Great video Guy - thanks for the shout out ! Pleanty more coming from GPU Audio before the year is out

I was today age old when I learned one of my favourite tracks of all time had Peter Cook on it

It was a merely few kilobytes sample storage away from being called Voodoo Rage. Derek and Clive - Bo Duddley, if you are looking for the unmistakable samples

I still have so many great memories of dancing to this at Kool Kat in Nottingham 89-90 :) Thanks for making this breakdown - awesome work as always.

It's the greatest British Acid House track, hands down

The 'whoosh' behind the snare is an 808 clap run through a really tight gated reverb.

Oooh nice knowledge! Thanks :)

I spoke to a man about a dog in a club one night when i first started going out. I was too scared to actually do it that night but it was burning a hole in my pocket for the whole week until one night I decided to do it. I sat there listening to this song over and over again jamming in my room along with other acid house classics. It will always hold a special place in my heart. This wasn't that long ago either (well compared to the life time of the song), around 10 years ago now, I was 18. I imagine there are thousands of people who remember their first time and this song in particular and I share that with them.

The fascinating thing about this is that the main bass line pattern is palindromic aka a mirror image of itself. The original version on the album had straighter drums, then came the main remix that a more swung drum track.

Such an amazing track, which remains my equal favourite acid house track alongside Ecstacy Club's "Jesus Loves The Acid" and Baby Ford's "Oochy Coochy". They even got played at the goth clubs I went to in London, as they didn't sound out of place alongside industrial and (old school) EBM.

Oh yes! Oochy Coochy - one of my all time favourites, too. Had almost forgotten what it was till tracking it down on YT a couple of years ago. Eon-The Spice Must Flow, another classic I think from around that time.

Hey I would love to see you break down one of gerald's later drum n bass songs! They have so deliciously complex drums.

Always loved a rim shot

I don't know why more people didnt sample Derek and Clive!! 😅😅😅

I've played this song 1000s of times in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas.

Well done. For a long time, I thought the bass was a DX100.

If you loop a sample on the AKAI 950 You could set it to loop back on itself, forwards and backwards I think that’s how it was done for vocal sample 🤔 I always thought it said “danger “ 😂 Great reconstruction ❤

I love this track, I love your videos and over all, I love your taste in music. I'm sure I was born in the wrong century!

Very cool.

So he maybe just double tracked the bassline.

The hunan touch is the difference. He did it live over with shit.

Slightly disappointed by the discovery of "danger" being "later". 😂 Things that keeps this tune so fresh: it sounds somewhat held back and mysterious, it doesn't have a crazy buildup and climax.

The contributions made by musicians of color to electronic music are often overlooked. When the genesis of this genre is discussed, names like Kraftwerk, Wendy Carlos and Jarre are never neglected, but there's scant recognition of Frankie Knuckles, The Belleville Three and Gerald Simpson. So, Thank You for making this video 🙂

Sequencer is very loose, goes out of time on the 12. Prob some archaic old hardware sequencer or drum machine sync

Yes, it’s easy to re-do a track, but he did it 1rs you are yes , respecting the song, but Gerald took a lot of time to do it, and for you is just try to copy it…. Sorry 🇧🇪🙏

Had the money 7:18? 😂Bruh, you have well over a $1k worth of music equipment in that studio of yours! I’m quite certain you can afford an original TB-303! You’re better off just buying the $400 TB-03. It works and sound almost identical to the original, no doubt! The average listener won’t know the difference in the sound comparison.

Such a pity that he got totally screwed over with this record - saw no real money from it. It was effectively stolen by some dodgy label, and now owned by someone else.
