I forget if I posted this documentary yet, but here it is on my buddy Jason’s new site NETWORK AWESOME… Network Awesome is basically a curated collection of youtube clips with all sorts of great old TV shows, music, interview, old ads, etc, linked together.

Steve C & Monita – Razor’s Edge
I’ve already mentioned how good Skeleton Recordings is in a previous post here, and no doubt will mention them again in the future – Skeleton is just a great early hardcore/jungle label with a high hit/miss ratio as far as tunes go. Most of the tracks they put out end up having well produced choppy…
Keen – Volume 2
I think if someone did a breakdown of stuff posted here vs the amount of tunes actually out there, one area I intentionally under-represent is choppy amen tunes. That’s not to say I don’t like them – there’s plenty of classics out there as well as plenty of classic producers (Bay B Kane!) who can…
Criminal Minds – Ghetto Theme (Drive By Mix)
Here’s a later tune by Criminal Minds which is still one of my favorites by them, every bit as good as and similar in structure to the tracks on The Mindbombing LP. It’s been pretty hard to find but some copies have popped up recently in tip-top shape, so here’s one I nabbed that’s pretty…
Skool of Hard Knocks – Kan u Feel It (94 mix)
This tune will probably ring a few bells. Even if the name doesn’t look familiar, it’s been on a couple of big jungle comps over the years, including several on major labels . “Kan U Feel It” actually started out on a release by Dancemaster, one member of Skool of Hard Knocks (though it had…
DJ Panik – Panik’s Revenge
Here’s another good 94 EP, one that’s easier to find than the Junglist EP I posted yesterday. Hyper Records put out some nice early EPs like The X Men “My Sound Rule” EP I posted last year. This is one of my favorites on the label, a 4 tracker with decent variety between the tracks.…
The Junglist – Aliens Pt. 1
Here’s a jungle tune from 94 which sounds more like something from 1992… super low fi choppy breaks + heavy heavy bass. I’m not sure if this is by the same “The Junglist” as on F Project, as the production doesn’t really sound that similar. The Junglist – JSI001 B2
After Dark – Truly One
I dug this out while looking for 94-96 atmospheric stuff to play a few weeks ago… can’t say it had stuck in my head before as that much of a tune. My ears must have not been screwed on properly when I first got this, because this is a TUNE!! No relaxed intro beats or…
Love Dove Jay – The Hitchcock Storey
I’ve been slack on posting releases lately, to make up for it here’s a darkside fav. Choppy beats, classic horror movie samples, and a nasty timestretched breakdown at 4:15 which is one of the sickest this side of Grooverider’s Sinister (Influence Mix) or DJ SS’s Nightstalker remix. Clocking in at over 8 minutes counting the…
Interception – Let Me Know
I’ve had this tune stuck in my head for a week now…. haunting 94 jungle which uses that “let me know” acapella, adding a somber melody which fits the vocal perfectly – an excellent combo which more than compensates for the less than exciting (but still decent) break programming. What makes this so special is…
