Well I’m not alone in that American millennials and zoomers have been ‘rediscovering’ jungle since around the Trump election. I came to it out of an appreciation of post-punk and an exhaustion with pop music, realizing at some point in the 80s dance music was what was vital, signaled by the FOMO mediocrity of “Blue Monday” for instance. So I checked out 28 Gun Bad Boy around 2013 but it took a couple years for things to register, then I stumbled onto ’96 dnb thru the lens I described yesterday in the Mo Wax thread. But difference between me and my generational cohort being, they’re mostly all posers who associate jungle with anime, video games and commercial IP, bastardized 90s nostalgia and what not. I’m on the other hand a wicked authentic autodidact badman!!! Lol except theres actually plenty of people my age who are properly into jungle and hang out in online communities based around old tracker software, .mods, Amigas, etc. and they produce some amazing stuff. Props to @mvuent for his production efforts, we both ought to debut on the scene someday
just learn your tunes and listen to randall tapes. you'll learn.

Learning your own tunes also helps a lot of with making them. I have never made as much of an improvement with making proper mixdowns than in that one month February 2020 of my Catford sublet with cdjs in the living room.
Mixing your own tracks is the best triage you can give them imo
FL Studio, if you get a cracked copy. It's much easier to use than Reaper.
Post-punk is a good way of thinking about what I consider golden era jungle, only thought of it now cos of what you said.
I also love post-punk. I love dome, pil and the creatures more than I'll ever love wire, sex pistols and siouxie and Banshees.
I mean some people will talk about 94 or pre-94 a lot, hardcore. That it was the best music etc. I won't argue with that sentiment.
I accept that a certain music was better.
But that better music won't touch me in a way that fabio talking about his yearning to go to crufts touched me two til four am sleeping on a sofa after scabbing bits of tabs off the floor to build a spliff.
Pissing in the sink cos toilet too far.
Etched into my soul.
It really really isn't, with the exception of the outer edges of 93 darkside.
I'm not saying jungle is indebted to post punk musically in any way.
More like a similar process.
I'm saying that the way post punk evolved out of punk is comparable to the way the jungle I like most (dillinja, renegade terrorist , zinc and ganja kru, fabio and grooveriders show on radio 1 from 99) evolved out of first wave of jungle.
I seem to like the second order of things, if you get me.
