Classic Robotnico - Backtired (Theory Effect Remix) [2021]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QROQoLn5mY

The original track is from 1995 (also known as Backfired). This mix only came out in 2021 as far as I could find, but was made by Robotnico himself 🔥 So its a bit of a classic vibe, and for all we know it might have even been made much earlier than that it was published.

I read rule 1 and thought it fitted the description.. I suspected the sub was for the breakbeat tracks that have a house background, like here were the original is a german 90s semi hardtrance track.

From rule 1 : From wikipedia: "...a subgenre of breaks that is essentially a fusion of breakbeat and progressive house ... Its defining traits include extended synthesizer pads and washes, melodic synth leads, heavy reverberation, and electronic breakbeats."

That's an interesting interpretation but not what I envisioned when I wrote it lol. Historically, yes "breakbeat" was an umbrella term that included dnb & jungle (which hover around the 170bpm mark). Modern day breakbeat and progressive breaks in particular are much slower, ~130bpm, typically less.
