Re: Drum & Bass (was Re: Andre LaFosse -> essential loop recordings)



it seems to me the genre is "electronica", sub-genre of "techno", and the
style is "drum 'n bass / jungle" ... so it's somewhat defined based on its
lineage ... but where the style names originated for "drum 'n bass" &
"jungle" is unknown to me, probably in some underground club in england
somewhere around '93-'94 by a dj ... in music, a style "label" rarely
defines the actual content accurately ... "illbient" isn't even a word in
the english dictionary ... but we can thank dj spooky for that one.
