Are you sure? Seems like the original is from 1995 and the remix from 1997:Originally Posted by Benny B

Amazing if you're right though.

Wasn't the term 'two step' actually used in drum and bass before the genre 2 step even existed?

I dunno how often these things really are 'invented' by one producer, wouldn't be surprised if loads of people have the same idea at the same time and its just one tune gets released first...
In any case, the the 2-step beat is just sped up hip-hop beat (which ofc was based on samples of funk/soul)
Maybe there's something interesting to be said re: this vs. the disco beat found in most house music.

I think the hi hat emphasis on the off beat in 2step comes from house and wouldn't be found in hip hop. A of the syncopation and intricacy of the rhythms wouldn't have been found in hip hop until timbaland

Not sure if it was before 2-step garage, but 2-step was used to denote the early NUT/Emotif, Pulp fiction rhythm before 'techstep' was coined. 95/96.
