The General forum is designed for the discussion of breaks by users - debate, appreciation, reviews, videos, etc. ALL MUSIC RELEASE INFO (including videos from labels) should be posted in our MUSIC forum. Posts not in the right forum will be deleted, moved or the poster banned.
if people don't like 95% of the current breaks i don't understand what they are doing in a breaks forum. Wouldn't it be better to go on forums that promote the music they like? (there's probably none if the only music they ever liked was breaks in 2005). Life is to short to waste time with what you don't like.
Breaks have evolved, probably into something that the old school guys don't like, that's fine, but i don't think the trolling will bring the 2005 back. That type of breaks belongs to the past, it's about time some people just move on and leave the current breaks alone. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it is not good, and just because you don't understand it, it doesn't mean it makes no sense.
whining people are a pain in the ass. Criticism is welcomed as long as it's constructive. Insults and piss taking are off putting and send people away.
This forum is at serious risk of becoming the "old school breaks whining club"
That said, i find some of nik_'s posts hilarious because i don't take them seriously. Other trolls are just nik_ wannabees but without sense of humor.
Just my humble opinion
your newest track is ... labelled breakbeat but its electro trance house
its not breaks - im sure its a very good electrotrancehouse song and you are no doubt a capable producer but you cant expect to come here and try to peddle this as breaks lol. i will tell you why - its missing some defining elements that make it breaks - let alone decent music of any conceivable sub genre in.
* no drums - massive kick and snare. doesn't even have the 'kick smash kick kick smash' pattern only the 'kick smash kick smash' * no percussion, only straight hats * psytrance preset melody aka psytrance * super smashed sounds - everything is up front - no restraint thought or placement with the any sounds sound - only consideration is to make a wall of noise and a waveform like a square. * that awful grinding 'bass noise' * annoying and relentless 'its time for a break' sample - really lol where did you get that and what made you think you would get away with putting it in? * the feeling its a load of the worst bits of electronic music put in one place.
the argument that 'just because you like it doesn't mean its not good' argument is a bad one and falls flat when you consider that even outside of this forum - where it is supposedly meant to be at home - everyone hates it / doesn't want to know about it / wont buy it / its not even allowed to go on vinyl or in proper digital stores...there is no demand for it or interest in it. it has no following and never will.
its cool you are making something you like and your group of mates with mp3 blogs can share this music but its not to the taste of this specific group on this little internet forum or as demonstrated by sales, media, online/print reviews n investigations, bookings, real world output, cultural connection to a time and place or overall aesthetic - THE ENTIRE WORLD BASICALLY HATES IT.
I suppose overall if this elctrotrance wasn't presented in such an aggressive fashion under the misguided assumption that it is a good product and pushed so hard onto an unwilling audience id think the stunningly negative reactions would be far less.
the whole self big upping write ups, shit rip off artwork, top 100 beatport charts are all total bullshit and make your product even shitter than it actually is.
some restraint, self respect and hard work wouldn't go astray IMO.
please stop making this everyone lol
Wow. When i first saw this i felt flattered. I thought "i don't care if he didn't like my track but it's awesome he took the time to listen to it and spend 30 minutes of his life to write about it". But then i read it and i'm like "oh... He didn't really listen to the track, i know it's a shit track but the description doesn't correspond... He only wasted a lot of time to react with rage (masked with attempted sense of humor) at my post where i said i don't take him seriously..."
Come on nik_ we all know you can do better. You're a capable boy. I support you
Thanks for the support shamman do u have a motorbike rally to attend etc? LoL
If it helps you to stop thinking about yourself, yes, I have lots of motorbike rallies to attend to. I'm quite proud of the fact I have an interest outside of trolling nsb tbh. Thanks for the reminderz lol.

Ops that was a bit harsh for a Monday morning sirry honelone-At least it's got people talking about our fave topic - what is breaks?
In reality... You just wanted your little revenge, didn't you? You started preparing this yesterday (you even worned me lol). I imagine you all offended spending the whole sunday at your desk writing drafts and chucking them in the bin, probably with a tear in your eye. You gave it your best. Now, relax, we could even be best friends in real life. It's not your fault, it's internet's fault. It just takes the worst of all of us and makes us sound like bitter bitches even if we're not. I'm sure you're a lovely guy after all, you probably just need a lady to sugar you up a little
