How about...

Large Tempo
Vast Rhythm
Massive Cadence
Brobdingnagian Palpitation
Extensive Thump
Mountaineous Throb

Just adding "New" in front of something is probably doomed to fail. Remember New Coke? That's right.. nobody does.

I like also demoscene. So "New/ Nu Big Beat" definition will be:

Haujobb - Elements
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZLwhbF3bm0

New Big Beat will be more synthy and softy and more ambientish...
As we will use modern reverbs and VSTis...

No thats folk music my friend...But techno group The Grid in their song Swamp Thing used banjo.
So if you are banjo player. And I see you really like folk music. You can still use it in "New Big Beat"...

thats because genre names are pretty much always a stupid, overly simplistic way of describing music

It depends where you put the limits of new. If the milk I'm about to put in my coffee were 20 years old, then I think I'd need some Nu milk.
