Nine years after critically acclaimed album Jungle Revolution, jungle pioneer Congo Natty drops a double a side Athos / Jungle Defender from his forthcoming Ancestorz (Rootz Of Jungle) album.
Levelling up once again, Mikail Tafari aka Congo Natty shares a taste of what’s to come from the project in this latest release, maintaining his boundary crossing journey exploring jungle, D&B, reggae, jazz, hip-hop and beyond.
Set to represent the global diaspora and giving a voice to the people on the upcoming album, Congo Natty tells the most important story jungle music can tell whilst documenting the uprising and reflecting on where mankind, culture and the journey is at in 2022.
With a five decade deep discography spanning seminal and timeless releases like Junglist, Under Mi Sensei, Get Wild, Kunta Kinte, Jah Sunshin’, Original Ses and more, Congo Natty has played a founding and hugely influential role in one of the most phenomenal, boundary breaking music movements the UK has ever known.
Remaining on the front line of the musical rebellion to this day, Mikail understands jungle’s power to unite and break barriers. Weaving positive affirmations of his spiritual life as a Rastafarian into his song writing, he has been an consistent protagonist in the jungle uprising since the early 90s. Forever humble, he seeks to spread more positivity and encourage unity, whilst focusing on the new generation who will carry his torch into the next five decades.
Revealing the album release date and track list with not one but two sublime jungle cuts, Congo Natty returns with Athos, a collab with DJ and producer Fleck that makes for a sound system ready smash, weaving rippling jungle breakdowns amongst lyrical assaults from Lij Tafari, live instruments and keys. Meanwhile, Jungle Defender moves to calmer waters with son of the melodica and dub king, Augustus Pablo – Addis Pablo on melodica duties with tribal flutes and strings that flow over rhythmic drums and rumbling subs.
Continuing to spread the Congo Natty message as a performer, musician, label owner, pioneer, revolutionary, humanitarian and father, Ancestorz (Rootz Of Jungle) is set to be his most personal, ambitious, timeless and expert album to date and his finest chapter yet.

Bristol/London duo APEXAPE are back with as brand new original single Till It’s All Over re-uniting with the mighty Reigns for vocal duties.
APEXAPE have rapidly established themselves in the UK House producer / dj rankings over the last three years with standout releases on Good Company, CR2 and latterly on NewState Music. Singles such as Du Du Du, Joy & Pain, Reload, Hold On, Free In Love, Passion and last single The Lover That You Are, have cemented APEXAPE as leaders in credible crossover UK house music and Till It’s All Over adds to their portfolio.
Till It’s All Over takes a cue from 90s house with massive piano melodies plus old skool rave breaks as the core of the track. Add in Reigns superbly powerful gospel tinged vocal and youve got a quality house anthem in the making. Reigns is no stranger to house vocals and has had a slew of club hits with the likes of Low Steppa, TS7, Redondo and Breathe Carolina, to name a few, racking up over 10m streams on her features.")
