Dillinja Armoured D...the tune that got me into DnB 🔥

💣💣🔥🔥jheeez digging deep. Og steppers

👀👀🥁🫡 intro Jheez the funky jazz cosmic sounds. Proper business.

A little glimpse into the regular night in Wolverhampton, born out of the weekly Quest night as 92/93 rave music turned into jungle in 94/95. 

I've taken some of my faves played at Amazon during the amazing 94/95 era and tried to stay away from anthems and concentrate instead on the music played by Bukem, Fabio, LTJ Bukem, Simon Bassline Smith and more. Hope you enjoy!

Will do a part 2 with more anthems and ragga jungle...
