DJ Mowgly - Cook EP Mp3

the "elusive" DJ Mowgly's only release, as the story goes he "met" Empire after a ATR gig and passed him a tape of these three songs. a video was made to promote the song cook and perhaps bring him out of the woodwork but it never happened. later turned out as we now all know it is Alec Empire on his day off, making some fine Jungle. Its a perfect record. plenty of UK sound in this one, and a bit more relaxed and dancefloor friendly compared to some of Empire's work of this era. The best track though is "Mowgly Dub" that sounds like a sunrise before dropping into a wicked Jungle vibe. its a bit pricey now due to its rarity but own it if your an avid Jungle collector.

Have both sides DHR logo or is one side only white?

yes thats correct - one side DHR UK logo with track info , and other side just white/blank with no track info

One side has the DHR, the flipside is blank white. That's how my copy looks and I bought it in 1994

Oh No!! I don't know jungle..hahaha! Decent enuf tune but after playing a few times feels over reliant on the hook - has some nice sub arrangements though

Yes I agree... The eerie hook and subs are killer with the beats and then it just repeats...Shame ;)

As above, one of the finest jungle records of the era, and undoubtably from outside the UK. Not your averag DHR dancefloor vinyl, but this gem is vital to the record collection of any real jungle dj.

To me this is THEE jungle record. Honestly, you don't need anything else. This is really the only 12" Alec Empire did in a pure jungle style, but he totally conquered it! "Cook" is the most catchy jungle track I've ever heard. And the music video for it is great too. Almost all of the old 1994/95 DHR crew can be seen in the club; DJ Moonraker, Thaddi, Carl Crack, and also Something J and Alec Empire. I wasn't even there but watching it makes you feel like you were. The nostalgia it puts forth is amazing. This record is a total gem. If you don't know this record, you don't know jungle.
