Never understood the term 'jump-up'. Is this aimed at the gun finger idiots at the front of a rave who can't skank?
Look in the middle and at the back, where the real heads are. When a tune is dirrrrty, then peeps really do Get Lo
The term is derived from the earlier use of "jump-up" to refer to tracks with often ambient intros which altered their style at the drop, often by breaking into amen breakbeats. This would make the crowd "jump up" and dance. Around 1994 it began to be more exclusively applied to records with hip hop samples and oscillating basslines, such as Suburban Bass artists Dream Team and DJ Hype, and by 1995 more specifically to the style associated with DJ Zinc and Ganja Records.
