ma> There is a 12" that just
ma> came out (i think) from Roni Size and the flip side is DJ Krust. It has
ma> "It's Jazzy" and the Krust track is great as well.

both tracks ("it's jazzy" by roni & "maintain" by krust) are old, but the
remixes are new. the "maintain" mix is by dave angel, so i expected it to
be techno "thumpy", but it's breakbeaty (yay!!!). grooverider (or was it
micky finn, oops!) was all over the roni track when he was in l.a.

ma> Also there is a
ma> Japanese 12" (could it be called Utsumi (sp?)... i don't remember) but
ma> the cover is brown cardboard and there is a latin drumand bass track on
ma> it that just grooves!

that "montuno" track by utsumi is DOPE!!! i can play that out of almost
anything to get into d&b. latin flavored stuff is real big in l.a., so
people know how to dance to it w/o looking like they're having a seizure,
and
then i can play some other jungle stuff. all you producers out there, give
us djs more latin jungle--the crowds love it!!
