I think somebody should make a movie and use this song in it. You know, it's something like a main theme, using dubsteb parts in club/driving scenes, and vocals part (1:38) on sad/happy scenes. What do you think about it?
Almost 4am in bed, this song came to mind. After over 12 years, it's still great. I went through so many things since this song was released. I know a lot of you guys as well. It's over a decade later and I hope you guys are doing great.
Over a decade ago, this was my favorite song. This is 2022, still my favorite song. And I agree with NoCopyrightSounds, most iconic dubstep track of all time
Do what ever you want. This pic of me was at Mt Eden 2008 at the Hawthoren Theater Portland Oregon. 9/26/08 some times I listen to it and a dark sadness overwhelms me, other times i remember being there happy. They sprayed every one in the front with water bottles. I have a video of looking around everyone enjoyed it.
"what would you do if I kissed you what would you do if I held your hand and laid you down would you find me all familiar to hold you i like to hold you sometime I like you to need me one time I like to hold you sometime" when I found this song in 2009 at 18, I had no idea what these lyrics meant. now its 2020 and I'm 28, ive been thru hell. love and lost and loved again, had a child.... I can now appreciate this... its making me cry... anyone else going thru depression.... there will be a better day ahead.... I'll come back on a better, I promise! 3/8/2020
Cuz back in 2008 they distorted the lyrics on purpose so they don't have to get a copyright lawsuit on them for using it as a sample. Later in 2012 they got enough money to buy the right to use the sample and made the song how they really intentionally wanted to in the first place, which is this version. More clean and clear base compared to the original song which has low quality baselines and the wubwub is pretty terrible in sound quality.
This song was used as a memorial cover song for a video for my uncle after he passed away. He was a longboarder and loved to race. This song hits a soft place for me
@isaacbeauchem4867 friend I have no idea. Maybe the original is out of rights or something. Saw it on my Playlist and tried to play it. 2 seconds in it stopped and disappeared
@@ABadCheetah just came here wondering wtf happened after seeing it greyed out in my playlist. Hopefully it comes back, I had a few other songs grey out in my other lists and they randomly came back one day so im crossing my fingers lmao
Still absolutely a banger in 2024. Some amazing memories. Will always be the pinnacle of dub, and I’ll always remind people this is music from NEW ZEALAND ❤❤❤❤
Mt Eden Official Let's have a game with happy and sad music. When you hear the happy music, play your rhythm sticks. Or clap, just as you did before. Like this!
This song truly makes memories. It is truly my favorite dubstep song ever. I am speechless. I guess I can say nothing but thank u for forming memories for ppl. U r a really great artist who has made his way into thousands of peoples happy thoughts. Thnx mt eden
Still it needs remixing.. The main wobble synth lacks grit in the high frequencies, just some 10 - 20khz boost and some distortion would make the song even better imo
I wanna cry. This is the first Dubstep song I've ever heard. And the emotions are flying everywhere, I don't know what to feel. Throwback to the good old days
The original version of this song was the first dubstep song I've ever listened too when I was in 4th grade. Now in ninth grade listening to this version makes me smile ear to ear. Didn't change that much but still noticed a difference. I love it
how does that work.. the original song came out like two years ago.. idk how your school system works, but i dont think you skipped two years? from Fourth grade->ninth grade? Over a span of two years? You would be in sixth then..right?
Ludwig Braaten "Finally after FIVE LONG YEARS. Mt Eden finally releases a recreated version of 'Sierra Leone' featuring vocals from Freshly Ground via Ultra Records. The Sierra Leone EP features the Original Mix, along with three remixes from Ta-Ku, Araabmuzik and Tommy Sunshine & Live City." Pays to read the description.
It is impossible not to get the civil war and the diamond business in Sierra Leone before your eyes while listening to this song if you're aware of the country's history. Amazing work.
me and my mate used to thrash dubstep in year 9-11 back in 2009 onwards. Going camping with friends getting drunk in the summer listening to dubstep. This was probably the happiest time of my life. Will always cherish this nostalgia.
original songs was really quality audio and they boosted the bass and left the higher frequencies like the treble super low. This song you can hear both if you got the equipment to actually hear the full range of frequencies this song has. IE 4 coaxial speakers with mid woofers and a big tweeter dome and two 12 inch subs in the trunk of a car this song is fucking amazing due to its high quality of the remastered version.
This song reminds me of the good ole days when my bestfriend and I discovered dubstep. Hes no longer here and I always think of him when I here this song. May he rest in peace 💙
Hope you're doing good, my friend. This song brings back soooo many memories mostly all good, but yes, some of friends who are no longer here. Stay strong Auerra K.
This music saved my life so many years ago. When i was broken and had no where to go, i turned my pain into training. The drive to push through the pain of training was given to me by this song on a loop for hours. I could push through the pain and be reborn as a new person. New life, new destination, new demons to conquer.
First ever Dubstep/Drum and bass style song I ever listened too and still my favourite all these years later. Thank you for joehands0me for introducing it to me.
I'm still partial to the original guys... But the sound quality is amazing... :/ inb4 haters, I love the original and in no way am talking crap about this. Just not my fav remake.
The most iconic dubstep track of all time..
NoCopyrightSounds ah yes. It truly is a great masterpiece.
brings back so many memories doesn't it
I think somebody should make a movie and use this song in it. You know, it's something like a main theme, using dubsteb parts in club/driving scenes, and vocals part (1:38) on sad/happy scenes. What do you think about it?

Honestly like the beginner tracks could jam out all night lol

I've got hard time to found this song😀😀😀 luckily I can humm and google was able to found it
Same for me right now ❤❤❤
We want the original back on Spotify!
I heard a version last night at the climbing gym, I don't think it was the original tho
Why can’t the original track be found anywhere? I can’t find it?
I’m crying 😭
Why I'm here!
"lets make a song with happy and sad music"
I miss that part...
when you hear the happy music, play your rhythm stick or clap...like this
Where is that part?
@@MayankSingh-zk1dq Its only in the original
This song got me a $120 ticket back in 2011 for a noise issue. I laughed the whole time, totally worth it.

Can you say "I can't hear you?"

Woooww and to think i was here nine years agao when this was uploaded
The fuckin' memories.
Still solid as fuck.
Used to listen to this track 24/7 while playing MW2.
jordnot Oh sorry, didn't know why it was created for or why it was called Sierra Leone since release. I only found it on montages.
jordnot Yeah also I don't mean no disrespect but IDK what's Sierra Leone is it a name of a revolution or a country?
+jordnot Pretty sure it's a state in Africa, Sought.
I should have googled.... Sorry for my mistake. And just so you know i'm from the Baltic States, not the US.
+TyrokAS
State:
"A nation or territory considered as an organized political community under one government."
:)
This song makes me think a lot, and I don't know if I should smile or cry...
Do what ever you want. This pic of me was at Mt Eden 2008 at the Hawthoren Theater Portland Oregon. 9/26/08 some times I listen to it and a dark sadness overwhelms me, other times i remember being there happy. They sprayed every one in the front with water bottles. I have a video of looking around everyone enjoyed it.
do both, thats what i do, i smile and cry because this brings so good memories back, its happy cry and happy smile :)
Idk this song gets me motivated to change for the better
Both
It's a good mix of hapines and sadness
"what would you do if I kissed you
what would you do if I held your hand and laid you down
would you find me all familiar to hold you
i like to hold you sometime
I like you to need me one time
I like to hold you sometime"
when I found this song in 2009 at 18, I had no idea what these lyrics meant. now its 2020 and I'm 28, ive been thru hell. love and lost and loved again, had a child.... I can now appreciate this... its making me cry...
anyone else going thru depression.... there will be a better day ahead.... I'll come back on a better, I promise!

kids be like "old school" ,
ye gud olde days
ye gud olde ayes
but this is old school lol wtf
@@csivaszregallakatos8738 oldschool is 90s, maybe 2000s.. a track released in 2010s isn't oldschool!
@@Elite-999 i mean the sound design is totally old school
@@csivaszregallakatos8738 just listen the Bristol dubstep from the early 2000, you'll understand what old school is.
this song lit my passion for electronic music, such a masterpiece.,
Jimmy Steve Jack yeah me too braj! Back in 2010.
..I agree, itz a great flow. I love the slow wub wubz n scratch mixin.
Here we are all, coming back again, aged but still the same souls. the memories still holding on with this masterpiece
2022 and I'm happy I still remember this name such a classic always gives me goosebumps

The beginning of the dubstep era in my life. Time flies
Same I feel so old listening to this, I was in middle school
10 years later me still here thanks MT EDEN for the music 🎶 🎵 💜
dubbest of steps
Sierra Leone was the first dubstep track I ever heard, and I immediately fell in love with it! And this is EPIC!
my first DubStep track was 16bit PCP , and Sierra Leone was my first custom ringtone :)
Before dubstep became just a bunch of noise..
believe it or not, all those noises were actually pretty good for stimulating your Pineal gland.
LMAO 2019
yup because this isn't just a bunch of noise
@@211darthreven443 wtf
all dubstep all music is bunch of noise my fam , out of here with that entitlement
2021 im here
Came here because I can't find this version on Spotify. Just some other shit remixes. I want this 🥺❤️ it takes me back to the good old days!
2 months later and I'm here for the same reason. Bring back this version 😭
who still listens to this to get some nostalgic feelings?
Why is this not on Spotify anymore?
Im so sad that this isnt on spotify anymore
wat
Shout out to pwad beatbox
This proves New Zealand knows how to do dubstep right
not like the USA who has to water it down, so they think there special
And remember UK invented Dubstep.
don't worry i`m with any country with the union jack
Cool cool :)
DUBSTEP 4EVAR Hawaii, is apart of the US and it has the Union Jack as well.
Sneaky, Sneaky :)
The mix sounds different! >:(

I still have no idea why it was removed from Spotify but we need that back expeditiously

I wanna cry. This is the first Dubstep song I've ever heard. And the emotions are flying everywhere, I don't know what to feel.
Throwback to the good old days
blast from the past
The quality and content is crystal, but I think the original is better being that it was the first dubstep song I listened to
10 year of MT Eden 👈 project 👉 keep going until the end (still love dubstep )
2023 and still giving those goosebumps 👌🏻😍
The original version of this song was the first dubstep song I've ever listened too when I was in 4th grade. Now in ninth grade listening to this version makes me smile ear to ear. Didn't change that much but still noticed a difference. I love it

N now hopefully u graduate hs by now?

Why is this song making me sad?
+Sapplejuice Because it's supposed to be dedicated for the civil war that happened in Sierra Leone.
+Dany G. why did something bad happened to womens?
+Elfen Lied Not just women in particular but citizens as a whole.
You can read about it here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_Leone_Civil_War
+Elfen Lied recruited chrildren solldiers, killed and most likeky rape the women in no specific order.
Ooh what happend to humanity 😡😡😑
This song started Dubstep kingdom
man the memories coming from this song running home in the forth grade with my friends listening to this song mann good times
So you are 14 or 15?
yup 15
Max Za write a book or short story!!!
why should i do that
Max Za It was quite an out of place suggestion to be honest, no idea where that guy got that idea.
OMG I'm crying 😌it's the best Dubstep I've ever heard
1:41 that woman part is so good
Check out the original version By Freshly Ground, you'll be blown away just like this song
I heard this song a while back but after watching Elysium I was like dayum

Holy shit that brang back memories I didn't know I had
2024 Still Alive
Thousand eargasms in 5 minutes !
and people still have the cheek to say dubstep isnt real music
i saw your comment on the other video. lawl internet.
Not all of it, no.
it isnt it noises, but this is a good song
see here is where i disagree, when you think about it, a bass line is a noise, but an acoustic guitar on its own is still just a noise?
***** i dont get it
It is impossible not to get the civil war and the diamond business in Sierra Leone before your eyes while listening to this song if you're aware of the country's history.
Amazing work.
Cod 4 Quickscope
this is best of all dubstep songs ever

wow, this one at this channel has REALLY good quality
Remaster
and its the original owners of the song
As far as I remember
It was 240
This is a complete remake of the original. If you listen closely you'll see they're quite different.
Of course. Original was uploaded way back in 2011 when youtube didn't have the high quality settings yet.
I'm sorry guys but the original cut sounds better.
yeee, I think it's just because we're used to the original, if this was the original then we'd prefer this
But, if this was the original, and they released the other, I would still like the other. But if they only released this, then of course.
original songs was really quality audio and they boosted the bass and left the higher frequencies like the treble super low. This song you can hear both if you got the equipment to actually hear the full range of frequencies this song has. IE 4 coaxial speakers with mid woofers and a big tweeter dome and two 12 inch subs in the trunk of a car this song is fucking amazing due to its high quality of the remastered version.
