I think there might be something in the sound of the drums as well that makes half-tempo or downtempo stuff by dnb producers still sound distinct. Maybe it's that they tend to be short which keeps the thing feeling sharp, maybe it's just that you recognise the sounds as characteristically drum and bassy and anticipate the speed even though it isn't there.Does it? I don't think Amit's half-time style ends up sounding like that at all - you've still got lots of ghost snare hits and other rapid elements going on.
Breakage's downtempo stuff off TTSP is a good example, too...
