[TheAmericanJungle]

@duhd999 had a great time in Knoxville! Look out for Teaser 2.0 coming soon with footage from our trip to Knoxville & our shooting in Denver over the last 2 months. Thanks again for all the support from around the World.

Anytime you want to cover the REAL American Jungle scene, let us know, we'd be a lot more interested in your film, 100% of the people in your trailer have already been interviewed in previous documentaries, unless you've got some serious tricks up your sleeve, this is a recycled concept that has been covered quite a few times now, at least TRY to break away from the mainstream people who obviously everybody knows about, they aren't the ones representing us to the rest of the world anymore.

[TheAmericanJungle]

@nkogliaz thanks for your comment. This is only the teaser and the interviews were shot at Electric Daisy Carnival in Denver. WE ARE TRAVELING TO OVER 40 CITIES THIS YEAR DOCUMENTING DRUM & BASS IN NORTH AMERICA. EVERY SUB GENRE & SCENE BIG OR SMALL. I promise this will be the most well rounded film made about Drum & Bass in North America. This is a big project and we have a long way to go still. Please email me at theamericanjungle@gmail.com to tell us your story.

RESPECT!!!!! L.A. THURSDAYS!!!

ewun here about the final comment on the video. its all rave music if you go back far enough i agree with that 100%. my perspective on dnb might be different from some. but a lot of the friends ive made over the years in north america can agree it's been a struggle to get dnb into the main room and keep the negative side of "rave" culture removed from the music that we all have devoted our lives to. the jungle room at a rave was its own planet, with its own mission.

*cringe*



[stereomj]

WEAK. Where is the history? Where are the innovators? Denver is NOT the epicenter of the US D&B scene...

[logic63]

looks like a lot of key players from the American d&b scene are missing from this trailer......

[dronejunglistplatoon]

no mention of funktion or respect... get the fuck outta here bro.... no matter if its a teaser! should be the first you mention! its like making a uk documentary without a mention of ram or renegade hardware.... lol

[dronejunglistplatoon]

@TheAmericanJungle till we see you in la this shit is bunk/wack/LAME!

[dronejunglistplatoon]

i hope that american jungle documentary showcases a little known clubnight here in la we call RESPECT Thursdays. didnt look like it in that teaser...

also... who the fuck are the bass disciples? surely there are other american d&b acts worthy of mention like hive, gridlok, calculon.... looks like a fucking denver doc at this point. FIX UP!

[rudles]

Never going to die! Toronto 1 love!

[coolaid7771]
