers had an easier time than these two genii.

[@FreeFinca]

​@@mistercohaagen 👏🏻

[@JayKaufman]

Natalie Williams absolutely SLAYS. Rarely are vocalists pitch perfect live and she literally doesn't hit a bad note. Incredible. I'm in awe. Plus Adam Betts doing what he does on drums... This makes me want to see this band live. Crikey!

[@30m3]

Natalie killed those vocals. Stunning.

[@overcraft4480]

What you mean killed?

[@FreeFinca]

​@@overcraft4480 sung exceptionally well.

[@LevLemkov]

long story short - it's gorgeous: goldie and these brilliant musicians have made almost impossible - maestro himself has turned out to be first ever drum'n'bass conductor while every single person has made invaluable contribution for a live band to become a fullscale orchestra what a pleasure it was, it can't be overestimated, let's recognize it as a masterpice of d'n'b, i say

[@seansley]

Love it! Great to see Goldie look so happy

[@Decoy303]

He got sober.

[@JackYBrown2010]

🙏💚✌

[@Loneranger670]

Organised, anarchy. Classy and chaotic. Aggression and tenderness……..Wow…this is the best dub alive …….that bass makes my whole body shiverrrrrr…the drums drive into the ground and the cymbals bash my head in from allsides while Goldie swirls around attacking everyone with jittery love … and one word dooms day statement while the female vocalist breathes angels dust over the whole sound,,,,,,,,, man………I’m in heaven

[@H0meb0y666]

Beautiful - made an old dog shed a tear listening to ‘I Adore You’ Take a bow 👏🏽

[@abbasidanny]

Same here man, actual tears 🙌

[@Wolfdings]

I have no idea how the algorithm came up showing me this performance, but I didn't listen to Goldie for a long time. I was so brought back to my teenager time more than 20 years ago and instantly bought the Timeless LP

[@whatsmyageagain91]

This is just amazing, I wanna see them live

[@stirron]

You can soon.

[@jefffinan49]

Movement Detroit, this year!!!

[@whatsmyageagain91]

Rewatching it for 10th time, Adam Betts is a fucking machine gun. Props to all artists though.

[@sasharadojevic]

Inner City Life has been giving me chills since the nineties. The entire album lives up to its name. To this day, I don't have any idea how you achieved such unique sounds and soul-tearing harmonies. This live performance added an extra layer of pleasure. Thank you! ❤

[@burnheel8332]

Потрясающе, спасибо.

[@ivanrastrigin1138]

Слушаю это на репите и плачу, плачу и плачу, за то счастье которая мне даёт вселенная через таких гениев как вы

[@HighconicLive]

This is pure art 🖤Goldie has always been an avant garde artist and he deserves everything!

[@lolocaust4967]

Avant Garde? Pretentious bullshit. He's just a drum and bass/junglist like the rest of us.

[@claassixclaassix9712]

Tears in my eyes.....especially @ Inner City Life... .It's a brilliant Performance! Respect to the whole musicians 🥲❤❤❤🤪

[@ronalddonald-cj8fu]

😭👍

[@andrey7382]

both drummmers have to listen to each other--and this all at that tempo--amazing work!

[@TakeMeBackPirateRadio]

The Godfather Goldie!! One of the most influential figureheads in the Drum & Bass scene. All musicians and the vocalist is perfect harmony. Beautifully made!!

[@PlightOfTheInnovator]

What an extraordinary live singer she is. Magical.

[@nCuXOOPrA3M]

inner city просто супер! Goldie, Russia love you!!!!!

[@RONINSHADOWS]

Wow again and again, on repeat, every morning and evening! Sense of Rage & I adore you... simply phenomenal in groove, depth, musicality in short we feel the soul of this music in each riff. The Bosses remain the bosses... & again wow the guitar notes of Sense Of rage... immeasurable .The hair on the arms every time Natalie W. the complicity of a real group with only gems of musicians.. .

[@daviaribeirobr]

MR Goldie and ALL in your Crew! I literally crying here! So much emotions on this show! Awesome!❤❤❤❤

[@ShangoLos]

Natalie nails it! She adds her own flavor to Inner City Life while totally emulatng the sound of Diane Charlemagne. Made the hair on the back of my neck stand up!

Acousticly performed DnB is so hard, surprised you don't hear more in vein. Goldie is goated

[@ICTS22]

London Elektricity was the first and only other group I heard perform acoustic DnB

[@stirron]

Dr Meaker too...

[@mrjop]

@@ICTS22 I went to see Roni Size live in 2002 or something and he had a full band with live drummer with him. Amazing show. Rahzel performed with him that night too :D

@@ICTS22 4 hero did it as well

[@HIMOMLETSGO]

please people in the comments keep with more live acoustic performed dnb reccomendations all of these are so fire i am in extreme need of this niche sound

I fucking love jungle, I remeber when it was still called hardcore, metalheadz has added so much to the genre itself, big ups Goldie !!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. Natalie did a great job covering Diane's vocals ..

[@vinman3057]

Micky & kenny play jungle. This is drum & bass

[@Decoy303]

​@vinman3057 actually this track was produced back in '95 and it was called Jungle back then. Drum and Bass didn't come around till like '97.

[@vinman3057]

@@Decoy303 your talkin utter rubbish. Jungle has a ragga sound ,Drum & bass cutting edge futuristic edge to it

[@b1nary_f1nary]

@@vinman3057 Jungle does not have to have a ragga sound at all. Jungle is mostly made up of chopped breakbeats where as drum and bass is usually keyed in single drum hits on a drum machine like bum tsh cah tsh. This is breakbeats so it's probably leaning to jungle. Not that it matters
