Welcome to r/breakcore!

This sub is an ON-TOPIC subreddit to the musical genre Breakcore. A genre in the realms of other HARDCORE genres, specifically EXTREME electronic music - hence the CORE in its name.

While Breakcore is loosely defined, it has some distinct characteristics that determine the genre. Heavily edited breaks, lots of distortion, generous sampling and High-BPM are elements that accompany the sound. Off-topic content will be removed. Removals are transparent and will have a reason (from the rules) added.

We welcome new members the same way as established users. One of the most asked questions raised in this sub is "Recommend me some Breakcore/Artists/Labels!" so in this topic we will collect a list of established artists to help introduce interested users to the genre.

This list will not claim completeness as there are far too many artists and labels to list. It's supposed to help newcomers finding their way. Suggestions with an effort will be considered. Low-Effort, Off topic and Self Promotion submissions will not.
