As the scintillating year 2024 comes to an end, we have plenty to celebrate on the musical front - particularly with the resurgence of Jungle music, a genre that emerged 30 years ago and now stands proudly at the forefront of high quality raves and events. Thanks to the tireless work of dedicated crews, community radios and labels (especially in pioneering cities like London and Bristol) this sound is going out strong. The keyholders of this movement are the young stalwarts, who carry a fresh energy pushing the scene to unparalleled heights.
The UK's vibrant core continues to deliver the vibe to the rest of the world. A shining example is Gustav Ejstes of the Swedish psychedelic rock band Dungen, who broke the barriers and under the Dungen moniker, debuted a groundbreaking Hardcore Jungle record on Tim Reaper's Future Retro label. Massive parties across the UK and everywhere and the dedication of heroes like Tim Reaper, Pete Cannon, Distant Planet, and Calling the Hardcore have kept the Hardcore and Jungle scene thriving.
In the meantime, the Kniteforce Records kingdom remains powerful in everywhere around Hardcore.
Last but not least, for fans of Oldskool legends, the ultimate bundle from Messiah via Kniteforce Records, offered a 'temple of dreams,' packed with everything you could imagine and more. Meanwhile, Nexus 21 unveiled their long-awaited second album - a gem of previously unreleased tunes and more.
Other than that, we at the Strictly Nuskool Blog have recently published our annual Xmas specialty that is 'Hall of Fame 2024'. This year's session is comprised of 37 tunes in total, curated and mixed in two parts by myself and Tariq Ziyad, offering a wee introduction to this amazing year and furthermore some of the most outstanding vibes that hit the raves.
As ever, all we ask is your support to the Labels and the Artists behind these tunes.
