One of the greatest tunes of its era!

Back in the day, hip hop DJs only cared about the break on a record - the rest of the song was completely irrelevant. When sampling came in, hip hop producers used most of the old school breaks, and many of them come from tracks where the rest of the track is dire.

Possibly the most famous example: Billy Squier - The Big Beat

Once you get beyond the 1st 4 bars and a bit, it's only of interest to old school heavy metal fans. But that intro has been sampled countless times. Even recently there was a big hit using it - I think it was by Dizzy Rascal. My favourite version is by UTFO:

Here's another tune that has a killer break, but the rest is, personally, of no interest to me: Billy Joel - Stiletto

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niVLasaDPAQ

I have breaks in my collection from the likes of Cliff Richard, Kenny Rogers, Jefferson Starship . . . I don't know if they've all been sampled, but they're all heavy breaks.

This is ace, first brought to my attention by a B-boy (or what ever those kids in Trucker hats and saggy arsed jeans call themselfs) when I played the Marion Black classic in a club.

My personal favourite Hip Hop album in full.

I think Hip Hop was the first genre of music I ever loved. Maybe 5 or 6 listening to De La Soul, NWA and Cypress Hill in my Dads car. LOL. Loved it from the jump, straight up OG homie. Aight.

That's debatable. It was used in hip hop, but a lot more in d&b, so it depends on how highly you regard d&b. It is certainly one of the most sampled tunes and most important breaks ever, but the most important? Imo: no way. Take Me to the Mardi Gras, Funky Drummer, Funky President and Apache are more significant. Without hip hop, d&b wouldn't have even come into existence.

12BarBlues · 2013-01-26 10:09:15

I didn't name the video and I agree it's not the most important. Jungle evolved from the hardcore techno scene in the uk, I don't think you can credit hip hop with it's existence.

Drum Thunder !!! · 2013-01-26 11:13:13

Well I think it is the most important break in terms of influence, as it was the only one that created it's own genre, which was Jungle of course, which is one of my favourite types of music especially what was made between 94' and 95', and all the reggae and ragga that was sampled. I'd moved on to Trip Hop and scratch dj'in by 96 when I bought Dj Shadows Midnight in a Perfect World, and Q-berts, Camel Bobsled Race. From there I got into the music that was being sampled, like Axlerod, and then further back and back.

But if you asked me my fav break, it's this one from sound experience used on many tracks including Coldcut's Paid in Full remix, and many other tracks.

the sample starts at 53secs

Drum Thunder !!! · 2013-01-26 12:09:07

Another groove i really like that got lifted was Regiment by Eno and Bryne

Stereo Mc's nicked it for What Is Soul, which has some rubbish rap on it, but the instrumental undoubtedly kick ass.

Lol you used to post there didn't you? I'm not saying that it exclusively evolved from that scene, but that is a very big part of it's origin.
