A Celebration of Breakbeat History

Breakbeat culture has shaped generations of music, from the early days of Hip Hop block parties to modern electronic production. Legendary drummers including Clyde Stubblefield, David Garibaldi, Zigaboo Modeliste and countless others created grooves that became the foundation of sample culture.

The influence of legendary breaks such as "Amen, Brother" by The Winstons and the unmistakable groove of James Brown's "Funky Drummer" can still be heard across Hip Hop, Jungle, Drum & Bass, Breakbeat and electronic music today. These moments in drum history inspired generations of producers, DJs and beatmakers to transform recorded performances into entirely new musical worlds.

The Breakbeat Bible pays tribute to this legacy while giving modern producers the tools to create the next generation of iconic rhythms.
