Breakcore.
Not noticed to it to pass it was not possible. For today it is one of the most extreme styles of electronic music who has united in itself on the basis of Breakbeat and IDM, such elements of musical styles as (Ragga-)Jungle, Hardcore Techno, Drum & Bass, and also some influence New-Rave.

Deposits of style have appeared approximately in the middle of 90th years. How on light has appeared Breakcore? Authentically it is not known, but there is a number of data when in Berlin and Cologne (Germany), one dj's the command under the name "Bass Terror Crew", has started to put on the parties heavier of a Breakbeat-plate, all was reached is by game of vinyl on 45 RPM, instead of initially planned 33 RPM (impacts in a minute). But thus name Breakcore, has arisen in other place. At the same time DJ Tanith, specializing on Hardcore Techno parties, has begun a number new Party where for the first time as style it was specified "Breakcore".

Approximately then, in the beginning and the middle 90th years which were much Hardcore Techno-musicians tired from poorly changeable in sounding and practically not evoluting Hardcore Techno, and in particular Gabber, ideas from Jungle-music of the end 80 and have started to adopt the beginnings 90 (than approximately occurrence Ragga-Jungle speaks). That became one more step forward in development of new style. In a consequence in this music became more often and to add broken rhythms, so-called Break Beats, and especially favourite by Ragga-Jungle-musicians - Amen Drum more. Provisional technology of construction of a track it was kind borrowed from already got stronger then IDM, with what its connected big similarity. Background sounding drums and bass traditionally occured from theme Hardcore Techno, the atmosphere has been frequently borrowed from industrial music, such as various Noise, Industrial Ambient and every possible urbanistic landscapes.

In the further style has started to leave in a music category, to develop the concept and "traditional character" of sounding. In due course from it some has left "raves like" a sound, and on its replacement unknown speed, density, aggressive mood and total destroy has come, all it also has been flavoured by good portion jokes and an intoxication.

As in development of style that fact has affected, that the prices for computers were at that time small enough, and any interested person able addresses with the program-tracker could to assist in development of style, and such it has appeared not a little.

It is considered, that the first serious releases in this style send in Berlin (Germany). An important role in development of a Breakcore-stage such known labels as Riot Beats and Digital Hardcore Recordings have played also. In particular it is necessary to allocate such musicians as Aphex Twin and Venetian Snares which have deduced Breakcore on a new step in evolution, having set that rate and having engendered new sounding.
Aphex Twin Venetian Snares

In a kind of that Breakcore initially fed forces from absolutely different directions of music, in it also send practically from everywhere: Breakbeat, IDM, (Ragga-)Jungle, Drum & Bass, Drill & Bass, Cyber Grindcore, Hardcore Techno musicians, and also had no objection to try many other things on a field of ultrahigh-speed broken rhythms and a unknown congestion till this moment of mad power. It will not be boring all!

Overwhelming majority of Breakcore-musicians work within the limits of "parties" and consequently labels are created, as a rule, friends-DJs or musicians. As a result of it on labels there is a special concentration where live and are born new hitherto unprecedented "mashup of style" from the most various, apparently, immiscible styles.

Further the cores, the most allocated subspecies Breakcore, and also "cohabitation" to other styles will be presented

Traditional Breakcore
Today classical sounding associates first of all with Venetian Snares. It is rigid and megahigh-speed Hard IDM, as not deprived melodies, and during too time a bearing megaton charge of vigorous power. Certainly, Venetian Snares was not the first, but with it the world has learned, that such Breakcore, having given those young musicians new stimulus and a direction.

Mashcore
Popular enough and almost become independent current Breakcore. Generally the given subspecies arewidespread in the Europe. Here a minimum of foolish pathos, a maximum raving drive and an intoxication. As samples cuttings from popular songs, a frank pop-music, and practically everything here are used, that has got under a hand to the author.

Raggacore
It is possible to tell safely, that these subspecies became an original splinter from Breakcore and already move on an independent way. The name to this symbiosis consisting from Ragga-Jungle and Breakcore? Raggacore. there are some versions, that such Raggacore actually. The first, it almost too most, as Mashcore, only as samples is used exclusively samples from Jungle-adjacent styles. Under other version, it is following evolution in development Ragga-Jungle: accelerated, more broken and intricate, but, as a matter of fact and to spirit it is the same Ragga-Jungle. Both these versions have the right to existence, to adhere to any one version, in my opinion, it is not necessary, and here to combine them together, would be useful.
What to listen: Bong-Ra, Cardopusher, Enduser, FFF.

Drum & Bass / Breakcore
As the most popular, in a kind of prevalence Drum & Bass, mixture, on one of versions which own hand has put itself Aphex Twin having played a little bit accelerated and deprived own head Drill & Bass.

Hardcore Techno / Breakcore
Classical sounding Breakcore would Seem on true is necessary to search here, but actually all is a little on another.

What to listen: Doormouse, RotatoR.

Shitcore
It could be carried to Hardcore Techno, but the given merge takes place will be allocated from sheathe mixes with electronic Hardcore. This rather "dark" wing, with very dirty and heavy sounding, here is rather popular all it to embellish a heap from pulsing noise and to equip with an oppressive industrial atmosphere. As not seldom here acts on the foreground various Terror-making and the uttermost destroy.
What to listen: Electric Kettle, Passenger of Shit, Rotators Kids, Slam, Society Suckers.

Dubcore
Promptly growing, new enough style Dubstep has got into heads and to Breakcore-musicians.

What to listen: Aaron Spectre, Ebola.

Intelligent Breakcore
To achieve "intelligent" sounding in Breakcore it is not too simple. Actually it is very thin side between IDM and frequently not separeted. With rather high probability it is possible to speak that under Intelligent Breakcore is meant melodious Hard IDM, but thus all allocated to the core in sounding.

Dark Breakcore
It is considered, that it would begin it is necessary, when the creative tandem on behalf of Sickboy and Bong-Ra, received name Servants of The Apocalyptic Goat Rave was generated.

As a substrate not seldom use Dark Ambient, typical Breakcore-rhythmics happens sometimes is washed away.

Brutal Breakcore
One of most crazy and "brutal" subspecies of Breakcore-music. Frequently here samples borrowed at Grindcore and Death Metal-gangs but as it can be and "classical" Breakcore-sounding with very dense and brutals a sound are used. All it is passed through a meat grinder with such speed that you will not have time to break at all a head about a wall from received ecstasy. One of the most esteemed musicians in the given direction is the person, under pseudonym Drumcorps which does not hide the obvious passion to Grindcore.

Industrial Breakcore
Disputable enough division, is characterized generally in more rigid sounding and presence of an industrial atmosphere.
