Yep, I was well into the original junglism. I first encoutered it at some dodgy municipal festival in South Bermondsey, where Shy FX and UK Apache were playing, and all the little kids were dancing, but I couldn't work out how you danced to it. Once my hard drive was re-wired, though, I went out and overdosed on General Levy, Moose & Navigator, the Ragga Twins, all that stuff. But you couldn't really avoid it in New Cross and Lewisham then, with "rewind selector" and "hold tight London tahn" coming out of hundreds of little pirate radio stations everywhere you went. <BR/><BR/>I liked the music when it went all "intelligent" and crossed over with Roni Size et al, but something of the dirty street sensibility (which came from 'appy 'ardkore I think) was lost, only to resurface in UK garage and more recently grime and dubstep. Hold tight, London town.bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15439386754907203808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10131050.post-12968298213063498232007-09-30T13:26:00.000+01:002007-09-30T13:26:00.000+01:00Cor blimey, I didn't have you down as an original ...Cor blimey, I didn't have you down as an <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junglist" REL="nofollow">original junglist</A>, or an 'OJ' as we call them in south London...<BR/><BR/>They don't make music like that anymore - but then again, I'm a big fan of <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubstep" REL="nofollow">Dubstepping</A> music these days, which is very similar to jungle music.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10131050.post-26009563648780009912007-09-28T14:17:00.000+01:002007-09-28T14:17:00.000+01:00Nice.
