This is a difficult one.........

I've been trying to ID a DnB tune from about 1995 (heard it on a pirate radio station 15 years ago!!), unfortunately I don't have an actual clip of the tune available so I will try to describe it from memory.

From what I can remember it was quite a mellow/jazzy tune and used the 'humpty dump' break, a flute sample (as also used in Jazz by Roni Size) and some nice Rhodes samples. I think it had a typical deep 808 bass line as well.

I have attached a sample of the humpty dump break and of the flute sample (lifted from the roni size tune mentioned above) as I'm hoping someone somewhere might know the tune just by hearing these sounds. The flute sample was definitely in the tune, I might be wrong about the breakbeat though.

Any help much appreciated, cheers.

Solved at last!!

Solo & Aura - Take Heed (http://www.discogs.com/Solo-Aura-EP/release/15671)

I got the right flute sample, the break was wrong though; It used "Do The Do" rather than "Humpty Dump".
