"I said Jungalists are you ready" ...
Last night on 'D&B with Crissy Criss' a Jungle special was held. It was all about reminiscing with old school vibes for many as well as educating the newer generation of listeners in the DNB/Jungle scene; I wasn't an exception.
The main features for the duration of the show were names such as, DJ Rap, MC Moose, Nicky Blackmarket, Ray Keith, Micky Finn but it was generally a trip back into the "old skool" era of jungle. A lot of tracks including one of my all time favourites (Fugees - 'Ready or not' DJ Hype remix) were played alongside so many bangers.
In addition for the last hour of the show there was the 1xtra talent which was a switch back to the present for many in regards to DNB but still had Jungles vibes ringing till 2am, hosted by 'Dj Ruffstuff' which was the last of the series, the set for the whole hour was dominated by the 'Skibadee' & 'Funsta MC' which was mixed by 'Ruff Stuff' who had a great send off ending the show in a bang.
Pure Jungalist vibes were distrubited across the ears of the nation. It was a brilliant show overall, giving everyone a brief history of the roots which form modern day drum and bass as well as Jungle.
