Oh, and J' & Mystery are both wrong (or both right?). There are plenty of trance tracks that use breakbeats but aren't a part of the breaks family. L.S.G. - Get Out & Eat Static - Xenomorph are two examples right off the top of my head, plus what of all the trance tracks that have breakbeats in them in addition to four-to-the-floor (like Netherworld)? However, there are enough varieties of breakbeat music styles that have spawned from the original B-Boy movement to warrent its own major family independant from the other ones.
(PS: my vote goes to Airwave ) |
i think they are talking about the beats in the majority of the track, not a track that has some breaks in the breakdown. i dont remember exactly how netherworld is, neither have i heard those other two songs, but lets say for example, push - strange world 2000, it has breaks on the breakdown but is 4x4 trance track, just having a short breakbeat section in it. pb and j - the way, is completely opposite, it is all breaks and has a short part in it that is 4x4 beat, but it is still breakbeat. in my opinion, the way the kick drum is structured defines what it is. if it doesnt go
x--- x--- x--- x--- with x being the kick, then i dont think its trance or 4x4 whatever you want to call it. breaks for example can go
x--- --x- --x- --x- or
x-x- ---x --x- --x- or
x--- ---- x-x- --x-
and many other ways
