Instra:mental - Watching You

[@RadiantPhenom]

It's 2024 and this tune still slaps

[@SQUIZZLER24]

This track literally changed my life and I'll forever be grateful for its creation.

[@natalie4692]

one half of instra:mental is boddika - he said he couldn't produce dnb anymore because he couldn't top this song. he was right. its perfect.

[@trevor4835]

i forgot about boddika thank you for reminding me

[@Decoy303]

I don't really consider this drum and bass and I never considered boddika a drum and bass producer. More techno than anything.

[@heinojuul77]

@@Decoy303 has more in common with afx windowlicker... not bad at all

[@AlegriaDNB]

Well guess what, Instra:mental are BACK! Apparently got a new EP near ready, check Boddika's twitter ;)

[@khyland6]

@@Decoy303it’s 170 but get what you mean as it it doesn’t sound it. Instra:mental were def dnb, boddika branched off and did his own 140ish thing which was wicked

I drove from Leeds to Plymouth 18 months ago on my way to France. It was half shithole half very nice. I’d go back. The hovercraft was novel 👍

[@KrankuSama]

What I love about minmal/autonomic stuff is the fact that put on any other DnB genre whilst driving and it'll make you want to drive fast and hard, put on something like this and it will make you want to chill and cruise. Not necessarily better than any other sub-genre, just different. Different atmosphere.

[@grah55]

It's been drum & bass when it came out years ago and it still is.

[@jamiecupit2381]

Love this for all time - still startlingly fresh

[@BoDeLo]

TUUUUUUNE. If you like this get the dBridge and Intra:mental cd from fabric. The whole cd is this style and atmosphere.

[@marconesounds]

If thats not enough, track down the Autonomic Podcast series.

[@rtgsac]

dont know when i'll ever get bored of this tune

[@MrChefbaer]

No words... just touching you, touching me

[@timsurftim]

sometimes i love kickin back listening to non dancefloor tunes and cruuuuzing the web. so chilled

[@CrystalFissure]

This is really chill. I like how the main chords are only three notes instead of the big deep chords. It works well! Haven't heard much of this Minimal D&B stuff, but if this is an indicator of what the subgenre sounds like, count me in as a fan.

[@madscientist057]

CrystalFissure flipside is even better... Just satin my favorite glitch tech down tempo from all of that autonomic shit

[@rd-cv4vm]

it feels like it was produced in 2023 :)

[@IdeaUK]

Still my favourite Instra:mental. Such a perfect tune

[@kd1s]

I got turned on to this group via KBCS 91.3FM out in Seattle. Their City Soul radio show had featured "Let's Talk" which I thought was awesome.

[@KsparMolecule]

still gives me the chills^^

[@daver00lzd00d]

i had this song pop into my head on my way to work this morning. i couldnt figure out where id heard it, and just finally realized it was from tek one's yellow cake mix a few years ago. got the track list, and now im listening to this amazing song fer realz. thanks for posting it, the scenery is very fitting

[@local1925]

Still a fan fam 💪 I'll play still 30 more years later idc

[@trevor4835]

man it's been years since i heard this, what a timeless gem

[@albert341]

this rules so much

[@ahmedkhan1453]

The best tune of the year. How can someone turn out genius tune after genius tune? This is unbelievable stuff,

[@China_bot538]

Great tune, love it. Long live music!

[@foulplay21]

I would classify this as music. And it's beautiful. End of story.

[@josh742]

Those vocals are lovely.

[@rosebudcheney]

Absolutely love love this track big TUNE!!! feeling Instra:Mental 4 sure!!

[@ThePerfectBalls]

Genres are great for people that are new to music but really at this point it has all crossed over into the same.

[@fernandolopez1639]

It appears in Drum and bass:The movement...amazing tune

[@Hollowpoint321]

Well said, this is a gem of wisdom amidst people mindlessly following the 'top rated comment' which, insofar as I can tell, suggests we should all unify into some amorphous blob of collective musical appreciation, who disregards genre, bpm, style and taste, and instead sit on our respective asses, and aimlessly stare at our screens and appreciate music simply for 'being music', regardless of how we feel about its identifying characteristics.

[@DocG1337]

goose bumps, every single time...

[@jadejones5670]

Beautifully produced!!!

[@jonathancarter2347]

Reminds me of my dog looking at me when I got food

[@rastafar64]

....Divno...bravo....:)

[@purlinoo]

@nickshel ur right, this isn't dubstep, but it's a familar kind of music. U can see that in the tunes of Boddika who's a part of instra:mental, if I am not totally wrong. And he does some dubstep stuff also. I read this discussions several times here on youtube. And people arguing about genres the whole day are kinda annoying, too ^^. btw I checked your youtube channel, you have a great taste of music, respect for that!

[@supastylin64]

this is pure brilliance

[@bsjdad]

Instra killing it!

[@dieafram]

if you're gonna do genre ting, its the autonomic sound which was d bridge and instramental i think. genre is useful because it allows you to think about the music and understand what it means in relation to other music which is how its made. shutting up and listening is great but thinking is great to.

[@jjungleee]

Sick tune!! I lost this in time... nice one.

[@Slaughterthem19]

I discovered this song the same way! After hearing that song come up on the Tek One mix, I fell in love with it. Funny how you could so easily find it from remembering it from years back though :0 I had trouble.

[@Slaughterthem19]

still here, 10 years later.

[@solitonwave]

I fffluckin love thisss tttrakkk. this is the apex the nadir.

[@mjisabeast231]

Vibessssss. Can anyone recommend more music like this?

[@albert341]

Try D Bridge, Om Unit, Fracture, Mikarma. Search for the Autonomic Podcast Series from a while ago, or the more recent Heart Drive. Oh, and don't forget Stray

[@petarpetrovic7605]

Yoshinoru Sunahara, trust me

[@madscientist057]

CosmicGal yeah the flipside and anything from the freely distributed autonomic podcasts by dbridge. This however is not freely distributed and I bet if you really appreciate it, go by the tune from beat port or whatever Satan has turned the price of a track from 17 dollars per plate to two fitty...

[@Thatdoorsajar]

I think if there is a heaven this is probably on repeat......

first heard this on the fabriclive 50 autonomic album, if you like this i urge you to listen! Everyone should listen :)

[@sxyspaz]

@LEDCircus probably because they like it and wonder if there's anything else like it. if they're trying to fit it into a genre just for the sake of it than i agree.

[@mister-shifter]

This stuff ISN'T DUBSTEP. This is around 180 bpm, and as someone else pointed out it's more akin to experimental/minimal drum & bass. And Instra:mental is two guys, neither of whom are dbridge.

[@nickshel]

@NarlenWolves It's not Dubstep :p. It's minimal drum & bass.

[@andihow421]

cool vid
