    I'm sure y'all know about the roots of hip hop. Sampling, drum breaks, DJ's and MC's. The roots of jungle are similar in a lot of aspects, utilizing drum breaks, sampling, etc, except it grew out of the breakbeat hardcore/free party scene in the UK.

    The style of music is meant for DJ's to mix at parties, so a lot of the song structure reflects that. It's better to listen to in mixes imo.

    Goldie was also briefly engaged to Bjork

    There's also a Good Looking Records (Bukem's Label) documentary from 1996 on youtube. The label manager is a complete jackass. It's like watching mid 90's rave Spinal Tap

    Lots of early rave influence on this one^ Rave stabs

    If you can get your hands on a copy online, I came across a CD called Rumble In The Jungle on the Soul Jazz Records label years ago.

    Really dope selection on there, very much the ragga influenced side of Jungle

    this had to be sampled. especially that beginning. could see pharell flipping this or azalea rapping on this

    Jungle pads were typically sampled off of sample CD's, movies (shout-out Bladerunner ), ambient songs, or just sampled off hardware.

    Instead of writing a chord progression, a lot of jungle artists would record a Gmaj7 chord from a dx7 or something, then put it in a sampler and play a progression that way. This is also why the Reese's sound like they are going "faster" at higher notes, because they were pitched up in a sampler

    Me being a fan of the toonami bumps, Ridge Racer vibes and razzieq6, the spacy, electro world it creates before going on a maddening drum kick journey is the s***.

    I just now have a genre to dive into

    Source Direct was also

    I'll see if I can find the doc they were in right before they broke up

    Edit: found it

    Entire doc is good. At some point Photek is driving a Ferrari to his super small house legend

    "are u in school"
    "I just kinda like to smoke cannabis"
