Gremino - Metro Station DJ Mix

Finnish Junglist Gremino presents his latest specialty, under the title "Metro Station".

This project introduces to us 8 tracks that appear twice, first as experimental 4x4 jungle and then reimagined as hard techno. Every 4x4 beat is constructed entirely from chopped breakbeats rather than conventional drum hits, creating a unique rhythmic language that ties both sides together while allowing each genre to take on its own distinct character. Rather than feeling like alternate versions, the two halves reveal how rhythm alone can fundamentally reshape a track's identity.

The "Jungle Side" thrives on restless, fractured grooves, shifting between urban tension, tropical warmth, and post-apocalyptic decay, while the "Techno Side" transforms those same ideas into relentless warehouse pressure with rolling techno rumble replacing jungle's sub-heavy foundations. Hearing tracks such as "Metro Station" or "Block Breeze" in both forms highlights Gremino's fascination with rhythm as a tool for reinvention. Throughout, rough textures, playful detours, and unconventional sound design keep the music feeling personal rather than purely functional.

The release is paired with a beautifully produced cassette edition limited to just 30 copies, coming out digitally as well.

'Jungle Technology' by Gremino

 

Helsinki son, Gremino has just released his brand new exquisite work, something that will definetely draw your attention if you're onto that D&B tip.

'Jungle Technology' is the name of his 11-track album, coming out on digital format and on a very limited number of CD copies.

As officially described, it's "a journey through tropical beaches and palm trees, aqua currents, technology, cyber networks, danger, vigilance and concrete, and all of this operated with smoothness."

Inspired quite a lot by oldskool hardcore, Detroit techno and heavyweight basslines, this album marks one of the best Nordic outings during this year among the relentless firing releases of Straight Up Breakbeat.

In overall all tracks are totally firing and deliver an unusual jungle style. For instance, take a listen to 'Coconut Water (jungle remix)' track, which is our personal highlight from there.

 

'Jungle Technology' is one for the Nuskool crew and it's worth every single penny if you run big speed of amen breaks and you're driven by a junglistic passion.
