Did I ever use the word cheesy? As I said every part of it was well
written just something about (one of) the main part(s) that doesn't
quite fit with me. But the first music I really got into and DJ'd for
many years was DnB (and Jungle) but I probably like less than 5% of the
liquid stuff. Which is maybe slightly more than the amount of jump up I
like... Techstep and darkness or proper jungle was always my styles. But
the world would be a very boring place if we all liked exactly the same!! :)
Dale.
