"Second up in my single-artist showcase, and sixth in this series of mixes, we have the only man I've ever deigned to call a Jungle God, Mr. Mel Tanur aka Bay B Kane aka Code K aka The Intelligent Jungalist aka Rinca aka Kid Thunder. Star of such labels as Ruff Guidance, White House & Kikman.
Something about the way he builds up a tune, subtly adding layer upon layer, the abrupt but velvet-smooth transitions of his change-ups & breakdowns, some of the most beautiful bassline melodies ever to grace jungle's lower register, the ace sampling choices, the seemingly simplistic landscapes that hypnotise you as you gaze out the window & follow along....as blasphemous as it may sound to most ragga-ists, I revere his work more greatly than Remarc or Krome & Time.
We start off with two 94 tunes on the lighter side of things, then we take a trek through four tunes from his The Next Step - Forwards in Reverse EP, 93 style to satisfy the hardcore/jungle crossover lover in you, then we tick off 3 horizon expansions in Let Me Go, Unfolding Perspective, and a fantastic remix of In Perfection's "Expression." Then we come to my personal favorite non-amen tune, This World. Follow that with a steady ascent into ruffness, a 95 revisit of Unfolding Perspective, three hip-hop influenced smashers, and Addictive, which as the tune says, stimulates the pleasure centers of the brain. Wrap it up with the tune that made me fall in love with him, Children of the Ghetto...and a catchy outro to ease the pain of it having to come to an end.
A trip to take you where you want to go & perhaps a little further than you expected.
Thanks to DJ Extreme for giving us the first sermon on this iconic figure; hopefully this'll be a well paired complement to his offering & something to help broaden our knowledge of one of the greats in breakbeat history."
