Our claim to fame it seems. Been on every mixtape since 1996, I believe. > Worth seeking this one out, anyone > have the jungle mix CD by Paris, how does it compare (besides music style, > obviously). Ah yes, the Tiger/Crane technique. Jungle/Drum&Bass has been Paris' secret weapon for several years. It's a tool he has used to work out frustrations and make impressions. After working hip-hop tricks to death "in the lab" he stumbled across (and introduced me to) some deep dark brit tracks. Expect Rush and Optical classics driven hard and put away wet. Not a supersmooth Bukem style, but not jump up either. A lot of tech-step, heavy on the dark atmosphere and tight percussion. Hyperspeed hip-hop cuts. Please don;t ask me to trainspot this stuff. Imagine flooring it on 94, passing an officer, then realizing your breaks don't work. (insert maniacal Black Fu laugh here.) - There4IM
