JFB is Jean Marc Preisler, born in the UK to a Hungarian father and French mother, he attended his first rave in '96 and became obsessed with the discipline of turntables. He was quickly DJ'ing in Brighton; first on pirate radio Easy FM in and by '98 was playing at the legendary Meltdown club night. And let's not forget being asked to play regularly at Movement in London, the seminal DnB night that broke the likes of DJ Marky.
The pedigree doesn't stop there; our very own Ed Solo taught JFB to produce, he's remixed for Fat Boy Slim and that's before we get to the three, yes THREE, DMC World Mixing titles. But don't worry, JFB has somehow found the time to make an absolutely banging EP.
Track 1 - JFB & Slingshot ft. Zen Lewis - The Only Good System Partnering JFB on this one is old school DnB head Slingshot; friends and producers, with the incredibly soulful Zen Lewis delivering the vocals to his own lyrics. Infused with the original think break vocals ('woo, yeah' anyone? IYKYN) they give the track a timeless quality that hark back to the heady days of 90s raving. With upfront & clean Jungle production, The Only Good System is a banging system; listen to this one on your very best system.
Track 2 - JFB - Lost Jungle Lost Jungle is a light but deadly roller, stacked with summer vibes. Blissed out production and a buzzing deep bassline, this is one for the BBQs and daytime smoking sessions in the park. Lost jungle? You just found Jungle.
Track 3 - JFB & Lickweed - Uppercut It's 0230 in the club. You wanna get your head down and have it large. Uppercut comes on - a dark & dirty slab of Jungle that slaps rather than tickles. Mission accomplished. Lickweed is one of the best multi genre turntablists in Australia. It's a deadly duo that packs a serious punch.
Track 4 - JFB ft. Multiplex - Dappa Dan Dappa Dan - proper Jungle vibes for the real ravers. Twisted Jungle sounds with insistent vocals from Mutiplex; the energetic DJ/MC from the Netherlands who has dropped science at the Jungle institution Cheeky Mondays out of Amsterdam for well over a decade.
Step out to this! You won't be sitting down any time soon.
