THE BREAKFASTAZ (UK).
Undoubtedly the biggest hard breaks act in the world today, these guys have set the breaks world on fire recently with bomb after bomb on every big breaks label worth listening to.
We are honored to have them playing at Gimme during their first ever Australian tour.
Here’s some info.........
With over 17 successful releases and remixes on respected breaks labels such as Passenger and Mob in little over 12 months, their offerings have received support and heavy rotation from scene stalwarts such as the Freestylers, Meat Katie, Aquasky, Krafty Kuts, Plump DJs, Deekline, Tayo, Ali B and even catching the ear of Seb Fontaine, highlighting the enormous impact they’ve had on the scene in such a short period of time.
To back up their releases, the guys have been DJing everywhere from London to Spain to the United States and were also invited to do guest shows and interviews on Radio 1 (Annie Nightingale), Xfm (Eddie Temple-Morris) and Kiss 100 (Tayo), accompanying their weekly shows on Pyrotechnic Radio (Fridays 3-5PM GMT - www.pyrotechnicradio.com) and on Breaks FM (Saturdays 6-8pmPM GMT - www.breaksfm.com).
Their hard work is already being recognised, with the guys being featured on the front cover of IDJ’s ‘Players Of The Year 2004’ December edition and recently winning Best Breakthrough Act at the Breakspoll World Breakbeat Awards 2005, as well as being nominated for Best Producers too.
The future is also looking bright for The Breakfastaz with imminent releases on Against The Grain and an album project looming large.
What the press say............
‘…there is no hotter act right now in the Breakbeat scene and considering how good everyone’s become lately, that really is saying something.’ - DJ Mag, April ‘04
‘The future of UK dance music is safe if the hands of these 3 West London boys!’ – Eddy Temple-Morris, XFM, Jan ‘05
‘With pinpoint dance-floor targeting and rough ’n’ tough production, The Breakfastaz have quickly become breakbeat hot property…’ – Knowledge, July ‘04
‘…The Breakfastaz fire the warning shots of this mobs arrival into the breakbeat premier league…’ – Knowledge, August ‘04
‘Although it’s been a good year for breaks generally, there’s been little in the way of shit-hot new talent coming through. There has, however, been one new name on the breaks circuit that will forever be connected with 2004; The Breakfastaz.’ – IDJ, December ‘04

With Local support from Little Evil, Guyno, Obliveus, Shane Ford and MC Dr Sponk in the main room, and Ferris and Ben Stacey in the side room, this is looking to be one of the most exciting and unique nights of Breakbeat mayhem Melbourne has yet seen.
