BT - Smartbomb (Original Version)

[freakindividual]

best part 3:03 to 3:22

luv the whole thing tho

[kamisakea]

Both BT and TCM are great bands, enjoy :D

[vakama94]

what the..fast trip hop? this isn't trip hop, is it?

[ppw00]

@vakama94 BT has his own genre. It's called "BT".

[funnycurly22]

Very nice!!!

[GravianS]

It does sound like a classic TCM track, so it's not surprising people would get that mixed up. It has that same energetic fusion of Breakbeat, Trance and 90s Bigbeat that TCM uses.

[Teknodrome]

BT is my hero!!! IF you haven't heard of him listen to this!!! He'll show what a producer can REALLY do!

[sphinxstone]

I know it's supposed to be "Smart Bombs", but it sounds like "Small Balls"

[frostedglcok]

@sphinxstone LOL

[Jinxxed0]

@sphinxstone thank god im not the only one to notice that all these years.

[fortuzero]

@sphinxstone LOL all I can hear now ;)

[ELtirapeo11]

don't like his trance much, but he has some of the best ambient and chillout ever and others like this breakbeat,... never heard good breakbeat in my life, but this is great

[TheImmortalteq]

FREQUENCY!!!



[weatherallc05]

its not trance sadly but its still class for what it is

[BrokenHorn90]

Listening to BT makes me trip balls. Smart balls.

[RainPoetry]

Is that Mos Def on vocals?

[RainPoetry]

@RainPoetry Maybe not. But does sound like him initially.

[smash4686]

Seems as if BT was a different man to what he has become. 3 massive albums (I wasn't a big fan of TBU) and then complete plop such as Emotionla Technology and These Hopeful Machines. I pray BT hears my cry. Weh.

[tnygarofalo]

@smash4686 This Binary Universe was one of the most intelligent albums I have EVER laid ears on. This guy is known for always trying new things... which just goes to show how awesome he is when he tries something new and totally pwns it.

Yeah... Hopeful Machines couldve been better tho.... more tracks like Suddenly and less like "Love can Kill You" lol

[Kidman7282]

This isn't trance - yes - it wasn't intended to be - it's just pure genius in my opinion - especially for the time. BT is just amazing.

[Aradeine]

@Kidman7282 So true,couldnt have said it better,UNIQUE!

[EAGLE9able]

cool very nice!

[THAWIZZNESS]

just eargasm <3



[reflexdb]

Bt.  Always bringing the beats. He never lets down. Kids these days don't even know.

[deubdx]

'plump dj' mix is better.

[yoshifan277]

Why can't we have this instead of the gay 009 SoundSystem?

[cosmokicksass]

ha, Mungyodance

[DonkeyBallzFire]

this is EPIC



[Hadrhune0]

watch?v=xV9gJoiMIfY

I didn't find credits nowhere, so I suppose this should be call plagiarism

[frostedglcok]

@Hadrhune0 Go here, "btmusic.com/releases/misl.htm­l". US Pressing June 06, 2000. Track 10.

[djlespommes]

BT's style is so easily identified...if you are old enough to have been partying when this came out, you'll have no trouble telling this apart from TCM's music from the same era.

[80MOwgli80]

Not fair it isn't featured on Movement in Still Life I have at home (bought in Europe). Thanks for sharing.

[80MOwgli80]

Not fair it isn't featured on the European release I have at home.

[DanJSchulte]

John Carpenter's GHOSTS OF MARS Trailer music FTW!

[blokenamedbob]

How can people think anyone but BT did this? Buy the US version of his album "Movement in Still Life", listen to track 10, and then calmly STFU. BT made this song, end of story.

[UnrealHelix]

This sounds like a BT & TCM collab. Sickening track :)

[LOLCHATROULETTELOL]

AESTHETIC OVERLOAD! FUAAAAAAAAAAAARK!

[disher4]

Upon further investigation... Those of us who assumed TCM produced this track MAY have gotten that idea from downloading a torrent discography. I found this track in the "Mixed" folder of a TCM discography. Metadata has no info on the original composer. I bet someone just thought this sounded like TCM and dropped it in there. BT is obviously the original creator.

[frostedglcok]

@disher4 Thank you for clarifying

[LOLCHATROULETTELOL]

@disher4 Not only that the vocals say "BT" multiple times.

[disher4]

Crystal Method - Smartbomb - Divided by Night

[TyGold1]

@disher4 BT - Smartbomb - Movement in Still Life

[disher4]

@TyGold1 - Not claiming they produced it, just where it can be found on "Divided by Night"

[Gwuinivyre]

Isn't this song from "Movement in still life" album by BT?

[frostedglcok]

@Gwuinivyre Yes, it was only in the US Pressing and not others. btmusic.com/releases/misl.html

[RainPoetry]

Love this.

[semlohd]

FreQuency!

[mfnkingsnake]

BIIIIIGGG BEEAAAAT.

[cashman28590]

Playin frequency I always thought it was

"Gator drop balls, small balls"

[TomasTommyH]

First of all artist isn't BT it's The Crystal Method dude !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[McDeezy]

@TomasTommyH Wronggggggg. Its BT.

[frostedglcok]

@TomasTommyH Can you provide proof of this please? Here is my proof it's by BT, btmusic.com

[sensationdj10]

@TomasTommyH haha..you suck !

[TyGold1]

Definitely BT

[fightinside1]

first heard this song on the video game wipeout fusion. the original is much better than the remix!

[SWETLJO]

3:03 to 3:22 - WOW !

[Arcanex1982]

@SWETLJO that part is freakin groovy, i wish there was a way to just loop it over and over again

[davidwinfield1]

only 6,951 views?

[Ic3dSh0t]

Awesome song, where'd you get that background?

[frostedglcok]

@Ic3dSh0t Thanks for enjoying the upload. It took me about 10 minutes to find the right one on Google Images. I was scouring until I found the one that I felt best matched the song.

[Ic3dSh0t]

@frostedglcok Any chance you remember what you typed in Google to find it? That picture would make for and awesome desktop background =P.

[frostedglcok]

@Ic3dSh0t I think you're wanting something along the lines of Abstract Wallpapers. Type in Google abstract. It should show up on the second page.

[Ic3dSh0t]

@frostedglcok Thank you very much.

[twilight8996]

FREQUENCY 

[ChaosDrown]

this one is more hardcore than Plumpkin DJs mix ^_^ You gain adrenaline when you hear this song xD

[justbullittko]

Nice

[pivotsforyou]

the Original Version is 100% better then plump dj mix 

[blacknganga]

@pivotsforyou The original Smartbomb sounds VERY dated. The Plumps' version is art on entirely more sublime level. Do you have a taste for trip-hop and 1996 "Big-Beat" do you? I'm not knocking BT's original too much, but come on, heroin, valium anybody?

[pivotsforyou]

@blacknganga nah i like the beat here more

[blacknganga]

@pivotsforyou Yeah, it's one of the best Big Beat/Trip Hop tunes written. It's soul resides in about the year 1999. Big Beat was already in it's last in '99, but this is a well-written tune. Do you like Crystal Method also? The Method pioneered it, The Plumps and BT perfected it with a few others. This ain't it, though, this is like Brian looking back and doing some retro Big Beat tune. I dunno, I suppose some of us like to look forward (techhouse/dubstep), some of us like to look at what was.

[RaVe4EvR122]

@blacknganga I like the original more simply because BT was a pioneer and that gives the track something a little extra. Plump DJ's where also pioneers don't get me wrong but BT has achieved far more than they ever will. Just look at BT's entire works and you will see what i mean =D

[blacknganga]

@RaVe4EvR122 BT turned out three "tasteful" tracks that I'm aware of: "Fibonacci Sequence", "Hip Hop Phenomena" and "Ride". If your little heart is set on this here number, good for you, but don't compare BT to The Plumps. Before Breaks took off in '98, dear Brian was turning his hand to some of the cheesiest trance known to mankind. It would be like arguing about the Plumps with your average punter from America; pointless. The Plumps have produced over thirty cutting edge tracks!

[blacknganga]

@RaVe4EvR122 This here tune is like most "big-beat" and So-Cal tunes before the UK sound took off: dated. Don't get me wrong, I know heaps of people who love to listen to less relevant gear, but it's like thinking the Crystal Method still turned out the goods into the 2000 years; a mistake. Y'all can update yerselves with a healthy dose of TCR, Marine Parade and Fingerlickin'. BT did some outstanding works with the Breaks sound, hopefully he can keep some focus and turn out killer dubstep, etc.

[TranceLed]

Not trance at all, but a great powerful tune it is

[brutaka112233445566]

@TranceLed Ok, Yoda...

[TranceLed]

Not trance at all, but a great powerful tune it is

[h6488]

i learned this song from frequency. and BOY is it hard 2 play sometimes thumbs up if u play frequency.

[TheSanders999]

thank god i found the original, anyone who says 'plump dj' mix is better needs a bullet.

[pivotsforyou]

@TheSanders999 i second that

[RockoJulian]

@TheSanders999 I love them both for different reasons, just depends on taste I guess. I do agree the original is better though.

[Tecnofireman]

this is not the original mix, this is the original version ...

[getasimbe]

this is very much in the breakbeat style ala crystal method and this is NOT TRANCE

[EthanE3Eves]

I never got why it seems like he left a bit more on some of the vocals than seems "right". Lol. "Back on the set on the set and coverin' all bets, ha!-da-" O_o? Either way, I love this song. :D

[TheHikoriOne]

@EthanE3Eves well, that's "POSSIBLE" but highly unlikely. BT is one of those hyper obsessive types that pays attention to every sound fragment down to the 1/60 millisecond. If you can listen closely, he's sampling off of a longer track (Which i don't know, most people don't know, and isn't important to the understand of the song)

[EthanE3Eves]

@TheHikoriOne Very true! Yeah, he has some incredibly technical songs, you're very correct, so it doesn't make sense that it would be an error of some sort, but it just seemed a bit out of place. I know there's more to the sample, that's why it seems awkward at the point it was cut off. I'm sure he knew exactly what he was doing though, he's one of the most talented electronic musicians of our time; electronic or not, he's very talented at what he does and whatever genre he works in.

[Soundkage1]

BT rocks

[AlexCromwellVP]

BT, The Greatest Trance Artist Ever....
