where are you from?
no wonder there’s no electronic music scene in rouen
I like my beats funky, soul moaning & groaning and all…breakbeat, rave, jungle squarepusher generation…I’ve heard few interesting ‘breakcore’ tracks, maybe it;s the mandatory gabber kick that puts me off 
I love da gabbah!
and neel, how could I know you resided in that shithole Le Havre at the time ?
CHUCK NORRIS GABBER KICK!!! … no wait… the gabber kick is far from obligatory… in fact, I only hear it in about 10% of breakcore tracks… so that makes me wonder… if the square root of the hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle is the epicentre of Uranus, then how does the dynamic cardioid make you happy?
I was in Paris this weekend, were you close by?
On the gabbakick, I only like it if it isn’t obnoxious and overruling
stampeding horde of distorted 909 mayhem downtown. I guess.
I think I’m, gonna make some gabbaglitchmayhem
some people think that breakcore its allready dead. for me (there is no genre whit renoise ) 
I personally think that Breakcore artists should start playing shows at industrial clubs. There are alot of olcschool rivetheads who are pissed off at how EBM has taken over their scene, and would like to hear a little noise a’la Throbbing Gristle. Breakcore, having similar sonic qualities to oldschool Industrial, albeit a million times faster, will almost definitely appeal to the Industrial/Noise crowd more than DnB/Jungle fans. Just a thought
Byte is right.
Except it’s not often the artists who decide where to play…
Industrial party organisers need to book em first…
On a sidenote… isn’t there an oldskool UK breakbeat-thing going on
in breakcoreland recently? Bong Ra aka Glowstyxx, Venetian Snares’
Pink + Green, FFF’s latest Planet Mu release…
Well the artists need to start gaining a fanbase that appreciates their work… and I just don’t see that fanbase in the DnB scene. The fact is, Breakcore is much to harsh and abrasive for most junglists, whereas I KNOW there are industrial fans that are scouring labels like Metropolis hoping to find the very musical sensibility that breakcore already offers. The problem is that alot of them don’t know it exists, or they avoid it because of the lol-kiddie sounding genre label. “Breakcore” sounds so emo-scene at first that many people seriously interested in hardcore music (and by hardcore, by no means do I mean the wimpy genre with the same name) will completely overlook it without even giving the music a listen. Personally I think the Breakcore moniker could be dropped in favor of something more serious sounding… don’t ask me what, but the word “Drill” should probably be used 
“Drill in skull now kthx”
Oh, what’s in a name… I don’t think breakcore sounds emo-ish…
I DO think yer regular DnB crowd is too emo for breakcore.
Industrial and breakcore are very alike when you compare the sound.
Jungle and breakcore are very alike when it comes to structure.
Breakcore and emo are as far apart as Luxembourg and New Zealand.
I think most people interested in breakcore are looking for a certain
degree of intensity in dancemusic. But when it comes to listening to
other genres of music, open mindness is everything.
I played at a few hardcore gigs and discovered breakcore is too
complex rythmwise to get a gabbacrowd really going. Maybe it’s a
whole different story with an industrial crowd, but it all comes down to
what you’re looking for in music.
Music is as abstract as the people listening and making it.
The Gabba scene unfortunately attracts alot of generic oontz fans… mainly because it’s 4 on the floor… Industrial doesn’t tend to be 4 on the floor(Unless it’s EBM)… so its fans are often more at home with non-standard rhythms and time signatures.
Who cares. Just spin the track if it’s good, has passion. I spun some Kallipolis at a forest gig and the fire-dancers went mad when the amen stuff goes wild - only to spin a nice mid-paced groovy Kate Bush song right after (Nocturn), and they loved that too.
Genre and scene names are words for journos to get hooked on. In real life things are much more complex, and a good song is a good song regardless of style or genre.
And I’ll still spin amen break music when “it’s not cool to”, just as much as I’ll drop a Habib Koté track cause no one was expecting it.
