possibly the most used and sampled breakbeat of all time. comes from the winston brothers' "amen brother" used mainly in drum 'n' bass, jungle, even some hip hop. chances are, if you listen to dnb, then you've heard it at least once.
the amen break is cool because it is so heavily compressed and it doesn't sound like banging on a tin can when you speed it up.

Get the amen break mug.religion is the enemy of God. that may have sounded a bit weird, but I define religion as the traditions and rituals (which are often times unessecary) that surround a particular beleif. I personally consider Catholosism to be a religion because they do many activities that are not outlined in the Bible. Religion is a distraction from God.
athiest: are you religious?
guy in question: well, that depends on what you mean by religion. If i say, 'yes' then i become subject to much belittling. If i say no, it would seem as if i do not beleive in god. I'm in a rut!

Get the neopolitan mug.if you happen to be an electronics student in high school and you can't stand the music they play on the bus, find a schematic for a tunable FM transmitter. then when you get on the bus, plug in your cd player and tune it to the frequency of the station the driver is playing! hopefully your signal will be strong enough to overcome the other one coming in. It great to see the looks on other peoples faces when all of the sudden a bill cosby comedy routine comes in over 50 cent hahaha

Get the frequency fight mug.short for drum 'n' bass. a style of electronica that incorporates fast tempos (150~180 bpm) syncopated breakbeats, and a heavy bassline. can incorporate various styles of other music; jazz, funk, hip-hop, are the most common. Sometimes called the 'black man's techno'. often times the word is used interchangibly with jungle, but a lot of people think that jungle and dnb are different. sub-genres include ambient dnb, techstep, 2-step, darkstep, etc. a man named roni size, who isn't that popular now, basically started the whole style of music. its cool.
