Breakbeat

It's funny when people make fun of dance music and my never ending obsession. My come back question is always- "What your favorite bar?" After a few seconds of confused silence (here in PDX) the usual answer is The Tube. I rarely need to be the one to point out that the Tube has been playing dance music five days a week for the last few years.

None the less break beat is a bit of a step for hipsters. Genres are confusing past "techno" and "dirty electro".
If you are going to listen to breakbeat listen to The Stanton Warriors, Krafty Kuts or The Freestylers.
Here is the latter:
A Different Story Vol. 1


Cheesy trance builds, mashups, broken beats, rap vocals and high danceability.
