I'm surprised that, with all the talk about Drum N Bass on this list this
year, that there's no category
for it. Of course, there are other forums for DnB, but as it is, the type
of DnB that the Acid Jazz list
enjoys is largely ignored (or at least disliked) by "the Jungle
Mainstream". I remember seeing someone's Usenet review of Photek's latest
album, and called it, "Horrible...so muso, it should be considered more
like progressive rock..." Anyway...

I move to add the "150 BPM and above" category.
