BreakBeat (sometimes BreakBeats or breaks) is a term used to describe a collection of sub-genres of electronic music, usually characterized by the use of a non-straightened 4/4 drum pattern (as opposed to the steady beat of house or trance). These rhythms may be characterized by their intensive use of syncopation and poly-rhythms, which are prominent in all music of African origin, including African American music although the actual instruments used in BreakBeat music makes it more closely related to Techno and other forms of electronic music than African or African-American genres.
