Jesta-Everyday Junglist Podcast-Episode 456

Stalwarts of the drum & bass scene for nearly three decades, London duo Loxy & Ink open up their 2022 account with a new single ‘Spray Trains Of Thought’.

The UK breakbeat pioneers have racked up an arsenal of releases for breakthrough labels such as Metalheadz, Hospital Records and Renegade Hardware, as well as their own Cylon Recordings and Architecture Recordings imprints. Their sounds have been brought to countless dancefloors around the globe, and the pair have held down residencies at pivotal nights such as Metalheadz Blue Note sessions, Fabio & Bukem’s Speed and Renegade Hardware’s parties at The End.

Having already flexed their hip-hop credentials on last year’s ‘Manifested Visions’ on R&S, the duo return with another blazing lyrical delivery and raw production. Drawing upon their influences from artists like KRS One, Rakim, Wu-Tang Clan, NAS and Mobb Deep, ‘Spray Trains Of Thought’ hits hard, as astute rhymes come thick and fast over tenacious beats and brooding horn blasts, proving that Loxy & Ink have the versatility to work across genres with ease and always deliver some serious musical heat!

Accompanying track ‘Channel’ find Ink and Loxy back in familiar break beat territory, as they team up with regular collaborator, the Finish producer Resound, for a textbook heavy stepper. Innovative breaks and throbbing bass frequencies hurtle forward at breakneck speed, with its vocal elements providing the warmth and soul in this smouldering production.

Law - Delusions [Unreleased Beats Vol 1]

Label: CNVX
Artist: Kid Drama
Title: CNVX026 - CRYSTALLINE EP

Track Listing:
01 - Long Winter
02 - Crystalline
03 - Timelapse

Cat No. CNVX026
Release Date: 25.11.22

Label owner Kid Drama returns to CNVX after the well received Warm EP.
Keeping with the same aesthetics as the former release "Crystalline EP" see's Drama slowing down the tempo again leaving more breathing space. Intricate breaks and bass sit amongst hypnotic icy melodies and enveloping ambient chords. As much at home in the headphones as a club rig. Quality over quantity everytime

PREMIERE: Kid Drama - Timelapse (CNVX)

Digital's Dirty Dubs Vol 1 - Function 54

Digital searches through old Dat tapes and hard drives for unreleased music and combines them with new tracks for Digital's Dirty Dubs. Volume 1 features Spirit, DJ Ratty & Nick EP.



1. "Motherland Dub"

Motherland Dub is a heavier dubbed-out mix of Digital's 'Motherland'. Haunting, eerie vocals glide over pitched-down chunky breaks and serious deep subs that will pummel your bass bins.

2. "Dread Life"

"Dread Life" combines a moment from an '80s reggae dancehall session with jumping breakcore grooves and wobbling bass, creating a ragga piece of Jungle.


3. "An Evil Source"

'Digital, Spirit, DJ Ratty & Nick EP created An Evil Source in the late hours of a party at Digital's house. Rave stabs, riffs, Mentasm, Amen, and Funky Mule breaks show they went for that dark n dirty 93/94 Rave / Jungle sound championed by Dj Ratty. Stay til the end because this one builds perfectly.

4. "Stay"  

Syncopated rhythms and a percussive synth lead merge with a frantic vocal and dynamically juicy breakbeats. Slightly unusual, but it's unique!

Digital's Dirty Dubs

AN EVIL SOURCE

Hi folks! To celebrate my forthcoming birthday tomorrow, and as a token of gratitude towards all of you out there, I want to share a gift, a new free track: Mineral - One Day. 

It is an atmospheric drum'n'bass tune strongly influenced by  the 90's golden era of atmospheric dnb. I want to dedicate this song to my late grandmother, who was always very supportive towards my music. She used to listen for hours while I played the piano and improvised melodies of my own back then. Some of the piano stems in this song are recordings of myself playing the piano over two decades ago. I wanted to grasp a moment of time from the past and carry it to the present moment.

As you may notice, this track has a relatively long intro, around 2,5 minutes in total. And the total length of the track is nearly 9 minutes. The BPM is 160, giving some space to breath & groove both for the breaks and the melodic parts. Wanted to create something slow, yet evolving. So leave your stress for about 10 mins, relax, grab a cup of coffee/beer and I enjoy the song. - Mineral 9.12.2022

Also available at my bandcamp:

ps. my biggest thanks & recommendations to Resoundsound for the mastering duties.

Beware of the basslines...

Acid_Lab drops his new and fresh four track EP called "Dark Justice", which is a big salute to Jungle veterans and legends like Ray Keith or Twisted Anger.

Known for coming with some rugged rollers, Acid_Lab is continually working and developing his production skills and is able to turn his hands to any sound or style he wishes.

The Jungle roller "Conscious Music" sets the tone straight off! This tune combines stepping beats, with relentless basslines and 90s fx sounds.

"Riddim Culture" and "Don Dada" are taking no prisoners! Both tunes playing with quiet similar ideas. Just mix some heavyweight Amenbreaks, with raw basses, deep pads and razor-sharp edits.

"Dark Justice" is running a mysterious Sci-Fi sample and could be a long lost tune for an older "Alien" movie.

As always, many shout outs to all the supporters worldwide! None of this would be possible without your continued support!

Support quality music and buy this release. Illegal downloads are the wrong way.

Less words now, let the music speak and remember, beware of the basslines!
