Talk:Jungle music

I think this page really should redirect to jungle_(music) but the text would have to be merged.
- Article is now titled jungle (music). Redirects fixed --Lexor|Talk 08:02, 2 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Who put this page up saying that drum n bass was a type of house and that it was for people that wanted to dance faster but weren't into hard house? dnb and jungle is a completely seperate genre, defined by a different energy.
thanx for adding the 2-step thing though, i always forget about that. But i rewrote the article based on what i know of jungle and drum n bass, which since i make it i think is fairly solid. I hope I didn't piss anybody off.
Moved Jungle (music) to Jungle music
I moved Jungle (music) here to mimic al other musical genres (e.g. Ambient music Techno music Electronic music Heavy metal music ...).
cleaned up the text
hey, i make jungle to, i just cleaned up the text a bit. good job.
Argument for redirect to DnB article
I find that compared to the DnB article, this article is pretty lacking. I'd like to just redirect to the Drum and Bass article (which is excellent), as I feel that any distinction between the two terms has ceased to exist (most DnB artists will tell you the two terms refer to the same thing). What do you guys think about that? Themindset 17:02, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
I feel people are still confused about jungle & drum n bass, which are two different styles. Drum n bass has its roots in jungle music, it gradually changed in sound as more and more people from different muical backgrounds started making jungle-style tracks, influencing eachother and sparking crativity for new sounds and approaches in the genre. About the origins of jungle music: it came to life in the early 90's rave-scene, when people like Slipmatt, Remarc, Doc Scott & many others started integrating reggae, ragga and hiphop into their dance music. Instead of a straight 4/4 beat they started using breakbeats as percussion, backed with slower rub-a-dub style baslines and (short) vocal clips put on top. The classic track "On a ragga tip" by Slipmatt is a good example of this merging of styles.
unfortunately, that distinction is no longer considered to be valid by the majority of artists/fans of the genres. Themindset 23:43, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
