    Jungle music wasn’t the problem, it was wannabe gangsta youts taking too much coke & champagne they couldn’t handle, that tainted jungle gigs! Originally, jungle raves and venues were top notch & the vibes were intoxicating & amazing. Unfortunately, it was the gangsta wannabe’s that gave Jungle music a bad rep! I was part of the birth of Acid, House & Garage & Jungle music genre era (late 1980’s - 1990’s). I raved RELIGIOUSLY, from Friday to Sunday most weekends back then, It was brilliant! It’s so sad really, because it was a beautiful time in british music history for my age group. It’s always a few that ruin it for the rest.

    It's even simpler: Jungle has more syncopated and breakier beats and funkier baselines with sometimes lighter melodies, while drum and bass has more straight ahead beats and straighter basslines. Apart from that you'll find the same dark vibes, ragga vocals. I've always loved jungle over straight ahead D&B, way more interesting.

As almost everyone in almost every forum or website kept claiming that Jungle and DnB are the same thing. When i agree that according to the history the one was inspired by the other , but the rythm and its quite different , and they sound different so why don't we just accept that they are NOT the same.

    That is an accurate story but he doesn’t really explain the difference.
    Jungle uses many layers of breaks and pivotal around the amen break. It also use’s naturally sounding low lazy bass lines that sound detached from the break.
    Drum and bass has stripped back simplified breakbeat with electronic synthesised bass lines.
    Then there’s sub-genres.

    • @notimput
      @notimput 4 месяца назад

      I think his point is: the split came due producers trying to avoid negative associations with an increasingly problematic drug culture around Jungle. Then the music continued to evolve, but now with the drum and bass label. The two terms have been used interchangeably before this (also see comments here from people from that time) and continue to be used interchangeably today. For every clear example of one thing or the other, there is also a murky example, where the lines are blurred even the die hard fans could argue forever.
      While we can point to valid differences (many good suggestions in the comments) but it is too easy to come across an example where each argument quickly falls apart. I know it sometimes feels like they’re separate genres, but over the years I had to admit to myself that that is only a matter of perception, and mostly even an illusion. Trying to separate them is only done retroactively with hindsight, but there was no strict intention to make something separate from Jungle from the beginning. I still think it is a complex matter with a lot of gray zone, but all in all, if I had to summarise it and to put it simple: Jungle is dnb, and dnb is Jungle.

    • @GavinHewitt
      @GavinHewitt 4 месяца назад

      BS, they're both the same. It's just an alternative name, nothing else. As my man @notimput says correctly, the sound evolved with a DnB label. Hip Hop for instance now is WAY different than it was in the 80's. It has evolved into a completely different sound (not for the better btw 😕), but the essence is still Hip Hop.

    We asked this question in the early 90's when the music was in its infancy. Both the terms 'Jungle' and 'Drum and Bass' were in use simultaneously to describe the same music. The term drum and bass was used previously in the 70's to describe Dub versions of reggae songs. It also describes Jungle in the sense that the melody is often in the base track, while the drums provide the rhythm over the top (as with dub reggae which heavily influenced it). Approaching the mid 90's artists like Goldie pioneered a purer , more technical form of this music with tracks like 'Angel' that we recognised as different/ transitional and at the same time the old name Jungle gave way to the term Drum and Bass. We didn't know how lucky we were.

BASS AND DRUMS! none of that happy piano shit, it was proto jungle, jungle and drum and bass were the same thing originally.

      Truth. Jungle raves were always described as “too black, too dark” as the split from the hardcore scene became more apparent, as previously we were all “hardcore, salt and pepper”. The white folk lost interest which fuelled the start of “happy hardcore” (any idea why it was called that?) I would regularly have to exit events due to a night being shut down as things were also getting a bit out of hand. Jungle had unfortunately gained a bad reputation in London anyway. If you don’t understand this you obviously weren’t there. Tek 9 even addressed this in “you got to slow down“ in ‘93. Such a shame but that’s the truth.

    i think DNB lost that ruffian/ thug phase a long time ago. When i got into it in 98 here in states in LA , jungle was huge, still is and dnb. But we had alot of the bad elements especially at the larger parties downtown. Shootings, rapes, drug deals gone bad inside parties(primarily b asian gangs/Hispanic
    ). The Orion venue in LA could be a damn right scary in the jungle area lol. But that seems to have gone away, the bad vibes of late 90s, early 00s in current parties.

It started as break beat. It's faster. It came from jungle, but its different. And a world away from what it is now. Safer, but those who were there in the late 90s had the time of their lives.

    The thing that is really missing out there is a solid explanation of how these genres evolved, providing actual examples of tracks released and therefore the date they occured. For example, is there an earlier example of the term "drum and bass" being used than the version of Charly on the September 1992 album 'Experience' by The Prodigy? Obviously for it to be called "Trip into Drum and Bass version" the phrase must have been in general use, and I doubt Liam himself invented the genre - more likely he heard another track (or multiple tracks) and made a version of Charly in that style.

    • @imprss
      @imprss 8 месяцев назад +2

      Yes, we used to call the genre Hardcore, this was the popular term around 1991 when we was in School in London but even hardcore had fragmented styles to it, for example Hardcore-Jungle was identified as having elements of reggae/Dancehall samples in it, Happy-Hardcore had elements of pianos and pitched up vocals (due to the non existence of pitch shifting/timestretching technology of Akai/Emu samplers at the time, Happy Hardcore was more uplifting and melodic, there was also Darkside which was moody, making use of big scary/haunting synth stabs and movie samples.
      Eventually as more young black British kids adopted Hardcore, the use of Reggae/Dancehall and Rare Groove samples spawned what is now known as Jungle. Drum and Bass was pretty Much born out of producers distancing themselves from the exploding Jungle scene and taking the music back to the absence of Reggae/Dancehall samples. Now we've kind of come full cycle and the lines between Jungle and Drum and Bass have been some what blurred but in General, Drum and Bass was always focused on instrumentation (Drums and Bass) with less Reggae vocals. The Prodigy, Acen (Trip 2 the moon) & labels such as Moving Shadow and Suburban Base were well known Hardcore record labels, and they're still going strong in the Drum and Bass/Jungle Scene.

    Im sorry but what is he talking about.. Im a producer of Jungle and Drum and Bass., i made some of the biggest Jungle and DnB tracks from 1994 to present date. I made Dred Bass { what the time dread) that was jungle as pure as it gets. no one said lets called it DnB to get more venues for gigs. jungle got its name from Mc mad P from Top Buzz. he started saying this is the sound of jungle techno. it progressed from there Drum and bass was a name that was also attached to the sound. Probably more so to the more intelligent style tracks such as logical progression etc.

    Jungle is basically earlier roots of drum and bass there's differences because jungle has ragga influences and slightly different to drum and bass however jungle is a subgenre of drum and bass........ More or less the same thing sort of.

      It’s not really just a name change. D&B stripped out a lot of the reggae influences.
      There are of course a lot of exceptions (Trust Me by Roni Size is a good exception.), but D&B became far more experimental and cutting edge compared to Jungle did. They aren’t the same thing but they share a lot of things.

  • @alexhammond1479
    @alexhammond1479 29 дней назад

    From my perspective as a young boy in London it was the ‘troubles in the dance’ and the resultant image change necessitated a new name. Promoters needed the name more than those in the scene (everyone hates name changes until you get used to it) to get venues like the man says here. There is a retrospective sound difference but that’s probably more of an oversimplification based on the technology available over time.

    • @typetwo

      This is a pretty accurate observation. Remember the term 'dark jungle'? When you have samples in records like 'six million ways to die, chose one' then you know violence will follow.

      no not at all, Jungle in general has lots of reggae/ragga/dancehall influences by way of samples, fx, vocals etc but in the broad spectrum of DnB & Jungle many tracks use the full range of breakbeats/drum patterns available.
      Yes in Jungle you will hear a lean towards a particular range of drum patterns and breaks which make them 'characteristic' of Junngle of course but all types of drums/breaks are used in the whole scene.

    We always used the name drum n bass I first heard the term in 92 Mc fearless on weekend rush. same with Jungle.i remember the name getting thrown about in the early days ,tunes like body snatch , way in my brain. By 93 though Jungle was running tings Leviticus , Warning , worries in the dance . Then by late 95 Drum n bass minus the old skool samples of dance hall reggae ska . Instead a lot of Gangstar krs1 samples were doing the rounds. Minimalistic tunes like pulp fiction Jungle name was being dropped and Drum n bass was on every flyer.

      I agree. both terms were always used. It’s the same genre, just a different points in time. The ‘movement’ evolved and changed quicker back then. A lot of people cherry pick the past and try to dissect all the differences into categories. Same genre, different styles. It’s always been about experimentation with sound alongside technology and going down different unexplored routes.

    “Dread bass” in 94 was the death of Jungle. It took me over a year to accept this track, it simply was not Jungle and never will be. “Booyaka” tracks were history and time has to move on. It is no doubt a primary factor why dnb is still here. I pay homage to tracks such as these and will always rinse as loud as I can for as long as I am on this earth.

      @@smartgenes1 it was a far departure from previous jungle music, the hardcore, breakbeat ,hip hop, soul, funk, rare groove, r n b, and other influences were removed. It’s a really stripped down track, literally “drum and bass” not the sort of thing you would want to be with your girl on the dance floor with! The reversed baseline which was now known as “dread bass” was soon used to many jungle remixes as it was now the way forward. I remember the day my friends at the record shop received a press, they said you must listen to this! I said “what the hell is that, it’s not jungle!” Jungle had been loosely referred to as “drum and bass” but as in more of a style, just like with reggae, in fact the album series “drum and bass” was a very good series too, “selection 1” from ’94 is probably one of the best jungle albums still to date and the hardcore influence is very prominent there. The jungle handle was soon dropped (it was gaining a bad reputation by ‘94 unfortunately) and drum and bass was the new “jungle”. I’m from NW London which was very into the scene and was in my mid twenties. I feel fortunate that I was there, right place right time
