This is part 4 of my late 90s Jungle Compilations. I took a break from looking for records as i have lost interest in this music for a little while. After listening and enjoying a bunch of different genres i've been confronted with the passing of my all-time favorite Drum and Bass MC. "The Voice" MC Conrad has passed on May 1st. I've been listening to LTJ Bukem & MC Conrad sets since i was 15 years old and both of them have introduced me to the world of Intelligent Jungle/DnB music.
Just two months later the Drum and Bass scene has lost another influential figure. DJ Randall has passed on July 31st. A phenomenal DJ and a hugely influencial person towards my favorite artists throughout the scene.
I want to dedicate this mix to both, MC Conrad and DJ Randall.

With this selection i was trying to focus more on soft and lingering pads, beautiful chords and pleasant basslines. Compared to part 3, which was heavily dominated by more underground jungle, i now tried to find a balance between intelligent dnb and a mixture of ravey jungle inbetween.
Creating this mix has been an absolutely enjoyable time, as always. Few things come close to digging for and discovering hidden musical gems. Enjoy the music.
