Hello everyone,

There’s a rhythm that I like but I’m not all too familiar with its name. Here are some examples:

It could be that they’re not related at all and I just like hearing double time, but I think I’ve heard the term DnB before, but I’ve never had it properly defined. Thanks!

These are all fast breakbeat rhythms. Drum and bass music is generally broken beats (as in not 4-to-the-floor) in 160-200 bpm tempo range with emphasis on drum and bass elements. There are a lot of subgenres with specific nuances.

Haha I figured it’d be more conplicated than I thought

How are broken beats different from normal beats in percussion? Is it like stopping the snare from ringing so it gives that bare sort of sound?

I would say the first beat is jungle, the second is drum’n’bass and the third some kind of breakbeat. They are all kind of similar. I found this video that might explain it better than me.

Wow, thanks! That video was really great, I do kinda like the breakcore sound, hope it doesn’t stay a meme genre (or as he says in the video) :)

Rules (interactive)

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
