  1. Ranked No. 5 in Juke and Footwork

    Rashad's gift was making the style hospitable without slowing it down — soul samples and drum-and-bass warmth over patterns that still refuse to resolve. The record that took footwork worldwide.

  2. Picked by The Waxonia Desk — 160

    Chicago arriving at the same tempo from a completely different direction. The overlap between footwork and jungle is the premise of this list, and this is the record that makes it undeniable.

  3. Picked by The Waxonia Desk — Footwork Travels

    The one that went furthest, and it went out on somebody else's label. Opening a door and then watching other people walk through it is the standard fate of a scene's first champion.

  4. Picked by The Waxonia Desk — Ghosts

    Chicago, not London, and still recognisably part of the same project. Either the argument ends here or it stops being about Britain, and the record is better evidence for the second.

  5. Picked by The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred

    Soul samples and drum-and-bass warmth over patterns that refuse to resolve. The record that made the hardest rhythm in America hospitable without slowing it down.
