Review: Next time someone tells you that jungle's too narrowly defined and formulaic, reach for this admirably inventive EP from Dust E-1, which brings plenty of fresh ideas to the genre. 'Sun Dials' intersperses fierce ragga jungle licks with a dusty, lo-fi jazz loop, while 'Civilised Rhythm' could almost slip unnoticed into a straight-up dub set but also brings chipmunked vox and ominous synths ? la vintage hardcore. On a more typical junglist tip, 'One On One' is a sparse, moody roller that could have beamed straight in from 1993 and 'Truck Stop Steppers' has an uncompromising darkside feel.
