Anyone around when the Jungle was massive in the UK?

Oooof that's a quite drop 👍 nice one

Enjoyed both of your mixes, really good.

Great to hear! So many fantastic tracks in those last two sets. Trace, Final Chapta and Source Direct, Complexities especially.

Nookie coming out on Headz

Anyone seen anything interesting coming out on Bandcamp tomorrow? Think I might get one of the Harmony Deep Jungle records.

Why is DJ Rap touching the EQs so much?

I wonder about that with a lot of DJs. I sometimes find my hands skirting around doing nothing - just checking and double checking. Don’t wanna slam the fader across and only then realise the bass is still cut off.

Rap is on so many heavy, heavy tunes. https://youtu.be/9AHBOTjPH-8

Grabbed the full EP: https://deepjungle.bandcamp.com/album/dat033-harmony-up-in-smoke-dark-matter-piano-soul-moonshine

A little playlist I did of some of the more surprising tracks to be found on Spotify.

^^ and^ thanks mate
oh and your steppers mix you did have really helped me through my knee rehab been my go to mix for physio sessions and now my v slow run walk mix :)

Glad to be of service! Heal fast 😁

The female vocal mix is up. Give it a spin 😁

If anyone wants the download link I’ll post it up in a coupla days

Shoulda put this in the stepper mix. Oh well, reason to start assembling a new setlist...

https://youtu.be/aJMZsgDCl4o

Stepper part 2.... Yes please 👍🙏

Pulled out a bunch of records for it yesterday 😁

Will do that mix after another digital mix I started organising last night. Mostly brand new stuff, and most of which is Trace. Seems absolutely on another level to everything else I’m hearing right now. I mean check the drop on this... simple, but just too god damn groovy.

Here is the downloadable link of the female vocal mix for anyone who wants it:

And finally, I recorded a vinyl mix of 02-04 drum and bass. This is going to be a bit of an acquired taste, but interested to hear if anyone likes it (or not). This spans a couple of years towards when I stared to stop buying new stuff because I didn’t like it. Clownstep was taking off and a lot of the dark and heavy stuff sounded silly and juvenile. There are plenty of tracks off the EPs that some of these tracks came from that sound like absolute hilarious garbage, hence most of the records go for £2-£3 on ‘cogs. That being said, these tracks represent some of the cream as far as I’m concerned. Spot the Trace tune in there, and Keaton was putting out some of the best stuff at that time. It starts off more steppy, then it gets trancey before getting ameny and darker.

Just uploaded a new jungle mix of tunes I bought in the last few months. There should be a darker mix to follow if I pull my finger out.

Nice one. Some wicked tunes in there.

On a Doc Scott vibe today, as I often am.

Check this tune out. I have it on a whitelabel that I bought for a couple of quid without being able to listen. Glad I took the punt. I really must study and buy more Precious Materials.

https://youtu.be/5kr43s8Od6A

I wonder what post 808 will end up being?

What immediately sprang to mind for obvious reasons is Moving 808s. I don’t really know why I have it and can’t remember getting it, but I’ve listened to it a few times since this post and it’s starting to grow on me.

Grabbed some vinyls today. The Octave One 12” I posted up thread, some Wax Doctor and a Precious Materials. Another intelligent mix beckons...
