I love breakcore

Random bollocks, geek chic, highbrow debate, pretentious tosh. You'll find it all on a good day.

Where else would you get the Coronation Street theme and Polystyrene together? Inspired!
Since July 20 1969, only eleven men have followed in Neil Armstrongs footsteps on the moon. Eleven. in nearly forty years. Pathetic. I mean, it's not rocket science is it?

Yup, mine too. It's brilliant. Perfect balance of amazing tunes and a bit of silliness here and there... it was my first step into Breakcore!

go to http://www.myspace.com/devnull and listen to track 2 "Big Boring Bass".

Part of the breakcore thing is creating a wall of noise. When this is done well it's not a random mess, just very dense. I think of it as jungle taken to a logical extreme where it runs into industrial, metal and almost any other genre that producers feel like twisting it into (whith varying degrees of success).
I would argue that even a lot of the dross and sillyness that get's put out contributes to the scene, ANYONE can get involved on some level, there's less feeling of an exclusive producion elite than in many genres.
Breakcore is a pretty broad church, the punk ethos applied to dance music and blanket statements like "BREAKCORE IS SHIT!" seem a little closed minded.
It is though, isn't it?

Could someone who really likes breakcore listen to this and tell me if they think it's pretty good?

After listening to Rotator a lot recently, I have a theory that metal and breakcore can be easily and seamlessly mixed. I'm gonna try it soon.

What do you mean theory? Plenty of people have done the metal/breakcore thang & it works VERY well! So there is much proof it's a good thing.
I have managed to corrupt lots of metalheads into loving breakcore innit :D

Why don't you check out artists like drumcorps, DJ Floorclearer, Ladyscraper, Sicktronik etc? Plus prob 100's of not well known people too :?

haven't checked which of these links work, bit hit and miss on this site but there are some cracking sets. You should try some searches if you haven't been there before :biggrin: . Just searched for dev/null on there (bit of an obsession for me atm as you may have gathered) but no luck :(

Baldmosher - Drumcorps is exactly what you're after - it's Aaron Spectre meets Converge/Pig Destroyer/etc etc. Check out his album Grist or http://www.myspace.com/drumc0rps

Safetynice! :fear:

In fact, didn't he play a load of this stuff during his set at the Weekender?

Ahhhhhh yeah but my main issue with HxC is that it's mostly fucking shit. I'd not usually consider playing let alone mixing HxC. Just listening to Drumcorps' MySpace is making me fed up! Very entertaining to see Pig Destroyer live but I'd never listen to it usually.

I feel the need to throw some blastbeat metal into the equation.
