Breakstep... well sort of...



Breakstep came out of the whole UKG thing when producers like Darqwan, Zed Bias and Zinc cast away the sext shuffle of 2-step for a more beefy breakbeat sound while keeping the essence of UKG intact. Since then its has undergone a few interpretations, what would generally be considered breakstep today, is the kinda stuff put out by Marlow, Warlock, Blackmass Plastics etc, Im not really into this sound but im loving the techstep inspired works of Reso and the broken beat 2 step of TRG, while this doesn't really bear any resemblance to new Breakstep it definitely has made a fairly significant sacrific at the altar of Oris Jay et al.
