How to make Playstation Jungle from the 2000s

If you're a music producer and this reaches you, please comment so the vid doesn't get lost on the Playstation side of YouTube 😂

this is literally the best way to make a tutorial its stylistic, relatable, and informative all in a short time frame

Its a blessing to see jungle make a return to light like this after about 2 decades ❤

My sole purpose for becoming a producer was to make the kind of obscure abstract stuff I loved as a little kid, so thanks for this!

I am so glad that jungle and liquid dnb is making a comeback. I listened to a lot of it in the 90's, and I think a lot of it disappeared when big room trance and dubstep hit the scene. It's cool that new, younger creators are coming onto the scene.

As an upcoming producer yet to release songs, this has helped a ton. Chris, you a genius mate

Been trying to produce this style of Jungle for months with nothing proper and this video changed my whole thought process of producing Jungle! Thank you so much Chris, this is the best video I've ever come across for Jungle.

It's great to see this style making a comeback. For me, it never went away. 😊

Such an aesthetically pleasing sound, I love the vibe of the early 2000s game music. Great tutorial, loving the longer form content!

I love how you've got a windows 98 theme, very creative and unique

9ths, 11ths, and 13ths (upper extensions, as they're often referred to) can really add a lot of personality to chords. Another smart way to use them is to remove some of the lower notes in the chord, then take an upper extension and move it down an octave. So you might use 1 5 and 9, but with the 9 brought down to a 2, so your end result is 1 2 5. This is still basically the same chord, but it will have a distinctly different quality to it. Taking notes from a chord and moving them up and down by an octave can give you a lot of different textures out of the same basic notes.

The use of Windows ‘98 and Ableton Live 11 really ties the Playstation 2000’s DnB in a nice pretty bow. Thnx for being one of the few channels to actually explain music production in a fun and digestible way.

I’m on the right side of YouTube now.

It's been years since I last had the urge to attempt to produce a song. This might make me reconnect with that desire I had 10 years ago as a teen to make some DnB.

I’ve watched many tutorials these past few months and by far this has been the one where I’ve even engaged through the entire video

i really wish ppl weren't scared of music theory, but the misconception of it as this prescriptive set of dos & don'ts is so widespread, it makes sense. i've genuinely only felt more liberated the stronger my grasp has grown for real

Such a fun video, and I love the editing style! I've recently started experimenting with putting reverb on drums, it really makes them come to life. One of my favourite techniques is to create a really short but roomy reverb, and dial the mix in so it isn't overwhelming, but makes it sound like you're listening to it from the other end of the room, or from behind a closed door or something. Will definitely be checking out more of your stuff!

Liked your quick, no fuss tutorial style. That's quite an awesome era for Jungle and DnB, I think it helped it go mainstream. Especially with Music 2000 for the PS1. Producers like Grooverider making tunes as demos on the game really helped you to build your own stuff.

I appreciate how straightforward and simple this tutorial is! I am very much an amateur at making music and find these kinds of breakdowns so so helpful; it’s a very useful way to pick up some terminology in a digestible way and understand the “vibes” of certain genres without being overwhelmed by music theory. I also absolutely love your editing style!!!

i’ve literally never heard playstation jungle before. I have, however, been super into retro style video and chiptune things so to have this now is a total blessing, so thank you!!
