If you’re a music producer and this reaches you, please comment so it doesn’t get lost on the non music type of ‘jungle’ videos 😂 It’s been lovely connecting with you all and I appreciate this community that’s forming here so much

[@Bittamin]

Love love love finding these videos right when I decided to dive into jungle! Been a househead forever but always a fan of breakbeats, being a drummer I can’t resist the vibes 😅

[@DruNature]

Ive been producing for almost 20 years, hip hop, metal, rock, edm, but I never tackled Jungle cause it's just the greatest and I didn't wanna fuck it up! but I think I'm finally ready! I grew up in Jamaica in the 90s so this sound really resonates with me! great tutorial, and I appreciate that you provided both samples and free vsts, really well made video, keep it up!

I’m a 40 yr old mom. As a teen in the late 90s rave scene I wanted to learn this but didn’t even have internet then. Knew some djs at 16 but they were all older guys. So glad I found this and maybe I’ll pick up a new hobby. Nice that you included the Human Traffic scene 😄

[@TVD1984]

Now I understand why one day in The Netherlands as a teenager I was playing around with my stereo, picked up a hard to detect AM frequency station from England with what I now know as Jungle, I had never heard of Jungle before and it blew my mind, it was mainly gabber and hardcore trance that was popular in NL. Now I understand what I picked up, it wasn't mainstream radio at all but likely some place perhaps even a ship broadcasting. Amazing. Thanks for sharing, I never would have known.

[@mipmipmipmipmip]

We need jungle I'm afraid

[@-processdrone-]

immediately before "jungle" there was a short lived genre called "ragga" (it lived around 2 years) . This was very similar in retrospect, but was solidly focused on the dub reggae influences and it was only when jungle exploded that people were allowed to step outside the rigid; chopped beats ,dub bass lines, some relentless MC chatting format, adding whatever other elements they wanted (e.g. the synth pads) and finally telling the MCs to shut up and let the music happen sometimes (progressively more & more). Jungle swamped its parent entirely- and Ragga was absorbed wholesale, rather than replaced.

[@DragonaxFilms]

That bit about illegal radio stations is incredibly cool, I didn't know Jungle had *Deep Lore.*

[@christhescientist]

Yes! Glad you appreciated that, I felt it was important to include. Growing up I used to love hearing them in the car with my Dad, whenever we were driving through London :) Lots of nostalgic memories

[@tweeleaf]

i mean a 32 year old genre has to have quite a lot of history.

[@ferguson8462]

jungle is from the streets bro

[@dh1380]

I used to Dj on one 😅 That scene in the record shop from Human Traffic is funny but is actually pretty realistic.

[@gavanshanley9135]

[@TheKnobCalledTone.]

I love seeing young people with genuine passion for stuff made before they were born. Hopefully we'll see a full-on '90s style jungle revival very soon. Great video. 👍

[@christhescientist]

Thanks very much! I really appreciate this kind comment :) Glad that you enjoyed the vid and I can visualise a jungle revival happening very soon

[@Bisshead]

there's been a 'jungle revival' happening every year since 1996 lmao

[@assortedpov9722]

DJ Harmony (of Moving Shadow) fame launched a label called Deep Jungle in 2017 (I think) and Tim Reaper's Future Retro label is pushing a new era of jungle to new audiences. Deep Jungle was initially releasing previously unreleased 90s stuff off DATs people had laying around but then they started releasing newly produced jungle and Harmony's even been producing again. I've been a big jungle fan since I was about 20, although I was born 1990 so too young for jungle when it a new phenomenon.

[@Aejixmusic]

Already happening ;)

[@bitmikealerts_lol]

The closest we might get is the "breakcore" scene

[@ninjacrumbs]

True story: I`ve been in Tokyo for 24 years now and 4 years in I met this bloke from Leeds who was a diehard DnB fan. Showed me some tight shit to open my eyes when I was only spinning pure minimal techno. His name was Chris. He always had the fun. Hence, his nickname was Chris "the Pharmacist". Now that I am much older, and hopefully more mature, seeing Chris "the Scientist" break down more efficiently than the other Chris could have hoped, I am now thinking it was probably the drugs that messed with the comprehension/explanation aspect of it all. It is awesome to see a new generation find musical gold!!

[@christhescientist]

Thanks for sharing, Tokyo and Jungle have had a close relationship since it’s inception. I’d love to visit Japan one day

[@BD-zg7is]

[@kill1nowz]

Thanks for the reply! It's cool that you're still pretty underground so you have the chance to respond to comments ^^ I was making my own track today w your content provided and I couldn't get the dred bass sounding as full as it does in your video. I would be super grateful if you could explain what effects you put on it (when you have the time!). Much love @@christhescientist

[@christhescientist]

@@kill1nowzI’d recommend using an EQ that cuts out the super lows (everything below 30 hz) and the highs (anything above 7/8000 kHz) I then run that into a saturation plugin. A free one you can use is the Abletons stock saturator, remember to adjust this slightly as a little can make a big difference. I then also layer some kind of Tape saturation plugin at the end of the chain, this gives it that 90s grit. Also remember to EQ out a slight dip for when the kick drum of your drum break hits. This prevents muddiness and allows for a higher perceived level of loudness and clarity. Finally, after applying these steps don’t be afraid to turn the volume up on the Dredd bass. When I have it playing in this track it’s the loudest element. A way of checking this is by turning down your track super low, this bass should be one of the last things heard before you completely turn the volume off. Also these are the specific saturation and tape saturation plugins I used: Inphonik RX950 & the slate digital VTM tape machine. To get the inphonik to work, just push the input knob, then adjust the output to Match the previous volume. Hope this helps

[@kill1nowz]

[@latrace1986]

This is so cool. I'm just young enough (born in 1986) to miss the 90s rave and jungle scenes but old enough to remember how this sound influenced video game music and other stuff that was more accessible to me as a kid in the 90s.

[@Jmcinally94]

I really respect the clear reverance and knowledge you have about not just the genre, but the culture that spawned Jungle. Seen a lot of Americans simply just call it "PS1 music" which is where the sound ended up, but totally whitewashes its origins. The fact you were able to put together such a concise tutorial with authentically nostalgic visuals on top is so cool. Mad respect.

[@christhescientist]

Thanks very much! This comment meant a lot to read, jungle certainly carries a lot of love and nostalgia in my heart. Fond memories racing through London with my Dad in a car, blasting this

[@nickwallette6201]

I have a hard time with stuff like this. I love that this video fills in some of the historical context. That just makes the whole culture of music richer, IMO, to understand more of its origins. OTOH, I really don't like when people imply (or outright claim) that the evolution, or even just the impact, of a genre of music is somehow a disservice. Music has always spread from place to place. It's how styles continue to innovate. In the 90s, I *loved* jungle and DnB. The heavy influence of many different flavors of electronica is also one of the things that makes the PlayStation one of my all-time favorite game consoles. (That, and the absolute treasure trove of superb games spanning the genres from racing to RPG.) It was a natural fit -- the PSX audio chip was basically a sampler, and had the same limitations that a sampler or early arranger/workstation keyboard from that era would've had. Namely, limited memory to store samples, and a handful of effects that could be pulled off in real-time. It was the same motivation that littered the Amiga and PC MOD scene with techno. You just couldn't write a song with convincing samples of organic instruments because the waveforms were too complex, and too long, and therefore took too much space. Also, it was arguably the first time a games console targeted a demographic that would've been at the right age to appreciate that kind of music. The result was that this "underground" music style was made available to a whole generation of young adults, who spent time listening to it out of obligation (it's just what was playing behind the game), and in turn, developed a taste for it. Maybe some people think that makes it "less pure" that more people like it. Those people are called snobs. Maybe some other people feel the composers of those soundtracks had no right, as they were just kids from the UK and Japan (the primary hotbeds for game development at the time), and so it's yet another case of "appropriation." Ugh.. As if anyone is born superior. We're all dropped here on the planet, a citizen of any given nation by happenstance. We didn't choose it, we didn't earn it. We are what we are out of pure dumb luck. And to think that we would rob anyone of the chance to contribute their ideas to a genre they're passionate about, over something as trivial as their postal code... I am thankful for the changing of hands that music has been through. I feel we've benefited from it greatly. Make no mistake -- there have surely been some atrocious acts of theft that have left a scar on history. Heck, the entire music industry is a mob. But a guy sitting in front of a computer contributing a track to the Wipeout XL soundtrack isn't that, and it's utterly unfair to hold them accountable for the sins of others. It's not their fault that some 13-year-old didn't know the whole history of sound systems when they were bobbing their head to The Prodigy. IMO, if that disconnect makes you uncomfortable, educate. Yourself or someone else -- doesn't matter. Don't just complain that some kid liked music that didn't belong to them. Fill in the gap. The DJs spinning vinyl in Jamaica didn't come up with that stuff in a vacuum either. Nobody does. It's been a cooperative effort since the beginning of time. Few things unite people like music, and it's such a waste to try and contain it when we could be using it as a means to foster respect for each other. Maybe that's not what the OP was saying at all, and I'm preaching a sermon to nobody here. I actually hope that's the case. But regardless, having someone refer to jungle as "PS1 music" sounds like an opportunity to expand someone's horizons.

I keep rewatching the first one minute of this video, it’s incredibly well done. If you ever make a full music video I will listen to it on repeat. Amazing!

[@christhescientist]

Thanks! I have music I’ll be releasing on this channel soon, so if you like this one, I’m sure you’ll love my other stuff :)

24/7/365 junglist over here. Great content man. Legit mid nineties jungle silkiness with the samples. The layers, the chord sequences the rolling breaks, the edits. Top shelf really mate. Keep it qwerty!

[@AvgJane19]

This was so awesome!!! Excellent work ❤

[@whisperSSG8]

epic sonic gameplay

[@christhescientist]

I feel it fits the energy and speed of jungle and breakcore music

[@jesuschrist3732]

what’s the song played over it?

[@Jonpoo1]

Production quality on these videos is mad.

[@christhescientist]

Thanks Jon! Appreciate the love fam :) More coming very soon

[@stdbz]

love finding this video. subbed! amazing work, thank you!

[@ypesh]

This video is soo good! Man i remember 92-94 hearing jungle, and breakbeat loud from the council blocks on the estate. This video brings it all back, so well made. That paperclip lol. Subbed! 🎉

[@youwhat1450]

i came from tons of low poly dnb jungle ambient mixes. started at this early autumn and feel the drums. im 40 yo and want say thx for re-enter my psp sega games era

[@christhescientist]

Nice! Glad this could spark some motivation :)

[@MedlifeCrisis]

Proper trip down memory lane. Loved the Windows look with the attention to the little pop up clips and FX (and clippy lol). Loved it, especially the intro with a bit of history. If I had time and budget I’d love to make an expansive documentary on the history of jungle and D&B in the vein of Netflix’s Evolution of Hip Hop.

[@christhescientist]

Thanks my friend, that’s high praise coming from a creator as talented as you :) Glad you enjoyed it

[@DingbatToast]

The visuals are as epic as the beats. Awesome work 🙌

This is the best tutorial I’ve watch so far, your way of explaining was top tier, cheers man

[@9-tailed_Fox814]

Listening to this kind of music for decades and never know what's the proper name to call this style of music. Fascinating video.

[@chrismitchell6170]

Dude, you are bringing back a much loved piece of my teenage years. ❤ One of the last raves I went to was a jungle party in Atlanta, GA and I still have every single one of my jungle CDs. Shit, even the music software is taking me back to my experiments at trying to be a DJ. This was an awesome watch. Thank you.

[@christhescientist]

Glad to bring back some nostalgia!

[@im_Spade_]

This was absolutely fucking incredible. I JUST bought a couple of midi controllers to try out, hoping to inspire me to get back into beat making. It's been a while since I've opened up my DAW and my tastes have changed, so I'd LOVE to make some of this type of music. I'll be referencing this video multiple times over the coming days/weeks I'm sure. Thanks!

[@christhescientist]

Awesome! This was a lovely comment to read and I’m so happy you’re getting value from these videos :) have fun experimenting and I’ll have a new video dropping soon, can’t wait to share it with you fam

[@1d0ru]

you are a very talented content creator - the editing and pacing of these videos is fantastic, nevermind the vintage Windows aesthetic.

[@christhescientist]

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate this kind comment :) it’s nice when people recognise the style, effort and timing out into these videos

[@slov1499]

​@@christhescientist"talented content creator" yeah that seems about right If you're doing this alone man well done Editing is "dense" without being over the top like fighting for the viewer's attention ahah and it was pretty interesting I would've loved to see a more in depth and longer video in that style but I get that even for a kinda short one like that the work you must have put into it is huge already I encourage you to keep at it it's always refreshing to see actual quality on youtube ! Props

[@christhescientist]

@@slov1499 apologies for the late reply, yes I am the sole creator and editor on this channel. So everything you see in these videos is me :) Thanks for your kind comment and feedback

brilliant and informative video! i randomly watched this from my recommended feed and couldn't have been more convinced to subscribe. love the aesthetic and editing

Gostei da thumb, apesar do Brasil não ter nenhum representante forte de DnB, Jungle ou Ambient, ainda pode ser que alguém apareça pra ser um representante nacional do gênero. Amo seu canal cara, tô aqui há muito tempo, amo sua estética e os tutoriais que você faz, eu gosto deles porque são feitos pra gêneros bem específicos. É nois! 🇧🇷 🇬🇧

[@christhescientist]

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it my friend :) I appreciate you taking the time to check out the rest of my channel too, I’ll have more videos coming soon

[@karimayoubi74]

Great video Chris, with music history and production tips all in 5 minutes! Radio Caroline was the OG pirate radio station broadcasting from a boat and it's still going. Sadly, it never played jungle, it's mostly a rock station. I remember searching the FM dial for pirate stations in London in the 90s and recording shows to cassette. What a vibe, what a time! :)

[@christhescientist]

Wow, that’s very cool information to learn thank you! That’s the great thing about making these videos, I get to connect with people like you who know even more niche knowledge about these genres. Thank you for sharing my friend :)

[@gunderd]

Epic! Thanks! This video brings back so many coming-of-age memories. And thanks for providing the links / pointers to where you got the samples from. I am not a robot, and I have subscribed.

[@DreamShadow76]

Thanks for this! I have grown up with Jungle music from the 90s, and had my own FM 20 watt station for about 10 years. I look forward to giving it a go at some production! ;) You really captured the 90s quite well. Thanks for your help and a time capsule look at history and the links!

[@cjlister8508]

I love how sparse yet full 90s jungle sounded. Modern EDM seems far too busy and over produced.

[@christhescientist]

Yes it definitely is nice to listen to

[@rorz999]

Totally agree. 90s jungle tunes were sparse because of technical limitations, but the producers made the best of what they had. It made us realise that all you really need is a drum break, sub bass, and a pad or vocal sample and that's 90% of the tune done

[@magicalstarruby]

they dont make these types of music like they used to jungle music is a throwback for me it takes me back to my childhood

[@straightouttacornwall]

Its because everything is made on modern equipment, its just doesn't sound raw anymore. I for one don't like the polished sound of today. Its just sounds 'tinny' to my ears and lacks thrust!

[@cjlister8508]

@@straightouttacornwall yeah, for real.

[@LBO0170]

I'm a 14 year old music producer who's started to get really into the old school, rave scene, this video helped me start to learn the process of making this sort of music, thanks!

Brilliant! I’ll have more music production tips and tricks coming soon :)

I love how you explained this in such simple terms and your video style is awesome. Cheers, just subbed. 👍

[@uniqueflowsnake]

that example track was spot on. woah

[@christhescientist]

Thank you very much! I take great pride in my music production, so as much as I try and make these videos entertaining, the main focus is always the track shown. So thanks for showing that love

[@unownnnn]

Amazing production (video and music) and explanation thank you

[@Patrick-WindFish]

Oh snap that is a wicked demonstration man! Love me some Jungle and this was an outstanding video on the basics of its origins and general concepts of it. Thank you sir, you have my respect. ❤

Seeing that the new generation enjoys this music makes me very happy. I spent a lot of long nights dancing to this stuff when I was a teen. Good times.
