@charlie_root @3T @iska @p @nishi @agentcasey I don't even know what rollers means 👴

I think I've said it before but the jump-up dnb stuff remind me a lot of the late stages of where dubstep went with the "transformers fucking" type of sound. Early dubstep was closer to dub, quite slow but still new sounding.

My progression was probably old jungalist, very basic tracks that had a dancehall sound with Barrington Levy, Capelton etc, to people taking it from the UK MCs to Jamaican dancehall MCs directly, lots of John Holt samples. Then I started preferring producers that had more interesting, changing and complicated drum patterns and fell into breakcore as an extension of that.

Hardcore was around at the time but I never paid much attention, but I should have! It's still around today and belongs somewhere in the dnb continuum family tree.
