*standing ovation* to stringbeans.
this whole post, and label whorring altogether is so transparent and sad.
i'm not anything, if i listen to jungle, i'm me. if i get excited about happyhardcore during the twilight morning hours at an outdoor party, i'm me. when i dance with half naked men to deep house, i'm still me. i like parties and the diversity within them. wasn't this all supposed to be about acceptance and embracing everything, when we first started? experience it all. don't reject things because of your label dynamic. who would you be then? you wouldn't be yourself, a multi-faceted being, you'd just be an empty prototype of your label definition. hmmm. a stereotype?
don't let the label define you. you define the label. then you tell the label to fuck itself.

i don't *want* to be anything. i just am. and i do everything that interests me, so that nothing is repressed, rejected, or left unexperienced. this is the true expression of me, and it is what leads to my fulfillment. i do what makes me feel good. alot of the time jungle music makes me feel so good, but also alot of the time i'd rather just hear some sexy house, or hardcore. but hey, let's think outside the electronic box and maybe listen to some indigo girls, or marilyn manson, or even some spoken word. and if anyone criticizes one of my sides that they don't deem as *cool* or true to the *scene* or some shit, then i know that they aren't happy, because they aren't able to realize this for themselves, and appreciate that we are all made up of so many things, and possibly relate. the aspects of my life, my styles, the different likes, dislikes, scenes, and fads that i go through in life is not what makes me. the pattern, rate and level at which i immerse into them is what makes me.

(ps, didn't realize this post was so long, hardcore kudos to greenwire as well!)

haha that was a long heated response to an off handed joke of a remark

[crookedking]

yeah i was just buggin ya.

but i hear you.

[Global]

First off I'd like to give props to Greenwire, Sammy and Astrofemme for thier comments so far. I think my point will be best illistrated by the fact that if I were to label myself a junglist I would have to include labels for all the other cultures and types of music that I take into my heart. I you wear going to call me a junglist I would insist that you call me a hippie skater hommie rocker junglist raggamuffin who enjoys a good cup of tea and some and some jazz every now and again.

So in answer to the question what is a junglist......well either someone who is very ignorant to every other culture and type of music on the planet or someone who truly belives that jungle is the be all and end all of music and that it can no longer evolve any further.

P.S. Ryan you're not a junglist.....it may be a part of who you are but I know you and you're not that 1 dimensional.
Don't put yourself in boxes like that

PEACE

[miss.myra]

Ravers are ravers, they all just happen to like to bop to different BPMs.

agreed with Global, putting yourself in a category is extremely one dimensonal..it's just like putting yourself in a clique in highschool, but on a slightly larger scale.

nuh, i wasn't offended, or in defensive mode. (sometimes things can come across the wrong way when there's no hand gestures or voice fluxes).
i've just been battling some serious stereotyping in another community and have alot to say on the topic right now. didn't mean to seem standoffish.

[jeevds]

don't really get why this is a big issue, but man, greenwire, you made so much sence.
i don't do jib either and don't have camo pants, (thought they look dope) but i have grown to love jungle and love dancing to jungle. it's a type of music, so if you feel it, and love it, call yourself a junglist. Nobody can disagree with you, because it's YOU and make your own definition of what it is.
atleast that's what i think........and i think i am a junglist

[JoNeSie]

^^^ werd to that

whenever people make a long response i think that they are offended or being offensive.

[cinist]

my principle in grade nine told me "don't put people into cereal boxes" right b4 he kicked me out of skool ruining my life forever.....
so dont put people in too little boxes, put them in big boxes i guess?

[SEAN!]

junglist are usually underaged idiots or older people who act like underaged idiots....they think that by acting tough, dressing like a slob, and smoking meth makes them cool....basicly imagine the wiggers at your old highschool and put them in the context of a rave.


a junglist is rarely educated about jungle music and tend to gravitate towards the lowest denominator in terms of dj talent and production.

[specialkonrd]

dude
poorly dressed ravers still look better then poorly dressed wiggers.

/me puts on a jersey
quick! someone throw me a football! and a beer!

there are well dressed wiggers?

and for the record, a junglist is someone who loves jungle music. how they're dressed doesn't mean shit, period.

the people who go on about wannabe this and insta-junglist that are almost always people who care more about clothes and scenewhoring than music. in the words of my redneck friends: fuck 'em.

[Partychic]

Mad Props to Greenwire! That's all I got to say! hehehe

P.S - I almost always wear camo, and listen to jungle. I just do that, cause I like it. I love the music, and I think camo looks good on me. So what does this make me?
LOL...?

someone should explain this to me, because i just dont get it.
You put on a pair of camo pants and start listening to jungle, and you're labeled an "insta-junglist" or a wannabe junglist or some shit like that.

what exactly is the criteria to be a "real" junglist?

who cares?
