Breakcore thread

Since I'm still on a Renoise bender I went looking for good, fun breakcore and couldn't really find any.

Anyone have suggestions?

Here's something along the lines of what I'm looking for:

Most of that is quite 2007, indeed. Somehow managed to miss drumcorps, though, so thanks

Ik love breakcore but i just do notttt get the appeal of people like Bong ra or drumcorps. They are to me every bad element of the genre portrayed as music artists

Breakcore for me is represented best by very few artists. 

V Snares

Spongebob Squarewave

Ruby My Dear

Stazma

(may be a few others)

Hitori Tori is the shizz.

Also, supremely nice dude who took me to an excellent Japanese restaurant and let me crash at his apartment.  Guy is a master of the beat fuckery.

My all time favourite breakcore ep

Breakcore is just a trend that really came and died out fast. 

The really most amazing artist that only released some few albums was Xanopticon

What the fuck are you on about? 

"Hey, you can't DJ, you have long hair!"

He's right, they are peak cringe of a genre that is already p cringe

Also do you think, on a forum that is basically mainly about aphex twin, a man who has famously had long disgusting greasy ginger hair since 1991, that the problem is their hair?

FYI... real breakcore is so 1998-2004

Wasn't talking about their hair of course, even though dreadlocks on white people is one of the most horrific things I've ever seen. What I meant was they seem to have embodied every factor of what could make the genre cringy.  From the terribly edgy death/ sex aesthetic in the track titles to the overall sound of the music. Literally the first thing i see when I look up bong-ra for example is the track 'sp66d d6mon (666mph mix)' I'm sorry but i just cant take that seriously. Also i feel like the overall quality of their music is pretty low compared to other breakcore artists so the tracks themselves don't make up for it either.

you're into the wrong genre then, I'm afraid

i generally do not enjoy this kind of stuff but this EP is fucking killer

First of all, thanks, all, for the recommendations so far. Lots to check out.

Second of all,

I suspect that, like a lot of similarly themed cringy metal material, this isn’t *meant* to be taken seriously. It’s a joke. Whether you think it’s funny is another matter entirely but in my experience these references to gore and violence are made the same way as those overdriven gabba kicks: tongue firmly planted in cheek.

It’s not my sense of humor either, although I’ll admit to finding a “666mph mix” of a track called “speed demon” a tiny, tiny bit amusing.

Of course, genre pastiche, diversity and not giving a fuck about anything is basically a breakcore philosophy. 

And this guy wants to treat breakcore seriously? LOL what a fucking noob.

What need is there for breakcore beyond Venetian Snares? He has covered all relevant breakcore styles and is better than all other breakcore makers combined. Xanopticon is alright too, I guess, but haven't listened in a long while

How is taking breakcore seriously different from taking IDM seriously? IDM is basically a gayer less self-ironic version of breakcore, at least I always thought of it that way.

Back on topic, this is another great album from the Peace/off label courtesy of Rotator

See, that’s the thing. Occasionally I try to listen to him and every time I find him insufferable. Uncommonly for a breakcore artist he takes himself way, way too seriously.

His singing sucks, lol. But his older releases are great and a lot of fun. I have no way of knowing how seriously he takes himself but he does have a lot of very corny moments, I give you that. I kinda stopped following him at some point because he sang too much. Breakcore + singing is the most tasteless thing ever, which I guess is the point, I still hate it

His drum breaks are dope, though, and his music constantly entertaining.

I perceive other breakcore as a shittier version of Venetian Snares.
