what is the point of trying to make 'funny' garage

what is the point of neo-garage producers who, working from the realms of completely seperate scenes that traditionally look down on uk garage in particular, as well as most popular and 'street' music, try and incorporate the core aspects of garage (to my mind, in this order: 'skippy'/bumpin drum programming, big sub/bass lines, vocals) with the aspects of the genre in which they work, to try and create something new? i know we talked a bit about this in a thread about squarepushers 'my red hot car' but it didnt seem to get too far. i ask cos i recently bought a new manitoba 12" which seems more successful in, what i suppose, is its task than their last album or ep which seemed honurable but as though he didnt really understand how garage producers made the tracks so damn.....funky. the new one stops trying to be so abstract, although it seems sonically very messy which is somewhat distracting, but has lots of wicked cut up/sequenced vocals cf sunship remix of flowers. in truth the only other people i can think of trying to do this sort of thing is landslide who seem to operate within that nu-jazz thing: they are on hospital and just sit around remixing bugz inthe attic (aaaaaaaghgggghhh west london!), and similarly fail to pull it off tho for different reasons. in a way the best track to try and abuse garage by nicking the best bits and doing funny things to it is fridges 'kinoshita terasaka'. in fact its kieron hebdons (along with gareths) influence - he would always slip in a few 2step tunes when we saw him dj - that got me into garage in a way. theres something kinda pastoral about it but still pretty funky, although to put it in a set with other bona fide garage tunes, it needs the bass pumping up a bit, and the drums are really low down in the mix (maybe you can do this with eqs on a mixer)....

so, anyone aside from me notice this phenomenon? any comments? will it get anywhere?

as a closing note, like i said before, all the attempts to try and recreate garage in a different form have failed cos it seems that these people dont really know how to make a garage tune. it is this feelinjg that made me hate 'my red hot car' so much cos there seemed to be this feeling like, "i've made freejazz stylee stuff, so this simplistic pop music cant be hard to make, lets see, its just drum'n'bass but slower isnt it?" which fell on its face cos its so badly made, and a 1000000x less danceable than the er...real thing.

god this is a long post. you can tell its essay time.......
