If you’re a Half Life fan like me you’ll instantly recognise Dr. Breen’s friendly yet foreboding welcome to the dystopian City 17 - followed by a Rymetyme mantra, Ed & Op let a warped reese-line explode front and center before thudding neuro drums roll us from side to side - check my bio to hear this tune - VRS007 LP ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #edrush #optical #city17 #halflife #gordonfreeman #wallacebreen #rymetyme #virusrecordings #2009 #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #neurofunk #techstep #reese #jumpup #rollers #liquidfunk #dnbnation #travelthegalaxy https://www.instagram.com/p/B1B1gFaF5bK/?igshid=1x7bamoesdrqb

As far as post apocalyptic D’n’B goes, you can’t get much bleaker than this one - The End Part II sees Ed Rush, Optical and Fierce getting together as Fortran, lowering the tempo slightly (to doomsday speed) bouldering through with solid block beats and adding a wailing banshee who foretells the impending finish before that bloated behemoth of a bassline comes in - I remember this one fondly from Dark Forces, a yearly Halloween rave in my home town (listen to the tune through the link in my bio) - 31R-006 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #edrush #optical #fierce #fortran #search #theend #part2 #docscott #31records #1998 #bleak #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #dnbnation #dnbfamily #vinylcollector #blackwax #recordstoreday #vinyladdict #ravemusic #darkforces #dnbmusic https://www.instagram.com/p/BwNS1YTFR-h/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=47lmvrnl7cc8

Y2K was an amazing year for D’n’B, as we all knew it would be - especially for the likes of Ed Rush & Optical, hot on the heels of their 2nd album came a couple of deadly singles - Capsule is a funky hardcore rave throwback minus the smilies, twisting itself around rolling breakbeats - a very worthy tune to back the A side! And the cover art goes VERY deep into alien chemical compounds...

You all know the one - it goes “wubub wubub wubub wububub-wub!” .. legend has it the tune is inspired by/samples Herbie Hancock’s Watermelon Man. It’s funky as hell and slides nicely into many an Andy C set, basically since it came out 20 years ago!
