Although the term "breakdance" is used to refer to the dance in popular culture, "b-boying" and "breaking" were the original terms and are preferred by the majority of the pioneers. The media promoted the art form as "breakdancing", the term by which it came to be known. The obvious connection of the term "breaking" is the word "breakbeat". DJ Kool Herc has commented that the term "breaking" was 1970s slang for "getting excited", "acting energetically" or "causing a disturbance". Beginning with DJ Kool Herc, Bronx-based DJs would take the rhythmic breakdown sections (also known as the "breaks") of dance records and prolong them by looping them. This provided a rhythmic base that allowed dancers to display their skills for the duration of the break. This led to the first turn-based dance competitions between two individuals or dance crews judged with respect to creativity, skill, and musicality. These battles occurred in cyphers—circles of people gathered around the breakers.

Yo, nice one for checking out the mix mate. Was a lot of fun putting these choons together, lots of cool remixes with a bit of old and new and always with familiar beats and sounds. Really enjoyed your latest mix Feeva, I find off the cuff mixes are always more fun. Anyways, hope all is well and you're enjoying the weekend :-)
what a great breakology session Raw! Majestic!
My gratitude as always Attila, I hope you are well my friend. I see you have a mix for me to listen to. I have to say I really like the look of your track list, I own nearly all the tracks you've used. Together with your mixing skills I know it's going to be very good. As soon as I get the chance I will be checking it out. Thanks again :-)
Beside your strong passion for trance that Im not into, I already saw we share taste and background in your SSS session. After listening to this excellent b boy compendium no wonder you are familiar with my last tracklist, obviously your knowledge in hip hop (that I like but Im surely not an expert) is deep and wide as trance. This makes me happy, on the other hand not discoveries for you, i hope you can enjoy the classics one time more in the way I packed. Cheers mate.
Superb set Raw, loved hearing all these, especially Ease back and This is a journey - so many good memories! Also noticed I missed an Eclectic selection, will be on that next couple of days. Hope you had a top weekend 👊
Cheers mate, appreciate you droppping by. Hope all is good :-)
