Well... if you search on some pretty commercial proggies for "Trance", u might get "Jungle - Rave - Trance" in the title....
What is actually "Jungle"?? Some sort of DnB? :conf:

Anyone know of "Jungle" sets from 97-00?
I need more knowlege... :)

Depending who you ask, definitions may vary and cancel each other out (in some ways).

To some, jungle is an earlier form of drum-'n'-bass that evolved gradually out of hardcore upping the BPMs and breakbeats in the early-mid 90s. To others, jungle is a "rougher, raw" type of drum-'n'-bass, hence the name "jungle" which could be part of "urban jungle", or rough life in the city (as featured in Goldie's "Inner City Life"). Some avoid the term as they believe it is racist, i.e. as in "jungle bunny" referring to Euro black people making their urban music like how it is paralleled in the States as hip-hop/rap culture.

For what it's worth, the allmusic.com definition (worth checking out but can't be linked to) combines both of them under the same heading. I believe the overlap is pretty big anyway and not worth quibbling about.

Hope this helps :)

IMO Jungle is the warmer sound of dnb, also the earlier sound. 97 -00 sets? Please. Jungle hit its peak in the early 90s... Jungle usually doesnt follow the 2 step pattern you hear in a lot of drum and bass... its sort of like the stuff tech itch makes but warmer. A lot of the time it has vocals over it. Well most of the time. Its the best.
