About

The Jungle Beat began in the basement of my friend Marc’s house one night in the early 90′s.  I suppose that “fanzine”was the closest one word description of the publication,but I hated that word,so I called it a music newsletter.  With Lotus AmiPro (their Word equivalent at the time) and a few random articles about music,The Jungle Beat was born.  Our distribution was our local college campus,in various places around Rutgers University.. any place we could place a couple hundred copies.  With a number of record (yes,record) company contacts,we reviewed CDs,interviewed artists,and reviewed live shows.   This hobby became a great amount of fun,and an equal amount of work.  Combined with being Program Director and then Music Director at our Livingston College radio station,many colleagues wondered how I didn’t end up doing this professionally.  I miss it,though,and with this site,I’m bringing it back.  I’ll bring in some archival articles as I dig them up,especially some interviews I’m particularly proud of.     Yes,I was young and asked boring questions.  Get over it!  Please enjoy,and thank you so much for visiting.   –George Huang
