Dazee, a true pioneer of jungle music, brings his three-decade-long career into the mix, while Euphonique’s unmistakable style has been shaking up the drum and bass scene since 2008. Together, they’ve been making waves with DJ sets, including a standout performance at Glastonbury‘s Arcadia Spider last year. Their track ‘Skip De Du Dat’ from the renowned ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ collection on Jungle Cakes has even earned recognition from BBC Radio 1 and BBC Introducing. With this remix, they seamlessly blend their unique sounds, staying true to their jungle roots while adding that raw Bristol edge.

Paper Dragon, the acclaimed electronic collective hailing from Bristol, effortlessly marries nostalgic old-school vibes with a keen ear for modern jungle and breaks. With core members Bruce Turner, Kris Burton, and Jonathan Savage leading the charge, alongside Torsten Jensen on keys, their collective experience in high-end production speaks volumes. Having collaborated with industry heavyweights like U2, Kate Bush, and Massive Attack, Paper Dragon’s EPs ‘Birds of Paradise’ and ‘Circuits’ have solidified their status in the bass music scene. Now, armed with fresh inspiration and a collection of jungle-infused tracks, Paper Dragon is poised to captivate audiences worldwide once again.

Their singles ‘Reach’ and ‘Be Free’ have already amassed millions of streams on Spotify, garnering support from major radio stations and DJs alike. Their collaboration with Grafix on ‘Forget the Rain’ continues to resonate with listeners, showcasing Paper Dragon’s unstoppable rise in the electronic music realm. With ‘Lost in a Moment Euphonique and Dazee Remix’ dropping on May 10th, brace yourself for an unparalleled sonic journey, fueled by talent, creativity, and a whole lot of musical magic.

Check out our premiere below! The single drops tomorrow via Our Space, make sure you grab your copy from here!

After their killer success with the ‘Strawberries’ Kravitz Remix, which got mad love across the scene, with even Harriet Jaxxon spinning it on BBC Radio 1 and Kool FM, plus getting lit up by AMA, MNL, and Charlie Tee. Oh, and it hit number 6 in the Closing Essentials 2023 Beatport Chart! UKF also gave it a shoutout, racking up 30K views on their upload.

Kravitz really went old school jungle with this remix, tapping into that vibe hardcore. With his past releases on Jungle Cakes, Gorilla Warfare, 1 More Thing, and more, and getting support from legends like Danny Byrd, Dr. Meaker, and AMA, dude’s definitely one to keep an eye on.

Paper Dragon actually first got wise to Jasmine through her amazing work with Dope Ammo. They just knew her sound would vibe perfectly with their old-school feel, and this remix just cranks it up a notch.

Now, let’s talk about Paper Dragon, these Bristol-based legends. They’re all about blending that classic jungle flavour with a modern twist, and they do it flawlessly. You’ve got Bruce Turner, Kris Burton, and Jonathan Savage holding it down, with Torsten Jensen on the keys. These guys have some serious creds, having collabed with big names like U2, Kate Bush, and Massive Attack, just to name-drop a few.

They had some serious success with EPs like ‘Birds of Paradise’ and ‘Circuits’ back when Ruth Royall was fronting the crew. But now, they’re back at it with a fresh angle and a whole arsenal of jungle and breaks-inspired beats.

These guys are straight-up killing it in the bass scene, with big-ups from BBC Radio 1, including being called the Coldest Record by Jeremiah Asiamah and snagging Hottest Record from Clara Amfo. And let’s not forget about their track ‘Holding On’ tearing up Love Saves The Day! Plus, their collab with Grafix, ‘Forget the Rain,’ has over 1.7M Spotify streams, and ‘Be Free’ ain’t far behind with almost 2.1M streams. Talk about climbing the ranks in the electronic game!

Check out our premiere of ‘Lost In A Moment’ below. The release drops this Friday 15th March, you can get your hands on a copy here!

Opening up the release is Dope Ammo, DJ Rap and Jasmine Knight as they join forces for ‘Together’. A masterpiece of top quality live vocals fused with uptempo Drum & Bass, providing that all important lead to the EP and certainly one track to call upon to raise up the vibe in any dance. A true meeting of minds this one.

Benny Page graces the Shades of Rhythm classic ‘Sounds of Eden’, beefing up proceedings whilst keeping the vibe of the original intact. Early warehouse ravers, this one your time!

Acen and their legitimate hardcore anthem ‘Trip to the Moon’ gets another edit, this time around by Danny Byrd, previously responsible for the ‘Sweet Harmony’ relick and as expected, he’s done a fine job with this one too. Crashing Amen breaks and a ton of early 90’s vibes crash through your speakerbox.

Ray Keith flexes his production muscle with a brand new 2021 come 1994 banger in the form of ‘Back in the Day’ and of course this totally rewinds the time machine back to Roast, Jungle Fever and the like with typical Dread vibes.

Billy ‘Daniel’ Bunter and Liquid join the list of honours with ‘Dove Removal Machine’. Another upfront but in the style of kinda flex and boy does this work wonders. Soft piano and pads on the intro, chopped up breaks and of course a few pitches up vocal samples to boot. Back to ‘92 you say? Why bloody not.

Wrapping things up into small roach-like pieces sees MKII smash out a proper breakbeat affair of time-stretched beats for your ear accompanied by classic keys and vocal shots that will have you reaching for the sky no matter where you are. If you liked the original ‘Massive’ by Origin8a & Propa, you’re going to love this version!

This release is a true testament to Moondance’s legacy and beyond.

Today we premiere Dope Ammo, DJ Rap and Jasmine Knight ‘Together’ which you can checkout below. The album sampler droppped today (8th September 2021) and is available for you to grab from the purchase button beneath the Soundcloud player!
