I’m not usually a fan of bootleg mixes of classic tunes as they’re rarely good. There have been a few good ones, such as the black label mix of Johnny L’s Hurt You So but on the whole they should be avoided like the plague. SBTRKT is a badman and it’s no real surprise that his take on Goldie’s Timeless is actually pretty decent. I approve.
Big old skool reggae tune from OG Cutty Ranks who has far too many badman tunes to his name to put them all up here. All about the explosions in the background
I found this on D1’s Myspace when trying (and failing) to find the name of another of his new tracks that I’ve been hearing on radio a fair bit recently. Top stuff as usual but something a little different on this track with no beats in sight and lots of atmospheric pads. Lovely
Big tune hidden away on the flipside of DJ Hype’s very well known Roll The Beats. I’m a bit bored of that one so usually flip the 12″ over for this little beauty.
Big jump up tune from around ’97. This one used to get battered on the pirates. Pretty piss poor on the production and super simple but the intro rules and the drop always gets people one foot skanking. Love this era and style of jungle, purely for the dancefloor, just good vibes.
