Nice one. Got any particularly choice finds? Is it stuff that isn’t even appearing on Discogs or YouTube?
J0nathan-
I have found some bits that haven't been catalogued yes! Good stuff too! I've cut down on collecting and it gets flogged on unfortunately. I may regret it one day! I figure it's better in the hands of active deejays than gathering dust in my flat.
Here's a mad one I found last week as an example of what I'm talking about!

Bad boy record!
On a side note, I've been plunged feet first into the world of UKG vinyl over the last year and a bit having been onto a stream of quality collections from people.
Jungle has been incredibly well catalogued, to the extent that barely anything unknown ever surfaces any more.
UKG however still seems to bring out its surprises, and the hungry collectors are rearing to go spending BIG money on rare records.
I think the culture with jungle was generally to press up 300 records as a minimum, rarely just a hundred. UKG on the other hand there seems to be a lot of test pressing only vinyl where only 10-30 were ever made.
Suffice to say I am enjoying digging deep again and learning about genre I hadn't scratched the surface of previously!
