Overall, I’m totally impressed by Jungle. I’ve been repeatedly listening to them, to each song they have released up until now, and I can finally listen to their album as a whole. I hope I will soon be able to see them live because I’ve been awed by their originality and talent from what I’ve seen of their live shows so far. Jungle is a true gem in modern music. In 2014, it feels like no artist plays their own instruments anymore, and we have heard almost everything. Jungle manages to create music that can truly be catchy, commercial hits, but also stay soulful. Nowadays, music that blends past sounds with current dance is nothing new. We’ve heard it all with many artists, for example, combining electro and swing (remember when that sounded refreshing?), and we’ve done it too with various other musical genres. But the way Jungle blends all these various elements of funk, soul, dance and dubstep, makes it not only unique, because their approach is truly masterful, but truly special, because it doesn’t feel like a blend of sounds at all. They are well beyond the mixture of musical elements they use; they are in a category of their own.
