it went from a "soulful" sound that referenced jazz, r+b, hiphop,
reggae, etc to a cold technical sound. it seriously is almost an exact
parallel to jungle moving to techstep. and of course of hardcore
moving to "darkside". its just the path that UK dance genres seem to
take.

i think detroit techno has maintained its goodness far better than DnB
did. with jungle it just dropped off entirely. unless youre the most
cold hearted cynic out there, if you were a fan of the original
detroit techno records, you can still find records from detroit that
you would like.

i dont mind evolution. there is just a point where these UK genres
quit being about creativity and things all start sounding samey and
dark and boring.
