Can't help you with any suggestions for Detroit-Jungle (hmmm...I think we've got a new musical category), but I *can* explain why J. Atkins went jungle: The track was made in collaboration with 4Hero / Jacob's Optical Stairway, and I think it's featured on their (JOS) latest full-length on R&S.

The nearest thing to detroit jungle I'm aware of, apart from the above Atkins track, are the Alex Reece remixes of Model 500's "The Flow", (which includes snippets of "No UFOs" for good measure) and of Kenny Larkin's "Loop 2" (which also appears to have bits of a Detroit classic, possible "wiggin'" or something tacked on the end and beginning.) Even ignoring the potential for ridicule of any definition or genre here, these are both great tracks!
