Breakbeat music is DJ/turntable based music built upon Disco and Funk breakbeats. (James Brown’s "Funky Drummer" is a prime and overused example). These drum-tracks are looped and often sped up while obligatory bleeps and bloops provide the instrumentation. Breakbeat music is, for obvious reasons, ideally suited to … break-dance to. Cirrus and Omar Santana are fairly big names in this genre dominated by anonymous DJs. Source: Audiogalaxy
