THE BREAKBEATS THAT BUILT JUNGLE: 1993 ONWARDS
THE BREAKBEATS THAT BUILT JUNGLE: 1993 ONWARDS Jungle didn't just emerge from speeding up breakbeats.

By 1993, UK producers were pushing breakbeat programming into new territory, creating complex, syncopated rhythms that helped define the sound of jungle. Listen to the original breaks. These recordings helped sha

JUNGLE DOCUMENTED: From Pirate Radio to the Dancefloo. 30 Years of History on Film

How Leviticus’ ‘Burial’ brought jungle’s melting pot of influences together.
Courtesy Of DJ Mag - Ben Murphy - 11.08.26 Full Article Here Released in 1994, ‘Burial’ is one of the biggest and baddest tunes to have emerged out of jungle's first wave. Produced by scene stalwart Jumpin Jack Frost under his Leviticus alias, it hit heavy on dancefloors when it was first unleashed, but equally won the hearts of dancehall fans, rare groove heads and the reggae sound system faithful. This was in a large part thanks to its irresistible vocal sample and omnivor
