I think more dancehall reggae, specifically late 80s/early 90s "digital dancehall". Try checking the basslines on stuff like supa cat's album "don dada" [1] and tell me it's not pretty similar to early jungle you hear in artists from the jamaican diaspora such as dillinja [2]. Jungle came out of what was called hardcore in the early 90s and both of those genres are having quite a fun revival lately. People are going to the lengths of busting out old amigas to make this on and play live even. Oh there's a really good BBC documentary about this, I remember me and some friends watched it years ago and we were laughing about how they made dillinja dress like a total dork ass for the telly, at that point he was still living with his parents apparently haha. Cool shots of his DAW setup with an Atari ST running what looks like early cubase [3] [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bEgAVxtoHI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bEgAVxtoHI [2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7sDtA_zFWA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7sDtA_zFWA [3] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQyCyTo3mt4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQyCyTo3mt4
