Funky Breaks

I realized I'm dumbfounded at where to start... I don't even have any tracks on my computer I can give you for examples of what I like, but I know I've enjoyed this stuff out before.
Thanks.

I'm trying to find some breaks that are more kind of jazzy than funky, like jazzanova but a bit more up-tempo but not quite the heavy electronic sounds of plump dj's... any ideas?

It says drum and bass, but there are a lot of slower tracks in there with distinct jazz elements.

haha but seriously were you suggesting that they've done some sets in this style or was that simply a joke?

Cheers, this looks like a pretty famous release will check out some samples.

I'm just naming them because they've helped me find more breaks and funk than anyone.

A whooole lotta Krafty Kuts if you're into the heavier stuff

On youtube as plump dj's mix if you're internested.

edit: oh hai there josip

jazzy type breaks. yeah, well alot of that stuff borders into the big epic mishmash of a genre that is nujazz and/or broken beat. Compost records & Talkin' Loud is a good way to start from.

Hmmmmmm.....breaks....

I still play this all the time, maybe not as funky as you like, but it's a great track none the less.

And this one .

DJ FIXX
DJ Infiniti
DJ ICEY
Baby Anne (but only older stuff, the newer stuff...yuck)

IDK...its been so long since I was surrounded by Breaks-heads up in NC. I don't even remember if these are technically Funky Breaks or just Nuskool.
