Description Of Music

Expertly cut together in ascending order of BPM this is a hip hop history lesson like no other. All the classic beats from the Bronx River parties of the genre's genesis to the b-boy breaks still sampled by today's best producers, everyone will recognize something that's been used somewhere by somebody! But don't take our word for it, check out a 5 minute session here: http://www.myspace.com/djsuperix - it's bananas!

Background
DJ Super Rix, longtime associate and partner in DJ antics with U.K hip hop high-rollers Yoda & Greenpeace, presents the ultimate (literally) mix of everyone's favourite breaks & beats series, the legendary Street Beat 'Ultimate Breaks & Beats'.

Debuting in 1986, months before the Emu SP1200 hit markets in mid-1987, the Ultimate Breaks soon became a 'must-have' for all hip hop DJs, and it's probable that these two facts combined are the sole reasons why pre-1987 drum machine driven hip-hop gave way to the use of samples and loops - this series literally shaped the history of the genre! Even some 1986 needle drops that appear in Hip-Hop that year originate here.

In fact the Ultimate Breaks series were compiled as a way to gather all the Hip-Hop DJ's battle tracks into a one-stop-shop when Hip-Hop still meant MC's were a compliment to the real attraction, the DJ.

Ultimate. There's simply no better word to describe the grooves, rhythms & drums that powered hip-hop in its infancy & throughout its golden age.

The hugely legendary, often diversely compiled, but always forever loved 'Ultimate Breaks & Beats' series remain the true building blocks on which the music born of the Bronx, invaded & conquered our whole world.
