Based around a core musical duo known simply as ‘J’ and ‘T’ who expand to a thrilling seven piece live band, Jungle make mesmeric, modern soul with true global appeal. Combining what The Guardian notes as “tribal in terms of rhythm but postpunk in sensibility” and Brooklyn Vegan proclaims has “a real vintage-ness here, recalling the period of funk and soul just as those genres started transitioning into disco,” Jungle has quickly perked the curiosity of media across the globe.

Amazing for their first try
When I found out about this amazing group of very talented people called Jungle I was immediately fascinated by their music. I checked out their songs and was convinced that the album would be as good and consistent and I was not disappointed. This is an all-around amazing album specially for their first try. I liked all of the songs and loved most of them. I could easily go as far as to call it a masterpiece. If you like new music with a bit of funk and synth influences then I strongly recommend it. And even if you just want to try something different then I recommend it as well, you will not be disappointed. Wonderful album.

SUPERB CD!!!
SUPERB CD!!! I took a listen to this bc of the hit song "Busy Earnin' " and wound up buying the cd. It's a mix of soul, funk, poetry, rich melodic layers and harmonies with an flowing alternative electronic Groove threading through each song. Throw back to the days of Earth, Wind and Fire meets modern day Radio Head, Portishead and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Even the packaging is sleek and has impact (insert with the words allows the listener to experience the depths of the songs). Can't rave enough about this band.

My Son bought it for a friend's birthday, he won't stop talking about how good it is
My son raves about this particular album and the amazing sound quality. He purchased it for a good friend, and the friend is thrilled with the album. The seller shipped the box on time and it got here in perfect timing. Excellent buy.

Fun funky beats
I absolutely loved this record! Jungle has some fun, funky beats that make you want to dance. Whenever I listen to this it puts me in a good mood and ready to go out and have some fun. I've seen Jungle perform twice and this record just takes me back to those fun times. Highly recommend this album.

Smooth like butter
This album is melted butter for your ears. It's a soft blanket that will never make you too warm. It's a cold glass of water that will never give you a brain freeze. This is the smoothest album I've listened to in years. Sample a couple tracks and then buy it and treat your ears to something indescribable.

They were so good I immediately downloaded their album
Brought disco back from the dead, 2015 style!!! I had the pleasure of discovering this group live at the Firefly Music Festival this year. They were so good I immediately downloaded their album, and have been blasting it ever since. Great album and I cant wait to see them live again at some point.
