DJ Kool Herc's breaks style involved playing the same record on two turntables and playing the break repeatedly, alternating between the two records.
History 1970s-1980s: Classic breaks and hip hop production īeginning in 1973 and continuing through the late 1970s and early 1980s, hip hop turntablists, such as DJ Kool Herc began using several funk breaks in a row, using drum breaks from jazz-funk tracks such as James Brown's " Funky Drummer" and The Winstons' "Amen Brother", to form the rhythmic base for hip hop songs. The origin of the word "breakbeat" is the fact that the drum loops that were sampled occurred during a " break" in the music - for example the Amen break (a drum solo from " Amen, Brother" by The Winstons) or the Think Break (from " Think (About It)" by Lyn Collins).
