Heehee, you could use (genre)-not-(genre) to refer to
artists who have been banished by the style's snobbish
establishment elite. A musical "Island of Misfit
Toys" where all the innovation happens. =)
Personally, I think jungle is jungle-not-jungle. How
did rock beats become acceptable in a form that
challenged 4-to-the-floor with such ferocity?
while we're on the subject, can anybody give me some
dnb help? After all these years, i'm still addicted to
those beats. The playlists i've been reading (thank
you!!) have generally included a couple dnb tunes,
most of which i'm familiar with. I'm really having
trouble finding tunes I like in the regular jungle
sections of the stores, so I'm hoping to trade hints
with other people who are gleaning good stuff from
other sources. as a guide, i've been all over stuff
like:
badmarsh and shri (more asian breakbeat!!! please!!!
this stuff is great!), that matsouka record I whined
about several times on the list (bright east) which
has some japanese vocals that i love, I'll probably
get Monday Michuru's record based on the single I
heard, King Kooba, Mr scruff, Funki Porcini is my good
friend these days, and on the harder edge of things,
stuff on 5hq, global thang, anything by johnny L.
Things I've passed up include the krust "coded
language" stuff, anything on virus, basically anythign
cold and "boom cha" that doens't reference something
outside it's own incestuous pool of influences. I
like jazz in my jungle, but I can't get into Urban
flavour and weaker stuff like that. (I think it was
brock who had the perfect description: "sample a horn
and call it jazz")
Anyone know of really good latin-influenced dnb?
Elson, what is your work like? (my computer sound
stuff is broken)
