I thought he would mention Clive Deamer, who played live D&B drums for Roni size Represent band in Bristol at their live gigs over 25 years a go.. He was a monster. There is a very short live cut on the New forms album of his gig drumming. (Mercury music prize winning album) He Also played Drum and bass rhythms on a Radiohead album and trip hop drum breaks for Portishead.
You should put "drum and bass" and "drum'n'bass" somewhere in the description and in the tags (if they're not there already) to try to make sure that people don't miss this video while searching.
This video lesson is more valuable today than ever. Those 32nd licks are more advanced and understandable than any other jungle lesson on the Tube. Love it
those two consecutive 16th-notes on the snare you address at around 11:00 min are a pretty common move in jungle drumming.. for intermediate drummers, it's much easier to sort of 'cheat' and play it hand to hand, like you did (lR), but in the long run, it's a pretty useful technical skill to be able to play that with JUST your left hand (or whichever hand is your snare hand). You know, the kind of snapping motion that's required to pull off a ghost note followed by an accented note. Gives your sound a bit more consistency when that one hihat note isn't missing everytime you do the 'daDAK' thing. After all, we're trying to emulate electronically produced (layered) tracks, so paying attention to little details like that can matter imho. Think about the way these grooves are made in a DAW - multiple (at least two) loops stacked on top of each other. That (at least to me) implies that a drummer trying to emulate this kind of sound should stay away from purely linear stickings/orchestrations as much as possible. Jojo's godlike left-hand skills are a great, albeit EXTREMELY advanced example of this - he pretty much never interrupts his lead hand patterns, no matter what's going on in his snare hand. cheers
Dude, your bass drum on this sounds siiiiiiiiiiiiick! That, and the dryness but punch of that snare is incredible. Very jungle-esqe! Fantastic job as usual man!
I extremely admire your teaching skills. I’ve fully understood this lesson and practiced on every beat successfully and ofc enjoyed the beats that I made. Can’t thank you enough and keep uploading those beautiful videos.
The best instructional drum video I've seen in ages! I loved Photek as it was happening in the 90s and ever since and to get this insight from you now is a true gift. Thank you
Excellent lesson, I enjoyed it and learn a lot. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in that honest and humble way. You don't know how much I've learned from your videos. Regards from Dominican Republic , I'm from Venezuela but I work here as a drummer and I always try to apply what I learn from your lessons. Thanks a lot.
Great Video and great perspective! I always build Jungle Beats off of the Amen Break-- I'm surprised you didn't mention it, where does it fit in compared to the 2 beats you demonstrated? Also, it's worth mentioning that this is also an incredible guide for Producers looking to program realistic, "playable" beats.
yeah, I was honestly a little disappointed that Nate never mentioned the Amen break, and its utter importance to the rise of Jungle /D'n'B. I feel like breaking down the amen break and explaining how producers in the 90's (maybe already in the late 80's) started using a sped up (and often chopped up) version of this isolated drum sample to create these iconic jungle grooves would be a great starting point for any student to get into D'n'B drumming. Just my 2 cents
I was surprised by that too especially when he went into that whole idea of "photek-ing" a beat, which is actually just one of the most common ways jungle producers chop the amen break. Seems like he was moreso talking about the more nerdy, music theory oriented side of "jungle" than the hardcore rave side where literally every song has the amen.
Great vid! PLEASE talk about the amen - It’s a game changing beat by a funk group, adopted by every genre known to man. Let the people know where their favorite music comes from. It would be awesome if you did a whole vid on Amen Brother and it’s magic, or even the winstons and their drummer, or who has incorporated it. I feel like this is an avenue that few drummers have ventured down, and is neglected in the percussion world. Come on Nate! We dnb heads/drummers need you!
The information you present here has been very helpful, especially the breakdown of the Photek stuff. I was wondering why you chose to play the grooves with left hand quarter notes, and not eigth notes? What you play sounds amazing, I was just interested in your thinking.
It ALL starts there. If folks are digging the Photek, be sure to listen to Source Direct. They are (IMO) the true masters of the amen. Snake Style is a perfect place to start :)
Nate, just want to mention you are referring to 32nd notes when they are just 16ths in the transcription, I get the halftime thing, but it is a bit confusing :-)
It's hard to quantify how much further down the D&B rabbit hole JoJo is than, basically everyone else. I used to be into it 20 years ago- Goldie and the like.. Gets' a bit repetitive, but it's a great set of licks to develop.
Clive Deamer from Roni size represent band was an awesome D&B drummer live. Heard him do some long solos at Malcom X centre gig in Bristol in 96, WAS BLOWN AWAY. Goldies Heritage orchestra had two drummers at Wolverhampton gig in 2017, not sure who they were but played a full gig together faultless. Inner city life and Pressure was crazy with live drums. Photek scored drums on that album.
A minute or so in, and no mention of Louie Cole? He inspired me to pick up the Sticks. He was smashing out Jungle and D&B Beats over a Decade ago!

Drum n Bass is different to Jungle.
@@djashjones you didn't get the point
just for the record, hashtags work in comments. #drumandbass #drumnbass #dnb

Nate, I must say your rapport with Drum Nate has really blossomed into something we should all strive for when collaborating with others.
Finally.
This is a video that I have long hoped for but thought would never come.
Be great to get a part 2 some time!
Cheers
apparently wish granted already
"You know who you are" Yeah, thats my drum programming. Thanks for the lesson! :)

I absolutely love using Photeking as a verb. Great lesson.
Came here to say this! 😁
Omni Trio is also a great source for Broken Beats- inspiration, especially "Assassins", "Ocean Driver" and "Renegade Snares".
Dude, your bass drum on this sounds siiiiiiiiiiiiick! That, and the dryness but punch of that snare is incredible. Very jungle-esqe! Fantastic job as usual man!
“Jungle beats”-Amen
❤ for the Photek shout out
thanx for the transcription dude !! you're the best !! my level is not so bad, hope i'll play jungle like you in few weeks, see ya!
Love the Roots rap at the end Nate!!

You've got a great teaching style man - love your videos!
You are Always AMAZING Nate.Thank you for sharing so much with us. Stay Blessed

Nice one, Nate! :) Also, love Zach Danziger.
great video. very helpful. thanks man.

have you heard of luke flowers? cinematic orchestra?
Check out Goldie’s classic jungle lp Timeless (1995 I think). Not only killer beats, but songs
Lazy Afternoon!
Respect

Yeeeees!

Photek is my fav too
Sick. Dan Mayo, Yogev Gabay and Zak Icaza are also great at this
My very first drum kit is coming in the mail soon and I’m already watching jungle tutorials 💀
Time for me to take my next practice session to the jungle!
I think the word for today is "CLEAN". It doesn't matter what you play if it ain't clean!🥁❤
THE REASON I STARTED PLAYING
Awesome thank you! Also hair is on fleek. U should do a full mohawk. U could pull it off me thinks.
Oldskool Jungle to me is Kenny Ken 93 -95, same with Grooverider
This video is long overdue, my friend!
🔥🔥
Yeah!!!!!!
Hi Nate, great lesson 👍🏼👍🏼
Unfortunately, the download link for the transcript doesn't work anymore. Is that fixable? Thanks a lot! 🙏
Litte tiny cake tin snares!
Nate, just want to mention you are referring to 32nd notes when they are just 16ths in the transcription, I get the halftime thing, but it is a bit confusing :-)
JOJO
Question: in the Photek portion, are you using the shoulder of the stick, or is it your hats?
I tought I was the only one to know Mr. Amon Tobin
Yussef Dayes should be there!
👍
Check out London Electricity
what is the name of the full song of the jd beck excerpt?
can you share transcript please!?
Does anybody know where i can find the Guiliana video playing at 0:17 ?
yes to Photek :D
what JD Beck song is this in the intro?
Rá!!!🔥🔥🔥🖖
The first privet you did was basically just my name is mud
I definitely could be tripping, but, is that an Electronic Sound and Percussion t-shirt?
And a Black Coffee Roasting Co sweatshirt?! What!?
What was that Photek song?
I wanna make a whole prog rock opera out of samples from this lesson
Are you familiar with Xploding Plastix?

@@ljt3084 Cool stuff
0:31 can someone tell me the name of this artist? It sounds like he said "Montoven" but I cant find any artists named like that
Amon tobin
😂👍
I highly recommend Anders Meinhardt
SOMEONE BESIDES ME MENTIONED AMON TOBIN! YES.
"you know who you are" - 90% of your subscribers LOL!!!
That ouch moment 😂
Speak for yourself!(and me)
Guilty...
90% of people want to be Fred Durst, FACT
@@aakkoin LOL!!!
photack??
Please, URGENT 0:13 Richard Spaven song name PLSpls
You found it yet? I can’t find it
The Hidden Camera
Photek. Never made a shit tune! 👊👊👊
I'm still not sold on vented/holed hi-hats. Some sound good, most sound like dog water. It's a big grey area.
Agreed they seem like a fad and I'd never get them as a main hi hat
yo whats the photek song at 0:36???
Think it’s seven samurai
Akai s1100 is the way
Source Direct fans, rise up !
Masters of the amen
I had no idea this is what they were called. LOL
They call that jungle beat?
love you..dont rap though...great vid!
Always rap
How to spell fotak?
Photek
