ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haha ha ha ha ha Mmmmph. Well it was another wild prediction that came true. It was obvious in 94/95 that certain idm stalwarts were starting to dabble in d+b if anyone did that first it was global communications dont forget that rdj did tracks like this years ago as well i think the first one released was the remix on Wagon X Redone EP (Rising High) I used this f-word to describe the plug eps and the early squarepusher stuff and now I guess you would have to add T-Power, spymania, and others who clearly have no intention of obeying the rules set down by the jungle dons. i also predicted that these artists would be far more successful outside the Uk nowadays my focus is more appropriately called Triangle you could imagine this as a fusion of triphop/ambient+jungle if you really must the best thing about writing for the press is the ability to perpetrate memes like this i also coined the term 'corporate house' which is gaining new currency as the mainstream DJs head ever further into a heap of overcommercialised bullshi i love my job! mixmaster morris
