A Beginner's Guide to Atmospheric DnB

[@TimCant]

I had to use KZbin’s wack auto audio removal to silence Back From Eternity because otherwise I would have got de-monetised 🙄

[@crtldt]

how do you figure out, before uploading a video, which songs are arent copyrighted and which ones will get you de-monetised?

[@TimCant]

@ great question - usually I will do trial uploads to see if the tunes get flagged. In the case of this video, everything seemed OK but a while after the video went live I got the demonetisation notice from YT which meant I had to use their silencing tool 😩

[@crtldt]

@@TimCant thanks for replying Tim! good idea with the trial uploads. i hope the video got monetized back and now you're making lots of money 🤞🏽

[@TimCant]

@@crtldt thank you! I make very little money from these videos unfortunately 😆😆😆😭😭😭

[@crtldt]

@@TimCant lost of great hard work and little money :( youtube why are you like this?

[@crtldt]

this is very useful, thank you for the breakdown and awesome playlist!

[@RickRubinTheOtherOne]

Your jungle history videos are always a treat. Good stuff as always 👍

[@abstractdrumz]

It's always exciting to see a new Tim Cant video in the feed, awesome stuff m8! Congrats on the new release, big ups!

[@kuralik5169]

Absolutely phenomenal deconstruction of the history and progenitors of this wonderful style of music.

[@jmcframe]

Congrats on your release on Curvature ✌

[@StuSiney]

Soon as you said the Black Dogs track I knew you know your stuff. It was a favorite of mine.

[@philtrease]

Love these videos Tim. Thanks for making them.

[@electric_bimma]

always learn so much from your videos - cheers tim

[@MrDenme0]

Massive release on curvature!! Thanks for the excellent info on this video. 👊

[@Ephemeral-Bean]

im loving the track breakdown so far, nice to know the choices you make and why, (and to see what matches my own too) haha

[@russell5292]

15:30 Right on the money. I discovered Deep Jungle along with Dwarde and Tim Reaper on KZbin while working during the pandemic and now have a number of vynils from that label.

[@athko]

You mentioned around 16:30 finding the confusion between breakcore and atmospheric dnb odd, and while i agree that nobody could confuse a wax doctor track for x.nte - sweet memories, most of the confusion comes from the recent development of atmospheric breakcore as the most popular subgenre of breakcore right now. Amospheric breakcore actually shares a lot of the features of amospheric dnb (long sustained pads, high pitched vocal samples, deep 808s, and fast breakbeats), but with everything turned to 11 (the pads are often chorused or distorted and bathed in reverb, the vocal samples are goofy anime samples, the 808s are distorted akin to contemporary trap production techniques, and the breakbeats are, as all breakcore is, exceedingly frenetic) Example Atmospheric Breakcore tracks include: TURQUOISEDEATH - Guessabelle Vierre Cloud - moment 5ubaruu - Recluse Juglist Sewerslvt - Hopelessness DJ KLAPTRAP - Immune Support Nfract - Fayes Theme Vertigoaway - betai_bl3nder-bak Yung Lain - Spirit Runner windowshopping - EGO DEATH!!! andy pls - 65 saves Catastrophi - L'appel du Vide TOKYOPILL - Dream Sequence PURITY:FILTER - Xerox Drip IX Fall$ - dropping dead at midnight I hope you enjoy some of these!

[@TimCant]

Interesting, I will check these out, thank you!

[@athko]

also, this video was a great guide! i always enjoy your stuff, its such good quality (especially with the playlist you give to study afterwards)

[@CerealKiller]

That's not a subgenre of breakcore, none of those tunes you linked even remotely sounded like breakcore really, they're definitely more akin to normal Jungle/DnB honestly. The Breakcore/Atmos confusion actually stems from Tik-Tok, where people found out sewerslvt was inspired by goreshit (an artist which made both DnB and Breakcore tunes) and mistakenly connected sewerslvt's style of music, (which many of them never heard before, this is very important!) to Breakcore. That's it really, a simple mistake which snowballed to people applying a wrong label to the wrong genre/subgenre of music.

[@Bittamin]

Started noodling with this style of music 10 months ago, still consider myself a beginner 😂 Cheers 🍻

[@russell5292]

I just picked up a set of Cdj100s and a RDJ2 mixer off ebay, this was the push I needed 👍

[@emmetcassidy]

Great video!

[@philadams9254]

I think you got a shout out on one of those Bukem Kiss shows. Let me go through my tapes this weekend and I'll let you know which one it was.

[@TimCant]

@@philadams9254 I forgot about that but you’re right, I was sending GLR terrible demos at the time 😆

[@CerealKiller]

Good point, for whatever reason I completely glossed over the chance of breakbeat techno/house being a precursor for anything DnB related.

[@TimCant]

I appreciate the history must be hard to untangle if you weren't there! :)

[@doemaardennis]

I am in the TIMCANT loop. OMG

Blu marten is my go to every month also seba valley of the moomins

[@alexmusic9989]

Nice vid once again. I feel you should have shouted out thought forms's yt channel, as he focusses on this type of music, unless I missed something

[@fenexj]

awesome vid and track, you'll be tim can soon mate

[@mej6519]

id also add pariah - mainframe, subcreatures, limbo, blackout. to the atmospheric/tech dnb list too mate.

[@ZeroesandOnes]

you should add chapter markings to the track breakdown so everytime i want to make an atmospheric track i can see the specific bits i need to plagiarise
