frisky feat. vee - i like the way [plump dj's vocal mix] .
gouryella - walhalla [hybrid echoplex mix] . HOT!!
bt - smartbomb [plump dj's vocal mix] .

dont know much about florida breaks...sorry.

oooooooo breakbeat!!!!
breakbeatz quality~! hehe.. well Hybrid are probably my fav act ... lol
and yea.. just list ANY hybrid track.. and there ya go..

i think
Rabbit in the Moon is considered to be Miami breakbeat.. but i ain't too sure..

then ya got the dispute between breakbeat / dnb / jungle.. and the classification of each genre..
but i guess some breakbeat includes

DJ Icey (as aforementioned)
tracks such as Bass Electrix, The One, Top Rock, Sanctuary, Blue Chips, etc etc..

Stanton Warriors?
JDS : Destiny Calls, Nine Ways
Adam Freeland
Deejay Punk-roc
some BT stuff: Smartbomb, Fibonacci Sequence...
Freestylers
Koma & Bones (who did a remix for the classic God Within by Scott Hardkiss)
Rennie Pilgrim (renaissance guru)
General Midi (quality)
some Way Out West stuff is breakbeaty.. : Activity, Redemption, Ajare.....
Animated - Wired (on deviant mate.. hehe if ya like Ashtrax, i think u will like this one)


hmmmmmmmm thats all i can think of right now


BUT.. hybrid will alwayz rule nuskool breakz!!

Have you guys heard Hybrid Galaxy mix? That's really nice compilation of jazzy breaks.
And, tu_face, I would also recommend you to listen to Adam Freeland MOS session. That's a kick ass set.

Cheers for the tips doodz ive always considered nick warren to be prog only.. ive found a few way out west remixes n stuff which is quality breaks... madness, but my fave one i found so far is sorta break/trance... Ultraviolet - Heaven (Way Out West Mix).. fuckin quality

As i said i aint noe expert on BB, so err i guess the stuff i like is kinda nu skool stuff with trancy elements in it i like the general midi/ashtrax stuff best

Cheerz again

I am also a big fan of pretty much any type of electronic music starting from trance to breakbeats,drum'n'bass and ofcourse one of the breakbeat roots are The Prodigy!
Opps sorry back to the topic, I'd recommend to you anything by Plump DJ's (they float around the UK a lot doing gigz right now) and I personally think that they produce the best break beat tunez nowadays!
I uploaded one of there best songs to a locker please let me know what u thought.
