"Certainly not radio friendly music at all." That's probably the best brief comment on Gabber I have heard.

Bert on the kick drum made my day.

This surely would have been a great track on "Thunderdome 8" or "Earthquake 5" with a title like "Estuera 909 - Raving Lunatic (Streetfighter Mix)"! And I absolutely love it!

Your love for this genre clearly shines through.

I cant be the only one who still love and want more of this music

YES DUDE!!!! Of all the 'hardcore' or 'gabber' tutorials I've seen on youtube, you're the ONLY one who actually nails it! Excellent job man, you did wonderful!

As a 90s Gabberhead I can confirm, you just nailed it

This is phenomenal. As a kid, i listened to so much gabber and this absolutely nails it - sounds like something straight off of one of the Thunderdome compilations!

Me: Let's watch this video even though I'm not into early hardcore/gabber anymore, just for nostalgia sake.. .. Also me after wathcing the video: Scrambles to find all the stowed-away Thunderdome CD's

Gabber is a secret pleasure music of all serious techno DJs :)

I made all of my Hardcore Releases back in the mid 90’s basically like this. First I sampled everything and put it in an Amiga 500, later with a TR 909, 2 Alpha Juno’s, soundcraft Ghost and a Sampler. Only thing is, the Alpha Juno can make the sound you made with it on its own. Just take the ‘What the…’ preset it has built in. Change the beginning and the end, and voila, the ‘Dominator sound’ straight out of the Juno…

I love how balanced your voice is compared to the music on speakers, truly a top tier audio engineer.

I miss 90s rave culture, so much fun!

Lekker hoor! De meeste producers van tegenwoordig die de oude stijl proberen terug te halen zijn om te janken, maar met deze track kom je wel heel dichtbij het echte geluid van toen! Bedankt hiervoor! 👍🏻

If someone said this was a gabber track from like 1996 I would of believed them, incredible job!!

One of my fav genres gabber finally demystified for me. To think the kick has just been from a drum machine this whole time kills me instead of some over engineered synth sound, but it makes so much since.

The sound of electronic chaos, perfect fit for this era of revolutionary mind-blowing electronic technologies.

I never liked Gabber but still found this fascinating. I suppose when Gabber was getting popular, I was fully in on Jungle at the same time and honestly had no interest in anything with a 4 on the floor but now that I'm older I appreciate a much wider variety of electronic dance music styles.

909 kick with overdrive sounds amazing 606 kick works just as good too but definitely need them 909 hats

Gabba House. Fuckin banging. Jesus the 90’s and early 00’s were just one Mitsubishi blur.

Yeah ! You nailed it !! This track could have been released on a Thunderdome compilation !!

As a music lover I really appreciate the time you spend explaining the history behind the music genre

You have to see how incredible its the gabber in Bogotá, Colombia, its actually a really dense known culture in new generations...

Goddamn this takes me back. You’re a KZfaq treasure, please never stop.

You really nailed this sound.Gabber was massive in Scotland when I was a teenager and this really takes me back to bouncing like a lunatic all over the place! 😊🎶 Great times

The memories of my 90's raving years listening to the music from both Scotland and the Netherlands. Thanks for this!

that ms-20 trick is hawt.

- ravin' Lunatic... - OF COURSE!

Brilliant flashback to the 90s.... Feels like it was yesterday and you made sound like it was yesterday too.... Brilliant work and a brilliant track ... Pumping good .... Well done Jonas ... Loved it .... Now I really want a Disco Buiscut....lol👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🇮🇪

Wow! I wish people were still producing this kind of music :(

From the title I was expecting something on hardware only :D like we were back in the 90s, but at least it's already mostly machines, and only a tiny bit computer. Good job!

After a visit to the Netherland I came home with a thunderdome compilation and well. I was hooked. This was pretty much in the same lane. fun to see how it was made. Never did any drugs, but doing exercise while listening to hardcore was my thing.

Had my mouth open the entire video -- everytime you created the sounds, all those hours i spent in the 2000's listening to this music, it all came back. I got more into new retro wave, vaporwave, and the explosion of indie music in the past decade so its been awhile since i've ventured into the early hardcore music. Going through all of Thunderdome back in middle school was one of the greatest musical moments of my life, as well as experiencing new releases in the mid 2000's with things like Masters of Hardcore. I even have old recordings i made of Masters of Hardcore radio from 2004, which i often listened to in school -- In america, this music is essentially non-existent, so it felt like i discovered some other world when i found this style of music on the Winamp ShoutCast stations. Thanks so much for making this video! never subbed faster in my life lmao. At some point i'd love to own a lot of these synths and musical devices you're using, to at least preserve or try my hand at shaping the magical vibe of gabber into some new shit.

I remember when my homie Nick dropped Euromasters “alles klaar de kote “ (spelling? I’m not Dutch) in a club on Long Island. Half the crowd went batshit for it and loved it. The others stood in confusion. RIP Nicky Father Fingers-[Disciples of Annihilation- Industrial strength records].

As a Belgian DnB producer from Gent who got into electronic music through Music Man, Bonzai etc... your channel is pure Gold 🔥 keep it up mate

So sick. There are still a handful of producers making things with this feel, DJ Technorch "Metalic Mind" is a great example.

I wasn't even that into Gabber (don't shoot me) but this makes me smile and honestly...laugh aloud with nostalgia. Quite a feat my man.

This takes me back to my days, on my 486 with gravis ultrasound card, loading the samples up in Fast Tracker 2, it was awesome, i made many tracks.. only shared with friends tho... i wasn't bad but too shy to ever produce.

That "raving lunatic" sample is awesome! Great vid, thx

That was a walk down memory lane.

If I'd have been a DJ back in the days and someone gave me this as a demo, I'd defo blast it out in every session :D

nice vid! i used to have a stack of thunderdome cassettes when i was a kid in the 90s, wish i still had them. i loved artists like rob gee, neophyte, da predator, omar santana, rotterdam terror corpse, inferno bros, the stunned guys, etc etc... great memories! a personal fav was - buzz fuzz - destroyer, absolute classic

I watched every single batman movie one after the other, JUST to get a 10 second sample I liked for a tune! XD "The fire's rising"

its 1995 . Me living nowhere finland. Real hard underground "Techno" was heard only in radio once a week. Recordstores didnt sell anything else than radio freindly rave like marusha and u96. Couple year later I went to local drift store where i noticed these horror cd covers. i fell love immieadetly to gabber. 20 years later still going hard!

This is even better when played at 1.5x. At high volume, preferably in a residential area 😉

Although I never was into gabber (early german techno is more my thing) this track indeed has a very nice 90s feel to it!!

Damn i grew up in Parkzicht. Entered the place first time the second summer of love 1990 the sammy or samiakjes era. There where pool parties in the back and foam parties inside it was a 'different' sort of cool club right next to a landmark the Euromast. There was a tuff crowd. Rotterdam was always a city of hard working people as a worldharbour town. There was a football hooligan connection aswell. This place parkzicht WAS the place where Gabber was introduced check Parkzicht 1992 is for You. Ofcourse ther was labels everywhere quik.. But it started in Frankfurt (hardcore) and Rotterdam (gabber). And i was luckily there. Im 50 now stil dj and have a spaceship music studio with 909 and 303's ect to play with on my atic)) In my opinion Dj Rob was THE dj when it came to mixing back then in Holland.

Who doesn't like a bit of Gabber every now and then? Awesome!

Okay. 3 things. Thank you for keeping history of 90' s rave culture from being lost. Also, I have the TR8S, and I am so happy to have more people to learn off of. Lastly, I just went into debt to buy an Elektron Analog Heat mkII, and it has a notch filter that you can assign the LFO to, so thanks for the breakdown!

You can call the music genre whatever you want, and you are most likely right, but to me that was some of the best old school techno I have heard in quite a long time...and the music video you made for it was perfect.. Makes me want to pull all my Techno-Rave collection CD's out of the closet now...I have dozens of them...

Bert & Ernie got my like

Part 4:10 hicked pitch comes to mind lateron in that bit. Pretty good bro

That was fantastic. You were totally speaking my language with that track. My tastes have mellowed as I've got older but the hoover sound still rings my bell. I loved the creative use of the MS-20 too.

You really nailed it! Awesome track man.

8.30 that stab pattern is absolutely brutal. Biiiiiiiig up!!

You know a Gabber Tutorial is legit when the jonge spreekt engels like this

Sounds really great ! As a huge Gabber fan since I was a kid, I really enjoyed the song.

Great track. Sounds like back then. Gabber is insane! ♥ And man, the visuals are priceless! Your music and videos always put a smile on my face, and this one is no exception. Love this channel! 🙏

I used to work in Delft/Rotterdam in the early '90s (I'm English) and you could hear this crazy beat coming out of the late night bars on every street it seemed.

Belgium is like the grandfather of all those genres, glad to have witnessed all this in person starting with the New Beat in 1987 ( A Split Second - Flesh, slowed down to 33rpm)

love this series!

i never would imagine myself saying this, but wish i was born earlier, god gabber seems like the coolest shit ever

ArtCore vibes right there!

ugh if only this video was around when i was 16. I simply love this. you even did apotheosis

As usual, a stellar track using the compositional elements of the original genre. Well done. Even the pitching up and placement of the Street Fighter movie sample was spot on. I have watched so many hours of movies and television shows to find little bits from them to sample after seeing it the first time in some random out of the way location or at some unexpected time.

im from uk , started listening to hardcore hard trance in like 1994/5 on rave tapes , first rave was in jan 1997 , gabber (didnt know it was called that back then) we called it all bouncy techno lol was and is my fave along with belgium/german trance sound this tune is basically made from then , you could say to someone listen to track i found from 1995 and they would believe you 100% banging dude , love it subbed off this alone

As a 90s hardcore and gabber dude I'm just grinning like a fucking idiot at this. Fucking yes man!

12:26 "How was your Weekend so? ... YES!»

Superb video mate! We loved a bit of this stuff in Scotland. Bert pounding the drum at 13:04 as the tune is thumping... perfection!

You’re such a legend of a producer!

I really had so much fun watching this video and hearing the Track ... good ol' days 🥰😂

Throwback to 96! Cool vid!

Me now running down to the basement: "Where're all my records from the 90s!"

Very high quality and informative video!!

The sounds of '94 :-D

Brilliant stuff! I knew there was a reason I bought an alpha juno 25 years ago! I knew there was a reason I bought a TR8S last year! Hurrah!

SICK!!! respect for knowing what actual early hardcore/gabber is!!

OK guys who had "Gabber comes back" on his 2021 bingo card? Awww shit... here we go again. Will play it on the next party and it will be an instant hit :D

Takes me back to picadilly key 103 hardcore hour with Stu Allen, RIP

i love everything about this video, thank you for making it!!!

You’re amazing. Very happy I found you. Would love a video where you turn your whole setup around and show a detailed review of how you patch all your synths, drum modules, fx boxes, midi boxes, mixer, computer all together! Great job!! Thank you!

This reminds me a lot of the Ruffneck/artcore sound, good stuff!

Man the result is absolutely amazing! I will definitely use this in DJ Sets in the Future

Love this track and love this 90s genre still to this day

Back in the days we tried to figure out how these signature gabba tunes have been created. When Thunderdome on Tour was at our place we spent more time spotting Gizmo and Rob Gee how they worked on their sets than actually partying 😅Man I should have watched this video back then!

Echt een van de meest underrated producer channels op youtube. k kijk heel erg tegen je op betreffende je kennis van de genres en productietechnieken van mijn favoriete genres. topwerk man. dik respect van mijn kant hier! fantastisch werk, serieus! Jonas je bent één van mn favoriete producers :) Je laat alles zo simpel lijken, maar dat is het niet en je nailed het gewoon. Al stelt het voor jou misschien niet veel voor; geweldig man, echt! Ik kan niet anders dan genieten van je videos terwijl je vertelt wat je doet ❤ ook je 'videoclip' erbij is gewoon fkn perfect oldskool man damn. zo random, zo idioot, damn (dat bedoel ik op een goede manier!). het klopt gewoon ❤‍🔥 dit is het ECHTE geluid van toen. jij bent een OG producer!

Time to pull those old CD’s from the archive again.

Nike Air Max to be more specific :), I was one, I was there, I remember. And this would be banging back then!

Been a bit of resurgence in interest for gabber recently thankyou for doing this not many tutorials on early gabber out there

I have a Mackie CR 1604 mixer from the 90s and it does this distorted kick sound very well.. alot of times, when not even desired (; lol.

Perfect. This track brings back so many memories. You really nailed it!

Thank you once again for being so awesome! I love how you casually explain and show the process and add some history to your videos as well! Amazing! And gabber - it brings me back to my childhood! ❤️

My colleagues are wondering why I'm grinning like a Cheshire cat at my desk :)

I'm to young to have witnessed the early gabber scene myself, but I really enjoy a lot of the music inspired by it (modern hardcore, frenchcore and stuff like that) - I really appreciate the history lesson! :D This sound still slaps today \m/

I love hearing about music history along with the great production!

Brilliant man! Well presented! “You raving lunatic” 👌

This surely gives me nostalgic feelings to the 90's. I remember seeing a documentary on the Dutch TV about gabber and DJ Ruffneck was showing how to do those sweeps on the mixing desk to make the tracks interesting.

Holy crap man, this is awesome! This could have been on any Thunderdome CD, really good. Oh, how that Juno still shreds.. Really good stuff! Would love to see you do a more recent, industrial-styled hardcore track. Subbed!

I am LOVING the historical context stuff. ❤️ Awesome. 👍

I Love the Thunderdome records! Got some in storage. 🙃🙂
