#1 JUNGLE/DRUM & BASS TUNE EVER!!!

well, atleast in my book. i remember when it came out. Danny Breaks played in an old Chicago marble warehouse. 'Original Boom' was the name of the event. when the bassline drops, you can literally see the sine-waves floating across the room!!!

tune starts off with an angelic intro of synths, which is the sample from Seal's "Show Me."
then with little clock-like tinks of drums. an ominous time-stretched vocal anounces, "WHHHAAAT THE TIIIME YOU HAAAVE FI DREEAD!?!"

.....then a gun shot breaks the silence and the expanded, hollow bassline sound drops & drops very hard. during this era, this bassline was new, raw & fresh. one of the first, if not the first tune to use such a stretched bassline like that. sprinkles of a female vocal claiming something like, "the burning light..." during the breakdown. not sure of that sample.

MUST HAVE in your collection from the kings of B2B crew.
