About Digital Breaks Foundation

Matt Tanner and Ben Kay were brought together when Matt booked Ben (AKA Virtua) to perform his DMC scratch set at the New Years Eve party he was co-promoting at Londons Fluid Bar in 2002/3. Ben's quality scratching to an eclectic mix of beats and breaks was an excellent alternative to what was fundamentally a house night. Although their roots lay in different ends of the dance music spectrum (Matt: house and progressive / Ben: drum 'n' bass), their love of the nu-skool breaks sound became the driving force behind the birth of Digital Breaks Foundation. After setting to work in the Studio early in 2003, they began bringing the house, progressive and drum 'n' bass influences they knew so well into their breaks productions. After a number of white label releases, they finally arrived with their first full release at their current home Boombox Records. The Digital Breaks style fuses heavy basslines with fast filter sweeps to create groovy, rolling basslines with edgy acidic synths. This resulted in their debut single One Inch Punch / Ultimate Indecision gaining immediate support from Annie Nightingale, Anthony Pappa, Nitro and Ricky Stone among others. After working on various projects including a breaks remix of Slackers 1996 house classic Scared, and a further remix of fellow label co-horts Sifter and Adan's new track Heyflicker, the DBF boys are now about to drop with their new single Way Back which is set to put them firmly on the breaks map.
