LTJ Bukem - Watercolours

[TheCadiford]

Drum&Bass ... love it so

[todei79]

@1czelaya I hate the fact that people chose to give dnb all these sub genres. I think that's just posers wanting to be cool and sound knowledgable. To me it's just dnb.

[SeniorConecho71]

@todei79 : spot on. There's also something in a Dylan book I read. speaking to a famous jazzer (may have been Duke Ellington) he goes on about "folk, rock, or jazz" ... Duke says "it's all music, we're all folk; ergo, everyone plays 'folk music").

Which is cool.

[Eddyat21]

need 1080

[archon808]

So do you start with a terragen image, and then move the tint slider?

[redeadnixon]

@archon808 looks like it.

[oliverking90001]

Still sounds brand new 15 yrs later....... total genius

[abletosearch]

omfg thats phenomenal

[TheMartinslima]

LTJ BUKEM IS SUCH A GOOD PRODUCER AND DJ, MASSIVE RESPECT FROM PORTUGAL, I LOVE IS WORK!

[LWAkira]

I wanna run, exercise my body, mind and soul with this song* I love LTJ!

[herbalt]

i'm conflicted....i want to hit "like", but then it won't say "420 likes" anymore. : /

[RamzSSB]

3:48 I get chills every time. This song gives me a feeling that no other song can.

[artplant2]

Look on Amazon, dude! LTJ Bukem has album "Journey Inwards" and there's this song Watercolurs, not on any of 3 St. Germain CD's . Tunatic auto tag this song as St. Germain's, though.

[comeonewtf]

I dig it

[harryforeman]

this isnt ltj, this is st germain

[endtroducing420]

@harryforeman Wrong, this is def LTJ & not St Germain. This is of LTJ's double disc album Journey Inwwards

[harryforeman]

@endtroducing420 wrong, this is def st germain and not ltj. this is off st germains double disc album journey outwards

[DUBSHARK]

@harryforeman  I own this on Vinyl..It is most definately LTJ Bukem.

[HectorVonFuzzypants]

@harryforeman facepalm.jpg

[harryforeman]

@HectorVonFuzzypants see what i did there?

[jasbk]

I stopped listening to Dance music years ago.... I bought this album though and this is by far the best song on it... i still dont listen to the albums.. just keep them on the shelf.. memories of a different life... Keep em in my head and my heart. god bless.

[tablatom]

aural heaven

[NeoTStyle]

Absolutely brilliant and beautiful.

[april83lynn]

DAMN THIS IS A GOOD ONE :)

[mennonline]

One of the best LTJ-tracks ever.

[Meila2SunsetBeach]

LOVE this tune! One of my fav d'n'b classics EVER. Can't stop listening to when the sax paces up at 3.48 til 4.32 - amazing. Never gets tired!

[sitesnapper]

Atlantis I need You for me. That was my tune, then it was The Ladder...

[fullweedman]

So LTJ Bukem made this song! I had a CD wich is Essential drum N bass, and this was the first song, I never found it later till now! Great upload :)

[1czelaya]

I'm a progressive house, progressive breaks, classic trance (dark underground sounds-not the cheesy stuff), techno (acid & minimal) & ambient DJ. I'm curious to see what other Drum and Bass DJs play?

About the only times I ever meet D&B DJs where at raves (we don't have those anymore). I never given D&B any time to listen, but I must admit, a lot of the music by LTJ Bukem has a very progressive and soulful sound.

I just never knew D&B has a lot of sub-genres.

[cookiesondowales]

@1czelaya jump up: (dj sly,hazard, orgininal sin(ish),high roller. liquid : (redeyes, bcee,drifta,lenzman,netsky,s.p­.y,netsky. so many more artists and styles. liqiuid is more like ltj bukem but more easy listening

[Oxix999]

@cookiesondowales You forgot Paul SG or Msdos.

[MnMs93]

I honestly can never find myself getting tired of this song.

[andyncfcgetshypedup]

I remember what High Contrast did that for JLS No Soul remix on the High Contrast Confidential album. It sound Identical what LTJ Bukem and High Contrast made the sound like the same but different.

[CincoSnare76]

One of my favorites of all time.

[ThePhil311]

A classic to me

[TheAneraaaa]

Tune

[lavvvona]

Light

The

Joint

[pokerockmario123]

This tune OWNS Pendulum - Watercolour IMO

[WolneRzartY]

@pokerockmario123 not only this one, 99% of rest too >.<

[nu0am0nimic]

@pokerockmario123 pendulum ain't shit compared to LTJ. Never was, never will be.

[ballyg4thecounty]

in general,old skul/jungle is betr dan 2days stuff.i tink it got more soul/spirit?f any1 gets me?

[Meila2SunsetBeach]

@ballyg4thecounty definitely! the jungle remix of horizons is annother classic

[streetkid420]

i love this style .. this my heart beat.. much love and respect to u all DnB, Junglist , trance , tech house , electro, BREAKS (MIAMI) psy transe and all progressive .plus HOUSE!!! Acid jazz!! 1 love add me if anyone wants to here r fb .

[ministrokes100]

so good!

[natripu]

excellent

[TheTomass18]

this is great

[andyncfcgetshypedup]

Different to High Contrast's Remix of JLS No Soul.

[emayoh]

2 people can only handle fingerpainting

[streetkid420]

can't get any better than this .. yo love LTJ u r #1

[TheMartinslima]

i just love the song, the video tells nothing. quite vulgar actualy

[bklynsfinest814]

ahhhhhhhhh

[deniro6ify]

that intro is just amazing!!!!! the drop is even better!!!!! love this tune!!!!!!! bukem is defo a legend in drum n bass.

[jherikurl]

In case anyone is interested... the opening harp/bells/chimes were sampled from Roy Budd - Main Titles (Diamonds OST) .. LTJ also sampled quite a few other bits off that soundtrack. Check it.

[5Kpro]

@jherikurl i wonder if the sample was cleared by roy budd then...

[MatthewYoungProducer]

@jherikurl

can you name a few?

[anyproblems123]

Beautiful song. It's relaxing in way and energetic too.

[purtorican99]

awesomeeeeeeeee

[joeblo40]

ove it please tell me more about LTJ Bukem

[yusukeshonen]

This should be the official music video.

[oOsicknickOo]

@yusukeshonen lol cheers :)

[Dubconferencedotorg]

still beuatiful tune .. love it 

[audioexcels]

Love that classic drum n' bass sound/beat. Without it, the song/sound is nothing. LTJ and select others were able to implement the sounds of jazz/funk/etc. into that classic drum n' bass groove to make the perfect sound/style that drum n' bass has ever had.

[calvinator9111111111]

Listening to this through some Bose noise cancelling headphones is like getting paid £1000 an hour for doing fuck all, i might as well work in our government, same outcome. Omg when that sax came in i totally shut off, then that bassline omg what a tune! I'm so glad i haven't turned out how my mates have (Chart cunts as i like to call them). I'm only 16 and i am coming out with stuff like that, it aint right ha :P

[kickedint]

@calvinator9111111111 Haha :) I hear you lol. I'm 16 and out of all my mates i'm the only one that listens to tunes like this, they have no taste in music! I say fuck mainstream music. Old skool dnb rulessss :) x

[calvinator9111111111]

@kickedint You know... Fucking good on you mate

[kickedint]

@calvinator9111111111 Lol :) x

[gruveygirl420]

@calvinator9111111111 Cheers to you for being only 16 and having impeccable taste in music my friend. If you ever get a chance to see LTJ Bukem live I urge you to go see him. Amazing, live! It's an experience!

[Jowellzzz]

@calvinator9111111111 I feel ya mate, I'm 17 and I'm just getting back into Jungle and real DnB, feels good.

[dariusdynamite]

this song combined with the martial landscapes and crazy colours is absolutely nasty!!!! ALL of LTJ's stuff, as ya'll put it, OWNS!

[ma0ma0ma0]

@angeloveproject links-chameleon

[OldSkoolTunes1]

u dont need to be buzzing...or smoking to listen and to enjoy this tune......this is a pure music at its best.....missed the 90's and early 2000's

now music is sheeeeet!!!!

[doctalee]

The Sub bass drop at 3:48...AMAZING

[SuperClaudeballs]

Forgotten how good this sounds....wheres my papers?

[directorlog]

Nice arrangement, builds up to a mid-climax so cool.

[mellowmartin1]

in a word = yeah!!

[alphidee78]

LOVE IT!!

[manhead3]

I love this guys music this tune has got soul and intelligence that can lead me into atmospheric high.

Big up LTJ Bukem

[TheDjblaze7]

Oxix999

[makEKnickers]

Are these songs on any CD's i get atm??

[AmazonianBeauty]

I love this....it's just the musical equivalent of getting high!!

and i'm as high as a kite!!(metaphorically speaking...lol)

[PokerSoul]

Its IDM ( Intelligent Drum n' Bass)

[Nitrucha]

IDM - Intelligent Dance Music :)

[Nonchalant82]

i'm still mad @ myself cuz i had this on vinyl and didn't know what i had and allowed a former friend to talk me out of it......*sigh*

[mh123fgh]

wasn't this almost identical to ''earth'' by him?

[norris89]

one of the first songs to ever get me hooked on dnb... almost a decade ago

[manhead3]

@norris89 Same here man!!! Love the swooshing layers and ambient textues.

[BigJ4708]

@norris89 Same here 1999 I first heard his earth albums and I was hit with a feeling from it and hooked as well

[themarijuanaguy]

definition of pure skill... smooth

[MrSunshine58]

Very cool, and the clip, as simple as it may seem, is just perfect. It fits so perfectly to the music. Simplicity and complexity all in one. Very nice job.

[vdvsoldat]

Absolutely technophonically progressive and rythumatically futuristic !

[ElectricRudeGirl]

this tune is just cosmic! no words to describe it!

[TheRambodisli]

nice worke!

[staplesInk]

allways a lovely tune on a german AUTOBAHN ! ^^

[themystifie]

lol

[Oxix999]

@staplesInk Rofl. :D

[jordanbags]

MAKES U come down NICELYY

[ahotguy8]

[directorlog]

Sublime work

[SvetozarDjordjevic91]

Where i can download this song???

[subwoffer]

here

[UJ96LFA]

Earth Vol 2 and Journey Inwards are BUKEM´s best solo records. He´s just incredible.

[Ultdonkey]

4 any1 that wants to really feel this shit ,even tho this might sound bad and even tho "some peps might not like it" drop a couple of pills and then you know!!!,,Seen LTJ live quite a few times and trust me he will take you to another place :)

[beansmikebreak]

true....but you could also add &fmt=18 to the end of the web address and hear it in high-quality and not have to take any rolls!!!! stop taking shit by the way. one dude, take one. and if you have to take more, you should chill for a while. it's about the scene and the music, not the triple stacked yellow ducks you ate last night. pff!!!

[NeoTStyle]

@beansmikebreak

Your comment is a year old but...

that is exactly what I think and what is wrong with the DnB community. DnB is about the music, not about how many drugs you take. DnB that is actually good will get you in a state of mind WITHOUT the drugs. Kinda like this tune.

Not saying drugs are strictly bad, but people should stop talking about drugs and start talking more about the music.

[psynok]

i ll go see him this sunday !! he is coming in salonika ! fucking great!!!!!!!!

[ahotguy8]

4 real, I thought he'd stopped touring years ago

[Oxix999]

lol drugs?

[dgibbs20]

this is soooo tight that its not even funny

[przemko86]

it's a perfect tune!

[JT3VR6MK3]

[kristopolous]

I pity those without taste...

[overlord3069]

The saxophone at 3:51 is soooo sexy.

I want to eat this song for dinner

[ElectricRudeGirl]

i see space when i hear this incredible tune

[doctalee]

Such a great tune!!!

[type1human]

The vibe is so ... clear and clean and strange :D

[remnow]

at around 3:50 of this song I just zone out... Amazing art in this.

[rts100x5]

when i pull up to the light with this beat and bassline comin through my JL 13's ....... heads start turnin............ {:P

[marleysalemmango88]

haha yeah and they're thinking 'what a fucking fag'!

[rts100x5]

and all of us here are thinkin " your're a fukin 8 yr old who needs an ass whippin"  punk ass bitch boy get back in school and learn to be a man.

[marleysalemmango88]

You want to ass whip 8 yr olds in school!? fucked up man

[VULGARIS1901]

[TranceXXL]

Just great!

[moondogg43]

smooth is Bukems middle name....the build up to the drums and then the bassline kicking in....quality shit here my friends...been following this guy since the beginning, got almost everything hes done....this is some of the best...

[123starkiller321]

this is shit good

[AreULookingAtMe]

i have this lovely tune on 12" - it still gets me when that bassline comes in... how smooth is this tune?!?!

[beatsiz]

Smoothy Smooth lol

I can't afford a technics, mixer and amp right now, so I will be getting a Vestax Handytrax or something small and portable like that for now...

I will be building up my collection soon enough hopefully... I foresee lots of Bukem =)

[kristynkaShelZahav]

great

[STARSKYal]

love it

[fd0198]

Hey, folks. Can someone tell me where I can find this song? I've tried on Amazon and other sites, but it seems the album it came from is out of print. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

[nushnovo]

I thinks it's on his Earth Volume 1 CD- I recommend any of the Earth series 4 some top class tunage!

[fd0198]

Thanks for the info. :)

[esuterik2]

how high can you get from this song?

answer: very high!

[kojimapie]

used to listen to this at 5am walking to work, completly captured the moment

[kema32]

@kojimapie i lived in Nebraska i worked as an corn field irrigation tech and i use to listen to this at 5am with the thick fog and water mist floating around...so beautiful memories

[ltjbukemandpfm]

Like I said before just take it easy and listen to ltj bukem wicked song high in the sky.

[NosferatuZodd9999]
