May have already been posted but I have been watching this series. Nice look into history of Jungle & D&B etc
Bought the whole Myor discography for £20 off bandcamp, haven't listened to most of it. Need to get round to it!
On a jungle tip today, that second drop tho ...
As it's only Friday morning I'm on a bit more of a mellow vibe

Let's have a bit of context for the Fixate 'RIP Groove' re-work.
Back from early last year when Sherelle blew up the Boiler Room. The most notorious rewind of recent times.
The mix comes in just after 23:00 mins. Then do like they do and pull a rewind of your own back to the begining of the set. The set is a mash up of Footwork, Ghettotech and jungle. Best set I've heard in a few years.
A cracking mix from 99 that keeps cropping up recently
It's the weekend and this is Pete Technimatic's solo project Wardown. An album based around a childhood in Luton might not sound the most promising start but I'm loving it. Not one for the dancefloor, this is "emotive DnB"
Doc Scott's Essential Mix - oooossshhhhh!!
i like these
😀
Still watching/listening to the London one
Oof
Not only d an b but came across this guy recently. Whatfunk crew
Cool mix of jungle, hip hop and ragga.

Really getting into Jungle a lot more of late. One act whose output I'm really enjoying is Crate Classics! Two lads out of London, one of them is David Rodigan's son!
It's a lot more up to date jungle rather than focusing on the 90s stuff which you find on a lot of online mixes, it's like more relaxed 'intelligent' jungle if you like. They produce their own stuff as well as dj. Here's a recent example, the whole thing is ace. 👌
Please let me know if you listen and enjoy.

Pendulum's best. The breakdown!
More Jungle. British artists leading the way! 🙌🔥
Absolute fire Jungle set from Nia Archives. Put it up on your tele! & turn it up. 😲
it's mint 🔥🔥✨🙌🎃
I've enjoyed discovering Nia Archives.... I'll listen later.
Sensational stuff from Nia Archives. Female DJ's are absolutely killing it on the drum n'bass scene right now. There's a few in Manchester that put so much energy and effort into their performance, making the blokes look (And sound) a bit safe and boring, the girls are definitely showing more imagination right now.
I put it down to them not having to go through the record shop hierarchy bulls**t that used to prevail when sourcing dub plates, promos' and getting gigs etc.
Best set I've seen since Sherelle's boiler room set from a couple of years back.
This came back round on my playlist again recently, I had forgotten just how good it was!!!

This ain't bad. Fred Again did a decent set but it's not DnB!
Marcus Intalex's Fabric Live mix in the car this morning...
And this getting a lot of plays atm
Fred Again did a decent set but it’s not DnB!
Which set is that? Like his stuff.
coincidentally...
Fred Again's track "Jungle" isn't jungle, but it's a banger.
Fred Again’s track “Jungle” isn’t jungle, but it’s a banger.
Isn’t it just.
Which set is that? Like his stuff.
Biggest name on the scene. Covers multi genres, re-licks most of the tracks in his sets, has got the emotional and euphoric balance on lock.
Yeah, I got into him when he was an engineer for Brian Eno. Everything he does has feeling, despite being very minimal and electronic. A bit like Jamie XX. Thanks for the set, will listen tomorrow.
I am practically glue to earbuds nowadays catching up with decades of trans minimalist whatever people called them nowaday. Currently listening to Adonis FR, Ann Clue, Luttrell, Deniz Bul, Above & Beyond and Honzho. Plenty of bass I like.
@Kelvin He's no flash in the pan, he'll be the biggest thing in electronic music by the end of this year. Proper party vibe that appeals to both sexes, unlike some DnB which can turn into a bit of a bro fest out darking each other!
Holy thread resurrection!
I thought I’d post this up as I know there are a few drum n bass heads on here, so I’ve just had this played to me tonight. This is my mates son who’s on the first year of a music degree. He’s put these together.
I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Goldie playing for HOR Berlin. Nice to see one of the old hands on the decks.
This is tickling my fancy right now.
My mate used to call this type of music slow DnB 🙂
Stumbled across this after watching Chase & Status Boiler Room
And here's the C&S
That Mandidextrous set is great, it popped up in the same algorithm for me.
Love the bloke at the C&S Boiler Room who knows the words. Seems like a great nightz I hear Will was stuck in Ibiza airport and was genuinely gutted to not make it.
bit of. long shot but does anyone want to go and see Dave pearce in Stroud tonight? I have three tickets going spare due to people going down sick
Well what about this fruity little banger!
DJ Marky's Radio 1 Drum & Bass Mix on BBC Sounds is worth a listen
It had to be done!
Edit: Apologies, I'm a luddite who can't workout how to embed YouTube videos , or even pictures!
Marvellous 😀 worth reposting to get the embed -
guess the forum video posting is screwed then.... I think YT have changed their share links which is stopping it working.
We need jungle indeed.
Just discovered Sully
I told one of my old mates about that ^^^ single, he came back with 'too slow'. I didn't know what to say to that, just thought wtf.
Maybe he just needs drum n bass 😛
