Not quite on proper Juke yet although it is growing on me. Want to give the Planet Mu Footwurk release a rinse see how that is.... havent been masssively feeling any of the Dj Nate shit either tho I will give it time...
Cheers for posting the Fact mix, will give this a go as well..... and who ever posted that Headhunter Juke mix.... now THAT is really really heavy, lots of weight and didnt seem quite as abstract/ as many changes of time signatures as other stuff I heard...
It's been around for ages and personally I feel it needs to stay where it belongs. It's what made it soo original. I prefer the scene of mad hood cats gettin busy on some footwork in a house party than a bunch of confused heads wiggling on the dancefloor. But! like everything else, it had to catch on sooner or later and I'm sure a lot of those chi-town cats are seeing some good income from it.
Rather not listen to it and be un-cool than listen to 90% of it. Fast repetitive boring pish for the most part (from what I've heard on that planet mu ep etc)

Mu only represents a tiny slice of the sound... To each their own

Don't doubt that, but the rolling stuff where the beats don't change up at all and just have a repeated vocal do my nut. Doesn't make me want to hunt for any other stuff, I did have a little listen but wasn't feeling it - bar a couple tracks in Headhunters old juke mix from last year.
** anndd a couple new mark pritchard / afrika hitek bits - but I would class the one's I'm feeling more like some juke hybrid sound than juke.

My fave footwork/juke tracks have very little to no vocal samples, that shit grates on my nerves as well... I think juke was a lot better in 08, but the hybrid sounds are better now... Take sully's recent excursion into footwork territory (off of the dusk & blackdown show a couple months back). Those tunes are some of the most next level dancefloor riddims out there atm... Have a listen and tell me what you think if you have time

First off big ups to how this thread turned out!! I got into juke over the course of 2010 and fell in love, and yea its' exploding no doubt but for good reason. From a producer standpoint, flipping on 80 bpm and a metronome and drumming like a speed demon, then bumping up the bpm to 160 and building ontop of a juke foundation is the most fun I've had making music in a minute. Also its great seeing goodies from the 90s mixed with sick shit coming out today. Also I'm happy I get to show off this tune which no one has mentioned yet. Long live the juke!

whoever said it was, silly boy? Classic example of someone not reading a thread at all... Most of the music posted in this thread is 3-5 years old or more
