Drum and bass and junglist music is my fave of all time.

The amen break speaks to me for some reason.
It is my favourite set of beats . ....ever. Freaking love it!!!!!

I even Did a track called darkside using it.

I wonder if they knew what they started, would they still have done it  .... I wouldn't (sorry T ) ..... it's a nice beat tho ! just that none of the tunes that used the sample spoke to me at all !!!

I'll run and hide for a while now

I agree that the avant guard stuff is shite ....
Whitman sucks.


U.k apache is amazing though!

That was fascinating.

I had no idea that I had been listening to the same break for the last 25 years in so many pieces of music.

He got a bit dull in the last few minutes tho.  Kind of like a good undergrad essay that cant find a pithy conclusion.  Or, a good song that cant find its end.  He should have played us out with the Amen break on repeat and faded out.
