jungle, the future?

i was just wondering what people thought about this. i was listening to what used to be buzz LIVE on my local radio station here in dc. since it was shut down, john tab and scott henry just played buzz favorites and took people's calls to share their favorite buzz moment. well, right after the commercial, john tab came on, and told everyone to keep their head up, and that buzz may be shut down, but buzzlife productions isnt. the thing that caught my ear, was when he said, 'remember, jungle is the future of the scene.' i just wanted people thoughts on that matter. also, if their are any fans of jungle out there? i know, i don't mind a little here and there at all. please post comments.

jungle is good
darkside/darkstep is better

Ya, so is trance and techno, house etc.

Jungle has been more underground compared to trance/house. I hope it would stay that way. I love jungle.

It seems that most people in the scene feel like you. The fact is that thanks to quality acts like Kosheen and ILS (more recently) d&b has been gaining momentum all year. Clubs the world all over are taking it into account for the winter season that is about to begin.

I absolutely love listening to Drum and Bass to start a night off. Problem is, I find the tracks get really really repetitive after a while. (I know thats an old argument usually used to bash trance itself) - it's great to listen to, but after anything more than a couple hours, I crave some melody and hard moving body groovin' prog or trance. Just my 2 cents,

Pnuemo, the reason for this is that Buzzlife is MAINLY a drum n bass promoter company and that has always been their real focus. DIESELBOY was a resident here among other jungle superstar djs. DC trance is mainly Glow. It is true that Buzz was getting some big trance names to come to Nation@Buzz, but those were just exceptions.

Remember, Buzzlife=JUNGLE. Of course they're gonna say that's the future. Anyways, drum and bass is awesome and has been around since the early nineties, but it's just another genre and so is trance.
