Vitamin E LIVE

 

Carmen - For the record, this is Carmen - interviewing Producer/DJ VITAMIN E for NuBreaks Radio!

Carmen - So, tell me.. how did you come to the name VITAMIN E?

VITAMIN E - a friend of mine about 6 years ago had said the music that i create and the mixes that i did gave her energy and soothed her heart like
vitamin e, at the time i was going by a different name, and was having copyright issues with another artist, so decided to go with vitamin e and it
just stuck

Carmen - Soothing a persons heart and soul is something that a lot of producers wish to accomplish with their tunes. Is there a particular artist that
has done exactly that for you more so than anyone else?

VITAMIN E - Absolutely, over the years that i have been djing, I would say that I am huge fan of all artists and producers that have the same love for
music that i do, off the top of my head, I am a huge fan of Devine and Emily play, along with Ghosts in the Machine, Dynamix II, Kraftwerk,
DJ Magic Mike, and so many more.

Carmen - I can honestly say that every one of those artists are a favorite of mine as well

VITAMIN E - I am almost positive after doing this for 16 years, I bet i could be here for a lifetime naming all the artists i have come to love.

breaks will eat itself

 

New debut single from Breaks Will Eat Itself 'Resistance' on en:vision recordings (including a storming Backdraft remix) is available on Beatport now!!!

Here's what people have been saying about it:

"This is Big Room production that sounds as if it would be as
at home on CSI as in a club (which is no bad thing)" 
Rennie Pilgrim

"Loving the Original! Great hook with a beat that will shake the floor!" -Scott (the Crystal Method)

"A shear dance floor destroyer!!" Future Funk Squad

"Love it, tough crossover sound. Listen to this smashing a stolen tank
through some post-apocalyptic city ruins. Tank Girl's lost soundtrack,
awesome!"
 - Dave (Hex The Dex)

"loving the tougher edge to liz's tunes... proper.The Original is tight,, really feeling this.. will be dropping it this weekend for sure.
ooh the backdraft remix is filth... love it...full club/radio support on these"
 - Benny (Ben & Lex)

"good darker stuff from Liz! Very
atmospheric with a haunting edge. Backdraft's rework is similarly
creepy but adding a touch of the epic"
 - Kickflip

"yes orig is wicked unusual and good to see something different i say
and Backdraft deliver the scary northern Moss side breaks 
no one does it like Backdraft"
 - SOTO

What is Breakbeat?

Breakbeat

Breakbeat (sometimes breakbeats or breaks) is a term used to describe a collection of sub-genres of electronic music, usually characterized by the use of a non-straightened 4/4 drum pattern (as opposed to the steady beat of house or trance). These rhythms may be characterised by their intensive use of syncopation and polyrhythms.

History

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, hip-hop DJs (starting with Kool DJ Herc) began using several breaks (the part of a funk or jazz song in which the music "breaks" to let the rhythm section play unaccompanied) in a row to use as the rhythmic basis for hip-hop songs. Kool DJ Herc's breakbeat style was to play the same record on two turntables and play the break repeatedly by alternating between the two records (letting one play while spinning the second record back to the beginning of the break). This style was copied and improved upon by early hip hop DJs Afrika Bambaataa and Grand Wizard Theodore.This style was extremely popular in clubs and dance halls because the extended breakbeat was the perfect backdrop for breakdancers to show their skills.

In recent times, the term breakbeat has become synonymous with the many genres of breaks music which have become popular within the global dance music scene, including big beat, nu skool breaks and progressive breaks. DJs from a variety of genres, including house and techno, work breaks tracks into their sets. This may occur because the tempo of breaks tracks (ranging from 110 to 150 beats per minute) means they can be readily mixed with these genres, whereas the comparatively fast speed of jungle and drum and bass (160-180 bpm) may have restricted the utility of these subgenres to DJs playing slower-tempo music. Some artists well known for breakbeat include The Freestylers, NAPT, Dj Loopy, Pendulum, Soul Of Man, Dj deekline and wizard, Ben & Lex, The Breakfastaz, Ctrl Z, Stanton Warriors, Dj Icey, Freq Nasty and Plump DJ's.

Breakbeats are used in many hip hop, rap, jungle, and hardcore songs, and can also be heard in other music, from popular music to background music in car and jean commercials on the radio or TV.
