Notes on Polyamorous Quest Code

In the 90’s, I was awoken by the jungle/drum and bass scene and all the associated parties in both NYC and Boston. Unlike any other music, it fit like a glove more than I could understand at that time. Unlike all the music of that time ( though great), jungle sounded like the future. Something beyond our comprehension. A true mixture of culture becoming more than itself. Besides just the music, the fashion was loose and the polar opposite of the tight jeans I favored at the time. And the dancing...... the dancing wasn’t just to groove like funk. The style of dance the music encouraged everyone to do lifted our bodies off the floor like continuous spasms almost at the same speed of the music itself. It was impossible to do this type of dancing for a long time. Any good dancer would go out of breath and step to the side for the next person to shine. But the euphoria that it brought to each person was unique and unreplicatable by other musics to this day and year of 2020. The fire of drum and bass at the time burned so bright that it was put out by corporate drum and bass (you know.... same beat, annoying synths, sounds like techno and shows zero creativity). Much of the creativity from the many producers has been forgotten. I especially was influenced by NYC’s jungle sky crew, the trio WE, and the Boston experimental collective Toneburst. Because of the flow of time, I wasn’t aware in each passing year that this amazing feeling and this brand new culture would in seconds wither and disappear.

Listening to these recording again is an incredible revelation as today’s NOW culture is incredibly similar to that time. The sounds of the music, the beats, the synths, and even the bright clothes.
Since I was in uni, I have wanted to create drum and bass but I was too shy to find out how. Rediscovering this music, I want to put my foot in the circle and continue the feelings that I love. This starts with “Polyamorous Quest Code.” I hope you enjoy.
