Jungle Music happens to be the most versatile rhythm.  Jungle is a variation of break-beat that has evovled intoSeveral branches of Jungle, taking a hip-hop beat and speeding it up to around 100bpm(beats per minute) is whats done.From Easy to listen Jazz Jungle, to Intelligent crazy fast-past Mash-Up, you'll find jungle even in some of The commercials you see on television.   For one, Jungle has abilities that other forms of music can't duplicate.  It can Start, Stop, Slow down, anywhere in mid play.  Effects range from a variety of reverbs and flanging.  Vocals vary from Sweet singing girls, to hip-hop rhymes bustin in your ear.   I for one love jungle and can talk about it forever.  To tie thingsUp, I'll tell you about the different type of jungle that exist currently. Although there are so many different types emerging, I'll name just the few popular ones.

Types of Jungle

  JAZZ JUNGLE
 

With its hard hitting snares and unbelievable jazz samples.  Jazz Jungle is an ultamite comcombination of two musical rhythm's that we're meant to meet along time ago. It's recognizable by its soft trumpet intro's and synthesized stringed instruments.  Jazz jungle its slow around 60bpm(beats per minute), and perfect to listen to when you want to think.

  INTELLIGENT JUNGLE
 

Timing is everything when it comes to Intelligent Jungle.  This perhaps is my favourite type of  jungle that exists.   Concentrating on repetition and soft, smooth samples, intelligent  jungle has an definate difference from others.  If you like hard hitting, complicated beats  then look no further.  While its very difficult to get your digits on some decent Intelligence I suggest the following...

Recommendations: Photek - Science, Promised Lands - The New Future, metalheads - Platinum Breaks #1 & #2

  MASH UP JUNGLE
 

The name is intriging, yes!? Another one of my favourites, fast hitting, complicated beats,   With a twist of crazyness in every song.  Usually accompanied with some interesting vocal Samples or SFXs.  Mash-Up is definately the roots of jungle.  This is where it all originated  From. A definate pick for any new or vetran jungle enthusiast.

Recommendations: Drum & Bass Selection
