Tracklist below

As for many people in the mid late 90s, Metalheadz sessions at the Blue Note and their subsequent nights at places like the Leisure Lounge and sets at the Essential Festival etc were hugely influential on me. I've got fond memories of going up to London, hearing the music that sounded so incredibly futuristic at the time (and still sounds fresh today) and record shopping in the various shops and markets. 
Here's a mix along the lines of the really varied sounds I was hearing and buying  in those days from Metalheadz, Prototype, V, Ram, Moving Shadow, Good Looking etc :)

Rinse FM Podcast

Kenny Dope: Strictly Rhythm Takeover: RinseFM UK: September 9, 2017

Hello and welcome to episode 340 of The Everyday Junglist Podcast!!

Thanks goes out to Detroiter, Padeeboi, for his mix that we featured for episode 339!

Episode 340 brings us a mix from a favorite producer of mine, Ricky Force!!

Before we get to the mix, I would like to highlight 3 of Ricky Force's tracks, which I think all of you should pick up. This is going to be difficult to pick only 3, but I'm going to give it a shot. Pick up Special, Severed, and 147, these are wicked, wicked, tunes!!

Ricky's mix is an all vinyl foray that is dark and moody! The first half of the mix features some classics, which the headz will recognize, set between, dark, upfront tunes! The second half of the mix is dominated by amen punishers, dark and deadly! Ricky smashes this mix!

Let's meet our selektah for episode 340, Ricky Force:

RICKY FORCE
Based in Dublin, Ireland, Ricky Force started out on his musical path with the Bassbin crew, playing on legendary pirate radio station Power FM in the late '90s. Taking his cue from the golden era of Jungle and early Drum n Bass, Ricky spent years honing his skills, first on the decks, and then as a producer, but throughout, he stayed true to his passion for chopped-up rolling rhythms, and for the deepest of subs.

Moving to London in the early 2000's, Ricky lived with old friend Fracture, sharing a house previously occupied by Alix Perez and Rockwell. There, surrounded by a new generation of talent, Ricky focused on his production, taking the opportunity to learn and grow as a producer. Since then, he has gone from strength to strength, crafting his music into what is now a very distinctive style - a sound for which he is gaining increasing recognition worldwide. 

Starting off with releases on DSCi4 and 36 Hertz, Ricky has by now notched up more than 20 vinyl releases for original old skool Jungle labels like AKO Recordings, Flex Records, Skeleton Recordings, and the mighty Reinforced - alongside their spiritual descendants at labels like Criterion and Repertoire. Meanwhile Ricky also continues to issue quality jams on his own label Pressin' Hard Records, which has made these limited edition cuts 'buy-on-sight' for connoisseurs of that original Jungle sound. And with support from such luminaries as Randall, Ray Keith, Scar, DJ Stretch, Mark Pritchard and Om Unit, you know that Ricky's tunes are guaranteed quality.

Behind the decks, Ricky's love of the music is evident in the care he takes to craft and deliver a set. Time and again, he's ripped the roof off parties across Europe and the USA: from Boomtown to Bangface, and from Rupture in London to Respect in L.A. Most recently, he rinsed it out at the Skeleton Vs. Repertoire night in London. 

A Ricky Force set always delivers a sweet mix of brand new cuts with timeless classics, bolstered by a few choice esoteric selections guaranteed to make even those who know their tunes scratch their heads. But this is no old skool trainspotting exercise - a Ricky Force set is all about the dance, and Ricky never fails to bring the energy.

Harry Connick Jr. - Artist Advice

The 68th Annual Monterey Jazz Festival will take place at the Monterey County Fairgrounds September 26-28, 2025.

Born in Temple, TX. Raised in Arizona and currently living in Austin, TX  

Musician by heart. 

Influences: 

My Grandad first introduced me to the acoustic guitar. I used to play his guitar and every now and then I’d break a string. But he was always kind and encouraged me to keep playing. 

Later in life at the age of 15 years old while in high school, I joined band class and focused on classical music. Later, but soon after, I ventured off from there onto my own musical journey. 

Spent my early twenties collaborating with friends discovering my sound and genre. 

Performed at various coffee shops and bars in Arizona. 

Spent several years writing original songs and recording just for fun.

I enjoy listening to Fallout Boy, Elvis, Fats Domino, Aretha Franklin, Alan Stone, Bob Dylan, Frank Sinatra, Harry Connick Jr., James Taylor, John Legend, Sam Smith, Lady Gaga, George Straight, Reba McEntire, and many other great musicians.

Favorite quotes, 


“Live life everyday as if it were your last.” 

“We all have to start somewhere.”

“If it is to be, it is up to me.”
