Covering the History of BreakBeat Music
Jungle-Breaks-Grime-Oldsk

Breaking Beats, a very very simple, self-explanatory project covering the finest bass-driven music. Our events have a strict policy of breakbeats all night, however that will constantly range between; Jungle, Breaks, Oldskool Garage, 2 Step, Bassline & More. Firstly, A quick history lesson for all of you ;)

Breakbeats: The distinct percussive rhythm from which this genre takes its name, usually c

haracterized by the use of a non-straightened 4/4 drum pattern (as opposed to the steady beat of house, techno and trance). These rhythms may be characterized by their intensive use of syncopation and polyrhythms. As a musical device, breakbeats have been known and used for almost a hundred years, but the name and modern meaning of the term traces its origins to the rise of hiphop in the United States in the 1970s. The eponymous electronic music genre is widely regarded as a derivative of the United Kingdom's early rave music, where breakbeats were added to the music to form what became known as breakbeat hardcore. However, breakbeats had been used by American hiphop DJs and turntablists in instrumental sets well before the advent of rave in the UK, and it could be argued that the two scenes developed in parallel. Today, breakbeat lives on in the form of strong regional scenes in the US and UK. Breakbeats are frequently used in the production of such diverse music genres as hiphop, jungle or drum and bass, hardcore, UK garage (2-step, and dubstep) and even pop and rock. That is what we do, we endeavor to make your booty shake to everything that doesn't have a 4-to-the-floor beat, covering the whole history of the Breakbeat era, right from the late 1980's up to the present day!
