A music genre that takes influence from Hardcore and Jungle. The most defining feature of breakcore is its emphasis on drums, kick, breaks, as well as its typically fast tempo. It often includes samples from other songs, that are heavily distorted. The most common drum break used is the Amen Break, and it has even been used in more common songs, such as N.W.A's "Straight Outta Compton"
Example breakcore musicians are Venetian Snares, Bong-Ra, Wan Bushi, FFF, and Squarepusher
