Polyrhythms in Jungle?

Someone told me that he liked Jungle, and explained to me that it was because it was "an heavily syncopated poly-rhythmic version of Hip Hop"

I just listened to 50 minutes of Jungle music, and I didn't hear any form of polyrhythm. Can someone show me a concrete example and explain where the polyrhythm is?

Here is the mix I listened to btw.

that's a really inaccurate description

I know but that's how he personally view it as far as he is concerned.

How would you describe it?

most of it is basically just standard hip-hop break-beats repeated with syncopation at a faster BPM. he might be referring to the interplay between the snares of the break beats and the kick drum/bass rhythms that carry the track along.

He's using words he doesn't know the meaning of. Polyrhythms are different time signatures played at the same time on top of each other. If anybody knows of some polyrhythmic jungle though that would be great.

>Polyrhythms are different time signatures played at the same time on top of each other
That's called a poly-meter. A poly-rhythm is the conflict between two rhythms that plays against each others.

Well odd time signatures then because that's what happens typically.

No. The most common polyrhythm in western music is triplets over duples which can happen in any time signature.

I never realized that's considered a conflicting rhythm
