Hi all. Sincere apologies about the last upload. Due to copyright, KZread blocked a PFM remix and a Photek track, but only blocked it a few days after I uploaded! I wasn't even able to trim the tracks out so I've since removed it and re-uploaded with two different tracks in their place (hopefully this one won't get blocked). As always I love reading your comments, it's wicked to know so many people share the same passion for this genre as I do. Cheers all, Tom.

Almost all of these are virtues

This is my childhood. I had a cool cousin 7 years older and he had an amazing sound system, and 56k modem internet, which barely anyone had back then. He downloaded thousands of hours of amazing DNB which we were happy to blast in our custom skinned Winamp. All those amazing LTJ Bukem and MC Conrad mixes. GTA 3 had that great Omni Trio radio channel. Remember the DNB tracks in Unreal Tournament? Facing Worlds, such good times, better times. The world was more free, less gloom and doom. People seemed to just love each other. That was before you had to hate men if you were a woman and hate wh:tes if you were black and the other way around and so on. The 4-5 of us spent most of the summers together, playing football, going to the beach, playing games on LAN, talking until early morning while listening to DNB, watching Dragon Ball, lmao. Great childhood. I probably grew up in the best time in human history. I'm thankful for that. We were poor, but that doesn't matter. The real poverty is what kids have nowadays: brand sneakers and iPhones, but no friendship, parents, love or community.

One of the most relatable comments I've read in a long time! Please hold on to those memories! I also feel like I grew up in the best era that this world will ever know. I had a carefree childhood full of imagination, curiosity and playing outside with friends without a mobile device tethered to my hip. Catching the bus to the mall on the weekends, buying Electronic Gaming Monthly and Gamepro magazines at Waldenbooks or B. Dalton. Spending hours at the arcade during a time where the better experiences of those games were coming home thanks to the 16-bit revolution! Running Doom and Duke Nukem on a 486 with Windows 3.11/Dos 6.22, having a U.S. Robotics Sporster 14.4Kbps modem to dial-up the Internet. I didn't partake in any LAN parties, but my older brother did. I had an Xband for the SNES that I purchased from Blockbuster that allowed me to play others in Mortal Kombat 3 and Killer Instinct over dial-up! Discovering a love for Jungle and DnB after already having major love for electronic music with bass tapes by artists such as Dynamix II, Magic Mike and Techmaster P.E.B. I felt like my childhood had the best Saturday morning cartoon lineup and the messages of most of these shows were positive. Then it was replaced by stupid animal shows because parents across the country felt we needed more educational content for our Saturday mornings. Bummer! Everything just felt right with the world back then. Truly a magical time that will never be duplicated again.

This is the sound of my youth. My dad brought home some Good Looking Records stuff around ‘96 when l was 11, and l instantly recognized this sound on a soul level and it layed out the foundation of my musical life. Back in the days I tried to get my friends to listen to it, but they never really appreciated it the way l did, so l had it mostly for my self, always wondering how come most people would prefer some shitty mainstream crap music over something like this. Used to spend most of my weekends (and hard earned money) in a record store in Copenhagen called LOUD Music, always searching for the latest in atmospheric d&b music and other related genres. Still have most of these records today, including most of the Good Looking back catalogue and still coming back to it every now and then, since IMO nothing has ever since surpassed the creativity and feeling that is embedded within this golden era music. I can sincerely say that this particular music has been like a life long partner to me, and has been a positive force throughout my life to this day. Countless of my life memories are linked to this music. Well, just wanted to share my own story around this evergreen music, l’m sure others here can relate. Thanks for the upload!

I feel very lucky that I lived thru the 90ies Electronic music scene...and in Berlin, Germany. Love Parade, Mayday Raves, Tresor etc. it was incredible...but thanks to a Radio show that usually played Techno/Trance I got infected by DnB...and I slowly progressed away from the 4th to the floor TR909 type Drum stuff towards UK DnB. When Goldie released his Timeless LP and the first Platinum breakz came out I was literally converted with no turning back. At the time Berlin didn't have much DnB clubs...I only knew the Jungle mania which then became the Icon Club...later the WmF had it's incredible Hard:Edged DnB nights....I got to see Kemistry and Storm, Dillinja and Lemon D, Peshay, Dom&Roland, Source Direct and many others of the greats... My first compilation thru (besides the Platinum breakz) was called "Atmospheric Drum&Bass Vol 1" by Millennium Records...and it was literally my musical Bible... intelligent drum&bass is my absolute favorite style...the producers put much emotion, synth work, tricky break editing, sub basses and sometimes even melodic elements into the sound...it literally beams me back to a time that now feels like a different life... beautiful summers in Spain Mallorca, dancing at outside DnB events at the WmF, women and just exploring the city with this style of music in my discman. I'm forever thankful that I always preferred electronic music and synth sounds....I highly recommend the Atmospheric Drum & Bass compilations 1 thru 4...A Journey into Drum & Bass...and of course the works of Moving Shadow Rec, Reinforced Rec, Prototype Rec, Good Looking Rec...

This album reminds me of playing an older gran turismo game just cruising on an endurance track for a while- laps ahead of everybody else. Admiring every curve of the track, the scenery... weird how music does all that to our brains.

I'm aware of trends, time, influences, mashing genres I've been listening to from earley 90's. But that doesnt make change, there are distinctive and measurable differences. It's not question that many subgenres exists and when they emerged. It's about essential difference dnb/jungle. And atmospheric, intelligent, dark are "flavors" not esences. It's not about semantic it's about syntax. Just like two words can sound similar if there is difference in spelling they can be distinguished even without listening. And there fore, because there are distingushable differences in syntactic patterns, no mather how small, it's not the same thing. And wtf is intelligent music? buzzword used across many genres for non 4/4 music with slower tempo. Intelligence is property of beings, not property of anything created using it. And how then we should call classical music? It's by many magnitudes more complex and layered than any contemporary music. Same BS prefix used by recycled genres by non creative people.

1994-2000 When I was a Young Brat, Clubbing, Fkng, Travel the World.. Now I’m a old Brat. What’s left? My love to Electronic Music…My First Big Love…

These were the best times in the world of electronic music

The soundtrack of my youth in the 90s and 2000s ( in my early 20s).....what a beautiful experience it was walking down the neighborhood of San Francisco.....like a magic carpet ride, free of worries.

the fact that this sound is completely new to me at nearly 30 years of age makes me so excited to keep discovering "new" music that inspires this amazing feeling throughout the rest of my life

The golden era of Drum 'n Bass Techno. So much ambience, culture and influence. This is the world waking up to itself and all the wonderful possibilities.

feeling smarter with every drum kick...... whom listening in 2o21? i gotta know! for me, uh ya its an instant like, dawg ;) who up?

My father was a DJ so I grew up listening to all sorts of different edm genres, house and jungle are my favorites. I’m glad I was blessed with the ears to appreciate such wonderful layers of sound

I gotta get this off my chest. I've been a huge fan of intelligent/atmospheric/ambient/all that DnB for a few years now. Never had anyone around during childhood to show me this music, but it still reminds me of childhood like nothing else. Reminds me of looking deep into the blue sky while day dreaming as a child. Anyway, I recently attended my first DnB show, it was LTJ Bukem and damn, it was anticlimactic. Bukem got me into this style of music, but the only stuff he played was new age. Not one bit of atmospheric. Never got that itch, itched. I thought if there was anyone that would be still playing it live at a shows, it would be Bukem. I know Bukem wasn't on this mix, but I figured I'd spill, you guys understand.

This really does capture a certain time and headspace. These sounds were very important to me in the formative years. It felt like my secret music. When pop punk was the sound of my area I would retreat to this and IDM.

nice way to frame it.

My late uncle introduced me to Origin Unknown, Hidden Agenda etc back in the late 90's. He had many mental health issues & it helped him escape them. As some ADHD fuelled kid, I found my place with techno, breakbeat, hardcore Prodigy vibes. My acne years pushed me into ridiculous Skrillex noises & Trap music. Since then I've rekindled my love for '90s "Intelligent DnB," which now serves productive rhythm for them 8 hour work shifts & lazy gaming sessions. My uncle passed following a life of alcohol & class A's a few months back. He would have appreciated this playlist. Thanks for rekindling memories!

The catalyst of my love for electro music was drum and bass. Long live the golden era

I just feel a strong nostalgia for my childhood. My space dreams from it. My first impression of Moon. Dark mystey clouds at evening. First love and young parents. And that music, it's kinda time machine for feelings. Sleepy joyful melancholy, longing for times that gone.

not sure why, but this soothes my brain in just the right way to help me sleep

I can't wait to listen to this at work in the morning with some fresh squeezed oj.

Excellent compilation. Nowadays, most of this would likely be classified in the "Liquid" sub-genre of Drum 'n Bass. For those who think, "they don't make 'em like this anymore", I'd say to you the Liquid Drum 'n Bass community is still very much alive.

true but nearly all liquid dnb isn't the same as this. i think it's easy to distinguish between the 2 genres as they give off a different vibe, like if i was to listen to a dnb tune i could immediately tell whether it's a modern liquid dnb one or something from 20 years ago. i think it's because this is closer to jungle than normal dnb

​@@castbreeder1 The actual channel calls it DnB. To say its NOT DnB is really stretching it. To me and many others, Jungle is has an older less ambient more aggressive, political and Caribbean sound. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_drum_and_bass "Jungle vs. drum and bass Nowadays the difference between jungle (or oldschool jungle) and drum and bass is a common debate within the junglist community. There is no universally accepted semantic distinction between the terms "jungle" and "drum and bass". Some associate "jungle" with older material from the first half of the 1990s (sometimes referred to as "jungle techno"), and see drum and bass as essentially succeeding jungle. Others use jungle as a shorthand for ragga jungle, a specific subgenre within the broader realm of drum and bass. Probably the widest held viewpoint within the scene in London is that the terms are simply synonymous and interchangeable: drum and bass is jungle, and jungle is drum and bass." So according to wiki, this can certainly be called DnB Particularly the stuff after 1995 which most of this is.. Its fine if you call it Jungle, that's up to you but please don't go telling others what it is with such certainty when its just your opinion, particularly when most people in fact would disagree with you.

​@@jonathanbowen3640 nowadays it can be called hot potato by wiki or anyone else, it wouldn't make difference. If you listen you don't need someone to tell which is dnb/jungle. Difference may be small but is very distinctive and obvious. It's not about semantic it's different on syntactic level, so there is no room for opinions. Same shit just like many use house and techno as synonyms More or less political music without lyrics??? wtf Music alone, without lyrics can be used in political purposes like Wagner by Reich. But itself has nothing with politics.

after all those years 25+ its the ooonly music genre that i just cant get enough of it, never tired of hearing and dive into those amen spacy atmospheric breaks and beats.... its just so timeless

Thankyou so much for sharing this. I got into DnB in 1999, and I was actually buying a lot of LGR, GLR, Fokuz, Triple Vision, Moving Shadow etc at the time, but the music was really blowing up at the time and going in so many different directions that I really didnt delve back into the past (too much). The last several years Ive been absolutely falling in love with the music from this era. I can't understand how people felt like the music had "progressed" from this sound 🤷🏻‍♂️ This is pure heaven and I dont think anything I had heard before or since even comes close. The depth of earth connection in this earliest decade of Drum and Bass is astounding... the vibrational frequencies are incredible and the use of the Amen, Smasher and other such break beats is fucking genius ! Im currently stockpiling absolutely everything I can in digital format (because I just cant afford records anymore 😔) but I will be starting to play This at future bush doofs as I know this will resonate SO much with the people there. its really time to bring people back into mother earths warm and generous embrace ❤️🙏🏻🤯👌 again, thankyou so much.

What a collection of tracks. Each of these, even in isolation is excellent proof that this was the golden era of dnb

this is epic! Drum and Bass, even with its high BPM is so smooth it can be chilled out too!

I first came across The Silence by Future Engineers in 2018 when I first started uni and just fell in love with it. It's what first got me into records in the first place.

Man, the Invisible Man -- The Bell Tune track is just unreal good on my speakers. I love this music. Great mix. Thank you.

Luscious selection of atmospheric and intelligent drum & bass gems. I used to be called pretentious for labelling music as "intelligent" - but it was deep and thought provoking as opposed to the commercial dance music of the time. I am in my late 40s now, but I would know most of these tracks and have quite a few of them on various CD compilations. Such tracks are scattered across CDs and digital compilations these days so it is nice to have them pulled together in one place!
