Future garage and now future jungle?!

[monkers]

tbh over the last few days ive heard loads of people talking about "future jungle".
its getting out of hand with all these new sub genres im overwhelmed

[notez_]

Pretty painful. I've never been to sure when someone decides to create a genre for themselves/pigeon hole their music.

I'll stick with the old stuff.

Ever noticed how the people who pour the most energy into 'subgenres' are the ones who are opposed to them? o.O If it's all about the music, why do you spend time arguing about how 'pointless' subgenres are instead of simply listening to the music and not giving a fuck what other people are calling it?

Well, maybe we should stop hating... Dubstep used to be a sub-genre too. But yeah, i'm not that into this EP - But the skream 140-154 jungle(or what ever)-tunes are great. And if it's great music, fuck what you call it.

Agreed. Skream's "Epic Last Song" is just that.

not to mention burning up, listening to the records on my wall, bentons sax shaker, dark skys something to lose...
all a similiar sorta tip. i love it personally, and its a pleasure to mix!!

Jungle developed out of essentially boredem of the standard 4X4 and breakbeats of the early nineties. the beats were scattier and destandardised and a lot of people couldnt cope with it so if you take that as the original inspiration for 'jungle' then you have to follow that root

One thing that's noticeable about those Fresh tunes is that they've still got the trancey linear structure with riffs and obvious breakdowns and looping beats without the manic start-stop thing and messed up disruption that made classic jungle so insanely genius.

(Also they're still loaded with bobbins midrangey reece basses.)

There are better places to go for oldskool vibes, imo - Inperspective / Technicality / Scientific Wax is another branch that have got something going on.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing...

Something to lose is always a good listen... And yeah, it mixes beautifully, big up the dark sky crew.

met a couple of the dark sky lads last night. really really nice geezas! and yea its such a good tune to mix, especially with anything by joker, just seems to go perfectly!!

[jarmzeyboy]

I'm not hating buttt I'm not into this future-genre business - it is what is

[lkd]

Future nothing.
Its either Jungle, Garage or something else.
Ive said it before on this board.
It cant be future Jungle/Garage if its happening now.

That Fresh E.P is Gash too, But someone said on here he hasnt made anything good since leaving Bad Company.
What about Heavyweight.
Weighty Tune.

Yeah, really great guys. I've chatted with one of the guy numerous times. They deserve as much love as possible.

[sc0tty]

He hasn't made a decent tune since he left Bad Company.

Signal????

[64hz]

for some reason now, every time i read the word 'jungle' i read it 'yungle'

[jsml]

He hasn't made a decent tune since he left Bad Company.

Signal????

Hmm, yeah, okay, I'll give him that one. And credit where it's due I'll give him this one too:



But that album he released and this EP and most of the stuff he's done since BC is fucking atrocious.

What's even worse is he's calling it Jungle (I don't care for the future part). Jungle is the finest music ever to grace god's green earth. Not that shite.
