Bargain Jungle: Scarface – I Seen A Man Die (4 Hero Remixes)

27, May 2011

I’m a huge hip hop fan, and primarily East Coast, listening to Nas and Wu-Tang long before Jungle cast it’s spell on me. Despite coming from the South, Scarface (of Geto Boys fame) was as real as any East Coast rap, with his very deep and grainy voice, simple but effective rhymes; I Seen A [...]

Bargain Jungle: Funki Porcini – King Ashabanapal (Dillinja Remix)

11, May 2011

Big remix here from Dillinja, as they all were back in 1995, this time Ninja Tune stalwart Funki Porcini gets the treatment, the tune being King Ashabanapal. The original is a fairly downtempo affair, Dillinja switches it as he does; with amens everywhere and huge sub bass, it is a fairly standard amen work out [...]

It took me a while to really appreciate Warp Drive remix after being so obsessed by the original for years, but this is the kind of tune you need to listen to extremely loud, or with headphones and let it just take you away. It is a fantastic remix, every aspect of the original has [...]

Bargain Jungle: M-Beat & Jamiroquai – Do U Know (Where You’re Coming From)

31, Mar 2011

Like many big, and respected acts of the mid 90′s Jamiroquai dabbled in a bit of jungle, but it was not just a thoughtless remix, they actually collaborated with the once huge (and then outcasted) M-Beat. Jamiroquai were already well known for their laid back, acid jazz stylings and it seemed a logical progression (sorry!) [...]

Unreleased Source Direct dubplates for sale

23, Jan 2011

I have decided to let go of the three Source Direct dubplates I bought a few years back. They are just gathering dust and it made sense to move them on to someone who will give them a better home, plus I could use the funds to get the ever elusive Truper Vol III and [...]

1, Jan 2011

Released in 1994, this dark tune is so ahead of its time, with its use of heavy tribal beats and for as little as 3 pounds, you can purchase one of Gerald’s finest tunes.
