i dont like house or breakz.....i find them slow and weak sounding.but ive only been in the scene for a few years so maybe that will change down the road and ill be all about the dnb disco house and breakz.

breaks rool, house rocks, breaks own, trance is tollerable.

:c-tard:

If yuu like house check out Dj Hyper - Bedrock Breaks 2 Fractured. It's progressive breaks and has a real housy feel to it.

In terms of dancing Florida & Funky breaks is where its at. Nu Skool Breaks is darker, more for listening. If you wanyt some sets check out Mc Hammered's ftp site, I've u/led a lot of different styles of break.

i think i'm gonna get a t-shirt made that just has a drawing of the 33/45 buttons on a tech with the LED in the 45 button lit up. simple, awesome. or if you remember Street Sharks, it's jawsome.

yeah ya know..uk breaks....they call it garage.

UK breaks is actually the kind of stuff krafty kuts or stanton warriors puts out - as opposed to calling it funky breaks and avoid confusion with the stuff that florida influenced.

what they call garage in the UK, we call 2-step (artful dodger, so solid crew, ruff ryders, etc)

for me personally nu skool is where its at....and i saw you grooving to some nu skool beats @ IMF timmy!

[LDUB]

nu skool breakbeats -- waaaaaaaaaa waaa waaa waaa

[*Geminiz*]

I love breaks!!

All kinds depending on my mood, but mostly new school, funky, or progressive with crazy basslines! Speed Garage Breaks are the best :c-tard:

[-DLO_604-]

well anybody got some good stuff to dl? i'm new to breaks

[C@dEnCe]

i agree there are way more boring breaks than good ones I like hard florida breaks but there few and far between , and latley im just getting pickier Im ready to toss 3/4 of my break records. latley if really been feelin' hard trance and NRG. Musics just gotta be hype or it sucks

Ben what do you meen ???

[E_Ferreira]

The only thing that saves house is that there's so many great house producer's out there. the same cant be said for breaks.

What are you TALKING about????

Go to the links page on NUBREAKS and have a look at some of the artists and websites listed. There's more than enough talent there to blow any other genre off the map.

House has been and will always be huge because it's simple and really easy to dance to, therefore being more accessible on a global scale. However, underneath everything, breaks has always been a force to be reckoned with. It surfaces every once in a while and becomes really popular (i.e. the Big Beat boom which spurred guys like the Chemical Brothers and Fatboy Slim to superstar status), and goes underground again, but it will never go away.

That's just the way I like it anyway. You don't get as much ego or attitude in the breaks scene like you do in the house scenes. It attracts a more "hidden" kind of crowd and it feels like it's something that belongs more to you and some of your closest friends than a giant, faceless demographic.

(apologies for the rant...*whew!* Where did that come from?)

The break has more energy then a 4x4 beat.

that's very subjective.

I find the opposite to be true for myself.

nu skool breaks mixed with progressive house is definately where it's at unless you're a speed junkie who can't handle any music that's under 145bpms, in which case you're a geek anyways and don't deserve to listen to well produced music such as Hybrid's breaks or James Holden's house
as for breaks being boring, if you're comparing Adam Freeland as your source for what breaks should sound like then you're bound to be dissapointed because even I get bored of Adam Freeland's crappy repetative breaks
try different artists out from different styles, like DJ Stew if you like funky stuff, Si Beggs if you like crazy basslines, Atomic Hooligan or Digital Pimp if you like dark sounding shit, BT or Hybrid if you like really well produced symphonic sounding breaks, DJ Hyper if you like breaks that sound remarkably like hardhouse, or if you're into Florida breaks try Huda Hudia or DJ Icey or Tony Faline
there's a lot more artists out there, but those ones ought to give you a good impression of what good breaks can sound like!
now no more talk about breaks being boring or heads start getting bashed with a shovel :P

[C@dEnCe]

huda sux so does icey(most of, all most all the time) and faline??? i dont know? but if thats what people think of when they hear about florida breaks no wonder everyone hates em'

[C@dEnCe]

DJ Hyper if you like breaks that sound remarkably like hardhouse, ]

Hyper? hardhouse? not even close and whats wrong with tracks over 145 thats a pretty bold statment . you must be forgettin' about DNB!!
