it does but the sci-fi po-mo side of jungle thought is quaint in a way that many even older things aren't
it's quaint in the way an angelfire or whatever website from 1996 would be

fair enough. I'd read it tho.
guilty as charged: i do like that casper pound quote in energy flash tbh:
"The best thing about hard-core is all the soul’s been taken out. We’ve had 200 years of human element in music and it’s about time for a change.’ He singled out the German scene for praise: ‘It’s stronger, it’s darker, it’s scarier … I don’t like going to a club and seeing 600 people waving their arms about with smiling faces. I like to see 600 people in a dark, hot place; it isn’t about happiness, it’s more aggressive, more intense.’"
anyway barty u wanna start a gay gabba night? can forgive u for having an au pair.

the difference in a nutshell between stompy Euro, and Detroit techno. the nuum is maybe a story of the gradual introduction of the soul, as much as anything.

It's a good direction to go in
there's that big EBM/industrial trend in techno (the successor to the noise/industrial trend)
the world can never have enough dark pulsing sexy music
thats why 94 is the best year imo, the frenzy of hardcore coupled with the soul elements. not quite perfected. the best kind of music.

if you look around, somewhere there's an old thread I started devoted to happy jungle hardcore
the last period before happy hxc went pure candy stomp, and jungle started trading the sexiness for more hardness/skunk darkness, etc
I'm a big fan

curious, what age would that be? it was late college years and then the first few years out of college for me (first time in the workforce at a largish company where i encountered a lot of people), so in the 20-25 year old range. pretty much every friend i currently have is from college or early work days.
that said, i have two significant outliers to that theory: i made one new good friend about five years ago, and i first met my wife when i was probably twice as old as some people on this forum...
they are the only good friends i've made since my mid-20s. sure, i've made other acquaintances over the years who i might meet up with once a year or converse with occasionally on email, but nothing more than that.
