It's also kind of funny because most articles I have read has said that drum n bass is underground again. Alot of people were anticipating that it was going to be "the Next Big Thing" and alot of hype surrounded jungle. And it sort of retreated back into the underground. Also if dnb is so mainstream, then why are the turnouts at most shows I go to in LA under 300 people. I don't know maybe LA is too small of a town.
