Woke up to 6000 followers so I thought I'd do an upload to mark the occasion.

It's unseasonal, but humour me. For the fourth 'Summer of '94' mix I wanted to get away from the mild beardstrokiness of preceding editions and bring it squarely back to the music I was hearing, buying and loving that summer. Obvious I know - but it never ceases to amaze me how music fixes memories in the mind. Forgive the stream of thought, but this selection takes me from summertime house parties in the posh suburbs, my final trip to Glastonbury (cheers Dad for the VIP privileges and the lift home, RIP x) ... to a two-week family camping holiday in France, soundtracked with a legendary DJ Sy cassette (acquired from aforementioned festival) and Dextrous' outstanding Time To Move/Rapid and the EZ Rollers 12" on repeat (freshly bought and hastily taped off while packing). All of this interspersed with Roni & Krust's regular shows on Galaxy Radio and live at Ashton Court ... and the girls, fuck's sake don't get me started, what it was to be 18 ... then into the Autumn with the Dreamscape XII tape pack, starting Foundation Art at UWE and meeting fellow junglist aficionado Olly G and his little bro Ell. Mate, weren't those just the best times? Must give a shout into the void to our alumni (lol) Chas, Toby, Donna & Nic and the hilarious double act of South African junglist Andy and his Spanish mate Damien - this was back in the pre-internet days of Chinese-whispered song IDs, and I can't forget Andy's stoned enthusiasm for 'Cool Fresh Air', 'Good Vibrations', 'Cool Runnings' and of course the killer 'she said the jungle, came alive and took it'... all present and correct in this mix. God I could talk endlessly about it; and you probably don't need to know about all the activities this music soundtracked - Mike M driving us to Weston-Super-Mare for some of the worst chavvy grab-a-granny nights I've been to, concussing myself running into a patio door (classic), watching endless Steven Seagal videos, playing SF2 on the SNES until sunrise. But I'm sure you can relate in some way? :)

Cheers everyone for all the support, comments, reposts etc, and as ever enjoy the mix!

Summer Of '94 Jungle Selection (Part 4)

The Late Nights at Speed mix was put together by producer and DJ, Daniel Maunick otherwise known as Venom. With connections to labels ranging from Ibiza Records to Talkin Loud, Daniel was heavily involved in the 90s drum and bass scene producing his own music and teaching artists how to use samplers and recording equipment.

This mix is inspired by his visits to Speed at the Mars Bar, the legendary night led by LTJ Bukem and Fabio.

Sonar's Ghost presents "92 Chipmunks & Early Jungle". A mix and blend of "acceptable" pitched up female vocals and seminal pre-jungle reggae fusions.

The selection is a celebration of the unity and diversity of the early rave/pirate scene packed with euphoric breakdowns and overflowing with deep basslines.

DJextreme - 1994 Jungle / Drum & Bass [Jungletrain Mix EXT063]

I've wanted to make this mix for almost 30 years; the tunes just didn't exist for it back then. Danny Breaks' "The Bear" blew my mind with its dark, electric jazz funk that fused Miles Davis with early Wu-Tang RZA. But in '96, it was sui generis, so it sat in my crate awaiting partners in crime.

In years since, I've tracked down other tunes with similar nocturnal menace. This isn't nostalgic "jazzy jungle" of keyboard presets and video games; it's shadows and criminals and blood-stained suits.

Some of the most exciting music in this vein is San's work for Rua Sound. The EPs are the closest thing I've heard to late '90s Source Direct, after they tipped headlong into darkness. SD-associated Odysee Recordings also carries on this spirit. Ornette Hawkins, with two tracks here, is the jazziest junglist out there; fellow AGN7 Audio artist Dacamera isn't far behind.

Fanu's criminally underrated collaboration with Bill Laswell gets one track here, but the whole album is worth hearing, full-on electric Miles worship. Speaking of which, the one tease here comes not from dnb, but from techno, Oliver Ho's mystical, millennial Miles invocation. Finally, the incomparable Sci-Clone presents two flip sides here - no anthems, just back alley vibes.

Track list is below. Enjoy!

00:00 DJ Die - Reincarnated (Full Cycle, 1997)

27:51 Sekl - Control Signal (Fanu Remix) (Make or Break, 2021)
30:34 San - Last (Rua Sound, 2023)
33:40 J Majik - Arabian Nights (Metalheadz, 1995)
37:44 Source Direct - Black Domina (Science, 1997)
