Roland MC-307 Hardcore Jungle - Amiga 500/OctaMED/AkaiS Series business - VINYL RELEASE PREVIEW

[@Housinberg]

big respect for replicating that 90s studio environment, worth its weight in gold!

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Cheers man it’s definitely my happy place.

[@drowncast8498]

These are all massive tunes

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Nice one! Can’t wait to have em in my hands tbh 👌

[@nickrails]

Fuck, the 90s is the most under-rated decade of music - me and a fellow 40 something raver try to tell the 20 somethings at work how mad it was as all these musical explosions took place while everyone went nuts during the acid and pill revolution. Loving your stuff!

[@TDGCmote]

nah frfr doe its real history

[@TDGCmote]

Long Live the underground!

[@growingup15]

Man I am so happy to hear this sound has come back. I know it's of the 90s but I always associate it with the Early 2000s since like literally every bit of media used Jungle and DnB.

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Absolutely with you on that! 👌

[@willh7352]

Every bit of media TOTALLY used Jungle and DnB. I hope it comes back in full force

[@daniberlanga]

Banger tunes! OMG the memories when music pierced your brain. Love it. And crazy to see OctaMED in use again. The 90's never died!

[@noteimporta2880]

talk about talent, creativity, resourcefulness, old school and blowing minds everywhere...

[@VarionJimmy]

I haven’t used OctaMED since the early 90’s, but as soon as I saw your workflow, it all came back! Key commands and other things I thought I’ve forgot. I still have everything including hundreds of diskettes with samples. So.. you got me inspired to start again. 👍

[@DerSkalde]

Old school Jungle is my drug for over 20 years now. I love this music!

[@anatolykosychenko8038]

Hi Ya & best wishes. SuperB. Thanks for work. Be Happy. Sevastopol/Crimea.

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Thank you 🙏

[@sirghty]

I loved AKAI S2000 in my high school days! I wouldn’t say I liked jungle but the work environment is what I wanted and admired.

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

I really like the s2000! I know most don’t and can’t get on with the small screen but it’s the first one I got when no one else wanted it. It’s done a lot of work for me so it’s like an old friend. 😊

[@sirghty]

@@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe Same here. I got a used one in mid 90s. even at that time, s2000 was not such popular. I loved s2000's sine wave with rich harmonics. I know it might sound weird, but even though I'm a researcher in acoustics now, I still think the sine wave is the best base at least for jungle and drum'n'bass.

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

@@sirghty absolutely! I couldn’t afford one when it came out but I had a Dj buddy who had one, he complained about the screen. It was none the less Akai’s stripped down machine. I do have MESA, Wave Lab and Recycle all hooked up via scsi but tbh I don’t often use them. I was fortunate enough to pick mine up around the time soft samplers took over and no one wanted them. The G3 Mac I was using that I saved from the skip wasn’t powerful enough for a soft sampler so I got the s2000. I actually got it for nothing as the seller packed it poorly and broke it. Win 🥇

[@datapusher-]

Nice! Love your sampler collection. My first sampler in the 90s was a esi32 like yours. I had the centronics cable and the zip drive for 128mb storage lol. I thought I was big pimpin back then! Big up!

[@nickrails]

Man I thought I boss with my zip drive

[@TheValueOfN]

Nice tunes. It's great to see/hear OctaMed still being used. My Amiga 1200 and all of the sample floppies are still gathering dust in my mother's attic. I really should dig it all out.

[@i_never_asked_for_an_alias]

Good stuff. Even the bits and bytes have beards and grey hair now, but still kickin.

[@SebCrateDigger]

Wow… Wow… Wow… This video made my day and for the rest of the years. Thank you very much for this. 🙏

[@Rulon-bo1ig]

When I listen to 90s jungle, hardcore etc I think of all the work involved and space needed. Never been patient enough to use amigas or ataris. That S2000 has true grit, amazing sampler. You got yourself a time machine, big respect for helping to keep it alive!

[@schenken660]

I'm strictly an Ableton Live user, but always in awe of you hardware guys - wish I had all that gear and the dedication required lol. Very impressed, hence subscribed.

[@simaoski5560]

i mean, hardware is fun, but after making a LOT of tracks on both ableton and hardware, i can tell that the ableton ones always sound better, and now i'm trying to sell all those equipments before they stop working

[@Dayta]

i sooooo much miss working with a computer that actualy does what the user wants it to do.. like working on protraker fast tracker octamed stuff like that. smoldered 2 mb chipram into my amiga 2000 back then to get more samples loaded (and the settler map size 8) haha .. what a wonderful time and all that hardware i recall doing live act with only the mc303 nothing else. other djs were kinda jelous because they had to carry like 500 kg of vinyl boxes meanwhile me just casualy slapping on that roland toybox and out of nothing there was the sound .. bringt back so many good memorys and i like havintg a video with THAT like uploaded these days. thanks for that spark of old memorys surfacing back into existence.

[@CRAETION_]

just stumbled across your channel, just gotta say this is SO COOL. keep preserving this older hardware

[@K0nt4kt]

BIG UPS!!! BOH BOH BOH!!! Gotta get my hands on some of these jams for my throwback mixes!!

[@brianlespoir6287]

Looks a lot like my setup about 33 years a go, Amiga 500, the C64 with the Final Cartridge III and a Tracker program, but for midi for My AKAI S900 and Yamaha SY99 I used the Atari and I was very proud about my DAT recorder. My favourite sampler was the Yamaha A3000 with HD recording.

[@DesiLofi]

Wow I had the same setup, used to fry brain 😂 tech at that time , the game Chaos engine blew my mind too lol

[@osands]

I use to have a 307 back in the day. Nice! I loved it.

[@fredericpasco2863]

it is not so young , back 25 years but with an atari 1040 st , i was 27 ,lovin' memory thx mate

[@JayKaufman]

I just happened upon your channel and the way you still work is crazy! It's like stepping back 25 years in time. I don't have the patience to work work with my sampler anymore because of just how long it takes to load things in, multi-sample, etc. Seeing that Mackie desk is triggering my PTSD. The VLZ-styled series was so popular with electronic musicians in the 1990s - especially for overdriving the inputs.

[@CheloScotti]

8 and 12 bits are so beautiful , amazing

[@paulb4uk]

Superb .

[@drone6773]

you rocked it GOOD my man a 100% great look in to your kitchen greets from Amsterdam Holland

[@auxlen]

the joys of moving hardware...i miss it and don't(lol). I still have my yamaha A400 and Rmx1...should bring it out again.

[@auxlen]

also i started with fast tracker buit quickly went to cubase. there is a lot to be said for the limitations of hardware, but i feel you have to declare your gear otherwise 'snobs' think you are using software without paying your dues. (all of the above is just may opinion, man---The Dude)

[@aplodismen]

Oh yes. oh yes. So hard job. I was try to use tracking sequensors, but its crazy - very very hard. My deep respect for you 🙏

[@ljmrecords2564]

I'm in love . With your gear..Great video s

[@hellf.o]

Now this is my cup of tea! Jungle is massive!

[@chiwalker7325]

Banging tracks, reminds me of my days living on Haight Street in S.F. Back in the days ✌🏾

[@ghal3on]

cool seeing your workflow! thx for that, and keep the tunes coming

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Cheers! 👌

[@aftertheendtimes]

Thanks man fo shareing, very cool studio you got! big up's from Sweden

[@KarimLeMec]

I had a quite similar studio to your until 2000 since 90s... Tears in my face.. Thx for sharing, dude!

[@f0rtuzer0]

Nice mate. Feeling old haha... love it. Octamed brings memories flooding back

[@TheHatMusic]

That's a lovely mixer!! I do love old Mackies, they're so well built. Kudos on the USB emulators as well. I installed one on my 01/w and it's such a huge time saver from swapping floppies about. Some very lovely kit in there, and it's gratifying to see that it's still being used by a competant producer!

[@paulgilson2347]

Yeah man that 93-94 vibe...was there...still there lol

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Big up man! It’s great place to be ✌️

[@jdre1976]

Nice nice.. you just gave me an idea on how to use this MC303 my wife ended up with thats been staring at me for 3 years.. Old Skool rig!!

[@Saffa_01111]

Absolutely awesome to see that 90s studio set up keep it going! Your beats sounds Amazing good as Chase n Status return to Jungle 👍

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Cheers 🙏

[@SnazzyBoxx]

Love your channel mate and can’t wait for the sample pack 🔥

[@practicetracksdmc]

really feeling these vibes - really nostalgic setup and sound.

[@lucid484]

reminds me a lot of the sound on my MC-505..... Definitely much the same sound engine and sound set. Glad to see it making some cool sounds.

[@ButeSound]

Was an audio octamed maker for 10+yrs. Using Amiga mini got my old tunes going!

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Brilliant!! I’ve not done a huge amount with the 8bit audio from the amiga it’s mainly because sampling in is a bit of a problem in my room due to electric hum. I have a work around now though so I’ve recently got a track on the go. Such a cool sound!

[@DJDigitalJosh]

I had a 307, 303, & 505. The 307 had all the sounds of the 505 plus extras.

[@futureg1rl]

so cool, you have my dream setup. maybe one day i can move from using my PSP.

[@badm.d]

Dooope, you've got some gear id love to get my hands on!

[@marcus_hermansson]

Awsome! I had an Amiga back in the days. And lots of cables 😂

[@thamessinclair2010]

I have set up my OctaMed SoundStudio colour scheme very similar. And the music hits my taste as well so sweetly.

[@DJ_TideWave]

Man! This is so awesome! Love the 90s setup! I love drum & bass and jungle from the 90s! Best decade for drum & bass! I have made some drum & bass tracks myself, but with a more modern setup. Love this setup though. Like it was done back in the days. I could only dream of such a setup in my teens year in the 90s. Born in 1979. Subbed your channel btw. :)

[@Schallkoma_Rockenberg]

super cool video and studio. i remember those good old times with my amiga and protracker .... i even had this heman and battlecat in my room :D

[@blpblp-tj7ux]

nicely done, sir...i love the vibe

[@DavidJones-kz6ik]

Holy hell. Brilliant.

[@dustmighte]

Bud you got a dream studio right here

[@G1SUNPLANT]

Cool tracks and basses! Great use of gear! Looks like a lot of fun!

[@zachb7374]

Da selkta...!! Yeah mun. Yeah mun Bring it..!!

[@arcann_de]

Sir, your screen is missing a top hat to this moustache! love the music

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

Hahah!! Ok… must find a crt top hat 🎩

[@Matthewsavant]

Jeeeesus what a set up! Fucking massive respect and the tunes are fire.

[@stefandowney]

Awesome... Never managed to catch jungle I got to the platform too late, I listened to a bit of Quicksilver in my youth and then got reintroduced to EDM via Axwells 'Now that I found you' forgot it and Deep House popped up on my KZbin feed a couple of years ago and have been hooked on Nora En Pure and Gioli and Assia ever since, closest I got to jungle was watching Ali G the movie... However I just really enjoyed watching this and listening I might have to start watching out for the trees even though I'm not called George. Thanks, best wishes, Stefan, Jersey, Channel Islands.

[@ApexDubb]

I believe 96 was the year MC-303 was released and 98 was the year MC-505 came out…. The MC-307 was dropped in the same year as the MC-505 if my memory serves me correctly… I bought the MC-303 and MC-505 the year they were released and although I tried the other groovebox’s during their release I found that the 303/505 combo was more than capable for my needs…. I also remember the representative showing me the SP-808 before it was put out on the floor as they figured it was something I might appreciate not realizing at the time I already had an MPC 60ii…. Good stuff and hearing those sounds takes me way back🤘🏻

[@echomatics2715]

Can’t get enough of this! Mad love 😁👊💜💜

[@SeanRaine]

so awesome dude feels like my cool uncle showing me his music rig as a kid lol

[@johndoe-nh9sh]

Ooof, back to 93/94, smart tunes 👍👍👍

[@23erStudio]

Good to see, OctaMed lives :-) I loved it. Had a selfmade Sampler. I also had instead of the 2MB Ram 2,5MB Ram. I just soldered a half MB on the RAM :-) Great Work Bro!

[@channelite]

Octamed has really cool colors. Love the green and pink, reminds me of being on acid.

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

[@raspberrypi2965]

[@appakling]

dream setup right here

[@power3musicfrenchproductio931]

BRAVO SPLENDIDE ; from Paris France

[@DMSSS]

PLEASE 6:51 how this pluck synth sound is called?

[@dziany_forsacze]

Try to DIY. Create old dial tones in any DAW, match the pitch you prefer and add short echo. Or search thru sound pools with jamaican dancehall lazer sounds.

[@user-vd3if4wq6m]

Amen? Cmon mang! Make your own!!!

[@Meteotrance]

Ah Octamed i remember seeing some crazy guy's using that kind of MIDI setup fully live in the 90's Rave scene was wild and fearless ! We where young and with no plan for future, only our crazy bullshit Techno music made in a garage, with some second hand shop sound module.

[@mattyg499]

Just scored a mint 307 for £30…….sounds pretty cool.OG 90s )))

[@12BITJuNGLEOuTTHeRe]

That’s an absolute score!! Enjoy!

[@Tomorrowomari]
