They both have there place.
I don't think that breaks is a fashion thing, it has been around for years and has only become more popular over the last year or so."..truth has a habit of marching on.." -
breaks are finally getting the attention they deserve. Breaks are alot more open to be creative, imo, that prog is. BUT, i still tend to listen to prog alot more than breaks. i think breaks will subtly fade where we'll hear a nice mixture of both genres. right now though, breaks certainly seem to be more popular.Should I fuck you at that not until the ass, inject then tremendously hard bumschen and to the termination in the eyes yes?Comment

as long as you're not talking about florida breaks...why the competition? nothing is going to kill anything...dj's have always played, bought, and produced breaks as well as straight beats...Comment

id agree that they are def getting more popular because they are more accessible and radio friendly than a prog tune for example.Originally posted by Garrick
on the other hand i wouldnt say "they are finally getting the attention they deserve"...theyve been massively popular for over a good year and a half now. when i really got into dance music over 4 years ago breaks were few and far between at gigs here in oz....now they have exploded to ridiculous proportions. which is a shame for me because i got into prog the year and a half ago when breaks blew up.....and prog blew out. go figure
imo the funkier side of breaks these days is fuckin shizen. completely recycled and everyone is cashing in on stealing a guitar riff and throwing it into in a breaks tune. typical market saturation.can i get a rewind?Comment

Re:: BTW: breaks vs. progressive
I like both of them!Don't take life too Seriously!!!Comment

I like them both. But I tend to listen to more prog then breaks mostly.Common Sense is not Common at all.Comment

Most breaks still have an emphasis on the 1 and the 3 so in that realm they make a perfect compliment to one another, not a competition...
DJs that can wind in and out of breaks and straight 4-4 in a set are doing the listener a favour IMHO.Comment

Re:: BTW: breaks vs. progressive
IMHO
1.breaks have never been so quality as today because most prog or house or breaks scene talents are working on it
2.as history shows, only the root styles remain (like house, hiphop, techno) and all the branches die out or transform (acidhouse, hardcore, electro,etc)
3. therefore, breaks are becoming an alternative for prog (sooner or later both will fade out)
4. so, I will not be suprised if tomorow we'll hear about the techno-house-hiphop-acid revival.
Music is not underground anymore. Fact.Comment

unome, whay do you have to come up with a comment like that to try to kill the discusion, by implying that this is a stupid question?
breaks has been around for a while, of course, but only the last year or so the big prog dj's has started mixing in breaks tunes into prog sets, and I love it. A prog set with a few breaks tunes just makes the roof lift. Also been seeing more and more dj's playing only breaks sets. I think breaks is here to stay for good.
But i dont think breaks has that much to do with house though...Comment
