I've been gone a few days, so I'm jumping into this kind of late... Maybe
you are over-generalizing a bit Kelley, but there's definitely a pattern in
Britain regarding the lusher side of drum'n'bass. It started in the
mid-'70s with jazz-funk-lite and fusion -- i.e. Roy Ayers, Lonnie Liston
Smith, etc. -- which was huge in Britain, then cycled through rare-groove in
the '80s, and acid jazz in the '80s and '90s. I'm sure quite a few
junglists listened to (or were indirectly exposed to) fusion, quiet storm,
and the breezier side of jazz while they were growing up...
