Ed Rush and Optical are fucking LEGENDS !!! It was their late 90's jungle that made me fall in love with DnB. If you are not familiar with their early Prototype Recordings stuff do yourself a favor and look it up.
Only just got into Optical last year but ive liked Ed since i was a lot younger. I think ive heard some of their earlier stuff but im going to listen to your advice and have a listen to some prototype stuff in a bit. Merry Christmas and New Year😊
Fuck yassss!!! I miss the renegade drum and bass parties!!! South Florida, Tampa 93-09-ishhh…. Walking into a party and picking up a “tone” leading you to the back of some tent in a corner
turning 48 and remember when jungle / dnb first hit Toronto, Canada. We had some pretty amazing club nights and parties back in the 90s. So many UK DJs would roll through and tear it up. These days it needs to be dnb or techno for me to stay up past midnight lol.
The thing I love most is the old tunes still work with the new tunes and it's all variations on a theme they're dreaming up as we all go along for the ride.
Excellently articulated, spot on mate. Their music is a testament to the fact that the early Virus sound is not only relevant but have stood the test of time.
Genuinely shocked to see Optical in his backwards hat and Hawaiian shirt, white beard, the gut!! Looks like a dad! I know.. time moves on, we all get older... I'm heading in the same direction as Optical, close behind lol. Just a little taken aback this time. I have a major fondness for both, own tons of their releases on vinyl and for some crazy-ass reason I was able to hang out with them when they played the little old Club Skyline (see footage of Skyline from another night on my channel) in Philly in the mid 90's. They were drunk out of their minds and I was still in high school. But the scene there, everyone was always so nice and supportive.
Was just going to score mid 90s - liked club drugs b4 music- later 90s was at 4 weekly DnB party's per week while in college. Philly massive! Fluid rip!
Saw Ed Rush & Optical at Nocturnal 2019 for the first time. Little did I know I was watching two of the greatest neurofunk/jungle DJ’s of all time throw down. Ever since I’ve always tried to catch one of their sets when I could, despite being the youngest person in the crowd by 10-15+ years. Wish I grew up during the height of the neurofunk era 😢😢
I wondered what the proclaimers were upto! I would walk 500 miles to see Ed Rush & Optical! Watching windows remix by ed rush & optical still in my all top 10 tunes! respect!
yes Mr Optical for dropping Thunderball around 05:00.... I was just thinking the other day how wicked this tune is and how I haven't heard it in tiiiiiiiime.. whole set is fire but the nods to the past are special for us old heads
Remember giving hand to Ed rush and optical in Custard Factory in Birmingham in 2009 over the mixing table to thank them for such massive experience of me being deaf 😂🎉 what a perfect party which I never experienced again 😢 big ups these guys WHAT A LEGENDS !!!
what a needed refreshment! 2024 and after all these years they handled down DNB once again, wrapped it nicely with skill and radiated again long passed vibe of real drum n bass!
An absolute masterpiece! As the set is soaked, the track list is put together. Unbelievable and from this live DJ set all those who buy only hits and think about it should be. that they are a DJ. Nothing but shit! This is a gem, a gem!! Keep it up guys. That sound!! My goodness!! Great!
When I was chatting with Audio a few months back he told me to watch out for Ed Rush's production, said he has some insanely good music in the bag...Audio always comes with the truth....not to mention the bangers he has as well. Big up the Virus lads!

Optical like a drunk Dad at a wedding. Audios’ production lately has gone up another level. Thankful for these people 😊
Got to love Optical's moves, cute as f*ck :D
xd
He's always so funny?)
Time to hang it up, optical. Having trouble beatmatching, now.
so say it to his face? @@KnowledgeMotorsport

Yeah bruh I got all them tunes on vinyl. All the o.g. No u-turns recordings are also a must. Peep Saigon also.
Alien Girl started it all for me…❤❤❤
The Raven was my first intro and why I fell in love with dnb !!
Some of Chameleon is fuckin killa
11:00 is wild, what a remix
What's the track name please ??
Audio - Headroom (VIP) Audio 2023-2024 edit!
@@Japex23423 hey sorry 11 months later, but i cant find this exact remix
I've been listening to Ed Rush for probably 26 years, figure I got into the DnB scene back in 98
Fuck yassss!!! I miss the renegade drum and bass parties!!! South Florida, Tampa 93-09-ishhh…. Walking into a party and picking up a “tone” leading you to the back of some tent in a corner
Ed Rush is now the absolute Godfather of the whole movement, isn't he? I think he is
Really great set from the 3 by the way, I wish I was here
Been killing it since early 90s
I think to have this conversation u need the man like DJ Trace as well as Ed rush long time collaborator Optical!!
I have such fond memories listening to Ed Rush and Optical going back 20+ years. Keep it going guys.
48 here , I lived through the birth of jungle , loving to hear its so huge .
Haha, same here, I'm 47.
Hello, and I ' am 43. I like it

11:00 That Headroom VIPVIP/edit/remix is LETHAL
May be you knows what is the track on 30:32 ?
Finalix - Resonance (Audio remix) @@latviatoday2907
That headroom remix is awful, a classic ruined
This set is epic really needs a track list
That look on Ed's face @ 35 min: 43 sec says it all, banging, top class DnB!!! 😁 DnB Forever, greeting from South Africa.
SOOO glad these guys are still doing the thing

u know 😎
Excellently articulated, spot on mate. Their music is a testament to the fact that the early Virus sound is not only relevant but have stood the test of time.
Drum and Bass: The sound of the future, est. some 30 years ago.
I was gonna say this "neuro" sounds like what I knew as techstep. I've loved Ed Rush and Optical since the late 90's
@blkmjk666 it is. They are the fathers to everyone's sound who produces neuro funk today.
Neuro legends 🔥 the energy 🔥 gotta love Opticals dance moves and Rymetyme mc'ing 🖤
yes!
I thought I am the only one who adores Optical's moves behind the decks ha ha, absolutely brilliant
Tech step.
Teebee screw facing in the background the whole time 😂😂 legend
Missing thats great set) Love it< thank you) Happy 2025 =)
ED RUSH & OPTICAL - Invisible & deadly!
Ed's face at 1:02:46
and can anyone tell what that tune is around that timemark? It's an absolute banger shazaam can't find. Unreleased future classic?
It's Audio - Solar Ascending if anyone's wondering :)
@@iKipCarry Thank you!! What a massive banger WTF!!!
Легендарные легендары. В 2000ых мы росли на их треках и впитывали у них идеи, чтобы создавать свою музыку
Верно
Да уж Анрэ, отцы-огурцы наваливают как надо, что в 2000-х, что счас....

Big ups Philly massive. Karl K, Starchild......

The heroes of my youth !!
These haters saying Optical mixed bad have never heard an oldschool mix in their life. Dirty mixing is making a resurgence!
The people are dancing to him so he's doing fine.

I was like…. Whattttttt
Haha I love hearing a golden oldie dropped unexpectedly
Optical drops this most sets I've seen them play live.
Ed Rush absolute smashing. Definitely Legend and the Godfather. Now to get him with Andy C for a set. What a banger that would be!
Remember giving hand to Ed rush and optical in Custard Factory in Birmingham in 2009 over the mixing table to thank them for such massive experience of me being deaf 😂🎉 what a perfect party which I never experienced again 😢 big ups these guys WHAT A LEGENDS !!!
