#24If anyone's interested and wants to hear more, I have a mix of 92/93 era Jungle [1] Some rough mixes here and there (especially the first one) because it was live from a NYE event. But it suits the style of music, that era was so raw and fresh, the future was being invented right there! Very happy days :) 1) DJ SS - Intro 2) Higher Sense - Cold Fresh Air 3) Deep Blue - The Helicopter Tune 4) Roni Size - Time Stretch…
Nice selection!
One of the things I noticed with a bunch of the younger producers is that they make really nice tunes but they don't bother with the whole intro/outro thing so there's no buffer on either end of the track to mix the thing unless you go add them yourself before even attempting to get them in with a bunch of older choons meant for mixing. like this is great [1], but 1:34 minutes lmao what? On the other hand people who have been at it since the very early days are still quietly releasing alot, here's some secret dillinja cuts [2]

#25I don't know much about Jungle music, but I do know a lot about video games, and I want to shout out the Neo Geo game Shock Troopers. One of the best top down run and gun games ever made, and I'm told it has a Jungle/DnB soundtrack.

#28Another game with a cool jungle soundtrack is "Trick'n Snowboarder". The game itself is unremarkable, but I still remember the music to this day. For example, check out https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=38yTPVGqj8c&t=369s or https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=38yTPVGqj8c&t=1477s
