  Soul Jazz Records new Black Riot: Early Jungle, Rave and Hardcore is a brand new collection of heavyweight ragga-influenced hardcore jungle tracks from the early 1990s. Dark and heavy!

  Featuring classic and seminal tracks from the likes of Levictus and Krome &Time, alongside a host of rare and little-known ragga & junglist hardcore tunes from the likes of Babylon Timewarps hypnotic Durban Poison, Rhythm for Reasons mad The Smokers Rhythm, The Freaky rave-y breakbeat sound of Time and Age, Trip Ones super dark Snowball and loads more!

  Expect super heavy basslines, equally heavy twisted Amen drum loops, even heavier ragga vocals! Original jungle style – roots and culture – from the earliest days of drum and bass.

  Included with the album is a free limited-edition graphic mini-novel Black Riot: The Mysterons save Planet Earth from the Xatheroid Angels. This is the third collaboration between Soul Jazz Records and writer/illustrator Paulo Parisi, the highly respected author of graphic books on Jean Michel Basquiat and John Coltrane.

  This new graphic story continues the story of black electronic dance music this time set around the birth of Jungle and continues onwards from Soul Jazzs earlier Invasion of the Killer Mysterons (Jamaican electronic Dub, co-compiled by Kevin Martin (The Bug)) and Mysterons Invade the Jackin Zone (about Chicago Acid & Experimental House).
