Isn't that Drumstep? If not, I'd love some examples because that sounds very much up my alley.

> Why does Pendulum (a band) get a node on here? There is no such genre as Pendulum.

The guide actually explains that if you click on the dot:

"Pendulum is not the name of this genre. It's technically called Nu Jumpup or Nu Skool Jumpup but I call it Pendulum because Pendulum is more than just an artist or a genre.

It is an event.

It is one of those events that is so monumental that when people talk about history, they unconsciously draw a line between stuff that happened before the event and stuff that happened after (ie: "we are living in a post X world", where X is something earth-shattering like the atomic bomb or 9/11). We are witness to one of these life-changing events in Drum n Bass. Welcome to the Pendulum Age."
