Drum 'n' Bass was a breath of fresh air in the mid 90s, a multicultural blend of many things that would catch my young ears searching for new sounds. Breaks, Beats, borrowing from Jazz, Hip Hop, Dance Music, Reggae and Dancehall, sampling films for atmosphere or just humour. It was exciting, new and funky.
BBC Radio 1 was still at the forefront of youth and music culture at the time (maybe it still is and I'm too old to know) and had the fantastic One In The Jungle show running weekly in '96/97.
I probably didn't know much about Mickey Finn or MC Navigator then or now but I taped it and rinsed it many times over the years since....move the couch back and enjoy.
