Our Top 20 Favourite Ram Tunes. EVER.

53 Replies, 23458 Views

It's fair to say that Ram Records is possibly the most popular drum & bass label of all-time. Still going strong after nearly 20 years they have the sales and the awards to prove it. So we thought it about time to run through our favourite 20 Ram tunes...

I can't believe Shimon-genetix didn't get in, or predator.

Yep, me too - big fave of mine.


The Big Bang (Remix) by Flatliners too Slayer
Err, I like a lot of them. Oops As well as the ones already mentioned I quite like Atlantis, the Truly One remix, Cause and Effect and Turbulence. RAM has going for about 18 years now so I guess making a top 20 is always going to be down to personal taste.

In my top 20 I'd have one or two tracks from RAM 3 (1993) such as these...




I'd never heard that Chase & Status tune before. Pretty cheesy but still quite nicely done. Controversially, No Reality never did it for me even though everyone seems to really like it. That bass is just over the top. And I can't listen to Valley of the Shadows any more, I bought it when it came out and it just sounds like a novelty tune to me, a catchy riff repeated ad infinitum. Smilie08sim

The Fresh tune at 11 in the list and the Sub Focus tune at 5 are just plain shite though.

Yes
Do not want Smile

However, used to like

for me cool down, truly one, valley of the "overcained" shadows, the beginning is about the newest Lol

i don't think i could stretch to 20
BASS LOGIC EP

Without doubt my fave ram release

also cannot forget:

the touch (HARDCORE!!!)
valley of the shadows (HARDCORE!!!)
take your mind, elevate ep (HARDCORE!!!)

beyond bass
6 million ways to die
roll on
cool down
sound control
the big bang
predator


the last ram release i was really into was the speed of sound lp


no desired state!!!
If I never hear Valley Of The Shadows again it will be too soon
Titan, stone cold classic. Incoming is equal though.

Always going to be tunes missing.

16. Moving Fusion - Atlantis (Bad Company remix)
14. Concept 2 - Cause N' Effect
12. Andy C - Roll On
9. Moving Fusion - The Beginning
8. Shimon & Andy C - Quest
7. Ram Trilogy - No Reality
6. Ed Rush & Optical - Pacman (Ram Trilogy remix)
2. Ram Trilogy - Titan

All great tunes.
