"A strand emerging within dubstep is a mutant jungle strain within the sound. Needless to say, it's impossible to imagine dubstep without the DNA of jungle: it's prominent in so many ways and places, from Burial's Foul Play influences to Loefah's love of the sound itself. Members of the scene used to DJ jungle, from N Type and Kode9 to Jason (Transition's mighty mastering engineer). In fact the whole 'dark' component that makes dubstep distinct from UK garage has its roots in El-B's twin love of Metalheadz and 2step. Jungle is less an influence on dubstep, more like the foundation on which the whole scene, via garage, was built. But in spite of all that, a re-emphasis on jungle-flavored dubs is emerging within dubstep; songs that use chopped breaks, epic pads, and vocal samples like it was 1994, from producers LD and Cluekid."
