Call me strange, but I think Jungle is not the same as Drum 'n Bass. Neither is it a sub-catagory. It is a feeling, in both accoustic and electronic music. It represents a groove with ever-switching rhythms and surprising changes of direction.
Also, sampling a bar or two of jungle and repeating it at length does not make a jungle track. The chances are it is still repetative drum 'n bass.
This track is a typically Omni-Trio brand of jungle.
wasnt the move to the dnb name just a trend to move away from jungle which still associated with the rave scene which magazines like mixmag had a major problem with as it wasnt trendy enough?
"...At this time jungle began to be associated with criminals and criminal activity and perhaps as a reaction or perhaps independently of this, producers began to draw away from the ragga style and create what they labeled drum and bass."
But in some ways I doubt this. Yes in the London clubs especially, the ragga end of things got a reputation which labels such as good looking etc didnt need or want but I dont think the rest of the country was especially affected...
Fairly irrelevant really when in perspective as a good jungle tune would still rock the place
@DRUMMZER .. deffo right there mate i remember the dungeons and the sunday roast, jungle at its best but before the gun toting wankers and muppet bad boys killed it off
@DRUMMZER as I recall it,.......everyone was running away from what was a sound that increasingly was pulling in the wrong elements. Nothing to do with race/religion or creed, just the antithesis to the party culture that we enjoyed. We wanted fun, not fools after trouble. NIce one!!
What do you mean theyve moved onto jungle? Jungle came before drum and bass and Noizia and Pendulum certainly aint jungle!! This track is jungle anyway!
No matter how many times I hear Amen breaks, I can never get tired of hearing them

Experiment....The sub-bass/ deep 808 will shake dust from concrete.

It just happens to mix well into modern DnB sets.

pretty much (all of it was just 'hardcore' at the start). most of the reggae vibe in jungle was lost though

Your not going to shut down the inbred jungle vs dnb arguement are you?
Ive been promoting, producing and djing for over a decade.
Jungle and DnB are the same, sure there are genres like jump up, liquid, ragga, but its all the same.
acid progressed to breakbeat hardcore which progressed to the offshoots of jungle and hardcore (whether happy from UK or harder from Holland)
Learn your shit.

I've been djing this music for the better part of a decade, everyone else has moved on to jungle (like Noizia, Pendulum shit).
I'll never stop dropping old skool.
