LB3
|
|
|
In an effort to further the energetic sound of breakbeat, LB3, along with many other New York City breaks djs have been organizing events throughout the New York City area and beyond, to showcase their favorite aspects of breakbeat.
Currently, LB3 has arranged a monthly breaks party in Brooklyn with co-resident, Domoniquetrix. In the past, the party called NUCLEUS, has featured djs such as Hi-Fi, Wavewhore, Chill Whitey, 3L3TRONIC, and Dee Bass from Montreal. Unlike the typical four-on-the-floor, quarter-note kick drum configuration of most electronic music, breakbeat offers a syncopated, bass-heavy form, allowing listeners and dancers alike to feel a different rhythmic emphasis. It is this characteristic that yeilds more freedom in dance and appreciation. Compile these qualities with trance-like, rhythymic drop outs and blood-boiling crescendos and you arrive at the full throttle, in-your-face sound of breakbeat. Be sure to check out the site for downloads, pics of past events, and upcoming sets by LB3 and be part of the breakbeat movement!!!
