All Crews: Journeys Through Jungle Drum & Bass Culture
All Crews: Journeys Through Jungle Drum & Bass Culture is a non-fiction book written by author, DJ and journalist Brian Belle-Fortune. Described by music journalist Bill Brewster as a ‘Jungle History’, the book chronicles the development of the Jungle Drum & Bass style of UK dance music, and its emergence from earlier Breakbeat Hardcore and acid house styles.
All Crews explores the origins of the Jungle Drum & Bass sound through a selection of non-fiction articles, creative writing pieces and interviews with key Jungle Drum & Bass artists. Belle-Fortune also examines and interviews the pirate radio stations, labels, crews, promoters and ravers that the scene grew from and revolved around.
Initially published in 1999 as All Crew Muss Big Up, it was well received by the Jungle Drum & Bass Community, but sold out quickly, fell out of print and developed a cult following. It was reprinted in 2004 featuring both the original text and also updated interviews and writing. All Crews has also been translated into Russian and Italian.
While it is currently out of print, another updated edition is forthcoming in 2026.
