I just grabbed this today and it’s wicked. Bladerunner seems to be one of a few guys who are churning out d&b with a heavy influence from the mid-90s jungle & Bristol style jump up sounds. I am/was a huge fan of that kinda thing and some of the tunes I’ve heard recently have been pretty good. The forthcoming “Back to the Jungle” on Critical is a banger. Listen to that here…

UK DMC champ Blakey has put together a half hour mix of UK Garage classics over on Mixcloud. There are some wicked tunes on here with a few anthems but also a bunch of lesser known tracks. 18 tunes in all in 30 minutes which is pretty speedy going
I have to admit that I’ve never heard the original to this, although I think I’m gonna go and listen to it now. Man of the moment SBTRKT comes with a beautiful remix, reminiscent of his 2020 track. Sadly this one only came out on vinyl so there’s no cheap download option. Definitely worth grabbing, though…
