80's Rap Special Pt 2
Rarely do Skeg, Steeve The Sleeve and J Squared get to record a show together these days, its got to be something special to link them up and they cant resist the lure of an 80's Rap Show.
They had such a good time recording the first part of this series of shows so they went back home, dug deep in the crates and pulled together some of the best hip hop releases of the 80's for Part 2... nice chunks of wax that hadn't been pulled out of their sleeves for a while... from 808 heavy beats thru early sampling to full blown epics this is how it was back in the day...ENJOY! |

| Diggin In The Crates March 2013 |
| |
| Skeg dug in his stacks of wax once more to pull out a load of stuff that is certifiably dope but doesn't get played much down the Breakin Bread club. This is the quality stuff that can lounge at the back of a record collection for years but should never be forgotten. From some strange beats via some unknown underground hip hop to a classic funk drum break via some new school latin and also stopping off for a bit of disco action and a cheeky bit of house Skeg takes you on a journey there and back again. Enjoy people... |

| Vintage Sounds New Pressings |
| |
| Who doesn't love a bit of 7" vinyl? We certainly do and we buy far too many of them. Skeg built a new 7"s shelf lately and realised there was loads of stuff pressed in the last few months that hadn't been spun on the show. So what you've got here is the best Soul, Funk, R&B and Hip Hop thats had some lovely label press it up on vinyl. In this digital age all the labels still putting out 7's deserve a big shout! Props to all the people buying vinyl and keeping the art of putting a record on the decks alive! Support... |

Kazahaya - Soul on Japan
Kazahaya is Breakin Bread's Japanese beatmaker with that classic boom bap sound. He's also a collector of soul, funk, jazz and hip hop vinyl with numerous mix CDs to his name.
We first heard his productions when he was looking for distribution in Europe and we were blown away by his beats....they weren't your standard new school beats, nor were they your throwback to the golden era copycat beats. |
| |
|
| |
Kaza has his own style of beats with soul, they vibrate with passion and swing with finesse. He has gone on to release a number of his own productions on Breakin Bread wax and he has opened us up to a whole world of Japanese beats.
To celebrate his latest release he has put together a podcast of his favourite Japanese beats. This isn't a mix of soul, funk and jazz, its a mix of beats with soul, funk and jazz. Spot the samples...

Diggin In The Crates October 2012
Skeg gets busy in his crates once again after moving house and discovering a few long lost recesses of his record collection. This as far from genre specific as you can get as Skeg goes from disco to soul to cut n paste via a mash up or two and some bad ass beatsy numbers.
This sums up Breakin Bread, a little bit of everything in the pot and the final result comes out funky and then some! ENJOY! |

Breakin Bread October 2012

VINTAGE STYLES - Breakin Bread At The Blues Kitchen
We've been asked alot recently to post up a mix of the sort of stuff we play at our residency at The Blues Kitchen in Camden Town London so here you go.
We dont play much hip hop based music down there as it doesnt fit the crowd so this is a selection of the sounds you'll hear....vintage music all the way. Soul, Funk, Jazz, Latin and Jukebox Tittyshakin R&B is what we fitted on this mix.
We also drop some b-boy breaks and disco down there and the combo is enough to fill the dancefloor every time! For info on our next nights check here
If you ever make it to London, we hope to see you on the floor!

80's Rap Special
The Breakin Bread posse all got together in the place to be for this 80's rap special cos this is where we're from and when we first got into the hip hop that led us to start diggin all the funk, soul, disco, breaks, beats and all that dope stuff.
When we did get together we realised there was way too much decent hip hop from that decade to fit into a 2 hour show……..so lets call this part 1! Its all hip hop but in this era you can hear the soul, funk and disco tearing thru before the drum machines took over and the beats got harder and harder! Proper old school bigness. ENJOY! |

The Edenheight Selection
Edenheight celebrate the release of their second single on wax with a podcast where they get deep with the selections. Some of the music they like and love alongside a couple of their own productions.
Edenheight are a deep-groovin' and original outfit with a soulful urban sound. Forged in Bristol, their list of influences favour more percussive styles including Afro, Funk, Hip Hop + Dub, and as such dance-ability is a precedent. This standard owes as much to an evolution in the UK’s underground live scene as to their appreciation of high energy musicianship and production.

Breakin Bread May 2012
Steve the Sleeve and Jsquared are back with two hours of the funkiest fun you'll find all month. The lads mourn the passing of MCA and Donald "Duck" Dunn
as well as dropping some unlikely record of the month contenders from some unlikely sources.
Some of the best new music to come out this month, some break
to the beat, some edits and even some vinyl - it's all there!
Para - Like Moths
Para decided to do this mix after a night of watching Television , Program after program of complete irrelevant Nonsense sandwhiched between advert after advert trying thier best to sell me something we really don't need. He turned off the TV and started working on this mix.
He was initially going to make this a complete Instrumental mix but ended up dropping the odd Vocal track in there too. It's a little darker than his usual mixes but gave him the opportunity to include tracks that we really like listening to.
It's a non stop continuous 60min mix and we are giving it away for free so enjoy. Para has been putting out mix CD's since the late 90's, he joined the Breakin Bread stable in 2007 and has put out a few 7"s a couple of mix CDs and his debut album.
