tell that to morris. i've read email, interviews of the sort where he sees his mission as wiping out hardcore.

i'm sorry, but anyone into hardcore and jungle can prove this statement to be incorrect. there were slamming tracks that were more in the intelligent mode of things. hell, 2 bad mice's bombscare was slagged off as being cheesey rave music on this list not long ago, and the poster was insulted about it, but i'm sorry, i don't see this track as being cheesey at all...! what was this...'91 when it came out? and it was well wikked, breaks with some synths, and it's funny how the god of idm (afx) is toted as the master of idm when 60% of his tracks can't compare to bombscare. i suppose that's opinion though.

i am glad you are now finding out how great jungle can be. i'm not going to call you a bandwagon jumper either. it's just that when someone rampages in the press on how he's going to try and wipe out hardcore and then suddenly switches and is now trying champion it...it makes me sick. i'm sorry, but i have to say it.

man, i love jungle. since hardcore i've loved it. and i could understand why people could hate the happy hardcore stuff (chippy vox, silly synths, etc.) but about late '92 and throughout '93 these wikked records were coming out and frankly i don't know why the idm crowd didn't stumble across these and love them...dj rap & aston's 'jeopardy', rap's 'spiritual aura', boogie time's 'dark stranger' q bass mix, 2 bad mice's 'underworld', deep blue's 'helicopter' ('94), and anything coming from the reinforced stable. why was no one listening then? why was everyone still slagging it, and why was morris damning it? anyway, i'm not going to post on this topic to this list after this one. i'm sure some people are glad to hear that, and that's why i am doing it anyway. do us a favour and don't post 'cheers' responses. and i promise not to post all the private agreements i've gotten from people. :) if anyone wants to carry this on in private, feel free. -- o _/,_ . /o...\__// fk453@cleveland.freenet.edu \_'__/``\` \`
