    I have been listening to Mc DET since 1993, and in all this time I have never heard him speak, so this interview was very refreshing. I heard with my own ears, the transition of sound between 94-95, from Jungle to DnB. DET you are a living Legend of the MIC, cannot wait to hear you grace the dance floors again.

    This was a brilliant interview with Det. He was one of my favourite MCs alongside Navigator and Shabba. Det always had a very original recognisable, distinct voice and flow on the mic which in turn made the popular tracks of that time feel even better to the ears! And Big Up Brockie who has always been my goto DJ. Just brings back memories of Telepathy at Wax Club Stratford!!!

    Ron, loving these interviews, what a great idea hearing about the backgrounds of the original players.
    I was there from the early days and followed the scene around, went to all the fevers, started to go to all the record shops, like black market, lucky spin, horice on the Camden market etc picking up tunes. And then got into producing, putting together a few akia samples, with a cracked copy of cubase on an atari 1040st and started cutting dubs at music house and the exchange.
    The MC problem is my eyes was that some Mc's loved the sound of their own voice and wouldn't give the DJ space to mix and blend, However NOT all mc's some mc;s such as Det, Conrad knew when to stop and let the DJ do their thing.
    Coming from a mixed race background - my mum was white and my step dad black, so grew up listening to reggae and loved the ragga vocals in the tunes, BUT sadly as time went on, there were so many up and coming producers just thinking they can slap a reggae sample half speed over an amen and pressing low quality tunes looking to make a quick buck. It just got silly.... then when the vocals stopped the tunes got very dark and moody and the scene changed in my eyes, as Det said no girls were going to the jams and they started to get a bad name.
    Anyway now 50 im still loving the tunes (prefer the old skool stuff) but great to hear these podcasts from the pioneers of something that the UK should be proud off. Well done for putting this together! It's always been a London Ting :)
    Please can we have; Brockie, Photek, Andy C, Dillinja, Bukem, Ray Keith, Doc Scott, Krust, Adam F, Nicky BM - also we need to hear your background and movement within the scene. :)

    Forever true to his brand.
    And it has to be said, his message was always pure positive energy, even as the scenes other MCs went down a road of pure aggression, their lyrics portraying violent roadman mentality etc..
    Met him in the Summer of 98.
    If you think your boy is hench now, you should have seen him in day. Absolute wardrobe but the most chill man you'll ever come across.
    Growing up in SW London, Brockie and Det on Kool was the first Pirate tape I'd ever heard outside of Don FM.
    I must've been 14, so 1995.
    Second was Flirt, Shockin, Shabba, Skibz.. Legendary tape that I cannot find a copy of for love or money.
    Getting old enough to go to events was like going to see Gods to me.
    Jungle was nuts back then I swear.

Featuring those behind the first underground promotions, such as Clink St, Confusion, Ratpack, Jericho, Freedom, Fantastic Ibiza etc. Pioneering DJ's we don't hear from like Frankie Valentine, the Runtings Crew, Richie Fingers and of coarse the producers who created and shaped the sounds from Hardcore to Jungle like Shut Up and Dance, Dego & Marc Mac (Tom & Jerry), Potential Badbwoy etc etc

    It seems MC Dets career and the MC game in general has been lot more precarious from than would seem from an outsider looking in point of view, and I guess that is what he has always had to fight for.
    As a young teenager and with Kool FM being at its peak, the MC’s have always been at the front and center of that. To me the MC’s were just as important as the DJ and it was Jungle that did that. For a young ghetto yout I always regarded these guys as massively successful but I guess that was from my small London rave scene context. I guess there are broader contexts to be considered like Artistic success, Commercial success, Global success or something that bolsters you firmly into a long term career and constant work. Again in music, that can be a fight for anyone and I think MC has been a massive winner to achieve that.
    What also can’t be denied is Det and all other Jungle MC’s part in helping along the British rap scene into the huge place in our culture it has today and the should forever get all the credit and recognition they deserve that.
    On this Jungle Committee meeting, correct me if I’m wrong but I always thought the story went that Goldie stepped away from the Ragga Jungle sound first and was one of the main players with MetalHeadz to develop it into D&B and TechStep. Then after Jungles peak in 94-95 and UK Garage stealing the spotlight, all Jungle seemed to follow that into sounding like the Drum & Bass format. Of course eventually D&B would even look to Grime and Dubstep for influences in which the MC become even more important again. So another win for MC culture. Again it’s Jungle MC’s & guys like MC Det that we owe that debt.
    Loving the Show DJ Ron, keep up the amazing work. 🤘🏼💜🔥😜👍🏼

    I absolutely love videos like this, so many great stories from/about so many influencers in the scene, each one will recollect something a bit differently (and in Rons case with the meeting, not at all 😁 ) but in most I've seen the story/timeline of jungle to DnB seem to be on point, although I never realised about the raves changing to mostly men (I was 14 at the time) I'm guessing that was around 96 with early jump up (dope dragon era) through the intelligent/techy era until early 2001/2 when DnB was making a bit of a renaissance and garage was dying.
    That part of Dets timeline seemed a bit out as jungle was gettinh locked down around 95 as said because of the moody ragga element bringing trouble to raves, garage in those days was mainly soulful bubbling stuff with the darker elements in speed garage and I don't recollect there being much trouble around that scene, If I remember correctly things changed for garage around 2000 with MC culture switching from hosting the night to lyrics promoting badness and the music following suit.
    And also as another parallel with jungle the old guards of the scene held a meeting about what to do about the likes of so solid, heartless, PAYG etc.
    Then that died and it moved to grime, rinse and repeat.
    In a way it was a good thing that what happened happened and the movement had another direction to head in to keep the music relevant to allow it to come full circle again.

    I still can't believe Skiba has gone. I saw Det at Ministry last year and passed on condolences. Those two for me back in the day were untouchable together. The best Tape I ever had was an Innovation one. Brockie, Skiba & Det. The amount of times I played that Tape was almost unhealthy lol it was cracked and I had to do the pencil trick to wind it back up after nearly every play towards the end. Gutted I'll probably never hear it again. R.I.P Skibz, rest easy man. 😢

    Oh my days, brilliant interview. History lesson, politics, class, finance, race and jokes after jokes. Was crying with laughter when MC Det was talking about Timberland meeting. I don't know how Ron never knew about this meeting. Wish there were names for those trying to kill the art and creativity and trying to reduce a certain section of People from coming. The same happened to Garage. This interview could have went on longer. Love to know more about the public school boys promoters. Great work Ron. I'm getting through all these interviews and nervous that I will finish them before you release a new one.
