1) A drum part, usually sampled from old funk records used in hip hop tracks. Breakbeats are also sliced and manipulated in drum n bass and other froms of electronic music.
2) A variant of electronic that is characterized by the lack of the typical "four on the floor" (thump thump thump thump) bassline and loud rolling basslines. It differs from drum n bass in that it's the same tempo as most house music (around 130 BPM) instead of the faster tempo of drum n bass.
