The Dissensus Jungle Poll Is Now Open

[Corpsey]

Friday? Fuck. Hope I can slack off a fair amount at work this way lol

 

[PiLhead]

forgot to include this in my ballot



lost gem (last gem?) by Omni Trio - b-side to "Nu Birth of Cool"

formulaic, yes - but when the formula is perfection, then why not

"Torn" - as in tearing, yes, but I like to imagine also torn (deep down inside) between feeling he had to say bye-bye to the smashed-Amen diva-piano template and usher in the slicked out nullity of the Nu Thing

A lot of 93 stuff is almost hard to categorise as jungle or hardcore, such as



Where does this fall on that borderline?



And this?

Still getting context from youtube comments...

Bukem came on the scene, introduced 'intelligent' D&B and changed the whole game. At the same time the really roughneck ragga jungle was exploding alongside these tunes, and causing all sorts of drama in the London venues... It went from being happy clappy pills n thrills to all eyes and teeth in dark corners of the clubs, too many crack spliffs being smoked, and people getting stabbed. Still great times though...

Hey yall. There is absolutely no way I'm going to finish a poll, especially one I'd feel good about, by Friday. Just don't have the time to sit and listen to music these days. Maaaaybe could get it done by Tuesday, I guess, over the long weekend. If that means mine won't count, no worries, but thought I'd bring it up.

Either way, it's nice to go back through all this stuff, it's been a minute. Looking forward to discovering at least a couple new tunes. In that spirit, here's a few corkers that might be on my own list that haven't (I think) been mentioned yet:

Agent Orange - Gettin' Rougher Kaos Remix
The Fat Controller - In Complete Darkness
The Rood Project - Thunder
Baraka & Master Lacquer - One In a Million
G-Force & De Oxman - Cappashot
Fine Feline - Weekend
Higher Level (aka Krome & Time) - Everybody Can Be

 

[Corpsey]

I move for a deadline lengthening... thingy.

NEW DEADLINE- FRIDAY 8TH OF JULY

 

[Corpsey]

WOW!

I must say after the last week and a half it feels good to have my voice acknowledged in a democratic process.

The Fat Controller - In Complete Darkness

Good choice. Couldve sworn this was 92. Theres that unreleased Fat Controller thing which is basically a mix of every anthem from 94... could be a nice sneaky pick.

Baraka & Master Lacquer - One In a Million

Johnny L! Youve reminded me of this monster

 

[firefinga]

Ok here is my compilation for late '92

I know, not quite within the 93/94 timeframe but I do think this is fitting, the tracks I have chosen have already the "jungle" vibe (imo at least):

Late '92 favs:

Trip II The Moon pt 1
Trip II The Moon pt 2
Kaotik Chemistry - LSD EP
Rufige Cru - Darkrider
Acen – Trip II The Moon (Kaleidoscopiklimax)
Bay-B-Kane – The Return Of Bay-B-Kane
Egyptian Empire - The Horn Track
Enforcers Vol1
Foul Play Vol2
Jungle House Crew ‎– Total Kaos E.P.
Mastersafe – Aspirations E.P.
Oaysis – Loft Conversion E.P.
4 Hero - Journey From The Light
A Guy Called Gerald - Like A Drug
Dance Conspiracy - Dub War
Nebula II - Peace Maker/X-Plore-H-Call and the Remix EP
Prodigy - Out Of Space
Nino - The Gun
Wots My Code - Dubplate
Oaysis - Incredible Bass
Tek 9 - Del De go go
The Brothers Grimm - Exodus/Field of Dreams

 

[Corpsey]

Was it ever considered odd that the Prodigy didn't make jungle? You'd have thought it would be right up Liam Howlett's street.

I guess they went down a more rock influenced path.

yes mate good work but can you do a bit of mcing over the top of it pls

haha i should have got bobby bisto in

January 1993

Shit, by no means I will be able to trim that down to 100 tracks/records from late '92/93/94.

so here is my list of fav tracks/EPs from January 1993:

Agent Orange - Tecnoska
Baby D - Let Me Be Your Fantasy (Ray Keith Remix)
Blame - Feel the Energy
Body Snatch - Revenge of the Punter
Darkman - As Dark As it Gets-EP
DJ Trax - Time Will Tell-EP
Dub Two - Bad Man/Sensi Tip
Higher Octave - Breakdown-EP
Hyper On Experience - Keep It In The Family-EP
Metal Heads - Terminator-EP
Nasty Habits - As Nasty As I Wanna Be -Remixes
Noise Factory - The Capsule EP
Potential Bad Boy - Jungle Fever
Sub Love - She Moves
Twin Bass - Daze Of Reality
Utomica - Rok A Bye

 

[sadmanbarty]

Has anyone actually given you an actual 1-100 ranking?

Might it be more realistic to rank according to frequency?

I've just had a proper look at the ballots so far.

A specifically ranked top 100.

A speicifally ranked top 50

A vaguely ranked top 100

The extension of the deadline should give everyone else (me included) to get proper lists in

 

[luka]

this is a classic tune and features on woebots essentail uk techno mix


but i cant get how anyone would try and shoehorn it into a best of jungle selection

 

[Corpsey]

I did mention this upthread but nobody came to my aid - that a lot of 93 tunes are really on the borderline between jungle and techno.

What defines jungle - breakbeats and dubby basslines?
