| 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. |
| Announcement: A Night for Amnesty with the Plump DJs - Friday 13th June |
| Posted: jimmy brayks @ Fri Jun 06, 2008 2:50 pm |
Just received word from the Plumps that they are playing a small intimate gig for Amnesty International this coming Friday 13th June.
Alongside the Plump DJs, catch Jazzie B (soul II soul), Zero 7 (dj set), Loose Cannons and more, up at the Westbury in Kilburn.
Entrance is a mere £5, and all profits from the door and the bar (apparently) are going to chairty - so drink until you Headthrash (did you see what I did there? No. Oh)
Friday 13th June
A Night for Amnesty
Westbury Bar, Kliburn High Road, London NW6 5UA

| Announcement: Fabric Team launch Matter @ O2 Arena |
| Posted: jimmy brayks @ Fri May 23, 2008 1:35 pm |
The people behind Fabric are behind a new club venue at The O2 (formerly Millennium Dome London), and it will open in September. Although "conceived" by Team Fabric, the new venue will have its own identity – it will be called Matter – and will also have more of a focus on live music than the central London venue. It will also differ from the existing venues in The O2 in that it will have its own riverside entry, rather than being entered into via the main O2 shopping mall.
The press release on the new venue says this: "It has been conceived by the team behind longstanding club Fabric London, but this venue is all about the live music experience as well, and will offer unprecedented flexibility coupled with unparalleled, cutting edge sound and vision designed to give guests an unforgettable experience whatever the style of the night being presented".

| Announcement: Splitoop ’Pleasure Machine’ Album Sneak Preview |
| Posted: jimmy brayks @ Thu May 15, 2008 4:57 pm |
Splitloop's new album is now finished and due for release on 14th July 2008. Check out the link below to catch a sneak preview and details on how you can get this album for half price!
Dipping their toes into numerous styles of electronic music has certainly paid off for the guys. 'Pleasure Machine' has a velvety sheen, touching on modern sexy D. Ramirez-type electro-house, juddery Justice riddims, old skool electro, Plumpy breaks, bleepy Trickyesque bizness, speak 'n' spell robotica and a hell of a lot more. There's a consistency to their sound that glazes the whole album - sexy electronic dance music that'll be rocking floors from Brighton to Beijing, quite simply 'Pleasure Machine' is bang on the money.
Accumulating all the tools to soundtrack a fantastic night out, the Splitloop guys have set the dials for pleasure. The touring that's going to be accompanying this album is going to bring them into contact with a whole new set of pleasure-seeking individuals.
Bren is philosophical about their early career. "Our first studio had a broken toilet, so everything smelled like piss," he remembers. "We could never afford monitors 'cos all our money went on pills and beer. As soon as we gave up pills, we bought monitors and got signed."
