Before drumnbass there was Jungle. Born on the progressive reggae sound systems of the early 1990s, jungle was the UKs answer to dancehall and one of Soul II Souls enduring legacies – take whats already there and adapt it to make it unique. Fittingly, next up on the Funki Dred label are two of 1995s most elusive jungle mixes: the sought after version of ‘Missing You’, giving vocal outtakes a deserved new life; and Dillingers Genius mix of ‘Do You Love Enuff’. Both only previously available as limited-edition white labels, each has a strictly junglist foundation edgy, headrush and dubwise haziness overlaid with dreamy Funki Dred-style vocals, as Soul II Soul in the jungle gives a distinctive take on an under-appreciated black British style.
