Next in the compiler hotseat for seminal mix series ‘Back to Mine’ is the ever popular and world renowned Jungle. The mix delves through the band’s personal collection of leftfield-pop, deep house, modern jazz, Afro-funk and symphonic soul.
From bedroom studio duo to talent-filled seven-strong live collective, Jungle - led by Josh Lloyd-Watson and Tom McFarland - shot to success in 2014 with their self titled debut album. Online word-of-mouth, IRL buzz, rave reviews, and a Mercury Music Prize nomination led to half a million sales, burgeoning DJ careers, and a global tour that lasted two years. In 2018 Jungle released their second album ‘For Ever’, a lush, psychedelic, kaleidoscopic, romantic record defined by their journeys simultaneously geographical, professional and personal.
