A - Sixteenarmedjack - Special Request.
B1 - Osci - Feel So Fine.
B2 - Nickynutz - Da Colt 45.
The 'Bulletproof Wax 001' EP opens with Sixteenarmedjack's Summertime anthem 'Special Request', a track chock full of mental chopped up amen breaks, rudeboy basslines, mellow R&B keyboard melodies and of course, vocals from the man like the David Rodigan dropping the track title via clever sample usage.
Osci drops some dancehall ragga chatting meets fierce breakbeat choppage on 'Feel So Fine'. It's worth noting that the bassline on this track is an absolute killer, guaranteed to assault any speaker out there and almost veering towards the vibrato bass featured on jungle-tek tracks, but jungle through and through.
The infamous Nicknutz rounds off the EP with his heavyweight, processed amen rinser, 'Da Colt 45' which fuses intricately layered percussion, rumbling bass and gunshots with obscure country and western samplage! A tune that's simply rugged to the core.
Despite it being 21 years on from the original UK jungle explosion in 1994, it is clear that ragga jungle is far from dead and exclusive to it's London-centric rootsand that debut Bulletproof Wax release is sure to carry the torch for jungle far into the future.
