Nu skool breaks
So, basically, who here listens to nu skool breaks?
I haven't seen it discussed here so that's why I'm opening this topic.
I've been really digging it in past few months and I've been listening to artists such as Plump DJs, Stanton Warriors, Deekline & Wizard, Elite Force, Evil Nine, Krafty Kuts, Lee Coombs, Dylan Rhymes, Rennie Pilgrem, Koma & Bones, Meat Katie and Hybrid, if he's considered nu skool. Also, I still have yet to check out Aquasky vs. Masterblaster, �berzone, Adam Freeland, Soul Of Man, Freq Nasty and Drumattic Twins.
What are your thoughts?
Thats all Ive been spinning for the past few years. Love that stuff.
Yup, all of those artists you listed I have sets of, they're really good imo. Really fun stuff to listen to.
Breaks is definately the most fun to mix. 
Check out
Bassbin Twins
Cut & Run
.. This label/artist (my fav atm): Pirate Breaks (Rumor has it that Pirate Breaks is Plump Djs)
I see you already had Stanton Warriors, try these if you havent heard..
Stanton Warriors - Pop Ya Cork
Stanton Warriors - Pop Ya Virus
Stanton Warriors - Shake It Up
Coburn - We Interrupt This Programme (Stanton Warriors Remix)

Damn I was hoping for a link.
I used to DJ almost exclusively this kind of music a few years back. For some reason I felt the genre went stale and I started listening to mainly techno. Judging from the artists and the tracks you're talking about it doesn't seem to have changed much in the last few years.
suck
I really like nu skool breaks, but don't know anything about them either. Can anyone recommend some good compilations that I could start with?
florida breaks > nu skool breaks
