Ok people, help me out here.

I want to find some proper JUNGLE. Not repeat NOT D’n’B. I’m looking for the stuff right at the back of your vinyl boxes. You know what i’m saying, not quite Old Skool, not quite Jump-up, but the rolling stuff aroung 94/95/96. I entered the dance scene just in the transition from jungle/jump up to D’n’B, so I don’t know any names, but not the usual ‘anthems’ that get banged out (eg: original nutta.) Kinda darker stuff, bass-wise, But its gotta be ROLLIN’. So any names/ tunes that anyone knows, (I’m thinking Mickey Finn/ Aphrodite, etc) And where the hell I can get hold of some!

Also, similiar request for really good DUB. But I know fuck all about that, just know what I like……

This is your mission, should you choose to accept it!

easy.

Well. Djvu would probably be the expert on the subject but heres a couple to keep you going. Check out SS and Omni Trio.

Oh and Johnny Jungle.

And check out anything on dejay recordings and Basement Records (basement has a bit of old skooly stuff on but plenty of classic jungle too)

Oh and check out the earlyish moving shadow stuff from about shadow#30 onwards.

Hope that helps. Don’t know anything about dub sorry!

For dub,try Lee Scratch Perry-anything from the Black Ark period,the compilation ‘Arkology’ is a good place to start.
Also try some King Tubby,Augustus Pablo,The Mad Proffessor,African Headcharge,Audio Active…lots of good stuff on On-U Sound

I HOPE THAT YOU FIND ALREADY SOME VALID NAMES FROM THE JUNGLE SCENE. I’M NOT REALLY CRAZY FOR IT BUT I CAN SUGGEST YOU MAYBE “DJ VIPER” ONE OF THE MOUST POPOULAR JUNGLE DJ’S.
LET ME KNOW IF YOU ENJOY HIS MUSIK.

for a really wide range of excellent dub, check out dub-hunters “bloodand fire samplers”; a Manchester outfit that search for 7″ from good dub artists that had only a minimal original pressing/release, then they compile ad re-release. look for “Dub Wise and other wise” albums.

Also, lots of very good current artists on Dub Head Recordings…look out for Love Grocer (sexy sprouts? lettuce hope not)

hope that rocks your boat

oh, and btw, if you want some really rolling old jungle, this might be older than you asked about, but in my humble opinion you can’t go wrong with…drumroll please (oh, no need, kicking beat already)

Genocide II, Narra Mine
Genocide II, Death of a Kamakaze

can’t go wrong
