[quote]

check pretty much anything by david axelrod,his breaks are the meanest.
[quote]
The coldcut "peter and the wolf break" hah!

Funky drummer is a good break but ya right James, its been overdone. Kinda like that amen thing heh.
[quote]
The "AMEN" break - where would we be without it in dnb?

I know wrong forum, all the best breaks come from the funk era yeeeah go the James Brown.
[quote]
Overused?! Does this prevent it from being the best ever. So far we have 2 other breaks posted

come on touch, you know this is one of the slowest forums. be patient grasshopper.

I have two ideas why there are so few replies.

1. Some people are too caught up in rhymin, cussin & phat basslines to care about the importance of breaks.

2. Some people dont care to participate in name dropping threads.


I dont know if it qualifies as the best of all time but one of my all time favorites is Quincy Jones - "Summer in the City" combined with Jimi Hendrix - "are you experienced" to create Pharcyde - "Passing me by"

Agumj I'm just a little disappointed in the lack of knowledge being shown here, does anyone remember tha funk?

I mean is it too much to ask?
[quote]

Humpty dance - Digital Underground wikkid bassline grinder
[quote]
haha!

that Humpty Dance bassline used to annoy the fuck out of my flatmate downstairs!
[quote]
Sorry man, I only check biggie once every couple of days, its kinda unrealistic to come back every hour and to have sparked a discussion!

Anyway
a few more favs..

The 'Apache' break (needs no further reference Smile
Samba Soul - Chove Chuva
Skull Snaps - Its a New Day (the break from Poison by the Prodigy)
24 Carat Black - The 24 Carat black


These are all off some compilations I like - "The Breaks". All old school 70s tunes which have been sampled recently, but funky in their own right. I have cds 1 and 2 but I think theres a 3rd. They all good, check em.

[quote]
Oh yeah, that Krush track is "Kemuri"

Wicked tune Smile the last Krush album 'Zen' is fucking good too.

Anyway, thats me for now.
