Hey good video man! I hope you got an A on your school project, I learned a lot from your video. In fact, so much so that now I know that I may be one of the hated groups within the breakcore community lol. I've been listening to breakcore (or what I thought was breakcore) for almost a year now so I'd say I'm pretty new to the genre and as you can imagine I come from the 'fakecore' side of the genre, as you've called it and I think I understand what you explain in that segment. This "modern" breakcore, 'lolicore' or 'chill breakcore' (as I've seen labeled) that exploded around 2022, is quite different fron the original breakcore as you explained. In general the breaks are much more distorted and sampled in more extreme ways and also has a completely different feel compared to this current trend, in which the breaks are much simpler and the music much calmer and less experimental overall. On the other hand, I can't help but think that calling it 'Ambient Jungle' doesn't quite do it justice and 'fakecore' a bit derogatory. It is true that this pseudo-breakcore and rhe OG breakcore have strong differences both culturally and of composition. OG breakcore feels much more experimental and hardcore as opposed to the aesthetic style and closely associated with anime culture that, although I listen to this type of music daily, I understand that it can feel kinda edgy and even cringey (or at least that's how I felt at first before listening to it) especially for breakcore purists. A part of me feels that this musical trend is nothing more than a new subgenre born from internet culture that could be said to be more commercial or friendlier to the musical tastes of a more generic or less refined audience, so to speak, but with some things in common with OG breakcore such as the transmission of sad, dramatic, frenetic feelings or the close relationship between this music and neurodiversity. Appart from that, I understand why older, more veteran breakcore listeners may eveb feel furious that this new batch of people refer to another type of music as if it were THE breakcore genre as a whole (myself included before watching this video) and ignore the origins of the genre. It is not the first time that something like this happens in the world of music. For example Memphis phonk (originally) and the Drift Phonk subgenre that completely eclipsed it or Old House music and the current more Pop/EDM house music to name a few cases which I find similar. I think that what has been happening in recent years with breakcore is the natural evolution of what happens when a musical genre reaches the general public, it transforms in many aspects and ends up resembling more popular and less experimental genres. It is not a better subgenre, just different and I believe that anyone who loves music knows and appreciates the history and evolution of the genres they listen to. I really liked your video and it made me reflect on the subject and of course now I am interested in exploring breakcore beyond what I heard until now. You probably have different opinions regarding what I have said and I would even say that it is possible that I was wrong about many points i made and I would love to share opinions and recommendations with anyone who reads this comment.
I am genuinely so happy that this video reached a person like you! I'm glad I could teach you about all this stuff, and I agree with pretty much every opinion listed here. I do get that calling it fakecore/ambient jungle *is* a bit derogatory, and I apologize. It definitely is it's own genre and thing, and I totally respect it! The only problem for me is that people call it "breakcore" for some reason, I think it just needs to get it's own name tbh lmao. TYSM for watching, and happy listening!
I agree with you, it should have its own name, Ambient Jungle is not really degrading but I just don't think it fits... But 'lolicore', as I've once read, definitely is. It doesn't represent it at all hahahaha. Thanks for the reply! :))
Atmospheric dnb is what the objectively real name would be for a lot of modern stuff (sewerslvt influenced stuff basically). Atmospheric breakcore is a good split down the middle, appeases both crowds
can't wait for the genre that femtanyl does, her music literally doesn't have any genre, it's genre could be called Femtanylcore at this point lol, "Femtcore" (Ugh I'm stupid, I thought that people were givving you suggestions as I still didn't see the whole vid when commenting, and there was a comment about waiting for "fixcore" 😭😭😭😭)
@@elthomasdjfhdfsgdgjkdfgldsg I feel like the "edgyness" plays a big part in femtanyl's music, mainly just the lyrics, also idk, searched up "hardcore breaks with digital hardcore" and while they sounded similar, they didn't really give off the same "energy" as femtanyl for me
@bobua2137 well, Femtanyl sounds very similar to Machine Girl, in both sound and aggression I would say, and they're both the same genres (hardcore breaks and digital hardcore) maybe it's because these genres can come in different ways and sounds, some more aggressive than others but yeah
A really great overview of what breakcore really is!! As who was one of the first breakcore artist is, iirc a video mentioned how an artist called Alec Empire was one of the notable producers that pushed the breakcore scene before venetian. Albeit I would say that vsnares did popularize the modern sound we hear today. Aside from that, i really love the section touching on fakecore lol + i also started ventruing into mashcore which is a rabbit hole im willingly falling deep into!!!
NO WAY I'VE SEEN YOU BEFORE WHAT I love your music :D Tysm for the feedback and kind words! Yeah a lot of people have commented about Alec Empire, I've listened to Alec before but I had no idea he was the first, so thank you, and all of the commenters for clarifying that for me! I'll probably add a disclaimer in the description of the video later lol :D
U know what, its been a while since I find new breakcore artists that I like, I've been years stuck to Bye2, Rory in the early 20's (which funny enough, I always thought was an arbitrary year selection), Machine girl, Goreshit, Venetian snares and the usual [2 released songs from just a couple weeks ago] artists like Zzkillme, iera, Crxw (the one I'd reccomend the most out of the little ones for its similarity to Rory's music which is the one I'd recommend the most in general)... Sure enough, breakcore is not the only thing that I like to listen to, but it's also definitely the one that motivates me the most to do stuff apart from rotting in front of my pc, and I think I've listened so much to the same artists over and over again that I got to a point in which I don't get this feeling out of it anymore. Maybe all the problem is that I just usually wait for songs to come at me instead of searching for them, but maybe if I do it it's because it works, like when this video appeared in my for u :). But I digress, the point is, cool video essay man, I loved pretty much all the music u used to make it and Ima go and check the artists u recommended rn, also, I'd like to recommend some non-breakcore music that I think u'd like: Iyowa, some of DennokoP, some of Muship, Femtanyl, Awerewa, Metaroom and some of CheapeX, being this one the one i recommend the least.
As an artist myself, I really dont care about genre semantics, what matters more is who is innovating more, and who is trying their best to make something great. although i do like breakcore, the atmospheric dnb scene seems to be innovating much more than the modern breakcore scene, so that is what I’m more invested in
Atmospheric dnb is just more mainstream. Artists like sorry about my face, please be quiet, and tsundere violence record label are releasing stuff pretty often that advances crafts
@@tumultoustortellini eh, i checked em out and they didnt scratch my itch, the things that come to mind for me are more “like a paper plane” by 2 0 2 1, “se bueno” by turquoisedeath, “toybox” by nanoray, “dark blossom” by lexycat, and “metamorphose” by bye2, those really define modern innovation, for me
Ultrakill brainroted me so hard that i can't hear a fast drum break or beat or simply an amen break with not imagining a derranged blue robot tossing coins rapidly
My favorite part of the breakcore community has to be furries. Lapfox, the quick brown fox, burning brain sound industries, Renard, 4lung, etc. They very rarely ever lay off on extreme beats and chaotic samples. A lot of samples in BBSI (burning brain sound industries) songs include a plethora of memes, in fact almost every song they make has a meme sample in it. One song by TQBF (the quick brown fox) even goes over 1000 BMP. You might have heard some of their songs in animation memes before as they tend to resonate with the furries of that community. This part of the community also tends to have other sub genres like speedcore sometimes. I personally love this side of breakcore/hardstyle and wish more people can check it out. Soundcloud is your best bet for finding all the songs. I would make a video about it myself but tbh it's just better for a person to listen to it and experience it for themselves and for them to discover more about this community. But if anybody wants recommendations, start with Act my Age by 4lung, brutal rhythm rider by TQBF, and color of the dress by Babe Fiends. (Sorry 4 the super long comment I love yapping about breakcore furries)
Yeah the furry community is super involved with breakcore, and although I'm not personally a furry, the breakcore produced by furries is typically super good! (Also yeah TQBF and Renard are super nice! I'm pretty sure they're operated by the same person, but I might be wrong)
@@twigplaysstuff yeah the whole lapfox scene is one person that's why most just say lapfox but it's impressive how they can all have different styles despite it being one person!
shoebill mention? You're cultured. Try listening to sorry about my face, please be quiet, axtrmnt, and chinesemidiboard, they are all some great artists worth checking out in the scene. edit: small correction on "fakecore": This actually blew up in 2019 and 2020, with sewerslvt leading the charge pretty much single-handedly, and other artists coming out of the woodwork to assist in pushing the style (sofțxoxo's, zenithlights, watering, salad, loli in early 20s (now rory in early 20s) and namii (now kyoumeni), are my personal picks, but the general soundcloud breakbeat artist community at large was responsible) edit 2: You're missing a subtype (I know you said as much, just felt like filling in my knowledge, I hope this doesn't come off as dickish, if so, my bad): Depressive breakcore. The artists I said in my reccomendation list are all that (minus chinesemidiboard). It's characterized by harsher breaks, comparable to type b, but low or hidden sample amount. And lower frequencies ("sorry about my face -... and thoughts of suicide" and "please be quiet - cherophobia" are both good examples).
Reizoko CJ and venetian snares were also my introduction but that was in like the late 2000s, I'm honestly surprised it still is for the newer generations tbh I thought it was the "fakecore" you mention being the main introduction, then from there they go back and find vsnares and the others. Anyway good vid, from one breakcore historian to another lol
ffffinally, actually good informative video with good examples songs, also you can seee, the video being made with passion by someone that has dived deep into the genre, ccoll video!
Brother... Hands down _the best_ video essay about the genre. You basically boiled down to a 20min vid a plethora of topics and discussions about the genre, its origin and subgenres without leaning too much on technicality or the stuff said on Wikipedia, it was an honest surprise to actually listen to somebody talking about something they ACTUALLY LISTEN TO and every. Single. Example. Was on fucking point. Heck you even put riaijuu on the mix, i thought we were like...? 20 in the whole world? Who listens to them. Now about the examples, i actually began listening to breakcore via Reizoko Cj and Venetian Snares too, my first ever breakcore song was a recommendation from 20...13? 2012? ( I cant remember) And it was ULTRAVIOLENT JUNGLIST by yours truly Venetian Snares, the first time i heard it i was like "what the? Its like the music i like in midnight club 3( it was Soundwall VIP by Dom & Roland) but its really aggressive and... Absurdly well made" and it was love at first sight. Then a little after cirnoRHTL got recommended and i just became a hardcore fan of the genre, cirnoRHTL is just perfect. My main artists are: Reizoko Cj (yup, still), Venetian snares (original, i know), NEKOPHILIAC (I... Like lolicore too), LHK, pencil, HAWAWA(cmon, bananafishEP was my first ever album downloaded, i still love it) and at last nyojikko. I dont have a favorite between them, as everyone is a master on what they do (or did... Plase come back nyojikko) Man... Just thanks for actually showing people what breakcore essentially is, and although the damage is pretty visible already, i guess its just hype that's going to die down just like the techno that was actually EDM that actually didn't exist shit (i still cant believe people actually said that Marshmellow was techno, fuck no, techno is fanon flowers, WAX. , 999999999, etc.)
Woah, this is one of the best youtube documentaries I saw, the amount of information you put in such a short time is shocking, another shocking thing is that I just found out that what I have been listening to, and what I produced was wrongly labeled as breakcore, and after watching this video there I have a dilema going on inside my head, what should this new genre be called?"Fakecore" just sounds unpleasant, and ambient jungle is misleading, I saw a comment suggesting a name atmospheric dnb/breakcore, and its honestly the best option. Thank you for such great video, and I hope you got the highest score out of your class.
fantastic video, about the adhd part i would also say as autistic that for me its like calming cause the impossibility to find a hook to remember something else, makes me stop from thinking about something that isn't relevant in that moment
ngl, i’ve got to thank you for posting this video, as it helped me find the most delightful songs i have ever heard. before I almost didn’t have any information about breakcore, the only song i had known was Break This Breaking Point 2, and currently i have been listening to a bit of Vertigoaway (not sure if they do breakcore but just saying it sounds similar imo). but when you introduced glitchcore and played Terminal 11, i genuinely couldn’t stop listening to that clip you put of Reluctantly Accepting Temporary Overexhaustion, and i really have to thank you for giving me something so refreshing to listen to.
No problem! I'm so glad I could introduce you to Terminal 11. :) Btw, this video really demonstrates the amount of time and effort put into Terminal 11 tracks, they're all made with a software called a tracker which requires the user to input the time/pitch etc for each little bit: th-cam.com/video/AkmWKVX5Cdc/w-d-xo.html sandwich
My first introduction to breakcore and adjacent genres was through Lauren's work, (specifically through animation memes lol) and I have been a sucker for this kind of music since. Thank you for more suggestions of music to listen to!
I would love if we had animation memes with breakcore in it. I would, but again like my previous comment, i have no idea how to animate whatsoever no matter how much i would like to.
Glad to see people talking about Reizoko since he's the mashcore GOAT, idk what glitchcore is but the examples could personally be classed as drill and bass since both this glitchcore and drill and bass have an IDM sound with less of a focus on the hardcore part of breakcore and more focus on the break part of breakcore. Either way really good video, hope the teacher graded you well after closing the tab as soon as they heard the first example :P
honestly the section on fakecore was great and honestly i might reconsider some of my tracks under those genres because they definitely ARENT breakcore. but knowing that they still are usually enjoyed by people who i used to point that towards
I'm so excited to see someone put this all to something that's comprehensive. I try explaining all this to people at get looked at funny. breakcore is like another language to communicate in, Laura Les said it best in I wud nvrstop u, "u got me feeling like- into a hardcut to breakbeat." breakcore organizes all that chaos into songs about a specific group of feelings to experience in a curated enviroment, and makes an artpiece out of it that you can show to your friends.
Probably weren't expecting a school project to blow up on YT, but the video essay lovers have arrived! My only critique is your voice editing. You didn't remove any of the breathing sounds and certain syllables randomly peak the mic as you try to enunciate clearly. FL studio has an automatic remover if you need a uh, paid for legal copy. Cough cough.
I thought breakcore was just Drum breaks? Also btw thank you for doing this I fuckn love this project. I'd like to see more depth on the art of these genres however I have severe misophonia to the point where disorganized tones cause me waves of physical discomfort, even though all I listen to is goreshit least anime themed tracks and fentanyl💀😭 I would like to share my thoughts on this genre with you because I've been hyperfixated on specific music and even though I don't produce any songs, I hella want to make some bangers to go with my own art when I get the chance to learn how to get the sources. (yes I draw, I also have over 30 incomplete ocs and 10 years of experience) Hope to see more stuff like this. Otherwise, beautiful presentation.
Oh no way I have misophonia but for me it's just for chewing noises lol. If you wanna produce, I'd suggest using FL Studio trial edition, it's the best free DAW you could get other than LMMS. Anyways yeah, I'm so glad I could teach you about breakcore, and tysm for the kind words! If you wanna chat more on the genre, my username is twiiiiig on discord!
@@twigplaysstuff Hell yea, the only problem I have is that I don't have a computer, nor do I have a job yet (thanks to rich people), so I'm finna have to find a way to make death rave dnb on my Motorola 🤣😭
This is a common misconception and it has to do with how we understand the -core suffix. Nowadays in the internet it's being used to describe any kind of aesthetic, like cottage + core = cottagecore. But in breakcore's case, this suffix comes from _hardcore,_ a term used to describe all kinds of heavy music. Breakcore is, in its essence, breakbeat music taken to its extreme, with fast tempos, heavy distortion and intricate, chaotic choppage, as well as influence from other hardcore music styles like gabber and punk rock.
noo you forgot the OG breakcore scene prior to the post-2000s internet p2p breakcore scene, which developed alongside jungle and later DnB from breakbeat hardcore!! it's so over for you bro!
Cool video, however there's this one flaw that I would like to comment. Venetian Snares althought is the most well known artist of the genre, didn't invent breakcore. Breakcore was created/pioneered in the mid-90s by Alec Empire from Atari Teenage Riot, who took influences from Jungle/DnB and Hardcore Techno. So yeah, there was breakcore before Vsnares even started producing it. Some examples of this "early/old school breakcore" would be Christoph de Babalon, Shizuo, Bomb 20 and Alec himself. But besides that, it's a nice video and it's great to see more people explaining what real breakcore is instead of "hahaha sewerslvt atmospheric anime dnb jungle!!!!!!!!11!11!". Hope you got a good grade for this project!
once i learn drums i'm going to learn the amen break and play it outside your window at night ❤️ also with the autism stuff you mentioned that makes a lotta sense, i haven't been able to put it into words but it totally sounds like how stimming feels for me, and it's definitely like perfect to stim to :]
Yo what a amazing introduction into breakcore although I’m not a real breakcore fan I’m a Junglist I still respect the real breakcore community In my opinion fake core is anime drum and bass I think they call it breakcore to get more attention aka views and subscribers but other than that amazing video into the breakcore world 👊🏿🥁
Flashcore is when you combine breakcore and glitch and idm and “wandering soundscapes” (so essentially either formless or very unpredictable song form) and sometimes it sounds futuristic and similar to breakcore and then you have qebrus and /f ( she’s sometimes kinda flashcore) type flashcore which is incomprehensible and doesn’t feel human
Some glitchcore is called flashcore by mistake even though they’re kiiinda similar but flashcore comes from la peste and takes heavy inspiration from autechre
And flashcore is much more focused on building an atmosphere than being aggressive. It can be very aggressive at times but it’s like a bubbling ambient soundscape but every bubble is a weird sound
(sorry for the long comment but I am just passionate lol) Nice video man, the editing is amazing and the whole thing was entertaining throughout, tho I have some criticism. First I feel like you kinda just skipped over the origin of the genre, tho it's understanable since it's kinda really disconected from Australia to Europe, tho you can at least mension, Artists like "Alec Empire" from Germany as the creator of the first breakcore album "the Destroyer". Venetian Snares is not so "one of the first artists" but more of the pioneer of the genre pushing it to new limits with inovation and genre mixing a good example you showed was "Hajnal"(good taste). Also Thanks for talking about Reizoko Cj, He deserves so much more love... But as my last criticism abou the Mashcore Section and calling "type A" "Shoebill Mashcore" kinda comes out as if you're framing it like shoebill invented (I don't belive that was your intention) but It might get people confused Artists like "Annoying Ringtone" (Check him out if you haven't heard his stuff) and "DJKurara" for example made music really REALLY similar to Shoebill's way before he came onto the sciene. For "type B" it's fair since Reizoko's style is so unique some people and artist's cathecorize it as it's own subgenre (reizokocore). That's it for my criticism Really good video, much love :) But also I want to recommed you check out the Polish breakcore sciene and artists like "Loffciamcore" he created a new mashcore subgenre (not really new lol it's like 10 to 11 years old lol) called "Polcore" which is really Reizoko Cj adjacent and it's really comedic in nature. Here's a really fun example tho that's not Loffciamcore lol: th-cam.com/video/zydTFkmo6C4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=THMJy5uf628az146
Ah, yeah, I didn't realize that calling shoebill "type A" would make it seem like shoeb invented it, but in retrospect it does kinda seem like that, my bad lol. Also yeah Annoying Ringtone and DJKurara did do a lot of stuff similar to Shoebill's style before shoeb was producing, Shoebill is just my personal fav lul, I would have gotten deeper into the history of all of the subgenres/Alec Empire n stuff but I was on a pretty tight time limit cos' of the whole school project thing yknow. Oh also Polcore is bangin' :D Anyways yeah tysm for the awesome comment and kind words :))
@@twigplaysstuff It's always good to see shoebill rep. Had to import his album from canada to eastern europe lol. my personal favourite is DjKurara tho
yea it's important to note that my sound is very much just a spectrum of influences including that of annoying ringtone and djkurara, plus foxdye, cardopusher and renard etc etc but with the style being heavily focused on that schmaltzy sound u hear from those guys, but I've been trying to implement more idm influences lately like Ruby my dear and just wanting to experiment with my sound more, it's just super hard and I've been trying to focus on other creative work for a while thank you for the mention and I'm sorry ur teacher had to put up with hearing my weird shit, take it easy
@@Shoebill First of all: HI SHOEBILL! Your music has kept me alive for the past 2 years, thank you. you're genuinely my fav artist/producer, tied with vsnares. Second of all: yeah, the new idm stuff in your music is awesome! it only sounds faintly similar to your older stuff imo, but that's fine by me, it's still super super nice! and ofc, i saw that you were on a hiatus on soundcloud, take all the time you need! you're welcome for the mention, i just genuinely love your music and i wanna share it with others! and don't apologize for my teacher, i'm sure he loved your stuff. you take it easy as well, ty for watching my video, and ty for the comment! :))
The microphone quality seemed sorta harsh and a little painful at my normal listening volume, but I stayed for the quality information and your good taste in the various genres mentioned. You should be proud and uh hope you got a good grade :3
Yeah, some of my settings in OBS got messed up when I recorded this idk why lol. Tysm for the kind words! I'll update the description when I find out what grade I get lol :3
Pretty nice video! Although it bugs me a bit that you only mentionned tiktok as the one at fault because while they did help misappropriate the term, i think this whole mislabeling shenanigans started when TH-cam algorithm decided to bring Sewerslvt into popularity, who by coincidence calls their stuff breakcore when it's actually atmospheric DnB back at around 2019-2022. (Atleast i think that's what happened) Hope you get good grades for this!
I'd say Alec empire broadly invented breakcore in '93 / '94. Venetian Snares popularized a drill & bass / IDM influenced subgenre which came to redefine the genre as a whole when he got super popular.
At the end of the day... You end up saying "oh that's not breakcore! That's a new style of 90's jazzy drum and bass mixed with liquid drum and bass production!" Just like how some 90s r4ver nerd would get mad at you for calling vsnares breakcore when he's "clearly a drill and bass producer who incorporates hardcore rave influences into his music"
Lmao I have like 30, I'll try to whip up a playlist of my all time favs real quick! (It may take me a bit as I have a lot on my schedule at the moment)
great video. proud that reizoko cj is the same natinality as me. i listened thousands of hours of him. and i'm also very concerned about the "fakecore" problem. to the point that i made my own educational mix. how did your school react to this? just very curious.
Hey, how did you animate those little dudes? I remember a specific tool/website doing something similar, but if you did it on your own, then wow! It looks really really cool
if you want more recommendations for breakcore artists I recommend xanopticon, rotator, i broke my robot, datach'i, bong ra, mike paradinas, and the distant arrays compilation series. xanopticon and datach'i are my favorite of the 2, xano's drum programming is unlike anything i've ever heard in my life(I recommend his album "Liminal Space" and EP "Meme Mage", and datach'is earlier works(We Are Always Well Thank You and Mmale and Ffemale are some of his best works)
not gonna lie i enjoy "fakecore" more because it's way easier to listen to than traditional breakcore. plus the core of the music is still made up of breaks, so technically it's break-core ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
As a producer who experiments with both Jungle and Breakcore, it's nice to see somebody finally point out how TikTok ruined the media's perception of Breakcore.
It’s interesting to see (/hear) what music is to other’s ears. Traditional music is all about creating these very artistic, methodical melodies. While break core is more so an art of destruction, a cacophony of ruins with an artist’s touch. I still fucking hate it but I can say I watched right ‘til 21’30. Cool video

Hey good video man! I hope you got an A on your school project, I learned a lot from your video.
In fact, so much so that now I know that I may be one of the hated groups within the breakcore community lol. I've been listening to breakcore (or what I thought was breakcore) for almost a year now so I'd say I'm pretty new to the genre and as you can imagine I come from the 'fakecore' side of the genre, as you've called it and I think I understand what you explain in that segment.
This "modern" breakcore, 'lolicore' or 'chill breakcore' (as I've seen labeled) that exploded around 2022, is quite different fron the original breakcore as you explained. In general the breaks are much more distorted and sampled in more extreme ways and also has a completely different feel compared to this current trend, in which the breaks are much simpler and the music much calmer and less experimental overall. On the other hand, I can't help but think that calling it 'Ambient Jungle' doesn't quite do it justice and 'fakecore' a bit derogatory.
It is true that this pseudo-breakcore and rhe OG breakcore have strong differences both culturally and of composition. OG breakcore feels much more experimental and hardcore as opposed to the aesthetic style and closely associated with anime culture that, although I listen to this type of music daily, I understand that it can feel kinda edgy and even cringey (or at least that's how I felt at first before listening to it) especially for breakcore purists.
A part of me feels that this musical trend is nothing more than a new subgenre born from internet culture that could be said to be more commercial or friendlier to the musical tastes of a more generic or less refined audience, so to speak, but with some things in common with OG breakcore such as the transmission of sad, dramatic, frenetic feelings or the close relationship between this music and neurodiversity. Appart from that, I understand why older, more veteran breakcore listeners may eveb feel furious that this new batch of people refer to another type of music as if it were THE breakcore genre as a whole (myself included before watching this video) and ignore the origins of the genre.
It is not the first time that something like this happens in the world of music. For example Memphis phonk (originally) and the Drift Phonk subgenre that completely eclipsed it or Old House music and the current more Pop/EDM house music to name a few cases which I find similar. I think that what has been happening in recent years with breakcore is the natural evolution of what happens when a musical genre reaches the general public, it transforms in many aspects and ends up resembling more popular and less experimental genres. It is not a better subgenre, just different and I believe that anyone who loves music knows and appreciates the history and evolution of the genres they listen to.
I really liked your video and it made me reflect on the subject and of course now I am interested in exploring breakcore beyond what I heard until now. You probably have different opinions regarding what I have said and I would even say that it is possible that I was wrong about many points i made and I would love to share opinions and recommendations with anyone who reads this comment.
I am genuinely so happy that this video reached a person like you! I'm glad I could teach you about all this stuff, and I agree with pretty much every opinion listed here. I do get that calling it fakecore/ambient jungle *is* a bit derogatory, and I apologize. It definitely is it's own genre and thing, and I totally respect it! The only problem for me is that people call it "breakcore" for some reason, I think it just needs to get it's own name tbh lmao. TYSM for watching, and happy listening!
I agree with you, it should have its own name, Ambient Jungle is not really degrading but I just don't think it fits... But 'lolicore', as I've once read, definitely is. It doesn't represent it at all hahahaha. Thanks for the reply! :))
Atmospheric dnb is what the objectively real name would be for a lot of modern stuff (sewerslvt influenced stuff basically). Atmospheric breakcore is a good split down the middle, appeases both crowds
@@tumultoustortellini yeah sounds about right
@@tumultoustortellini yes, and definitely it sounds good too
can't wait for the genre that femtanyl does, her music literally doesn't have any genre, it's genre could be called Femtanylcore at this point lol, "Femtcore"
(Ugh I'm stupid, I thought that people were givving you suggestions as I still didn't see the whole vid when commenting, and there was a comment about waiting for "fixcore" 😭😭😭😭)
FEMTANYL MENTION‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ 🗣️🗣️WHAT THE FUCK IS A CALM BEAT🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️💥💥
i fucjign love femtnaylll andcnndwjjdnsjjjams
i call it femtanylcore lol
it's hardcore breaks with digital hardcore
@@elthomasdjfhdfsgdgjkdfgldsg I feel like the "edgyness" plays a big part in femtanyl's music, mainly just the lyrics, also idk, searched up "hardcore breaks with digital hardcore" and while they sounded similar, they didn't really give off the same "energy" as femtanyl for me
@bobua2137 well, Femtanyl sounds very similar to Machine Girl, in both sound and aggression I would say, and they're both the same genres (hardcore breaks and digital hardcore)
maybe it's because these genres can come in different ways and sounds, some more aggressive than others but yeah
A really great overview of what breakcore really is!! As who was one of the first breakcore artist is, iirc a video mentioned how an artist called Alec Empire was one of the notable producers that pushed the breakcore scene before venetian. Albeit I would say that vsnares did popularize the modern sound we hear today. Aside from that, i really love the section touching on fakecore lol + i also started ventruing into mashcore which is a rabbit hole im willingly falling deep into!!!
NO WAY I'VE SEEN YOU BEFORE WHAT
I love your music :D
Tysm for the feedback and kind words! Yeah a lot of people have commented about Alec Empire, I've listened to Alec before but I had no idea he was the first, so thank you, and all of the commenters for clarifying that for me! I'll probably add a disclaimer in the description of the video later lol :D
@twigplaysstuff No problem and THANK YOU, the songs you showed in the video introduced me to some really good breakcore!!!
U know what, its been a while since I find new breakcore artists that I like, I've been years stuck to Bye2, Rory in the early 20's (which funny enough, I always thought was an arbitrary year selection), Machine girl, Goreshit, Venetian snares and the usual [2 released songs from just a couple weeks ago] artists like Zzkillme, iera, Crxw (the one I'd reccomend the most out of the little ones for its similarity to Rory's music which is the one I'd recommend the most in general)...
Sure enough, breakcore is not the only thing that I like to listen to, but it's also definitely the one that motivates me the most to do stuff apart from rotting in front of my pc, and I think I've listened so much to the same artists over and over again that I got to a point in which I don't get this feeling out of it anymore. Maybe all the problem is that I just usually wait for songs to come at me instead of searching for them, but maybe if I do it it's because it works, like when this video appeared in my for u :).
But I digress, the point is, cool video essay man, I loved pretty much all the music u used to make it and Ima go and check the artists u recommended rn, also, I'd like to recommend some non-breakcore music that I think u'd like: Iyowa, some of DennokoP, some of Muship, Femtanyl, Awerewa, Metaroom and some of CheapeX, being this one the one i recommend the least.
As an artist myself, I really dont care about genre semantics, what matters more is who is innovating more, and who is trying their best to make something great. although i do like breakcore, the atmospheric dnb scene seems to be innovating much more than the modern breakcore scene, so that is what I’m more invested in
Yeah that's totally fair tbh
Atmospheric dnb is just more mainstream. Artists like sorry about my face, please be quiet, and tsundere violence record label are releasing stuff pretty often that advances crafts
@@tumultoustortellini eh, i checked em out and they didnt scratch my itch, the things that come to mind for me are more “like a paper plane” by 2 0 2 1, “se bueno” by turquoisedeath, “toybox” by nanoray, “dark blossom” by lexycat, and “metamorphose” by bye2, those really define modern innovation, for me
the modern breakcore scene is stuck in traditionalist/aborealist (reactionary) thinking thus lacking innovative capability
This was amazing, I hope you got the HIGHEST grade possible (also you nailed the neurodivergent part :). )
TYSM!!
Ultrakill brainroted me so hard that i can't hear a fast drum break or beat or simply an amen break with not imagining a derranged blue robot tossing coins rapidly
My favorite part of the breakcore community has to be furries. Lapfox, the quick brown fox, burning brain sound industries, Renard, 4lung, etc. They very rarely ever lay off on extreme beats and chaotic samples. A lot of samples in BBSI (burning brain sound industries) songs include a plethora of memes, in fact almost every song they make has a meme sample in it. One song by TQBF (the quick brown fox) even goes over 1000 BMP. You might have heard some of their songs in animation memes before as they tend to resonate with the furries of that community. This part of the community also tends to have other sub genres like speedcore sometimes. I personally love this side of breakcore/hardstyle and wish more people can check it out. Soundcloud is your best bet for finding all the songs. I would make a video about it myself but tbh it's just better for a person to listen to it and experience it for themselves and for them to discover more about this community. But if anybody wants recommendations, start with Act my Age by 4lung, brutal rhythm rider by TQBF, and color of the dress by Babe Fiends. (Sorry 4 the super long comment I love yapping about breakcore furries)
Yeah the furry community is super involved with breakcore, and although I'm not personally a furry, the breakcore produced by furries is typically super good! (Also yeah TQBF and Renard are super nice! I'm pretty sure they're operated by the same person, but I might be wrong)
@@twigplaysstuffthey are, lapfox, renard, and tqbf are the same person (Emma Essex)
Lemm (previously known as Mekuso) and Aquellex are really good too
@@twigplaysstuff yeah the whole lapfox scene is one person that's why most just say lapfox but it's impressive how they can all have different styles despite it being one person!
@@twigplaysstuffyes!! Theyre all made by the same artist, each alias for a different genre :)
shoebill mention? You're cultured. Try listening to sorry about my face, please be quiet, axtrmnt, and chinesemidiboard, they are all some great artists worth checking out in the scene.
edit: small correction on "fakecore": This actually blew up in 2019 and 2020, with sewerslvt leading the charge pretty much single-handedly, and other artists coming out of the woodwork to assist in pushing the style (sofțxoxo's, zenithlights, watering, salad, loli in early 20s (now rory in early 20s) and namii (now kyoumeni), are my personal picks, but the general soundcloud breakbeat artist community at large was responsible)
edit 2: You're missing a subtype (I know you said as much, just felt like filling in my knowledge, I hope this doesn't come off as dickish, if so, my bad): Depressive breakcore. The artists I said in my reccomendation list are all that (minus chinesemidiboard). It's characterized by harsher breaks, comparable to type b, but low or hidden sample amount. And lower frequencies ("sorry about my face -... and thoughts of suicide" and "please be quiet - cherophobia" are both good examples).
Finally the video assay we needed
the breaks are like your mind cycling through as many thoughts as it can, and it’s kind of relaxing
I’ve never thought of it that way 😮
i like you not only talking about what is and isnt breakcore very briefly, but a section about neurodivergent people and breakcore. i feel seen!!
my heart did 77 backflips when i heard riajuu in your outro, you better get a 100 on this project. >:(
AMEN TO THAT
0:12, my personal favorite way to describe is, although very simple: Metal on a blender
Glad you taked about the neurodiversity part of it, makes a lot of sense in the use we make of all that stuff.
Nice vid!
dude i love how you animate those little guys its so awesome
tysm lol
Pretty nice school project
Reizoko CJ and venetian snares were also my introduction but that was in like the late 2000s, I'm honestly surprised it still is for the newer generations tbh I thought it was the "fakecore" you mention being the main introduction, then from there they go back and find vsnares and the others. Anyway good vid, from one breakcore historian to another lol
ffffinally, actually good informative video with good examples songs, also you can seee, the video being made with passion by someone that has dived deep into the genre, ccoll video!
Brother... Hands down _the best_ video essay about the genre. You basically boiled down to a 20min vid a plethora of topics and discussions about the genre, its origin and subgenres without leaning too much on technicality or the stuff said on Wikipedia, it was an honest surprise to actually listen to somebody talking about something they ACTUALLY LISTEN TO and every. Single. Example. Was on fucking point.
Heck you even put riaijuu on the mix, i thought we were like...? 20 in the whole world? Who listens to them.
Now about the examples, i actually began listening to breakcore via Reizoko Cj and Venetian Snares too, my first ever breakcore song was a recommendation from 20...13? 2012? ( I cant remember) And it was ULTRAVIOLENT JUNGLIST by yours truly Venetian Snares, the first time i heard it i was like "what the? Its like the music i like in midnight club 3( it was Soundwall VIP by Dom & Roland) but its really aggressive and... Absurdly well made" and it was love at first sight.
Then a little after cirnoRHTL got recommended and i just became a hardcore fan of the genre, cirnoRHTL is just perfect.
My main artists are: Reizoko Cj (yup, still), Venetian snares (original, i know), NEKOPHILIAC (I... Like lolicore too), LHK, pencil, HAWAWA(cmon, bananafishEP was my first ever album downloaded, i still love it) and at last nyojikko.
I dont have a favorite between them, as everyone is a master on what they do (or did... Plase come back nyojikko)
Man... Just thanks for actually showing people what breakcore essentially is, and although the damage is pretty visible already, i guess its just hype that's going to die down just like the techno that was actually EDM that actually didn't exist shit (i still cant believe people actually said that Marshmellow was techno, fuck no, techno is fanon flowers, WAX. , 999999999, etc.)
Yooo lolicore mentioned.
This is so good for a school project because you actually get it! So many people have no idea what breakcore really is, this is a great video my man
Woah, this is one of the best youtube documentaries I saw, the amount of information you put in such a short time is shocking, another shocking thing is that I just found out that what I have been listening to, and what I produced was wrongly labeled as breakcore, and after watching this video there I have a dilema going on inside my head, what should this new genre be called?"Fakecore" just sounds unpleasant, and ambient jungle is misleading, I saw a comment suggesting a name atmospheric dnb/breakcore, and its honestly the best option. Thank you for such great video, and I hope you got the highest score out of your class.
fantastic video, about the adhd part i would also say as autistic that for me its like calming cause the impossibility to find a hook to remember something else, makes me stop from thinking about something that isn't relevant in that moment
I love seeing School Projects go viral
ngl, i’ve got to thank you for posting this video, as it helped me find the most delightful songs i have ever heard. before I almost didn’t have any information about breakcore, the only song i had known was Break This Breaking Point 2, and currently i have been listening to a bit of Vertigoaway (not sure if they do breakcore but just saying it sounds similar imo). but when you introduced glitchcore and played Terminal 11, i genuinely couldn’t stop listening to that clip you put of Reluctantly Accepting Temporary Overexhaustion, and i really have to thank you for giving me something so refreshing to listen to.
No problem! I'm so glad I could introduce you to Terminal 11. :) Btw, this video really demonstrates the amount of time and effort put into Terminal 11 tracks, they're all made with a software called a tracker which requires the user to input the time/pitch etc for each little bit: th-cam.com/video/AkmWKVX5Cdc/w-d-xo.html sandwich
I wouldn't spent so much time working on a school project and make it so long unless I would really want to
My first introduction to breakcore and adjacent genres was through Lauren's work, (specifically through animation memes lol) and I have been a sucker for this kind of music since. Thank you for more suggestions of music to listen to!
I would love if we had animation memes with breakcore in it. I would, but again like my previous comment, i have no idea how to animate whatsoever no matter how much i would like to.
Can't wait for Femtanyl
Glad to see people talking about Reizoko since he's the mashcore GOAT, idk what glitchcore is but the examples could personally be classed as drill and bass since both this glitchcore and drill and bass have an IDM sound with less of a focus on the hardcore part of breakcore and more focus on the break part of breakcore.
Either way really good video, hope the teacher graded you well after closing the tab as soon as they heard the first example :P
honestly the section on fakecore was great and honestly i might reconsider some of my tracks under those genres because they definitely ARENT breakcore. but knowing that they still are usually enjoyed by people who i used to point that towards
Can’t wait for brokencore
I love the audio Visualizers as the visuals. (I can word correctly, yes)
Imagine if no one heard that break and thought « Lemme chop that up » imagine all the music that wouldn’t exist
haha, good stuff, def getting an A. Also I recommend using pop filter to prevent plosives 👍👍
Yeah, if I ever end up making a video like this again I'll probably end up using a pop filter, ty!
@@twigplaysstuff good luck, and stay safe! ;)
I cannot wait for realcore
I'm so excited to see someone put this all to something that's comprehensive. I try explaining all this to people at
get looked at funny. breakcore is like another language to communicate in, Laura Les said it best in I wud nvrstop u, "u got me feeling like- into a hardcut to breakbeat."
breakcore organizes all that chaos into songs about a specific group of feelings to experience in a curated enviroment, and makes an artpiece out of it that you can show to your friends.
Probably weren't expecting a school project to blow up on YT, but the video essay lovers have arrived!
My only critique is your voice editing. You didn't remove any of the breathing sounds and certain syllables randomly peak the mic as you try to enunciate clearly. FL studio has an automatic remover if you need a uh, paid for legal copy. Cough cough.
Oh, it does? I'll be sure to use that (with my very legal and paid for copy of FL) in the future, I had no idea!
I thought breakcore was just Drum breaks? Also btw thank you for doing this I fuckn love this project. I'd like to see more depth on the art of these genres however I have severe misophonia to the point where disorganized tones cause me waves of physical discomfort, even though all I listen to is goreshit least anime themed tracks and fentanyl💀😭
I would like to share my thoughts on this genre with you because I've been hyperfixated on specific music and even though I don't produce any songs, I hella want to make some bangers to go with my own art when I get the chance to learn how to get the sources. (yes I draw, I also have over 30 incomplete ocs and 10 years of experience)
Hope to see more stuff like this. Otherwise, beautiful presentation.
Oh no way I have misophonia but for me it's just for chewing noises lol. If you wanna produce, I'd suggest using FL Studio trial edition, it's the best free DAW you could get other than LMMS. Anyways yeah, I'm so glad I could teach you about breakcore, and tysm for the kind words! If you wanna chat more on the genre, my username is twiiiiig on discord!
@@twigplaysstuff Hell yea, the only problem I have is that I don't have a computer, nor do I have a job yet (thanks to rich people), so I'm finna have to find a way to make death rave dnb on my Motorola 🤣😭
This is a common misconception and it has to do with how we understand the -core suffix. Nowadays in the internet it's being used to describe any kind of aesthetic, like cottage + core = cottagecore. But in breakcore's case, this suffix comes from _hardcore,_ a term used to describe all kinds of heavy music. Breakcore is, in its essence, breakbeat music taken to its extreme, with fast tempos, heavy distortion and intricate, chaotic choppage, as well as influence from other hardcore music styles like gabber and punk rock.
@@silverkip2992 I'm learning more through this than I am at school 💀
its femtanyl, fentanyl is a drug LOL
edit: if this sounds like im making fun of you, i dont intend that, i just think the typo or mispelling is funny
noo you forgot the OG breakcore scene prior to the post-2000s internet p2p breakcore scene, which developed alongside jungle and later DnB from breakbeat hardcore!! it's so over for you bro!
its so over 🥲
Cool video, however there's this one flaw that I would like to comment.
Venetian Snares althought is the most well known artist of the genre, didn't invent breakcore. Breakcore was created/pioneered in the mid-90s by Alec Empire from Atari Teenage Riot, who took influences from Jungle/DnB and Hardcore Techno. So yeah, there was breakcore before Vsnares even started producing it.
Some examples of this "early/old school breakcore" would be Christoph de Babalon, Shizuo, Bomb 20 and Alec himself.
But besides that, it's a nice video and it's great to see more people explaining what real breakcore is instead of "hahaha sewerslvt atmospheric anime dnb jungle!!!!!!!!11!11!". Hope you got a good grade for this project!
oh and btw where did you get the clip of gilbert gottfried saying "this is dancecore" LOL
Lmao I got the clip of gilbert from the Favicon Records (label owned by shoebill) Facebook, here ya go: facebook.com/reel/488426239216922
once i learn drums i'm going to learn the amen break and play it outside your window at night ❤️
also with the autism stuff you mentioned that makes a lotta sense, i haven't been able to put it into words but it totally sounds like how stimming feels for me, and it's definitely like perfect to stim to :]
This is a really well made video essay especially for a school project super duper underrated
my older brother makes breakcore music and i never really understood until this video, thanks :3
Yo what a amazing introduction into breakcore although I’m not a real breakcore fan I’m a Junglist I still respect the real breakcore community In my opinion fake core is anime drum and bass I think they call it breakcore to get more attention aka views and subscribers but other than that amazing video into the breakcore world
👊🏿🥁
i hope you got an A++
Flashcore is when you combine breakcore and glitch and idm and “wandering soundscapes” (so essentially either formless or very unpredictable song form) and sometimes it sounds futuristic and similar to breakcore and then you have qebrus and /f ( she’s sometimes kinda flashcore) type flashcore which is incomprehensible and doesn’t feel human
Xanopticon is the closest thing to flashcore that’s kinda like breakcore
Some glitchcore is called flashcore by mistake even though they’re kiiinda similar but flashcore comes from la peste and takes heavy inspiration from autechre
And flashcore is much more focused on building an atmosphere than being aggressive. It can be very aggressive at times but it’s like a bubbling ambient soundscape but every bubble is a weird sound
this is great! really good work hope you got a A.
i love you
Extratone is my adhd music ❤❤❤
Extratone is great :D
same
Great job at making this video! Glad to have learned something new while watching this!!
(sorry for the long comment but I am just passionate lol)
Nice video man, the editing is amazing and the whole thing was entertaining throughout, tho I have some criticism. First I feel like you kinda just skipped over the origin of the genre, tho it's understanable since it's kinda really disconected from Australia to Europe, tho you can at least mension, Artists like "Alec Empire" from Germany as the creator of the first breakcore album "the Destroyer". Venetian Snares is not so "one of the first artists" but more of the pioneer of the genre pushing it to new limits with inovation and genre mixing a good example you showed was "Hajnal"(good taste). Also Thanks for talking about Reizoko Cj, He deserves so much more love... But as my last criticism abou the Mashcore Section and calling "type A" "Shoebill Mashcore" kinda comes out as if you're framing it like shoebill invented (I don't belive that was your intention) but It might get people confused Artists like "Annoying Ringtone" (Check him out if you haven't heard his stuff) and "DJKurara" for example made music really REALLY similar to Shoebill's way before he came onto the sciene. For "type B" it's fair since Reizoko's style is so unique some people and artist's cathecorize it as it's own subgenre (reizokocore).
That's it for my criticism Really good video, much love :)
But also I want to recommed you check out the Polish breakcore sciene and artists like "Loffciamcore" he created a new mashcore subgenre (not really new lol it's like 10 to 11 years old lol) called "Polcore" which is really Reizoko Cj adjacent and it's really comedic in nature.
Here's a really fun example tho that's not Loffciamcore lol: th-cam.com/video/zydTFkmo6C4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=THMJy5uf628az146
Ah, yeah, I didn't realize that calling shoebill "type A" would make it seem like shoeb invented it, but in retrospect it does kinda seem like that, my bad lol. Also yeah Annoying Ringtone and DJKurara did do a lot of stuff similar to Shoebill's style before shoeb was producing, Shoebill is just my personal fav lul, I would have gotten deeper into the history of all of the subgenres/Alec Empire n stuff but I was on a pretty tight time limit cos' of the whole school project thing yknow. Oh also Polcore is bangin' :D
Anyways yeah tysm for the awesome comment and kind words :))
@@twigplaysstuff It's always good to see shoebill rep. Had to import his album from canada to eastern europe lol. my personal favourite is DjKurara tho
yea it's important to note that my sound is very much just a spectrum of influences including that of annoying ringtone and djkurara, plus foxdye, cardopusher and renard etc etc but with the style being heavily focused on that schmaltzy sound u hear from those guys, but I've been trying to implement more idm influences lately like Ruby my dear and just wanting to experiment with my sound more, it's just super hard and I've been trying to focus on other creative work for a while
thank you for the mention and I'm sorry ur teacher had to put up with hearing my weird shit, take it easy
@@Shoebill First of all: HI SHOEBILL! Your music has kept me alive for the past 2 years, thank you. you're genuinely my fav artist/producer, tied with vsnares.
Second of all: yeah, the new idm stuff in your music is awesome! it only sounds faintly similar to your older stuff imo, but that's fine by me, it's still super super nice! and ofc, i saw that you were on a hiatus on soundcloud, take all the time you need! you're welcome for the mention, i just genuinely love your music and i wanna share it with others! and don't apologize for my teacher, i'm sure he loved your stuff. you take it easy as well, ty for watching my video, and ty for the comment! :))
i feel like folks always forget abt schizophrenia when it comes to discussions of neurodivergence
this video is amazing. i have no words.
Tysm!
The microphone quality seemed sorta harsh and a little painful at my normal listening volume, but I stayed for the quality information and your good taste in the various genres mentioned. You should be proud and uh hope you got a good grade :3
Yeah, some of my settings in OBS got messed up when I recorded this idk why lol. Tysm for the kind words! I'll update the description when I find out what grade I get lol :3
Pretty nice video!
Although it bugs me a bit that you only mentionned tiktok as the one at fault because while they did help misappropriate the term, i think this whole mislabeling shenanigans started when TH-cam algorithm decided to bring Sewerslvt into popularity, who by coincidence calls their stuff breakcore when it's actually atmospheric DnB back at around 2019-2022. (Atleast i think that's what happened)
Hope you get good grades for this!
Oh, yeah true, it was kinda the youtube algo's fault for pushing Sewerslvt. I never thought of that lmao! Ty for the kind words :))
based minimeters user
I LOVE SHOEBILL!!!!!! AND I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!!!!!
I'd say Alec empire broadly invented breakcore in '93 / '94. Venetian Snares popularized a drill & bass / IDM influenced subgenre which came to redefine the genre as a whole when he got super popular.
At the end of the day... You end up saying "oh that's not breakcore! That's a new style of 90's jazzy drum and bass mixed with liquid drum and bass production!" Just like how some 90s r4ver nerd would get mad at you for calling vsnares breakcore when he's "clearly a drill and bass producer who incorporates hardcore rave influences into his music"
Oops I'm not saying you said that btw Im making a hypothetical.
No idea but I’m starting to make it with no idea of what I’m doing :/
if this was a school project, WHERE ARE THE CITED SOURCES??????
little rough around the edges video essay, but still pretty good
Another subgenre to go over would be raggacore which is ragga jungle influenced breakcore bong-ra is a big example of this style
i love brakecore
so well made!
i should try breakcore some day
ohhhh so that's why i fall asleep while listening to ultrakill
Don't be shy homie, share your playlist
Lmao I have like 30, I'll try to whip up a playlist of my all time favs real quick! (It may take me a bit as I have a lot on my schedule at the moment)
pro dx‘ed autistic person here. (possibly ADHD too) breakcore goes hand in hand with my neurodivergence
great video.
proud that reizoko cj is the same natinality as me. i listened thousands of hours of him.
and i'm also very concerned about the "fakecore" problem. to the point that i made my own educational mix.
how did your school react to this? just very curious.
My school was pretty chill with it, it's not like I got the BEST possible grade but it was passing lol!
love this vid
Awsome video, thanks
Yo, I even have Rossz Csillag Alatt Született on CD, it wasn't exactly cheap
Btw fucking love Terminal 11
Whats the song in the outro?
Magical Girl Puke-tan! - Riajuu
th-cam.com/video/oEw0iq2__KQ/w-d-xo.html
Amenpunk? I didn't know that song atsuo made on works spawned a whole microgenre lol
Yeah, it's not a really large subgenre (yet) but it definitely is it's own thing
what grade you got on this?
ngl probably a F or 0% :/
Sick video
what the flip
if the song lacks a core that is broken then it's not breakcore
good video
oh hi temma, your music is awesome :)
breakcore cured my dyslexia and autism , fr tho good video
Where in the god does Heaven Pierce Her's music fit in here? Glitch core?
If you haven't heard of him, listen to "Chaos" and then "Order".
Hey, how did you animate those little dudes? I remember a specific tool/website doing something similar, but if you did it on your own, then wow! It looks really really cool
I used shake art, here ya go! studionokoi.itch.io/shake-art-deluxe
@@twigplaysstuff Thank you!!
1:11 in this Vidi-
Goated video ngl
if you want more recommendations for breakcore artists I recommend xanopticon, rotator, i broke my robot, datach'i, bong ra, mike paradinas, and the distant arrays compilation series.
xanopticon and datach'i are my favorite of the 2, xano's drum programming is unlike anything i've ever heard in my life(I recommend his album "Liminal Space" and EP "Meme Mage", and datach'is earlier works(We Are Always Well Thank You and Mmale and Ffemale are some of his best works)
I recently got into xanopticon and mike paradinas is a classic, ty for the recommendations!!
not gonna lie i enjoy "fakecore" more because it's way easier to listen to than traditional breakcore. plus the core of the music is still made up of breaks, so technically it's break-core ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Although it lacks chaos
As a producer who experiments with both Jungle and Breakcore, it's nice to see somebody finally point out how TikTok ruined the media's perception of Breakcore.
It’s interesting to see (/hear) what music is to other’s ears.
Traditional music is all about creating these very artistic, methodical melodies. While break core is more so an art of destruction, a cacophony of ruins with an artist’s touch.
I still fucking hate it but I can say I watched right ‘til 21’30. Cool video
good vid btw
i call breakcore rhythm game music
Can't wait for garncore
