Firstly, Sad But True doesn't sound remotely jungly.
Second, no offence to Are We Here, I reckon its a wicked track,
but Orbital, and all techno bands who've dabbled in Jungle
are nothing more than a side line, who have had *no* affect on
the development of jungle. I recommend a listen to Bukem's new
compilation 'Logical Progression' if you want to see the
development of the intelligent style, as pioneered by the
Good Looking/Looking Good labels.
