Jungle Came Back and Brought Friends
Read more . . . →I’ve got two browser tabs open and neither one is work. One is a jungle EP from a speed garage producer. The other is Nia Archives’ second album. Both came out this summer. Both are the reason my neighbours now know what an amen break sounds like. 1. Conducta - Soundboy Johnny Rolling breaks, Reese bass that wobbles properly, and Conducta’s tag sitting right on top. His Soundboy Johnny EP came out on Nia Archives’ Up Ya Archives label in May, and the title track is three minutes of a garage producer making jungle without losing the swing from his...

Two tracks from the man standing in the middle of all of it. 1. KETTAMA - Pretty Green Eyes (Sunset Ibiza Mix) He took Ultrabeat’s trance classic, ran it through speed garage, and turned it into the Ibiza anthem of the summer. Nine Monday nights on...

There’s a house record on a Ninja Tune imprint that sounds like it was assembled across three time zones at once. Two tracks this week with no fixed address, and both of them are better for the homelessness. 1. Skrillex, Randomer, Blawan & MC Dricka - Thistle This was floating around DJ sets for years before its proper release in May, and the wait was the right call. Blawan’s shredded metallic textures, Randomer’s chopped drum programming, MC Dricka’s Brazilian...
