ben there only once. late december 96. when not many ppl were aware of drum'n'bass over here in germany, especially not my german classmates who thought i was actually bonkers to travel to london for a few day over new years eve. on my own, without knowing anybody in LDN and with the hardly sufficient amount of english that we were taught in school.
Access what? Music? Music was far far far less accessible back then. When you acquired a dope mix tape you shared it with all your friends because it was hard to get. And acquiring musical instruments? Unless you came from money or knew someone who spent all their money in music instruments that just wasn't an option. I loved the era but let's not get it twisted. Music was far less accessible back then. And music cost much more.
Kids today have access to virtual studios that make everything sound the same. Back in the 90's there was no such template and the diversity of signal chains contributed in more diversity and depth.
There's some incredible stuff being made today but the most interesting of it is a real cross-pollination of styles (even more so than it used to be). Proper hybrid sh*t. It's because of the accessibility of influences/inspirations via the internet, and while it's a shame we don't get many clearly defined subcultures anymore (this goes from music to style and community), it isn't necessarily worse, just different.
very interesting to see everything but the girl's assessment of the musical situation at the time which, in hindsight, is quite on point. also goldie pointing out that the prodigy were up to a different thing is curious as, especially in their first album and their pure rave breakbeat stuff, they did have a common root with what should become drum'n'bass later.
It was funny when I arrived in London in 97 and prodigy was like the mainstream.. I served them beers at the London Motor Show and they all bought brand new cars. But they were mainstream and I never heard their music played at the clubs. It was all hard house at the clubs we went to. Then when I got back to NZ in 2000 everyone was into Prodigy. I brought back a numark mixer so I started djing hard house and house in my home town at the local bar and people loved it. Great days. But prodigy was never my thing. They were like the UKs version of The Offspring. They were better than the offspring because they were not just rock but also punk and rave. But still too mainstream and I dont mean that in a judgemental way. I just wasn't into their gig. I loved the underground sound.
Was it supposed to be about drum 'n' bass artists? Because, except for Goldie, none of those artists where making drum 'n' bass, the other bands and artists they're talking about where not producing drum 'n' bass either and even the music they're using in the video is no drum 'n' bass. It seems the word was just flying around and you were considered cool as soon as you used it.

the 90's was a special time indeed
4:09 bjork has such a vibrant energy and optimism in this clip
Chemical Brothers are timeless and still consistently bringing out great tracks today.
I met Goldie twice. Guy is down to earth and truly has a heart of gold. But you mess with him. He can switch on you real fast. What a legend!
He seems to be honest (even to himself), hence the possible "snapping" when crossing him.
I can relate 🤠
Bjork has literally every accent in the English language
ahh those drum and bass days will always hold a special place in my heart
Bjork so cute here 😁
Danced all weekend to metalheads at the Blue note in Hoxton. Best weekend ever.

This is the greatest video ever. All these tunes I loved as a child and teenager. FSOL, Chemical Bros, Björk, that Todd Terry mix, Prodigy, etc.
That Underworld track is timeless.
97 was a very good year, for me and electronic music!!
I miss the 90's 😢
1997 was the year.
❤
A time machine......take me back , when quality was high , people where sound,things cost less and everyone was able to access it
Kids nowadays have a lot easier access to a lot more synths and effects than back in the day.

an h3000, which is his signiture sound is way out if the pricerange of normal folks
A Time Machine….take me back , when people were high , when quality was people , where sound things were access
funny that you can hear a bit of london in bjork's accent here
not that good music isn’t made these days, but fucking hell they were tapped into something completely different back then
It was because music creation was far less accessible. So a true underground evolved
A lot of music was made on Amigas back then, pretty accessible.
@@stuartaxon2898 on trackers.. compared to the accessibility of laptops and DAWs nowadays i don't think it really compares?

BJÖRK & Goldie💔😭💔
Amazing times.
Great memories and times👍Bukem and Goldie paved the way for the genre..thanks for sharing
Still feels like it was just yesterday sometimes.
This is amazing!! Thanks for this.
Did yoga with goldie at a festival, what a time
I can't help but think Michael Jackson looked at Bjork in this video and thought "That is fkn cool. That is what I want to look like".
Good stuff here never seen this one before. RESPECT! from Los Angeles
Tracey Thorn should've hung out with me back in 1997. I would've showed her the America that loves dance music especially drum and bass.
love
what a gem
03:22 Basically "Tomorrow Never Knows" beat...
loved this
Bjork came out of a volcano
As the volcano that birthed her I can confirm that this is true.
correction she births volcanoes
Is Goldie that “Bad boy Yardie” guy from Snatch (2000)?
Yes!
Sweet
Love them both
DAMN >> I REMEMBER THIS! Pre E foundations
Remember AMP MTV
Yes! The Best!
