WHO CARES ABOUT BREAKS ANYMORE??

[frenzie]

Dan brought up a good point on Waxing Deep the other week - Does anyone care about Breakbeats anymore?? Personally I love a good breakbeat - and I love hearing DJs mix the up in true oldschool style - I love finding records that have been sampled by people - and f#ck it, I will even buy records just because the breakbeat is killer. One of my alltime favs would have to be Jimmy Simth 'I'm Gonna Love You A Little Bit More Babe'.. I don't care how common it might be (certainly not in my neck of the woods), but ever since I heard that getting played years back I just can't get enough of those drums before the singers come in..to break or not to break - discuss..

 

[dCastillo]

I care.

 

[Kinetic]

me too

 

[day]

I care.

 

[jaymack]

I care.

especially if the rest of the song is good!!

 

[HairyBelafonte]

I like breaks.

having said that, I like them alot more if the rest of the song is listenable. I quit buyin records just for breaks a few years ago, unless its reeeeaal hard or cheep. I'd rather have a jam I can play out w/ no break than some 4bar rock terd. course, theres nothin wrong w/ a dope song with a nice tasty break somewhere in it.

I'm not really flipping out over open drum breaks anymore unless they are some

type shit. I'm always looking for the ill loop even if the rest of the song is on some doo-doo, but I obviously prefer the whole track to be banging.

[street_muzik]

I love finding good breaks. A break is a tool in a song that gives focus and builds suspense.

Disscussing sample sources on Soul Strut? Stop snitchin'. Creating lists compiled from the internet and books, nah. The magic is finding that shit on your own and hoping no one else has it. Talking about music and records is cool. Dropping hints is alright.

 

[DJ_Enki]

I lurve the breaks.

 

[soulmarcosa]

I vote for the breaks, and will still continue to point at the turntable and yell "The Breaks! The Breaks!" when they are played.
