    I'm also at http://www.nuskoolbreaks.co.uk

    Much the same structure as here (General, Promotion, Production.... etc) but for Breaks. Many big breaks producers post there.. much the same as several big techno names post here. The production form is quite lively and being a breaks producer myself (as well as techno).. I quite like the site.

    They also have a radio station that you should check out Mark (and other board opps)
    . It is put on my the site users. People book weekly shows and the stream jumps around from studio to studio. Where ever that person is located is where the steam originates for that hour or 2. It's only off-air where there is nobody signed up to do a show. The site opps also take the station stream into the many of the bigger parties around the UK to broadcast live! This concept could absolutely 100% work on this site. No question.. Techno needs an equivalent!!!

    Overall the breaks community is growing.. and this site is at the center. I think allot of techno producers should stand up and take notice of whats happening in breaks community because its working right now. The community is strong and sound is really getting deep and dark. Shitty so called 'funky breaks' are gone and nuskool breaks with tracks incorporating real bass and other live instruments with tons of analog synthesis are large and in charge. Collaborations are plentiful... and the parties are growing in size. (I've been meaning to make a whole separate post out of this.)

    I actually really heavily looked into this. BUt then I got to doing my show about 6 months ago and to be honest, totally forgot about it. You're totally right, it's a brilliant, brilliant way to keep the community focused and devoted to the cause. I must try to find time to sort this out... Thanks mate :)

    I was going to post a thread like this, but thought it'd be out of place, so thanks for taking the initiative Mark :)
