Catalogue note
Large fold-out flyer for the official 1994 Jungle Soundclash competition at Roller Express in Edmonton, London. It documents two qualifying rounds on 14 May and 18 June followed by the Grand Final on 16 July, presenting the competition as a public decision over the leading jungle DJs. The object preserves participant portraits, biographical snippets, venue infrastructure, ticket prices, a large London/South-East ticket-outlet network, sound/lighting details, security language and the event's visual branding. The grand final later survived on video and audio, giving this flyer a direct relationship to surviving documentation of the event itself.
Advertised programme: 14 May, Round 1: Younghead; DJ Rap; Kenny Ken; Darren Jay; M-Beat. MCs Moose & Five-O. Arena 2, Kool FM Hit Squad: Swift; Tonic; Rodney T; Trace; MC Rema-Dee. 18 June, Round 2: Danny Brakes (printed form); Devious Dee; Cool Hand Flex; Mickey Finn; Bug Khan & The Plastic Jam. MCs Moose & Five-O. Arena 2: M.C.I.D.; Kane; Jinxs; Easy-D; MC P.S.G. Final: 16 July; competitors and event line-up determined by the competition, not established by this flyer.
Historical context: The three-date competition asks the audience to determine the winner and final bill. The Kool FM Hit Squad credits connect the main contest to pirate-radio programming; the shuttle from Tottenham Hale and bulk ticket offer connect all three dates operationally. The promoters claim more than six years’ experience: retain that as their statement, not a verified foundation date.
Confidence / uncertainty: Printed “Danny Brakes” differs from the established Danny Breaks name. The final has its own date but no confirmed performer list on this object; do not copy either qualifying-round bill into it.

Further sources
Event details are drawn from the held object and the qualified catalogue research above. A printed bill establishes an advertised booking, not confirmation that a performer appeared.
Why this object matters
The multi-round Jungle Soundclash programme directly documents organised competition, audience participation and the scene's status-making machinery. Retain exceptional significance alongside Advance Party's primary organisational evidence, while distinguishing an advertised competition from a foundational recording. The final's participants are not reconstructed from the qualifying-round bills.
Evidence limits: No new physical inspection or collation was performed. Copy-specific conclusions remain limited to the retained catalogue and accession evidence.
