Not really, I don't think there's any jungle tracks on there unless you play it at 78 or something. I wouldn't doubt jungle comps coming out on Mo' Wax though. Mo' Wax has been divided into three labels now, with the main label being primarily for compilations. This is all due to their (can I say fatal?) link-up with Virgin, and supposedly Astralwerks in the US.

Umm, you might want to try the UNKLE double 12" on Mo' Wax, also there's some "trip hop" compilation called "Dope on Plastic", which is okay. *Don't* buy "The Trip Hop Test" and *Don't* buy anything on that stupid Shadow Records. You also may like Mo' Wax's prior comp, which is more jazzy, called "Royalties Overdue".

I'm not sure who Patterson is, I guess he's one of the new recruits on the comp. RPM can be found on two prior Mo' Wax singles, the first one was called "Food of My De-Rhythm"/"Take Me Out of the Ordinary" and the second one has just been re-released called "2000", which you probably have already. It's got two cuts featuring Menelik on the flip side though.

You would probably get a better response on the acid-jazz list. Begin shameless self promotion--------------------------------------------- to subscr!be to the acid-jazz list, send mail to: listserv@ucsd.edu with the message body being: add (your address here) acid-jazz Jonathan
