Back in print after more than twenty years, this cult classic of underground British fiction tells the story of young Black men coming of age among the raves and jungle music of London in the 1990s. Junglist is the compelling, comedic, stream-of-consciousness story of young black men coming of age in London. Layered with poetic verses, prose and humour, it is a dialogical account of how important jungle/drum and bass, and its cultural takeover of the summer of 1994, was to four youths as they approach adulthood in the capital. In the 1990s, jungle overturned the preconceptions many Black British youths had towards electronic music. For the first time there was a sound that made sense to them, that mattered, that spoke in a language they understood. Filled with booming basslines and Jamaican patois, jungle stepped out of the small rooms to take over clubs' cavernous main spaces, pulling a generation of Black British ravers with it. Back in print after two decades, the authors were originally approached by publishers who wanted to portray street culture as it became a cultural feature of London, and agreed to write a novel about the rollercoaster ride of a weekend raving. Charting a time when working-class kids, both Black and white, merged to dance as one family, Junglist is both a testament to Black British sound system culture and a rawthentic account of inner-city life.
