Look for some old Mickey Finn mixtapes, one of the best being the aptly
titled "Ragga Jungle".
He's got alot of classics, incredibly good and high energy all around.
You'll do better with mixtapes
than cd comps in terms of more underground track seletion and raw energy.
DJ Jeffee from florida
put out one of the better ragga tapes i've heard a couple years back, i know
its available through
pure acid mixtapes mail order.
If you can only track down the cd comps, there's lots to choose from,
about a dozen or so came out in the mid-90's. Some that you can probably
still get:
v/a - "Toasted" - Mutant sound system
v/a - "Law of the Jungle - Moonshine
Although if you check used cd shops and bins, there's alot of decent comps.
I can get more specific if you're looking for particular stuff, but i don't
have alot of time here,
not to mention the off topic nature....:)
