[RUFFCUTZRECS05] Various - Ruff Cutz Volume III [4-Track Digital EP Available To Purchase Now!!!]

1/ Evade - Babylon Peril.

2/ Black Orchid - Biosurvival (Part 1).
3/ Amen Holmes - Back In Tune.

4/ Radman - Mediate.

Hot on the heels of 'The Run Inside EP' vinyl release, the Ruff Cutz crew show that have not been resting on their laurels as their latest digital selection 'Ruff Cutz Volume III' drops to set the jungle alight with 'nuff razor-sharp amen edits, cavernous basslines and hardcore soundclash chatter.

First up to the plate we had Evade who flings down some killa sound with 'Babylon Peril', a ruffneck fusion of fierce amen-edits, sound-system samples (courtesy of Rebel MC, David Rodigan to name but a few) and thundering bass notes to get your speakers shaking. 
Up next Black Orchid presents 'Biosurvival (Part 1)', a tear-out, amen workout layered with lush, soaring pads, subsonic bass booms and sliced and diced "Anything test man, mi clean fi mi gun" ragga vocals to add that extra touch of raw malice.

The exceptionally named Amen Holmes unleashes 'Back In Tune' on the 2nd half of the EP, which delivers a rapid-fire barrage of machine-gun breaks that'll get your heart pounding, while soothing pads and otherworldly bleeps and distorted vocal FX lure you into a dreamlike state of bliss. 
Rounding off the collection we have Radman's 'Mediate' to see us off, in flurry of militant beats set to a bouncing bassline and reverb soaked vox, alongside dub style, sonic beat manipulations that allows the tune to just play around with your headspace.

If you come looking for authentic, contemporary jungle which pays respectful homage to the scene's Golden Years, then 'Ruff Cutz Volume III' will fulfil your requirements for strictly drum & bass, and then some!!!

The 'Ruff Cutz Volume III' EP is available to purchase now in all digital formats, for the bargain price of £3 (or more if you wish to support the label and artists n future projects) from the official Ruff Cutz Bandcamp store. Run go tell a friend!!!

1/ Healing The Nation.

2/ 64 Tetra.

Deep In The Jungle Records present the brand new 2-track single from  new skool jungle ambassador, Evade. Opening with the ruffneck ragga jungle smasher 'Healing Of The Nation' which blends smooth, soulful synths with a moody bassline, heavyweight breaks and ragga exaltations  towards the 'ganja weed'.

On the flipside things get darker with the ominous '64 Tetra'. Featuring darkcore synths straight out of 1993, severely mashed up amen break edits (check out the spinbacks and bitcrushing!!!) and massive reversed bass throbs.

Evade's tracks are guaranteed to please all jungle heads and gives the classic ragga and dark jungle templates a tight, modern makeover for 2015.

[DEEPIN009] Back To The Jungle EP Part II (OUT NOW ON DEEP IN THE JUNGLE!!!]

 

1/ Kartoon - Wake & Bake.

2/ Evade - Networkz.

3/ DJ Hybrid - Puffin Erbz.

4/ Simply Dread - Under The System.

5/ X Nation - Good Life.

6/ DJ L.A.B & SICKorWELL - Island Sound (Brian Brainstorm Remix).

 



Deep In The Jungle Records continue on with their jungle onslaught with the 'Back To The Jungle EP Part II', featuring 6 roughneck jungle tracks from the cream of today's underground jungle scene.
 
The EP concentrates on the most kinetic, dancefloor elements which made classic jungle tracks from 1994-1995 so potent, from Kartoon's Mary J. Blige borrowing 'Wake & Bake', Evade's dark and dubwise 'Networkz' to Hybrid's hip-hop/dub reggae skankin' 'Puffin Erbz' on the first half. To the classic ragga influenced 'Under The System' by Simply Dread, X Nation's feelgood head-nodder 'Good Life' and final track 'Island Sound (Brian Brainstorm Remix).' by longtime modern jungle revivalist DJ L.A.B. & SICKorWELL, which invokes memories of Smith & Mighty to a 170bpm tempo. There is nothing but pure unadulterated amen break pressure combined with the deepest, filthiest basslines going outside of Jamaica. Expect plenty of chopped breaks, sub and Reece basslines and the choicest reggae/ragga influences going. It's like the jungle explosion of the mid-nineties never stopped!

The 'Back To The Jungle EP Part II' is available for digital download in all the following stores...
