Did he use a computer to sequence the breaks, or did he use
samplers?

Some of the break edits sound bad.

i have no idea... i d/l this somewhere around 97? i
believe... this song is kinda old y'kno? you wont catch any
interpolated or (more) complex rhythms, like edIT or the
likes. its just simple danceable/dnb :)

I read in Future Music that he, or rather his engineer Rob
Playford, used samplers for the breaks.

I'm not sharing the high regards for the album. I think it
has aged badly, and is a bit boring (the 2cd one). Infact, I
never really liked it .Inner City Life is nice though, I'll
admit that.

goldie only invents music, and then gets ppl to play it. on
a live gigs he had, his machines were full of stickers that
showed him when and where he should push which buttons - so
musically hes lame. he just sometimes has these brriliant
ideas.

and timeless is one of the best dnb ever, fact.

I'm not expecting "mad IDM flavours" or anything, I was just
wondering. I love some of the old dark Metalheadz stuff from
96/97, like Hidden Agenda. I still listen to drum & bass
today, though a lot of it is really bad.

Ah, I figured so. It just kind of sounded like it in parts.
Not a big deal, though.

a great drum n bass album of its time and still good today
i'd say, goldie didnt touch a thing tho , he told rob
playford what he envisioned it to sound like, so it explains
why his next album minus rob wasnt half as good

ex lover of bjork appartently and one time star of
"eastenders" .. oh what heady heights he's acheived these
days, but he was good in "snatch"

He was good in "The world is not enough".

I wonder how the conversations went between Goldie and Rob
Playford.

"Do a bit right that goes, ksh kshs kshs kshs and then a
brrrrrrrrrr"

"Alright Goldie, what about this?"

"Nah mate, nah mate, nah nah nahhhhhhhhh you caaannt, more
kind of kosk kosh kosh, then pay one of those session birds
to warble over the top a bit, luvveerly".

some of the synths on this LP sound really dated - not
necessarily in a bad way though.

I remember reading an interview with Goldie where he
described his working process as him drawing pictures of
what he wanted the track to sound like, and then getting the
engineer to help him make it a reality.
