what i mean by intelligent (maybe i should have just used well thought out instead of intelligent) is that its not just some sped up drum loop with an anemic wash of synths over it ... what alot of what im hearing sounds like ... with alot of people jumping on the drumnbass wagon or jungle wagon or whatever the media wants to call it ... what i have enjoed recently has been songs like plug's life of the mind on drum and bass for papa ... a song with a structure and with depth ... and multi layers of meaning ... not just some dribble that people will dance to just cuz someone calls it drum and bass ... . annwn . .
