Nunu - Mind Body Dialogue

I do my NTS show monthly and I play new stuff. I get asked to play jungle and I say no, because I’ve left the 90s. I went through my USB stick, of stuff that I’ve been carrying around for a while, and this is one thing. It's not dance music, it's quite experimental, and it represents, to me, resistance to this idea that everything's been done. I couldn't think of anyone before that could sound like this. There is incredible stuff being made now, we are in amazingly fertile times – the idea that we're never gonna get another Raekwon is fucking bullshit – we are, all the time, we’re just getting loads of them and we can't keep up.
