BreakFeast VI – Nu Skool Breaks & Breakbeat

The next installment of our breakbeat sets focusing on tunes with a strong baseline. We start out with some nu skool breaks, then journey through some electro and funk styles as well as some of the classic sounds that dominated the UK hardcore movement.

Thanks for taking the time to listen, we’d love to hear whether you enjoyed it and any tunes which stand out for you.

Cheers, Dan & Ben

Breakfeast V – DnB, Jungle & Nu Skool Breakz

For those of you that love breakbeat with a full-on baseline, this is a live recording of our recent show on londonpirateradio.co.uk.

Starting with Drum and Bass from various different sub genres including both nu and old skool we then slow it slightly into breaks but keep the tempo high and the bass rolling.

This set was a LOT of fun to play – let us know what you think in the comments below.

Old Skool Drum & Bass, Breaks & Progressive House

Here’s our latest set from LondonPirateRadio.co.uk. We start out with some drum & bass classics, then bring in some breaks before heading off into progressive house and some electro.

Not had much time to keep up with sets from everyone else this week, so no recommendations for now. Lots of listening to do…

Old Skool Techno & Breakbeat

Thanks for making your way over to our latest mix session, if you take the time to listen through the set please leave us a comment with what you thought.

This is a recording of our last show on LondonPirateRadio.co.uk which was only two hours – we’ll be back to four hour shows from next week.

The set starts with some old skool house/techno from the early 90s before some lumpy basslines and breakbeat and finishing off with some old UK hardcore.

This week we’ve loved the sounds from Jay (Renascence 001), Peter (Roundtrip: Amsterdam), Ivan (ϖ THE ARSONIST ϖ) and Sista-Matic (Sista-Matic – Old Skool Hardcore Show (92/93) – London Pirate Radio 2/4/2016). If you have a chance take a listen and leave a comment on their shows.

Limitless – Beats from the Underground

Arhh me hearties – here’s last week’s live set on LondonPirateRadio.co.uk which started out with some old skool techno trance before bouncing through some broken beats and off into tech house with some progressive sounds sneaking in here and there.

We really enjoyed putting together this mix as it encompases a lot of different genres and feels like a real rollercoaster of energy & mood throughout the 4 hour journey.

Recommended sets for you to listen to this week come from Marc (Smi043 – Artcore (Drum n Bass) Mix), Paul (The Light Reflected Mix 2016), Sean (DEEPDOM – Soul Sessions #11) and The Snooze on NSB Radio ([099] WallPlugTuna on NSB Radio)

Old Skool Hardcore Breakbeat – londonpirateradio.co.uk

Last week we covered another slot for londonpirateradio.co.uk on Friday evening which felt like the perfect time to dip into our old UK Hardcore and Breakbeat tunes.

This set sets a good pace from the start with plenty of classic tunes and a few jungle and remixes thrown in too.

It’s the first purely old skool mix we’ve released here so we’d love to hear whether you enjoyed it and any tunes which stand out for you. Cheers, Dan & Ben

Breakbeat Classics, Old School Drum & Bass and Hardcore

Time for a bit of fun. This is a classic drum and bass/jungle and old school hardcore set. These are genres from our early 20’s when the rave scene was in full flow here in the UK. Parties were free and the atmosphere and music were the most important elements of the night.

The DJ’s travelled across the country throughout the night to play up to 5 venues in a single night and any promising DJ’s, sometimes as young as 14 or 15 were welcomed into the scene to play sets in front of hundreds of happy music lovers.

Let us know what you think in the comments – and thanks for listening! Dan & Ben.
