Rebel on the Roots Corner – RCola Remixes

JungleX — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 23:28:19 +0000

Selecta Cab (France) sent over RCola his Tippa Irie dubplate voicing of “Rebel on the Roots Corner” and said “Do your rub-a-dub ‘ting on this badman!”

Since RCola didn’t have access to Tippa’s original music, he produced his own reggae riddim: Irie Rebel, then remixed that to create his Jungle version of the tune.

Upon completing the work, he sent an mp3 to Tippa, who promptly enlisted RCola to do a remix for his upcoming “Free” EP, and later gave RCola permission to release his “Rebel on the Roots Corner” remixes as a digital single.

Sasha Khan (UK) – Symbols EP

JungleX — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 18:10:08 +0000

Sasha Khan (East Midlands, UK) is interested in all things Jungle / DnB / Breakbeat, and has been producing electronic music since he first got his hands on a drum machine and 4-track tape recorder.

Sasha Khan’s inspiration for his Symbols EP was drawn from early 90′s Jungle Techno and Hardcore; up-dated with modern Drum and Bass production techniques and Synthesis.

The lead track, “Love Song” is a gentle nod towards “The Lighter” by DJ SS, which sampled 1970′s film “Love Story“‘s theme. “Infinite Possibilities” makes use of a repetitive bass riff and chopped Amen’s; layered with other breaks. Finally, “Questions” was inspired by Derby-based d’nb producer: DJ Theory.

Iron Shirt Recs 04 – Ghost Note – Vespertine EP

JungleX — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 21:45:56 +0000

Ghost Note (Tauranga, New Zealand) comes from a musical background of dark garage, ambient and minimal techno roots, and builds tunes based on the bare essentials of dubstep: sub bass, atmosphere and scattered hi-hats.

Purposely avoiding the ‘over-production’ style currently favoured by many artists in this genre, Ghost Note instead goes for a more raw and organic sound that lets the emotion of the music come through. Over-used robot noises and wobbles will be hard to find in his tunes, as he focuses instead on bass weight and percussion.

Ghost Note’s sound ranges from sparse meditative tunes (à la Kryptic Minds), to more upbeat (Truth-esque) skankers with the addition of melodic tunes influenced by future garage rhythms. Enthusiasts of bass music are sure to find something they enjoy on Ghost Note’s “Vespertine” EP.

Jungle Sound Test EP – DJ L.A.B. (UK)

JungleX — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 19:47:25 +0000

Inspired by the wealth of underground dance music played at local free parties in the UK, DJ L.A.B. first started producing in 2000 at the age of 16. He quickly found an affinity for jungle above all other styles; and heavily features reggae hooks, deep basslines and cut-up breaks in all his tracks.

Influenced mainly by early jungle and hardcore records, DJ L.A.B.’s Jungle Soundtest EP has a distinct old-school sound; ranging from the classic pads of “Where Did That Come From” to the heart-stopping bass and uplifting reggae vocals of “Soundtest” and “Big & Ready“. Nickynutz steps it up with a storming remix of “Soundtest“, which is sure to get everyone on the dancefloor.

Chapter One In Dub – Erbman Hustlin (UK)

JungleX — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 17:10:00 +0000

Southport‘s Erbman Hustlin has come into his own as a producer over the last two years.

With previous releases on Step Express, Knowledge and Wisdom, and JungleXpeditions, he has made a name for himself with quality tunes that explore the smoked-out side of breakbeat science.

“I try to produce music that I want to hear in the clubs. A lot of them are influenced by reggae/dub, jungle or soul, and sometimes a mix of all three. I always make sure the tunes I make sound weighty on the sound system, as a good bassline will always get the ravers moving.”
(http://moarmusique.com)

His second EP for JungleXpediitons “Chapter One in Dub” is a study of rough and rugged dubwise music and sits perfectly between ragga-jungle and drum and bass.
