Please don't buy this CD, It's just a Repackaged Junglesound Vol 2 (2004). Pendulum Has openly disowned this CD mix, as it's just a cheap ploy for Breakbeat Kaos to cash in on. It's great DnB, but please, do all the artists justice and go to amazon UK to buy Junglesound Vol 2. Oh, and Darrison raps over the songs on part 2 of cd1. Not terrible, but he's quite annoying on the "Another Planet". I'm just upset I found this out after purchasing the CD.

IMPORTANT!!!

From the mouth of Rob from Pendulum:

RE: 'JUNGLESOUND GOLD'

just gotta clear this up:

a) We had no prior knowledge of the release of this CD. The first we heard of it was on discussion forums linking it to the product being sold in shops.

b) We mixed the CD back in mid-2004 - therefore the mix, as well as our tracks included on the second disc, do not reflect the Pendulum sound of today (for better or worse, thats up to you ;])

c) We never intended nor agreed to release 'Masochist VIP' - I did it in about 30 minutes as something special to play out at a show. It was only given to Fresh and Adam F in low quality mp3 format for them to play out as DJ's - not to be released.

d) We didn't approve and in fact strongly disapprove of the 'Junglesound Gold' artwork, especially in relation to our name being unfairly used as an advertisement - plainly an attempt to link 'Junglesound Gold' to the recent success of 'Hold Your Colour'.

As a result of the above, we do not endorse 'Junglesound Gold' at all.

- Pendulum.

I have to agree with the others here, I bought this album because their previous album was amazing, and I was completely disappointed, completely.

Massive double CD of some seriously hard drum & bass - Breakbeat Kaos style. CD 1 is mixed by Pendulum and hosted by MCMC & MC Darrison, CD 2 is unmixed for your pleasure! And pleasure it is from start to end pendulum rolls out dance floor rippers and some seriously hard tunes.

If you like hard drum and bass this is definately for you...if you are not into drum and bass give this a try YOU'LL LOVE IT.

I guess I took a shot in the dark with this CD. I had recently picked up Pendulums "Hold your Colours" CD which was really really good. I was listening to that CD heavily for a while and then I saw this CD, which was mixed by Pendulum, and I have to say its nothing like "Hold your Colours". But to be fair I kind of knew that seeing as the cover said "Jungle Sound". However it just ending up being unbearable D'n'B similiar to that of anything put out buy Renegade Recordings. Most of the songs have no real melody or a good build-climax-closure. Plus with all the random screaming of jungle garbage it makes this CD a waste of money in my opinion. All I can say is dont buy this CD...and incase you are interested in it, see if you can get it used or free, I wouldnt pay full price for this thing.

Terrible. No wonder their new stuff is being released on Warner. Mind you, dont check out the song propane. Its horrible.

this double cd is nothing of pendulum apart from its name. total waste of time.

the demise of BBK is well and truley on its way.
