Anyone around when the Jungle was massive in the UK?

Damn. Would love to dig through those. Sort of related, do you follow Bryan Gee on IG? He frequently puts up loads of clips from his dub collection.

Also on IG, this is a great nostalgia feed: https://instagram.com/the_jungle_archives?igshid=16pqmud610dto

Been digging through deep tracks this morning. Need to put together another deep mix but seem to be struggling for time again since I’ve started a TrainerRoad programme. Think I need to book some days off.

Got some time off soon where I’m going to record mixes all day - including the female vocal one I’ve been thinking about doing forever. Any requests?

Riddim! There will be nuff Dillinja. Nuff.

A bit like the jumpin Jack frost blue note set at dingwalls.

I revived my old iPod library if you are after any old mixes. Got quite a few blue note ones

JJF one is very crunchy though

Nice one! Any Doc Scott or Randall?

Frost is up on the latest Subbase podcast as it goes: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3zHY2lkVXZznqKAactpTMz?si=kpSGoQVERkaXx2kqZ_4YRg

I've got a Randall one and a few Scotty ones. Some have lost the title, but there's probably 15 odd blue note mixes.
Fabio and Cleveland watkiss is a good one

Here's the list

This is getting a repress. Gets hyped all the time but I always glossed over it because it’s been so expensive to the point of me never bothering to get invested in wanting it. Will have to properly have a listen now...

Just done a little proof of concept using my Denon DJ box. A full mix using no speakers - all just using headphones and split-cue. So was able to move around the house and stuff and not make any noise. I haven't even listened back yet, I just copied it off the SD card and converted the WAV file it creates into an MP3 and uploaded it.

Will check 👍👍👍

How you finding the new denon thing???

I’m pretty in love with it.

My day is so squeezed right now - I’ve only ridden outside once this year so far and I’ve set the turbo and had to take it down before using it due to work/family life encroachments more times than I’ve actually done a session.

So it’s become a bit of a hobby lifeline as it’s so convenient, quick and discreet.

If I record a vinyl mix, it will take me a couple of hours or so over a couple of days of picking a long list of tunes and whittling it down. Then I need to actually set aside time when I can make noise to actually record it.

With the Denon it’s much faster to just add tracks to a crate, preview them, look at how the keys match, sort them, try out how they mix. And I can record a set basically in silence, while being physically present in the front room or whatever and interruptions don’t feel quite so much like they’ll immediately end the recording session.

That’s before all the functionality of it, which I’ve only really scratched the surface of. I love all the effects and capabilities, but am taking a softly softly approach, as that kind of shit gets really tiring and annoying when it’s overdone in sets, imo.

Good stuff I've always struggled with headphone mixing but have never had any thing that was set up properly just a work arround so there was always a delay in what was going on.

Split cue is a game changer for me. I wish the mixer in my vinyl set up had it. Prob the next thing to upgrade.

This says it’s easy to hack it, but actually reading it, it sounds like a long winded bodge: https://djtechtools.com/2020/01/29/how-to-make-a-diy-split-cue-in-almost-any-mixer/

Well I managed to get around to this and am really happy with it. Epic, epic, epic deep dark space and ocean depths business. I really want to cruise on the motorway to this one.
