  • The rhythm doesn't sound like breakbeat at all even if I pitch this video down to regular 160bpm.

    Neither does it sound like 220 :o

  • The term breakbeat is used by different groups and changed over the last 15 years or so. They used it when jungle came up in the mid 90's and nowadays it's used for hiphop grooves, a bit confusing I find. The focus in this vid is on D&B grooves, where the term is used as well for broken rhythms. The rhythm is of course 220 Bpm. The tempo of a beat is decided by the quarter notes in a beat (snare is here on 2 and 4), that's how you decide the tempo of a beat or song. Cheers Ydna

  • this is far from 220 and it's far from breakbeat, which runs at about 150 like house music :F

  • Please check my comment above regarding the 220 Bpm.

  • @Jungleritter He's not talking about the Breakbeat genre, he's talking about the term 'breakbeat' in its traditional sense which is a beat, which breaks apart from the regular beat of the song, usually at a faster pace and/or off-beat syncopations.

  • Thanks for clarifying this :-)

  • Yes, but that doesn't make much sense. D&B is usually played around 170 up to 190 with very fast songs. So 220 Bpm is way over the top already, just to showcase how well this technique works.

    Cheers
