Vengent is indeed a legend.

His vibe-rater series is great too.

Ah, I'm glad the demoscene gets a mention. One does not make music on a computer in the 90s without at least some, or possibly a whole truckload of, influence from the demoscene.
https://www.pouet.net/ for modern demoscene hub. who remembers Ojuice.net?
I do, and the original Nectarine radio, Hugi demo mag, Assembly early days, Breakout,....
Feeling oldie. :)

#205If anyone's interested and wants to hear more, I have a mix of 92/93 era Jungle [1] Some rough mixes here and there (especially the first one) because it was live from a NYE event. But it suits the style of music, that era was so raw and fresh, the future was being invented right there! Very happy days :) 1) DJ SS - Intro 2) Higher Sense - Cold Fresh Air 3) Deep Blue - The Helicopter Tune 4) Roni Size - Time Stretch…
Solid selection - I respectfully submit "Hypersleep" as another classic 90s DnB tune. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrR82XLCKq8
Tune!

#206I only had to read the title and immediately knew what the article was about: that breakbeat soundtrack you could hear in countless original Playstation games.

#208An article about jungle music in 90s video games that doesn’t mention Unreal Tournament?!

#209Jungle instantly reminds me of Squarepusher - Feed Me Weird Things from 1996 Tundra is a masterpiece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-G01DKEig14
aaaah, seeing someone recommend a squarepusher album on hn makes my brain mush.

It's just not a real rave until the cops cut the tunes and flip on the the house lights at 3AM. Then you get to run the gauntlet of berries and cherries while saucered and blowed. I do miss what I remember of the '90s.
Cops. Pfftt. Wait till it’s an outdoor event where the entire sheriff’s department rolls up, and all the deputies are holding shotguns watching everyone load back up in their cars to leave. Or when the ghetto bird is loitering overhead with the spot light just to scare the party kids. I know the artist that made the image* used for the inside jacket for the Prodigy says it wasn’t about rave culture, but it’s still on…
