This is the tape that turned my interest in DnB into an obsession and forget about all other rooms at a rave. DJs , MCs, tracks and mixing are all 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘 Still get the same feeling listening to it 20 years later!! (damn I’m old lol)
So glad I got to experience this era. Wish more people could have experienced these vibes. Absolute golden era for me. Shabba was in his prime. RIP Skiba Forever.
RIP SKIBADEE always remembered never forgotten much love and respect for all the good times🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I was at this show and many others thank you 🙏 for changing my life for the best. DRUM N BASS forever
This is the best drum n Bass, jungle, darkside ive ever listen to. I listened to that Kind of music til mid 90s. Today not so often but i remember Times, thinking how can someone feel something Bad listen this music and where a mid quality jungle tape was better than any else hd Pop CD. Ed rush and optical set is epic
😎👊🏾 nostaligic AF those days, not a care in the world, everything evolved around the music & what the next rave you was going to!! tape packs got rinsed everywhere you went!! absolutely siiick set by Ed & optical. Thankyou Skibba D 🙏🏾💙🙏🏾
@@profyle766u know the one mate, moshed up to the eye balls and can't wait for the next one,,how fuckin lucky where we to have lived through that mate, it was the fuckin best
Guy was a gent! Always had time for ravers. Had many a chat back stage. I always got a fist bump on sight. What a talent... He was the natural continuation from Stevie Hyper D... ❤
Aaahh Rex! My teenage home every weekend! BEST venue IMO!! Got away with so much there. Always ended up on stage no matter what rave. Biggg up billy (rip) n rest in paradise skibz ❤️
😎👊🏾Yes bluud... nostaligic AF those days, not a care in the world, everything evolved around the music & what the next rave you was gonna reach too!! tape packs got rinsed everywhere you went!! absolutely siiick set by Ed & optical. Thankyou Skibba D 🙏🏾💙🙏🏾
We miss you Skiba, gave us the best memories rave after rave and the only MC (along with Fearless) who came close to the GOAT Hyper D imho. Will always feel privileged to have seen the best MCs do thier thing, the 90s were a blessing, honestly have seen some decent dnb mcs but nothing to compare to the likes of skiba and Hyper.. Rest In Peace ❤
Still got few of these on vinyl feel sorry for people don't even know these tunes exist opening tune is 🔥🔥🔥 rymetyme and trace!!! Move V.I.P. Mix what a fwwwaaarrkkkkkiiiiinngggg TUNE!!! Imagine people never heard that! Was these artist like ed rush, goldie, dj hype made me wanna mix vinyl 💯🔥
This is probably my favorite drum and bass set ever the eksman dj wild child is a close second I have listened to this set off an on for probably 20 years it was awesome back then and still killer today would love to read about someone who was at this party could describe the atmosphere or how skinadee shabba and ic3 looked qnd sounded inside.
I was there but off my nut so recollection of the actual sets is too hazy lol - I met a girl there that I dated for a few months and had to get the tape pack after to be able to fully appreciate the actual sets. The Darren Jay set with Shabba and IC3 is superb (sadly has Five-0 on it as well tho which spoils it a bit with him chatting shit)
Yes this is gold! Shabas favorite line is raise up the mic 🤣..never fails on every set. That mix of future cut and the pulse is something else. Sound like Ed took over the second half 🙃
Nah it’s not is it? I’ve been trying to find an Ed rush optical one nation valentines special set for ages! And my mates all went, woulda been 05’ 06’ I don’t think this is the set tho lol :(

Ah man. Can't believe it. Rip skiba
RIP
Glad I got to see him
And Hyper D back in the day
the best to ever do it
Game changerz. Ain't saying anything else. Rip to 2 legends of dnb. It ain't music... Almost a religion!!
So sad to see such original talent go, rip to the dnb goat 🐐
What an absolute beast of a set, Shabba was immense in this era. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Best era. Drum and bass post jungle era was just untouchable. The days of Virus, ram, hardware, metalheadz.
The whole scene was totally different them days
when the music sped up a bit around 98/99 - around 96/97 a lot of it was too slow
💯💯💯
💯💯💯💯💯
For real and ya nah lie
And people thought we would grow out of this music!!! Fuck that
Just came here to listen again.. RIP Skibadee 😢
This is the tape that turned my interest in DnB into an obsession and forget about all other rooms at a rave.

Still gives me goose bumps too!...the russssh!🙌🏽🔥💣🔊🔊🔊

Yep getting old is shit!!!
