Chelsea Manning and The Black Madonna had a short exchange on Twitter last night, celebrating jungle, drum ‘n’ bass and the “miracle” of music.
The conversation started with Manning quoting a tweet about dubstep becoming uncool and saying, “ive been listening to drum and bass since 2001 – i really dont give a –”. She followed up on that tweet by posting, “wicked – jungle is massive =P”.
After that, The Black Madonna celebrated the fact that Chelsea Manning “is a junglist and everything is goooooooood.” Check out their exchange below.

dubplates did have a lovely feeling. Heavy and a little cold. I miss that.

Yes! Each time you hear it, there’s a little loss. Each hearing is unique and a little more ghostly than the last. Ahh, music is a miracle.
