| Welcome to NuSkoolBreaks.co.uk |
NuSkoolBreaks.co.uk was started in 1999 to bring together fans of breaks - an eclectic music genre which mixes together all the best elements of underground dance and produces something fresh. The name "Nu Skool Breaks" was first used by Rennie Pilgrem on 2 EPs in 1998, and quickly became the collective term used to describe music in its style, although over the years its been shortened to just "breaks".
Since 2001 the scene has grown exponentially - from backrooms to main rooms and into festivals - on a global scale. Sub-genres and off-shoots have been created, but they all still come under the genre of breaks - and this is the place to hear and talk about all of them.
We are now the largest space for breaks on the Web - our community is second to none, with friendships, businesses, partnerships, labels, artist collaborations and more all being formed through this website. Why not get involved in our community right away by signing up to the forum and introducing yourself? Or just have a browse!
Are you keen to get involved? We run this website, NSB Radio and host plenty of events across the UK - so we are always looking for staff. If you wanna help out, check out what we need. |
