    This track is nothing short of amazing, it is one of best tracks released by Aphrodite and one of the best jungle tracks period. Big Booyaa!

    OMG. My neighbor (John) in the wherehouse I was living in '95 LOVED this track. Actually, he didn't - he used to bang on the walls when my roommate and I would come home at 3am and put it on. Ugh. Sorry John...BOOYAA!

    Sick breakbeat editing. The Amiga, Octamed and the Akai ruled back then!

      I think though for this one, it was 2 OctaMED's midi synced up. he/they didn't get an akai s1000 (or whatever model) until about 1995, so the first 3 or 4 amazon II EP's I THINK are 2 OctaMEDs, put into a desk and beefed up.

    • @DJAphrodite
      @DJAphrodite  6 років тому +27

      I used rolls and long fills a few times in tunes before this one I think. I think my rolls could sometimes be more elaborate than those by other producers at the time.

    Is this the original? I only ask because the original version on the Jungle Mania 2 Album has the loops in the intro slightly longer as tho in this they are gated or clipped off? I dont mean the end of the tune shortened but the actual break loops in the intro. @DJ Aphrodite ? cheers.

    • @DJAphrodite
      @DJAphrodite  4 роки тому +4

      Yes this is the original. I actually saw on some old disks I was going through this weekend that I did special versions for compilations. I did this with a few tracks around the time. Jungle Massive and Jungle Renegades I did VIPs of tracks.

      KONlNG did you have it on a mix tape? This featured on Drum and Bass Selection Volume 3 and the way DJ Hype mixed it made it sound like a significantly different intro.
