I'm a dummy and I know there is a difference between breakbeat and breakcore but can someone give me a primer? As far as I can tell, breakcore is just a bit more abrasive. Also what are good breakbeat artists to check out?
I guess the simplest way to think about it is that if stuff like Jungle & DnB are Punk Rock, then Breakcore is Hardcore Punk Rock. So yeah, more abrasive, more extreme, more chaotic & experimental, faster tempos, etc.
Breakbeat is a fairly context dependent term when it's being used to describe musical genres tbh. It can be used as an umbrella term for any type of music that uses sampled drum breaks. I.e. Hip-Hop, Jungle, DnB, Breakcore, Big Beat, etc. are all Breakbeat genres. However, it can also be used to describe a specific sub-section of breakbeat music, usually stuff that's more on the downtempo & midtempo side of the spectrum that doesn't neatly fit into other genres.
Not that familiar artists who make generic Breakbeat, but I think The Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy were/are both big artists for that type of music. You could also check out The Glitch Mob's latest album Ctrl Alt Reality, which is somewhere in between generic Breakbeat and Breakbeat Hardcore.
The punk/hardcore comparison actually helped since I've been into both genres lol.
Previously my only real exposure to breakcore/jungle was when it was sampled into gabber/hardcore techno and I know I dug the drums a lot. I am a bit familiar with Th Chemical Brothers and def listened to The Prodigy. I spent a bit of time listening to The Glitch Mod but I think that was based on me seeking out glitch-hop stuff. I'm gonna look more into breakcore now because I def liked a lot of what was in the video, granted I skimmed it lol.
