Critical’s Classic Corner Valley of the Shadows [Origin Unknown]-Sounds of Life [Pendulum]

Criticals Classic Corner #010 this week with Valley of the Shadows [Origin Unknown] and Sounds of Life [Pendulum].

Valley of the Shadows is probably one of the most played tunes in the history of the Drum and Bass scene. With its beautifully melodic intro building into the Amen breaks and the iconic “31 seconds” and “Felt like I was in this long dark tunnel” samples Origin Unknown [Andy C / Ant Miles] really created a masterpiece. The simplicity of the tune brings a complexity of true passion for the DnB music.

Sounds of Life starting off with a snappy, crisp snare and drum fill brings a room to life in mere seconds. The synth sneaking in and the the vocal drop are all a clear synergy of the vibe Pendulum brings in their tunes. This tune is defiantly in a battle for top spot on the Hold your Colour album.

Valley of the Shadows [Origin Unknown] available on Beatport from Ram Recordings and Sounds of Life [Pendulum] is available on Beatport from Breakbeat Kaos.
