Comment:

These days a lot of breaks tunes don't really have breakbeats, which is a shame 'cos it was the drum patterns that got me into it, with the samples sounding like they were lifted from 'live' jazz and soul records, as opposed to the colder, more clinical 4/4 rhythms of house. So here's a (continuous)mix of some of the tunes from 5 years back that really represent this sound.
Oh, and some dodgy electroclash for contrast...

Thanks for the primer on breakbeat. I always have a hard time distinguishing the various dance music styles.

I see nothing "dodgy" here. Just a fine collection of tunes. From the mighty ranting of John Lydon to the distinctive elctro-warblings of the late-lamented Avenue D, this mix is on...
