Mr. Kirks Nightmare is famous early hardcore track. DJ DB has a weakness
for this stuff -- that's why he brought out a disk with remixes of 'Bomb
Scare' by 2Bad Mice in 94. If you're looking for new trippy jungle I can
understand your disappointment.
To the extent that Jungle grew out of the hardcore scene (and included
some of the same players -- Rob Playford, Dego, et al) it's a historical
document. But feel free to throw it at minivans if it makes you feel
better.
