I meant daytime-radio-friendly as in badly produced, house derived cheesy vocal jungle that makes me want to shit in someone's breakfast it's that bad. Whether it's hard (which the Chillaz track purports to be) or soft, or syrupy doesn't matter.

No, not quite. You were there attacking a record (which I've not heard, and may indeed be crap) simply for being soft and light, which kind of describes some of the drum'n'bass I like (Bukem, Chameleon) and just to dismiss it as crap because of this, well it stinks to me, and I thought I'd piss in your particular pool for a cheap laugh ;-) Not all jungle has to be jump-up mayhem or techstep cut-up coldness to be good, in just the same way that all techno doesn't have to be demonic gabba-esque banging, which is what I gathered you thought from the tone of your post.
