Beat Machine Records is proud to drop the sixteenth chapter of its iconic Swinging Flavors series, starring Newcastles own Nectax a breakbeat alchemist pushing jungle and D&B into jagged, unpredictable territory backed with a remix from forward-thinking bass manipulator Fracture.Cool Runnings is exactly that: a hypnotic, mid-nineties-tinged jungle cut stripped back and dubbed out, but sharpened with modern production techniques that give every snare and sub-bass a punchy, alive quality. Razor-sharp breaks collide with rolling basslines, weaving a track thats at once nostalgic and fully of-the-moment.The B-side flips the energy with Fractures remix, injecting fractured percussion, jagged fills, and high-octane bass tweaks. Its a modern take that preserves the originals laidback groove while kicking it into full-blown club chaos. Together, the two tracks form a high-voltage 7 that bridges classic jungle aesthetics with contemporary sonic experimentation. Cool Runnings is my take on a laidback mid-nineties tipped Jungle track. Stripped back, dubbed out, but with a subtle focus on modern production techniques to tie it all together, says the artist.Following recent Swinging Flavors contributors like Ac1d Vicious, DJ Sofa, and Ornette Hawkins, Nectax marks the next evolution for the series: tense, textured, and unafraid to push the floor into new territory.The release continues Beat Machine Records mission to highlight forward-thinking club music rooted in underground culture, with a sharp focus on physical formats and hybrid rhythms.
