Dangerous Remixes
Potential Badboy
Released: 13 Mar 2026
Label: Tru Thoughts
Following the release of his acclaimed jungle album ‘Elusive’, UK rave pioneer Potential Badboy returns with ‘Dangerous Remixes’, reimagining two of the album’s most commanding tracks. Where ‘Elusive’ explored collaboration, reflection and reinvention, ‘Dangerous Remixes’ zeroes in on raw energy and impact. This is jungle reduced to its pressure points: heavyweight rhythms, punchy vocals and mixes built for the dancefloor.
Leading the release is Dangerous Is Dangerous (Tim Reaper Remix), mixed by Tim Reaper, one of the UK’s most respected figures in modern jungle. Widely recognised for his role in shaping the genre’s contemporary resurgence, Reaper was recently featured in Resident Advisor’s Best 200 Electronic Tracks 2000–2025, who noted in their write-up, “Tim Reaper wasn’t the first millennial to attempt jungle revivalism, but he’s certainly been the best in class.”
For Tru Thoughts, the collaboration felt especially significant. With Tim Reaper reworking a track by one of jungle’s original pioneers, the remix becomes a genuine meeting point between generations, respectful of the foundations while pushing the sound forward with clarity and weight. Featuring the unmistakable presence of the Ragga Twins, the remix sharpens the original’s warning-call energy into a tightly engineered, peak-time tool.
On the flip, We Are Dangerous (VIP Remix) by Potential Badboy himself, he hands vocal duties to Junior Dangerous, delivering a fresh, uncompromising take. Potential Badboy strips the track back before rebuilding it with added tension and punch, primed for reloads and rewinds in the dance.
The package is completed with instrumental versions of both remixes, underlining Potential Badboy’s precision as a producer and offering selectors full freedom to work the tracks deep into their sets. With ‘Dangerous Remixes’, Potential Badboy reinforces what ‘Elusive’ made clear: after more than three decades shaping jungle, drum & bass and UK rave culture, his sound remains direct, relevant and uncompromising. This is music rooted firmly in sound system culture, honouring the past while staying locked into the present.
