  • wow. i'm forty and drunk but i still came up when the bond kicked in. chills.

  • This is nearly 20 yrs old but still sounds like the future..... Hardcore will NEVER DIE!!!

  • God bless subwooooooooffff

  • wicked! TUNE!!! ;) jUST mENTAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

  • Smiley, smiley people everywhere in the 90's... Rave music back then was to be enjoyed... Make mine an Acid.. These days people just go out to get pissed & fight!!!!! F*ck me, i sound like me dad :)

  • Genius hardcore :)

  • All these give me genuine chills!!! There hasn't been and never will be an atmosphere like these tunes could generate again!! WOW!

  • For old skool try this originuk.net

  • First track of this genre I heard and I knew from that moment I needed more.

    Music from this era and genre was true art.

    Art in my book, is something produced for no other reason than to be enjoyed by other people and with no consideration of making money from it.

  • filthy hardcore classic...;) drugs and music, dancing and parties...wotz not 2 like?

  • filthy hardcore classic...;)

  • Yes you have given me an idea with that video you created

  • really should put a night on with all these old tunes.....AMAZING LOVE IT

  • @justdid102  I would SO be there!!

  • Pardon me, but I hardly feel that drugs and music are the essence of reality, or the source of all happiness. Logic and truth are water and solid ground to me. I mean, I love this music, but there's no need to get that serious about it.

  • @NerdilyDone Some people find answers to their questions in different ways mate. Not everyone is capable of opening their mind without the use of drugs & music.

    Personally I can do both, but I choose to take drugs and listen to music because it's another level of existence to explore.

    :)

  • @HiNtZzZ It's a way to damage your brain and suffer the side effects. :(

  • @NerdilyDone Yes that's very true, & I'm not denying that, but there is risk in every decision one takes in life...

  • @NerdilyDone Funny you say about drugs damaging your brain...

    ...that's what I think about religion.

  • @Jarren202 I can't believe you even said that. Everyone has religious beliefs, even if they're anti. Besides, thinking about the spiritual exercises your brain as a muscle because it's pondering things you don't understand. Drugs deliberately and directly eliminate brain cells. This is a matter of science, not a matter of opinion.

  • @NerdilyDone good answer!!!

  • god people around this era sound really old now moaning about the youth of today etc!!! 'it were great back then shit now' etc lol probably sound just like their parents.

  • Das solen uns die kidis mal nach machen..Geillloooooooooooooooo­o

  • @TheEugeep....its dickhead with a k,you fat nonce,gutted that i actually wrote something you aspire to,thats it wipe ya chin you dribbling no mark.

  • What a wonderful song. Depressing - because there's nothing so beautiful as this now, only dreary folk music and dubstep. I blame the internet, anyone else with me?

  • @saphieable definately agree dubstep is a steaming pile of horse shit compared to old school rave!

  • hardcore was hardcore,happy hardcore did not kill hardcore,the introduction of jungle in fairness killed off the scene,lot more attitude evolved from jungle,so when producers like the metalheads etc,where already pumping out dark hardcore but not necassaraly being played at raves as where too dark,they evolved into the jungle scene where there style of music was openly played,from jungle i think it evolved into dark core,then 2 step,alway down to dnb,which i think is a load of old noncense,91-92

  • @stevejoalbert

    Maybe in England it happened that way... But in Los Angeles, it was doomed from the start. This is the only salvation I had in the midst of the most domestically violent epoch in modern US history... it was raging in full force all around us and we would escape every weekend to unite in front of a huge wall of sound. Pure pleasure... the unity was real, at least for a little while.

  • @stevejoalbert .... you hit the nail on th head... music today (with somevery small exceptions) is shte, even the youngr generation agree

  • @stevejoalbert =dichhead

  • Oh hey, I get hype when I hear a drum roll, too!

  • You Send Me Higher, Take Me Higher, More Than Ever Before, I Can't Believe This Feeling.

  • This some revolutionary ish right here!

  • the final say. you are spot on. from a man that was there...

  • First time I have listened to this all the way through - this is genius for the time, love the whole feel and texture of its construction.....awesome!!! :)

  • superb. far more talent and imagination than what gets thrown out today

  • Utter genius - well ahead of its time.

  • rave-radio com or co uk playin tunes like these, all day everyday

  • @raveradiouk you what!!!! well i'll be checking it out X)

  • Part II's better.

  • @XcidRaverXcid

    Naaaa.... When this break jumped in for the first time... the dance floors across the land were 'moist' from all the ravers juicing themselves with excitement! ;-D

  • Wow, James Bond samples. '92 hardcore was and still is awesome.

  • old skool hardcore at its best. I feel like 15 again :-)

  • first heard this way back when i was 13 years old on the BBC Radio one Top 40 singles chart show!!!! I was taping it on my old ghetto blaster and i remember Mark Goodier saying " and we were playing that at the right speed, at number 37"

    been hooked on this sound ever since, thisdude produced Baby D. This sound is hard to describe especially on my ipod,,,, classic early dnb / techno this stuff should be made to day!!!! I dont want some dude dissing me or shouting any rude stuff!!!

  • i damn ruined some reebok classics on that...

  • I loved the tune to the total max. Caused many a few "uh-oh, I think I'm going to have to sit down - RIGHT NOW, before I keel over" moments.

    Was really dissapointed to be dragged to a cheesy club on the premise that he was going to D.J and it turned out he couldn't. But, boy could he put tunes together. Sterns for ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I go completely mental at about 1:56, and progressively more n more so.

  • Acen was the sound of hardcore at it`s peak. I`d love a revival of this sound but with a forward looking futuristic sound as well.

  • @7lartceps Possibly the best comment ive read on here in a good while.

  • fukkin lovin this!

  • Married, mortgage, kids, middle aged, overweight. almost leapt out of my chair with a real genuine tear in my eye. This tune just gave me a flash back I had my head in my hands with goose bumps running up and down my back eyes closed I was there a second ago !

    WHAT A FEELING.

    What a feeling......

  • @einstiencross

    Mate totally with you, those memory's I'll take to the grave, hate to say it but they where the best days of my life. Still can't complain at 37 I haven't got a gut just yet! ;)

  • @einstiencross

    I know. ... where's the time gone .. Our generation created (20 somethings in the early mid 90s) ALL the dance genres that are around today .. & the 2000s have given us NOTHING revolutionary.

    Our grandkinds will be laughing at us with out walking sticks & stoops, by saying 30 years from now.. : "HA HA Grandad - You can't keep up with your own music any more!" .. How prophetic.

  • @einstiencross

    Even worse... when we think of 'our' (wartime) grandparents.. its' all waltzing. .."we'll meet again"... blah de blah, with a bit of 'pack yer troubles in yer old kit bag..." thown in..

    OUR grand kids will be laughing their head at us geriatrics saying ''Bloody hell Granddad, you can't keep up with your own era's music!" - What will be eve more ironic, will be that our Grand Kids will probably be waltzing around again at 50bpm .... LOL Peace :-)

  • @einstiencross Remember when you first entered the rave and the moment when you felt yourself starting to 'come up'? Mate, those were the fucking days i know. No genre compares to that now. the feeling of being young and care free. You basically lived to rave and that was that. Wicked times, gone but never forgotten.

  • @RealTalkerMan

    Waiting in the queue outside the Roller Express, coming up - so much bass the outside cladding is shaking....

    Very happy days....Every W/E pilling it up with like minded peeps - and we were there 92 - 95

  • @Millwall527 hahahahaha the roller express. is that place still there?

  • @RealTalkerMan Yeah man =]

  • @RealTalkerMan haha mate I'm 20 and living that now with dnb, I'm jealous though it sounds like you had it way better back then, this tune is mind blowing

  • Comment removed

  • clasic look my channel men

  • I think you will find it is called "Space March" from "You Only Live Twice" not "Diamonds are Forever" - Stop getting Bond wrong.

  • been after this tune for fcuking years!!! finally got it cheers for uploading it. now i can take it bk to canada to show them fcuking yanks what proper music is ment to sound like instead of the dire shyte they listen too lol

  • What the fuck? I'm canadian and was listening to this way back in 92.

  • @Neurozumim Tell me, how is Canadian music doing these days? Is it dodging a lot of the nonsense pop is going through right now?

  • @NerdilyDone You could say the "indie" canadian scene is trendy in how it follows (and sometimes influence, thanks to Arcade Fire) the "folk-rock" and "orchestral pop" scenes of New York (Brooklyn) which has been popular in the last half of the decade. I'm beyond trends and just listen to what I like. Geography is much less pertinent today, there are good artists everywhere. AtomTm is venered like a god in electronic music here, but that's true everywhere.

  • @Neurozumim Ah, well, I was just curious about pop Canadian artists. Popular music is doing better in places like South Korea right now, and I was just wondering where Canada was with that.

  • @yummyessexm I don't know about Canada as a whole, but Montreal is (and has been since the 60's) a fantastic music city.

    Rave was big in Montreal back in the early 90's too. I'm currently living in Montreal and I have found loads of oldschool CD compilations from Canada with Acen, Altern 8, The Hypnotist etc on them.

    Plus, Turbo Records (run by Tiga) is still releasing quality techno, some of which is steeped in rave feeling. Check out Beyer & Lenk feat. Tiga - Heartbreak. ;)

  • fiya!!

  • Acen - Life And Crimes Of A Ruffneck!!!!

    Xenophobia- The Wobbler

    WishDokta - Evil Surrounds Us

    Shut Up & Dance - The Green Man

    Hackney Hardcore - Dancehall Dangerous

  • im a big colector of this genre of music and love tunes like this one that sample a good piece of classical music, i also know of kleptomania amedaus and brothers grimm field of dreams plus other ACEN tracks, can anyone give me some new leads to some classical rave?

  • its just pure fucking old skool hardcore

  • It's not classical it's the ost of diamonds are forever by John Barry (spy movie music). But great if you collect old school breaks. Like Manix and stuff? just great.

  • Comment removed

  • Krome and time

  • go on a handbag forum n ask. this is for true ravers!

  • its called trip to the moon (pure underground remix) and it sounds ridiculous. now stop fouling ravers pages!

  • wow classic. i have these still in the cd sleeves. the memories. :D

  • CDS???? chump i used to bust these on on my 12.10'10's. U dont know what u chatting about............... FOOL

  • it's all music all the same. we should all just be happy us new schoolers can listen to this. :)

  • LOVE IT!

  • Holy Shit! that took me back!! Good days.

  • tingleey all over, then mooraker kicks in

    Even better when your there, you cant expalin it Apple Fm lol

  • this is so good, so clever

  • shame hardcore dissapeared and happy hardcore ruined it

  • Ruined it, fucking happy hardcore today has raped it!!

  • @ianbillericay

    Happy Hardcore is clown music, it's just nonsense

  • @ianbillericay happy hardcore makes me sad :(

  • @ianbillericay happy hardcore from what year?

  • @ianbillericay I wouldn't necessarily say that. If you listen to some of the early happy hardcore that stuff was pure awesome. What made early happy hardcore good was that it relied more on the "hardcore" than the "happy". Happy hardcore eventually developed into more of a "happy" genre than a "hardcore" genre. So I think it would be better said that the "happy" killed the "hardcore".

  • @ianbillericay

    I dont believe that this has got anything to do with happy hardcore taking over hardcore.. This was practically a breakbeat tune, a genre that was taken over by drum and bass which was just as good..

  • @charmand79 Yep. Break beat became huge in the mid 90's and peaked in the late 90's only to sorta die out and be overtaken by DnB

  • wicked old tune.i always liked this.

  • OH MY GOD! CHOON!!!

  • It just never gets old!!

    Pure drama!!

  • this song is fucking amazing

  • heard it first in awol at the paradise by the time the rave was over the sunday morin i went home and looked at my collection thinking my tunes are crap

  • is that from You Only Live Twice towards the middle? sounds familiar

  • its Moonraker

  • its from a bond movie yes

  • BUENISIMA ROLAAAAAA

  • Like a kit, very much like a kite.:]

  • Just a thought...In England during the 'Rave' period of 88-93ish(mine anyway;) violence in general was reduced and football violence, which had been prolific during the 80s, almost disappeared completely! This was down to the music scene and the widespread use of E...that has since been replaced with binge drinking and record stabbings...Hmmm! :P

  • Its true, when i used to go to raves i never saw any trouble at all, then all of a sudden the music changed and comercial house/dance club scene took over and football violence returned, now record stabbings. why can't we go back to the days of fantazia and obsession!!!

  • Yeah and this also coincides with E in general being far better in the early 90's the first five years of the rave scene was a bubble of fun, all peeps wanted to do was go out get wasted dance and party hard, it was all very innocent, we were all adam and eves wide eyed n gaging for it lol I miss them dayz !

  • @TheFinalSay That with the increase of foreigners...

  • @TheFinalSay good point :)

  • @TheFinalSay

    Perhaps that's because music is shit now, thus people are now stabbing each other & turning to gratuitous violence as a mass fit of depression ;-)

  • @xoio LOL!

  • @TheFinalSay Wow! Highest rated comment makes me jizz rainbows!! hehe :D

  • @TheFinalSay Yah, not to many stabs reported about an E user i reckon! with good music and a good circle and a good trip, whats there to be angry about? Nothing!

  • @TheFinalSay Yea, I read that account too lol. They pretty much invented alcopops as a replacement for ecstasy use. Get the kids onto something they can tax and control... Now we're onto dodgy research chems cos they've banned safrole? It's only got worse and worse...

  • @TheFinalSay Last thing The Powers That Be would want would be everyone running around experiencing unconditional love and expanding their horizons by interfacing with the gestalt through the medium of ecstatic dance!

  • @TheFinalSay Agreed mate! Yet Es are illegal and alcohol is legal. Go figure ;)

  • @TheFinalSay Well the last thing the Government wants is people experiencing unconditional love and happines...

  • @TheFinalSay to true!!

  • @TheFinalSay funnily enough thats coz most of the hooligans were getting pilled out of thier heads and bullying ravers. also, gangsters took over the ecstacy manufacturing and thats why nowadays the pills are total shite. no-one ever took 10 pills in a night

    back then, unless they were trying to kill themselves. from what i hear, 10 pills is lightweight nowadays.

  • Like the way you mix the tekno bit from pt.2 towards the end...but it overpowers it a bit

  • Pysznie miażdżący masakrator :D

  • WOT A TUNE , CLASSIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • One of my fave tunes ever, brilliant.

  • this tune is brutal!

  • sooney made this trip elephant times two mother fucker WE love strawberry jam especially when it is in JAM!!!?????

  • nice sample from eric b and rakim's i got soul

  • Still buzz off it like I did when I was 15/16.Acen was a genius he was well ahead of the pack along with Sublove,NRG,The prodigy.

  • Who wants to go and rave the fuck out?

  • i want to go and rave the fuck out!

  • Count me in too, Thomas!

    Won't someone organise an illegal outdoor again? Why not?!!

    If we can also find a retro clothing place and get destroy/benzini/joe bloggs tops and pepe jeans and the like, then all the better! lol

  • Yeah, maybe with some Kappa and some Tachini;)...

    ;)

  • My friend... outdoor raves wouldnt be the same again. Bak in the day it was all about peaceful luvvin folk comin together to enjoy the trax & dance ... nowadays there would be alcohol, aggression, knives, trouble. So sad, but true.

  • so need to organise another outdoor'illegal' event again!

  • im in on that if you ever get it going give me a shout yeah. id be well up for an outdoor all nighter!

  • Am i too late to join in the party?

  • no ,the party has no end or begining mwahahahah

  • and don't you just love it! = D

  • damn idk if im crazy but i have dreams with music similar to this but similaur to the present day standards :o could it be another music revalution is in store?

  • act on it, get some vintage synths and the mpc 60 and make it happen! you could b e the next Acen! Thats how he made Part II of this was he had these sounds in his head as a kid for part II.

  • Comment removed

  • Acen should be rated with Kraftwerk, Eno, Derrick May, etc. etc. for his contribution to electronic music, pure genius brah! :)

  • lets not get carried away, few are on the level of Kraftwerk, but those others, yes sure.

  • Thanks for sharing. It's much appreciated.

  • Thank Jebus for DownloadHelper!

    I gotta find myself a Rave sample cd and start doing this shit.

    For the memories. :)

  • EPIIICC!

  • anyone know where do download this?

  • yeah same here please

  • Google 'Freecorder' and download the program. It sets up a new tool bar and allows you to record audio from Youtube. Really easy to use. Records the tunes to MP3. My one loads it straight to my i-tunes libary. Any troubles just drop me line. Glad to help.

  • bittorrent

  • HOOOLLLY SHIT!!!!!!!!! THAT LAST BIT OF THE SONG I BELIEVE THATS WERE MOBY GOT HIS TUNE!!!! damn moby knows a shit load of music xD

  • johnw456, your best bet is to buy the vinyl somewhere like ebay or discogs and record it onto your computer. No online download shops seem to sell Acen's stuff (or Production House in general).

    Failing that, there's a few oldschool forums and blogs that have Acen's tracks for download. Seeing as it's impossible to buy them legally I see no problem in this.

    Oh, and don't rip tunes directly from Youtube. The sound quality is awful.

  • Touchdown Radio u no the score

  • Comment removed

  • "I get hype.. When a drum roll..." "I CAN'T BELIEVE THESE FEELINGS.." Go 1992. Rinse ... Repeat. Rave.
