The connection between footwork and jungle is hardly a new thing. At least, on an aesthetic level. The Teklife crew, Chrissy Murderbot, Quadratic and more have been exploring that crossover space for a little while now, but "Waiting On You", a dark-yet-melodic, R&B-tinged effort from Graeme S and Faiza (featured on the Jade Temple EP), adds a whole new dimension. Over a brooding, atmospheric beat, Faiza beautifully laments the frustration of life's unpredictable nature. A nuanced and emotive take on both sounds, the Hsüan Records boss takes the vocals beyond the usual parameters of dance music, embuing them with a sense of melancholy that draws the listener in and never lets go.
