and it's not a mix but 'toasted: massive ragga jungle' is probably the jungle disc i've spun the most over the years.

But yeah, my favourite is "Grooverider Presents Hardstep Selection II" - drum & bass yeah, but the best kind - "Your Sound", "The Angels Fell", "Babylon", "She's So", the moment when everything started to go eerie and atmospheric but kept the rhythmic presha. And there's enough traces of honest to goodness jungle - R&B vocal rips, ragga chanting, amen mash-ups - that it doesn't really lose anything by dint of its relative sophistication.

Also great is the 3-disc Fantazia Takes You Into The Jungle set - mixes by Grooverider, Bukem and DJ Rap. Grooverider and Rap's sets in particular are smashing, more intently focused on rhythmic insanity than any other DJ sets I've heard from the period. The Bukem mix is more wishy washy but still good - I think it's like half made up of early Photek tunes (mostly under pseudonyms).

part of Timeless/Inner City Life also featured but can't remember where

The Doc Scott one isn't particularly interesting as far as DJing goes, but has some classic tracks on it (Metropolis, Shadow Boxing). Kemistry & Storm's mix is better put together, but spends too much time in dull tech / hardstep territory to be truly classic.

I recently DLd some good Randall and Kenny Ken live sets from late '93 that I'd love to hear good quality copies of. They fall just on the jungle side of ardcore / jungle and are well worth checking out. If you like the Soundmurderer set you might also want to check out DJ Ripley. She has an mp3 mix (Havoksound) floating around out there somewhere on the interweb.

So I'm getting pretty obsessed with this FACT Raime mix:

http://www.factmag.com/2011/10/17/fact-mix-292-raime/

I don't know any of these tracks, but I love the whole thing. What else should I be listening to?

Yeah that Raime mix is pretty cool. Haven't come across any recent d&b mixes that I could recommend although Ben Ufo put together a homage to the metalheadz blue note sessions fairly recently. It was ok.

Some personal favourites while we're on the subject:

- Grooverider's BBC Ess Mix (1996)
- DJ Rap's Journeys Through The Land Of Drum 'N' Bass (1995)
- Bukem's Mixmag Live (1996)
- Kemistry & Storm's Reinforced mix (1996)

A couple of years someone on ILM posted a link to a mid-90s d&b radio mix session by A Guy Called Gerald, which I think was awesome. Sadly though, I've lost the file, and I can't remember the site where it was hosted... Does anyone remember this, and still have the file, or the link?

Tuomas, do you mean this one? Because that is a fantastic AGCG mix. Download link at the bottom of that page.

damn that Raime one's good!

this mix is great. same period as the raime one, and one of the same tunes in fact.

there's a lot more euphoric rushing feeling on it than the raime mix which was a bit colder and more boring imo

Not an 'all-time best' but definitely one of my favorites, sound cuts out at one point but it's no thing

Listened to this one more times than I can count, not sure how people here feel about the 'pop' sound he does but I think it's great. This one is relentless

All of Todd Osborn's Soundmurderer stuff is fantastic

i just got this one, it's rather dope

junglized: jazzy funky drum'n'bass

anybody heard this new uncle dugs mix?

uncle dugs - rinse: 20

feel like i have every track on it on at least three other compilations, but hey

the uncle dugs has a great tracklist. i'm not sure if i know all those noise factory tracks. dunno why they had to throw "bambaataa" in at the end though.

that looks hot. thanks for the tip.

Both those Noise Factory tracks are ace. One is a Speed Limit Comp, I think. Who is Uncle Dugs?

Are the last two tracks really allowed to play uninterrupted for the last ten minutes? That Zinc remix is good, but that's seems kinda overkill (esp. since only two other tracks break four minutes--the awesome X Project choon and the slightly less awesome and way overplayed "Pulp Fiction").

yes yes but what about JUNGLIZED?!?

Hah I've only heard 44 Mag and Circles from that!

most of it sounds like 44 mag

ie awesome

Listening to jungle while reading... I haven't listened to a lot of mixes in the 160+ tempo but I really enjoyed this mix by SVN https://soundcloud.com/trushmix/trushmix-24-svn

Also this DJ TLR jungle mix is excellent https://soundcloud.com/cremeorganization/dj-tlr-live-jungle-mix-radio-student-ljubljana-19914

Junglized is one of the first DnB mixes that I ever heard and is still one of my favorites, it does a great job of transitioning from fairly jazzy and light tracks to darker hip-hop influenced tracks like 44 Mag and Lockdown.

One mix collection that I've been coming back to a lot lately is Renegade Continuum mixed by DJ Dara. I have a lot of affection for the 2 Paradox tracks on disc 1 with their sweet Dune samples.

Speed Limit 140 BPM Volumes 3-5 are all 11 out of 10

they're pretty chill but i always liked react's artcore series a lot, mainly volumes 2 + 3. especially 3.

i have been wanting to hear the artcore comps for years,
but they never turn up in charity shops these days.
thankfully archive.org has done the trick :
