Looking Forward: Atmospheric Drum n Bass Compilation (Vol 1)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 чер 2024
- A compilation of modern deep drum & bass featured on the channel between 2021 - 2022. Showcasing the vast talent & styles producers have applied to their productions to shape the future sound.
From heavy vaporwave influences to classic rolling landscapes, drum & bass has always been a genre ripe for experimentation. This compilation explores those interpretations and serves as a snapshot of this period in time.
Thank you all for the support over the past year. So many good songs it was hard to fit everything on one - so, more to come :)

Im thankful to be living in the jungle revivalist timeline
Dnb will never die, seen a baby enjoying some the other day
@@inextinguishablemoltenblooded based baby 🎧
Same here bro
Didn't know there was a revival. Jungle has always been the 👌
Probably all the AI
"Looking forward" is a title that englobes the feeling and ideas behind that genre pretty well.
Fr! Right on point
plus its a genre slowly exploding again and many ppl are getting into dnb. vrchat and memes has brought new light to this
@@armorbones what is vrchat ? 😅
the genre is literally rehashing shit from 20+ years ago and advancing literally nothing for the sound how is it looking forward
#based "englobe" poster
So awesome our generation is finally controlling the dial and bringing back the music we want to hear. Jungle and liquid DnB was not just a fad, it was a belief in a future that was both progressive and timeless. The intricate and abstract structure of the drums layered with the fluid ambient soundscapes and relentless rolling bass rhythms…
It gave hope.
Well said!
i'd also like to say well said. A lot of people have a way of sounding contrived (myself included) when trying to convey their feelings for music.
@@n0cturnalsurfer Thanks, I’m happy to see people feel the same way about DnB. It’s really interesting to me that it resonates so deeply with so many 🤘🏼
Almost made me cry, lots of beauty in how truly timeless music is.
You really nailed it there man! Only thing I might clarify is describing the genre as "forward thinking" instead of "progressive"... In part, bc progressive is used so often as a description of music sonically or in terms of composition... but you were talking about mindset. Anyways... I've had too much coffee 😆
Atmospheric dnb reminds me of the sound of an oscillating fan in the summer, with someone playing drums downstairs. I love it.
vibe
wow good thought bro
I stopped listening to trap/drill music and this turned me into a Pure Mighty Super Saiyan 🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥✨✨
realest thing someones ever said thank u for introducing a new memory palace for my music
It really does sound like a fresh summer breeze
Not many things more enjoyable than finding a new genre you enjoy. Some of these songs are damn immaculate.
I stopped listening to trap/drill music and this turned me into a Pure Mighty Super Saiyan 🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥✨✨
Music is timeless, we are all here to enjoy it whenever it reaches us 🚀
all new is well forgotten old. Listen 32:46 and compare with Sentinel - Pulse of Life. It was produced in 1992... The track wich changed my taste of music completely and forever. In 1992
@@tonkatrucks0070 I hope you still enjoy it from times to times. DnB is definetly a beautiful manifestation of electronical music. So many great tunes, rythms, samples... Love music ! Music is life
@@tonkatrucks0070 1
When I first discovered this video I thought it was a playlist from the late 1990s. I just realized it's all music from the last couple years. Blew my mind, I didn't know people were still making music like this!
@@cockula776 well liquid dnb isn't a new thing, all of us who used to listen to dnb are familiar with it as is probably OP : )
@@cockula776 drum and bass has always been popular
@@wrcz ngl this isn’t liquid bro this is more jungle type
@@HonestManUtdFan yeah i agree, kind of with both of you.. it's got a rolling semi liquid vibe to it but overall it's a bit more subtly jump up and got the amen kind of influence too, more like the original style when Jungle was evolving out of Hardcore at the Raves etc
@@wrcz please refer to my other comment, it's not strictly liquid, in my opinion, but hey i could be wrong.. It's a nice mix though.. But your comment missed the point the original poster was trying to make. He said it SOUNDED OLD but was mind blown by the fact it's new tracks, so he KNOWS and stated the style existed back then so i don't get why you were saying to him it is an old style like he didn't know that but you felt he should have..
Just felt i needed to stick up for the original poster a bit here as he was misrepresented in your comment but no hard feelings meant
Damn, i need to stop reading comments sections and just chill with the mix
Peace folks..i hope life will be good for good hearted people in future
Best wishes from Rolland
at Castle Hassall
I need to meet people in real life who love this.
LTJ Bukem was doing albums like this in the 90s
Logical Progression and Points in Time
Logical Progression is pretty darn good, I'll have to check out the other
Please take a look at Peshay too :)
@@danieleames5145 those Peshay studio sets 👌
Whole good lookin catalogue basically
This music sometimes makes me feel beautiful
accurate expression
2 hours of freshness 🔥🔥🔥 got the whole squad on this mix too! 🙌 ty for including me and much love as always fam ❤
Love your music ❤
@@aed3r Thanks Gustav :) ❤
Sending it back mate!
@@Huehn3rmann Same homie! Love ur track submarine, its been on my playlists for months 🔥🔥🔥
@@AccelioMusicGosh! So happy to hear that. I've been very obsessed with The Storm. Really tight energy on that one. Let's connect!
So happy to be included in this ;; thank you
Classical musician here-- I really love Intelligent DnB, it's a wonderful genre and I love the aesthetics!
I like that term, Intelligent DnB
Same here!
I especially love the contrast it brings to my life compared to my job. Although I absolutely love and have a deep passion for classical music, Intelligent DnB is so flavorful in a different way and I find that very enjoyable to have in juxtaposition. Love you guys!!
What would be considered Unintelligent DnB ? asking for a friend
@@BlestChains Maybe commercial music
"Midnight rendezvous" WOW!
something about "feel the drums" that's so genuis
the changes are in the perfect spots and the sounds mix perfectly together and the sudden sound that comes at 31:21 just makes the whole thing better its truly a master piece
Wow! Thanks for including me on this mix!❤❤
Sick song bro. Do you do live sets? Would love hear music like this in a club
@@gnacg6729 just smaller events, house parties... I've been DJing for only a short while, but I'd very much like to play intelligent sets to a public audience at some point :)
man you gotta Collab with my guy Scatterbrainmane! he makes some dope dnb too!
2 hours of bliss, this is exactly what I needed right now
Thanks a lot 4AM Breaks, youre a legend
I stopped listening to trap/drill music and this turned me into a Pure Mighty Super Saiyan 🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥✨✨
This is a love letter to Drun & Bass listeners, thank you for your channel, truly
I love to remember those DnB raves and LTJ Bukem, Goldie and RoniSize. Cool music indeed😊😊In those times I loved the quieter, floating tunes. I would drop into the zone and stay there for hours😊
Thanks so much for including me!
I love these old Bryce-style artworks. I did so many of these back in the day on my Apple PowerPC.
A friend recently introduced me to this and the jungle fatigue videos, and I must say that he hit the nail on the head with those recommendations. I love all this
this is real drum and bass. not that new school shit where theyre trying to reuse sounds from the harder side of dubstep. which is still good, dont get me wrong.. but this is the real shit.
Didn't know they still made this type of dnb! Awesome!!
26:40 Goosebumps every single time. That switch-up is godly.
Me and my buddies arrange raves at the sauna of my student campus during summers. Nothing beats the feeling of finally opening your first beer after a long day of working in the scorching summer heat, taking a small swim in the lake, and launching these chill atmospheric beats. No other music fits the setting so well. It's almost as if jungle and atmospheric DnB fully encapsulate the feeling of summer, in a way no other genre does.
stop using the term "jungle" to refer to this synthy ambient like dnb. jungle is reggae influenced dnb. none of this music even comes close to "jungle" outside of the use of the amen break. if you are in the uk and you go to an actual jungle event you will not hear this type of music. you would more likely hear reggae guitar jabs with Jamaican sounding mcs rapping fast over a amen break with a reggae/dub bassline.
ua-cam.com/video/O7TklQTeuSE/v-deo.html this is a good example of jungle.
@@accountreality1988 Every single jungle party I've been in has everything from OG jungle to atmospheric DnB. The "genres" intertwine so much it makes no sense to separate them.
@@goldbullet50 not here in the uk where these genres originated. a true jungle rave will be very Jamaican reggae influenced usually very MC centric and the music's vibe tends to be more aggressive more upbeat less ambient chillout in tone. most counties do not separate dnb genres well but here in the uk we do. in the 90s it was even more so the case. many clubs and raves in the uk will have a only liquid/chillout dnb nights and jungle nights. the two genres are separated a lot. both vibes are very different. both only over lap in the fact they both use an amen break and sometimes similar sounding ambient atmospheric snyths. it is true some jungle artists moved on to this later 90s more synthy, airy dnb sound but that does not change the fact both genres sound different and should not be put in the same sentence if you are not actually going to put any actual jungle songs in the mix, just saying.
@@goldbullet50 this is a true jungle mix. ua-cam.com/video/mg-diLZH8yc/v-deo.html
@@accountreality1988 Mate, as someone else from the UK, stop being such an elitist, swear down. I am pretty sure most people nowadays do indeed recognise that Jungle/DnB originates from Jamaican reggae/dub sound. Most of what you wrote can easily be found on Wikipedia or some other source, & I'm sure most people local or international recognise that & often use the term "jungle" loosely to describe this sound. I am pretty sure most people who listen to this subgenre of ambient jungle/dnb often nowadays just see the "roots" thing as an afterthought.
jungle is and will forever be our lifes BGM "the future we never had" was right here, were living in it
I think is possible to say that this genre is making a huge come back.
I accidentally started a jazz song and this playlist around 12:00 at the same time and it worked very good. I love music
Thanks for including me. This compilation is beautiful! :)
Your song is great!
when the drums kicked in on the first song... i knew this was gonna be a good mix
Banger mix
Feel the drums gave me instant goosebumps ! such a vibeeeee!
really grateful that this channel, and indeed this musical genre still exists some 25 years strong
Life's been looking dark for the entire world over the past few years; this mix instantly filled me with a hope I haven't felt in a while.
Thank you, 4AM Breaks.
Pulsar One - Feel the Drums❤️
It just makes you feel at ease. I've been into Drum & Bass for about 7 years now and progressively loved it more and more; particularly Jungle. After all my listening over the years, I'm coming to appreciate the intelligence and quality of proper produced Drum & Bass and all its sub-genres. Theirs so many tracks to discover. Peace be with you.
It's such an awesome compilation - I enjoyed every second of it - and I'm so glad to finally see artists I enjoy listening to the most including my friends in one place. Thank you so much for adding me on there too, I truly feel honored! I couldn't have been happier knowing a channel like yours exists because not only does it massively help us new artists reach a wider audience but it's also keeping atmospheric drum and bass alive, as well as revealing and spreading the beauty of this genre for the people who have never experienced it before and are just getting acquainted.
this mix is absolute heat! come on youtube, let it hit the algorithms
THE best genre of DnB. I listen to this on my headphones while I sleep and I feel like I'm floating in a world just like the backdrop. It's amazing everytime. Nott only that, but the instant nostalgia I get listening to this from all the old 90's and 2000's games that had soundtracks like this.
3D modeling fits so well with jungle and liquid music.
Listening to this mix is like stepping into a time machine that transports me simultaneously to a bygone era tinged with deep nostalgia and a yet-to-be-discovered future full of euphoria and wisdom
Pulsar One - Feel The Drums is track of the year already
Absolutely love the mix. Each track sounds like straight out of the 90s
24:25 Volant is so good making music !
I love the positive mood this music puts you in.
I enjoy these uploads keep up the good work 😃👍🏾
Great selection! thank you
No way this mix wasn’t made in like 2002 this is so good
4am breaks on the money AGAIN
Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes!! The perfect thing for my road trip coming up, and exactly what I had been craving. I know it's going to be stellar!
🔥🔥 Big ups to the 4am Breaks channel everyone in this compilation 🔥🔥
I kinda recognize this background from 90s Ambient Jungle Mix 6, with that "donut" coming from the water.
Like many, I've discovered Drum n Bass through the break dance cat meme. It was amazing, and I'm currently looking out for more! Your channel got my attention due to the amazing songs/playlist you share. Amazing work as always!
I discovered it though the Ambiance upload of the peshay studio set (banger, if you haven't heard it I highly recommend it) and two days ago I even went to a big dance night with modern drum 'n bass (I danced from around 11 pm to 4:30 am with only will power and caffeine, no other drugs 💪)
@@groetjesuitdehel you must really love music then ahaa I danced 6 hours straight some weeks ago without drugs either only water to scot project. This is the right way if you love music you don't need that shit.
check out ambiance channel
@@groetjesuitdehel peshay studio set 1996 was my gateway too, if you don't count years of listening to MSX FM and other game dnb tunes haha
It doesn't matter what way you discover it but once you like it once you'll never be able to stop
4AM Breaks you are 🔥🔥🔥!!
So stoked Pizza Hotline is on here, dude is an absolute legend
Ever since the 90s... I have always wondered what the donuts in the sea do... But whenever i see them, I just lose my mind and think of a possible understanding without ever feeling a need to touch them...
Stunning as always… jungle is massive!
introducing this compilation with Currents by Seim is such a good choice
wow amazing euphoric stuff, just wow.
I FUCKING LOVE ATMOSPHERIC DRUM N BASS RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Lifts me high from life and into the higher portals💝
Jamming to this while my cat drinks his water. Gotta say life is good right now.
bro that sounds at the beginning just hooked me for the entire 2 hrs, thanks for keeping this genre alive.
I'm so excited Jungle is getting popular again. I'm currently working on a sci-fi rpg with the OST being jungle and some breakcore
u gotta lmk when this shit is done this sounds so cool
this is not jungle!!!!
Thanks! Added to our personal Chillout playlist... 🧊
Its the way of the future with this. Massive comp 4AM!!!
Such amazing drum and bass, i listen it since 2003 but i never heard of any of these artists. and i absolutely love this style. uplifting, technical, melodical, ambient, jungle, dnb 4 life a matti
Such a neat idea. The amount of quality + quantity of songs featured here are easy listening goodness!
Need more music like this where it feels like it's out of this world keep it going
man I love this play list
I also love coming here to explore the new recommendations I get lol
Awesome yet refreshing mix 👍 Been binging the classics (Bukem, Simon Bassline etc) but it's great knowing new artists are composing atmospheric/intelligent DnB to this day!
Been my favourite dnb/jungle mix for months now. Love how optimistic it feels, bring on volume 2!🙏🙏🙏
Loved it, took me on a slow trip down memory lane, and some great times in the 90s when the PSX was runnin' whilst I was doing something else, and Jungle Menu Music was just filling the room out the CRT-Speakers, tripping me out as a kid without me even realising..
This atmo DnB/Jungle vibe is timeless, and this is an excellent selection/blend! Thanks for sharing
Yesss I feel the same maybe it's because off all of our memories associated with good times and videogames on ps1 and n64 as children!
I ALWAYS LIKED THIS GENRE SINCE I WAS A CHILD, IT REMINDS ME OF OLD RACING GAMES
Wish it wasn't trite to say this is one of the best mixes I've ever heard.
now this is real dnb/jungle. many ppl r doing just dnb and saying its jungle, but this is correct era from the last 90s. big up
my life is complete listening to the vocals when they come on in the first track, OMG =O...
WOAH, THIS MIX IS NICE!
I've already played through this full compilation multiple times! really love this upload! Nice work
Goddayum Pulsar One - Feel The Drums hits all the right spots.
2:48 bro. This is a hard blend that ever-so-smooth 💚👌🏽 thank you for this!
Awesome
This mix helps keep my head clean while I look for work, thanks!
29:00 is maybe one of the best music i've ever heard🌠🖤💯⚔🛡🎑
Being a fan of this channel for months, I find myself recognizing most of these tunes! So many good ones. Cheers!
DnB for the WIN!! 🎉
Nice suprise to click on a video and hear your own song, I appreciate you putting my song in, it's a honor!
The whole track is phenomenal, start to finish!
This is simply art! I've been listening it for a while and it just never disappoints.
that's what i call smooth sailing
Seim - Currents - love the way the whitney sample is used
Everything about this is so optimistic and beautiful, thank u for putting this together :)
best mix ever. DNB forever
found ya :-)
@@1ncred8ble hi
@@gameofcourse5001 :D
The best liquid compilation i've heard in long time
its not really liquid. liquid sounds 10x more femenine, pop influenced, and recycled. with way more vocals, like, actual words etc. tends to have really really femenine production aesthetics. cant stand it personally. this is just atmospheric or ambient jungle with mid to late 90s flare.
Love this so much, favourite track is Volant - Aerowalk, but they're all so immersive. Thanks for this 4AM and much love to you all reading this!
This is the next step forward.
Dangerously good tunes. Smooth with a catchy rolling lick.
What an amazing mix! Thanks so much for making these, this is my favorite channel these days!
Ohh yesss ...good vibes with the massive...bless the drum and bless the bass...shuot out to all ya good artists...✌️
Dude I’ve listened to a dozen mixes of ambient jungle and this shit is easily the best one yet
Some people hear natire sounds, auto hipnosis, frequences etc.. when i feel deppressed or bad in my mind i use these ambient jungle mixes to calm my being, its magic.. saludos desde Mexico
So smooth 😎 thanks for the upload
This mix is so downright nasty I love it.
After listening to your mixes for a while, I just noticed that you also make the album art! You've really nailed that 90's aesthetic!
