I so disagree with you. Jungle is very static and rehashed. I used to be a big fan a bit over a year ago, when I began to notice that these tunes were more and more the same repetive shlock. Sure the first time I heard some driving dark tech-step I was amazed and psyched by the energy it could create on a dance floor. But it soon became boring. And now it just gives me a headache if I'm forced to listen to it for more then 10 minutes. I'm looking forward to not going to Grooverider and Fabio this thursday. brian tang royalblue technologies
