    Hey. This is a complete longshot.

    Being an idiot, I threw out all my cassettes when I was about 19. One of them was a live recording of an old jungle/rave thing/event/club called "Hellraiser"

    Lots of original Jungle vibes, bmore breaks etc, amen stuff, complete with UK MC giving it a load of "Raise your arms in the airrrrrr" ....."RUSHHH".. etc

    Anyway, there was a track which sounded like an Irish Trad song, sped up, and put to a jungle bed. I have no clue who it was. My brother reckons it might be someone called "Bumble" but I'm not sure.

    I have no idea of the lyrics, but they sounded something like:
    "Oh once upon a time,
    the place I used to go,
    until, ...
    in the land before I lay"

    (something like that, maybe)

    Here is my very bad quick recreation:

    If anyone has any idea of the track/artist, even the original trad song, please let me know.
    :)
    Thanks.

    PS - I didn't put this in the general music track ID thread because it's kinda "specialist".

    Hey.

    Thanks for confirming that there was indeed an Irish act called Bumble.

    I tracked down the one I was looking for in the end.
    It was in fact DJ Seduction - Sub Dub.

    By the way, I just discovered, Bumble did use the same trad song for their version, so you were right, but I just had a different version in mind.
