I know. It's a decent sound to use for cut-up jungle breakbeat, salsa tinged stuff, but after awhile, it bores you. That's why I don't buy jungle albums, and i'll get the odd jungle/breakbeat 12''. I actually got interested in the sounds via Rising High, '91-'92. Shit, how many tracks can you roll a snare backwards, and expect people to listen to it for more than 50 minutes. Oh, that goes for rimshots also!!!! Derek
