 Breakbeat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Breakbeat (or funky breakbeat) may also refer to the music of bands such as Breakestra, who play funk and soul music with an emphasis on the elements that would become popular in hip-hop and later breaks-based music.
In the 1970s, hip-hop DJs (starting with DJ Kool Herc) began using several breaks (the part of a funk and jazz song in which the music breaks to make room for the rhythm section only) in a row to use as the rhythmic basis for hip-hop songs.
For the technique, and the meaning of the term with hip-hop and funk music see break (music).

A break is an instrumental or percussion section or interlude during a song derived from or related to stop-time being a "break" from the main parts of the song or piece.
With hectic breakbeats, Dub Reggae bass and high-pitched vocal samples these tracks seemed in tune with the tradition of Shut Up and Dance-influenced Breakbeat House, but their emphasis on beats and bass was uncharacteristically more aggressive and energetic, which gave the music an artificial, mind-altering quality which SUAD's fast Hip Hop never accomplished.
Like many cutting-edge discoveries in the early history of music, Breakbeat was born on a sweaty dance floor, the one of the dance club Fever.
