How to make Jungle from the 90s

If you’re a music producer and this reaches you, please comment so it doesn’t get lost on the non music type of ‘jungle’ videos 😂 It’s been lovely connecting with you all and I appreciate this community that’s forming here so much <3 Thank you for your support!

I’m a 40 yr old mom. As a teen in the late 90s rave scene I wanted to learn this but didn’t even have internet then. Knew some djs at 16 but they were all older guys. So glad I found this and maybe I’ll pick up a new hobby. Nice that you included the Human Traffic scene 😄

bro's got the visuals, bros got the knowledge, bros got the music, bros got my sub

The whole aesthetic of this vid with the retro windows 95 look is an incredible vibe. That paper clip and butterflies gave me serious nostalgia. Absolute quality 👏

i sat down and made music for the first time today purely because of this video lmaooo this is both a "thank you" and a "what have you done"

Now I understand why one day in The Netherlands as a teenager I was playing around with my stereo, picked up a hard to detect AM frequency station from England with what I now know as Jungle, I had never heard of Jungle before and it blew my mind, it was mainly gabber and hardcore trance that was popular in NL. Now I understand what I picked up, it wasn't mainstream radio at all but likely some place perhaps even a ship broadcasting. Amazing. Thanks for sharing, I never would have known.

the editing and your ways of explaining things make your tutorials top tier

50 years old! 1994, jungle arrived in Paris. After all these years, Jungle’s still Massiveeeeeee;)

immediately before "jungle" there was a short lived genre called "ragga" (it lived around 2 years) . This was very similar in retrospect, but was solidly focused on the dub reggae influences and it was only when jungle exploded that people were allowed to step outside the rigid; chopped beats ,dub bass lines, some relentless MC chatting format, adding whatever other elements they wanted (e.g. the synth pads) and finally telling the MCs to shut up and let the music happen sometimes (progressively more & more). Jungle swamped its parent entirely- and Ragga was absorbed wholesale, rather than replaced.

True story: I`ve been in Tokyo for 24 years now and 4 years in I met this bloke from Leeds who was a diehard DnB fan. Showed me some tight shit to open my eyes when I was only spinning pure minimal techno. His name was Chris. He always had the fun. Hence, his nickname was Chris "the Pharmacist". Now that I am much older, and hopefully more mature, seeing Chris "the Scientist" break down more efficiently than the other Chris could have hoped, I am now thinking it was probably the drugs that messed with the comprehension/explanation aspect of it all. It is awesome to see a new generation find musical gold!!

I love seeing young people with genuine passion for stuff made before they were born. Hopefully we'll see a full-on '90s style jungle revival very soon. Great video. 👍

Wow, a music production Tutorial that isn't just a gateway video to a paid sample Pack but an ACTUAL TUTORIAL. AMAZING, THANK YOU!

I really respect the clear reverance and knowledge you have about not just the genre, but the culture that spawned Jungle. Seen a lot of Americans simply just call it "PS1 music" which is where the sound ended up, but totally whitewashes its origins. The fact you were able to put together such a concise tutorial with authentically nostalgic visuals on top is so cool. Mad respect.

That bit about illegal radio stations is incredibly cool, I didn't know Jungle had Deep Lore.

I'm 48 and the nineties were a musical rollercoaster for me. Jungle, Hip-Hop, Techno, Gabber, Grunge, I loved it all. Thanks for this memorylane and high quality video! A sub well earned!

first thought: "My mans got the aesthetic and editing game on lock" "after WW2..." OK WE HAVE A CONTENDER subbed <3

Can't get over how insanely high quality these videos are, keep it up mate

This is so cool. I'm just young enough (born in 1986) to miss the 90s rave and jungle scenes but old enough to remember how this sound influenced video game music and other stuff that was more accessible to me as a kid in the 90s.

Man, I just had this realization that there are entire generations out there who can explore windows 9x as something "new" with the understanding of today's UI and expectations. For a lot of us, going back to win9x would have a nostalgic feeling that I don't think we could separate from.

Man took me right back to 1993, when I was 18, and this sound was fresh, great work!
