    My thanks to Steve McQueen, through him, we have Kunta Kinte playing through on prime time BBC 1. Amazing. Who could've imagined that happening forty years ago? Beautiful film, beautiful gift.

      I remember we used to lose it to this tune back in the day not dissimilar to the scenes in Small Axe but if I’m honest no one was rolling around on the floor. The Mad Professor remix was huge too. Yeah who would have thought it 40 years ago.

    I was at Club Noreik, when Jah Shaka played this brand new against Coxsone & Fatman !
    The club was rammed & went into a frenzy.
    He played 3 or 4 cuts of it.
    He also dropped Human Cargo - Carry Us Beyond & Johnny Clarke - Jah Jah Give Us The Power !
    WHAT A MEMORABLE HISTORY DANCE !! ❤️🔥

      There is a great read in the December Sight and Sound with Steve McQueen being interviewed by David Olusoga. He based the main character on his aunt.

    The most used Jungle sample ever. Sounds great in both roots dub and jungle. Thank you Revolutionaries for creaating this amazing tune.

    I asked Google what is name of that song.Yeah it's coming back to me now, how absolutely fascinating the Jamaican men were when all out "dancing like nobodies watching ". I became the " American Woman". Instead of just Afro American me in my head. I was a foreigner at home. This song made me young again. So glad I watched this.

    An absolute classic and hugely influential on breakbeat / bass music from early rave to hardcore to Jungle / DnB to Dubstep (and I've been there for all of them!) It's been sampled / interpreted for the past 25 (or more) years of UK dance music culture! Big tune!

    This melody springs banging tunes. The Prodigy used it in their track Jericho in 1992, massive rave tune! Then Rusko made the first, and still the best dubstep track I ever heard, Jahova.

    4 20 years ive produced dnb, jungle, dubstep, funk, electro, soul.. but i am on a mission in recent years to perfect the orginal dub sound. sample it, make big bass noises twisted bigness.. its doesnt compare to the rawness of 60/70s dub. luv it!

    if you like rootsy dubstep check out the dubstep re-rub of 'we nah run' and 'wa do dem' by Tes. sticks close to roots whilst having that driving dubstep rhythm. no dirty basslines either.

    Rebel MC had a play with it too, if you look for Junglist (although it's all remixes) and Rebel MC - Kunte Kinte.
    Also Ganja White Night - Peace by Fear includes the melody, for the dubsteppers.

    @stevethegiraffe 15 років тому +1

    Haha, well I'm glad someone agreed with me on this one!!! I swear - people get so protective about Dubstep these days... but it just bores me shitless. You don't need electronic 'whomp'-ness, you need some soul and meaning... Seriously though - if I was granted 3 wishes the 1st would be to remove dubstep from existence. In my opinion it's killing the free party movement with it's ridiculous slowness and general rudeness... WHAT HAPPENED TO THE VIBES EH??? ... rant over... for now at least!

    I get what your saying. Dubstep has a tendancy to go wrong more often.....VERY wrong. But after a heavy night, dub is the way to come down. I could easily chillax to 'kunte kinte' or some tubby after a heavy nights skanking.
    give dubstep a chance mate, it might grow on you. It's not all rusko and bassline.
