The netherworld of jungle music promises many good nights. Club nights, raves, rave clubs. Along the way, peace, love, unity, respect - and sometimes, harmony.
Klute released records on Certificate 18 label in the 1990s, diverting track intentions into music that nobody had ever heard before. Although many jungle and dnb producers and DJs also shared that thought, Klute's Override project, releasing before the millennium, points to a black Hole in the jungle turned drum n bass scene.
With these non elliptical tracks, Klute recognised very early that dnb producers released many tracks under many names. Freshening the vibes was one reason - after the millennium, Klute pioneered a area of the dnb scene - online at least - as an artist pool, called A Bunch Of Cuts; prioritised for boundary pushing dnb from the likes of Trevino [Marcus Intalex of M.I.S.T [with St.Files], Calibre [with a ruff variation of the Fabio 'liquid funk' style] and many more dnb producers that knew the score, but would rather rambunctiously rewrite it.
Writing as Override, where the tempos and mystery of jungle combine, these 1995-1997 singles recreate jungle through liquid funk but sound nothing like those stylee, rare tracks such as 'Pac 3', at the time, attracted interest from the Ninja Tune label, home hearted by producers including the also able-brained drum fiend Amon Tobin. Collecting fourteen tracks compiled for Bandcamp, Klute records here do not show off just like the 'Chocolate Lovely' - rather, they hypnotise with a sweet Centre like no club or rave in current circulation.
