PEVERELIST's guide to Bristolian jungle (2009)
DIE - Reincarnations (1996)
One of the best from the "King of the Rollers," Die. Killer syncopated evolving jungle grooves. Certainly one of the unsung Bristol classics; moody vibes without aggression.
KRUST - Brief Encounters (from Genetic Manipulation EP) (1997)
Epic, sprawling visions of the future from Krust. Releases like this, "Future Unknown" and "True Stories" don't seem to fit in anywhere within drum & bass, and seem extraordinary in retrospect. Krust is definitely the most avant-garde of the Bristol producers.
RONI SIZE & DIE - Music Box (1993)
This one's a rare groove sampling Bristol jungle classic. The first release on Full Circle―later to become Full Cycle―and probably one of the first Bristol tunes to really make an impact in the London jungle scene.
MORE ROCKERS - Night Fall (1995)
Unsurpassed Bristol jungle anthem from Rob Smith and Peter D in their More Rockers guise, which samples the Johnny Osbourne lovers rock track of the same name. The Smith & Mighty studio and influence played a large part in the early development of the Full Cycle artists.
RONI SIZE REPRAZENT - Trust Me (1996)
All time Bristol dancefloor classic, later included as part of the New Forms album. Irresistible skittering beats: the definitive Bristol roller. This track still gets smashed in Bristol, and will always remind me of the Thekla or the Full Cycle residency at Lakota in the '90s.
