glowing flowers, scintillating wings
air tense with pressure, rain kissing cheeks
tendrils vie to touch the sky 
as shadows yield to the first whispers of light 

spring mix is not just a salad 
it is also 20 or so jungle/drum & bass tunes to embrace and reflect on the vernal

About this mix:
a frenetic nocturne dedicated to a summer's night 
the sky is indigo, you are walking home, everything is melted
you slice the city in half 
air is suffocating (maybe a whisper of breeze at one of the cross streets) 
your brain is very loud while the world is very quiet

LU2K INVITES NYC JUNGLIST AND 123 COLLECTIVE MEMEBER, JAQL

jaql is a stalwart member of the bubbling jungle scene in NYC. She is keen on world building via her sets that are led by fast breaks and wobbly basslines.

She runs a party series titled ‘Jaywalking’ which grew out of a deep yearning to hear more jungle on local dance floors. Beyond platforming local and name brand jungle DJs, Jaywalking’s goal is also to foster the sound in new ways, inviting people who don't normally play jungle to interpret the sound.

She is also a member of 123, a collective based in Brooklyn hosting a wide range of events from weeknight socials to full blown raves featuring 123’s well-loved basement soundsystem.

Cruel Bass with aql, Poisonfrog & Umfang @ The Lot Radio 12-14-2025

jaql 是紐約市蓬勃發展的 jungle 場景中的中堅成員。她以 breakbeat、聲音質地探索與晃動低頻作為貫穿線索，透過 DJ set 建構屬於自己的聲音世界觀。

她主辦的派對系列「Jaywalking」，源自於對在地舞池中能聽到更多 jungle 音樂的強烈渴望。除了為本地與知名 jungle DJ 提供舞台外，Jaywalking 也嘗試以不同方式拓展這個聲音，邀請平時不以 jungle 為主的 DJ，重新詮釋這個風格。

此外，她也是布魯克林集體與 DIY 場地 123 的成員之一。該空間以 123 備受喜愛的地下室音響系統為核心，舉辦從平日晚間社交活動到大型 rave 的各式活動。
