RyanMichael:

It’s a shot-for-shot recreation of the movie trailer but set in the world of Super Mario Brothers, so it can’t possibly spoil the real movie for you.

Thanks for taking my question seriously, Ryan. As I am an ardent (read: anal) avoider of movie trailers it would have been spoiler enough.

When you go to the movies how do you avoid trailers? Do you send your date in and have her text you when it’s safe to go in?

Bah. That’s not breakcore. This is breakcore. Not so much a video, but the tune has a special place in my heart.

This is long, no way to know it wasn’t just made up, and maybe not laugh out loud funny. But I got a good laugh around 6:21.

Emails of a girlfriend who doesn’t realize her boyfriend went to Europe for two weeks.

Hardcore beat = instant headache.

Still, thanks for sharing. It’s always nice to see what genres I don’t follow are up to.

ouch, I get the impression this is liked by European Amiga fans.
Personally, I’ll take breakbeat over that any day.
example: this :D
EDIT2: Probably doesn’t hold up by today’s standards, but Jesus on E was a revelation back in '93

So what’s the theory there? What defines “breakcore?” I’m not a fan of anything I heard, but I fully respect others’ rights to their tastes.

Wow… that’s interesting. I like how it started and some parts in between.

Thanks for that one. I got the same laugh, same place.

This is probably posted… but just in case

Do You Wanna Date my Avatar

…and yeah. Got its own thread elsewhere!
…Oh! And I’ve learnt about the Amen Break tonight - fascinating. And I like dub/reggae too… I should know that :)
…and the Jesus E sample at the start is Oldfield’s Ommadawn. Flashbaacccks :)

Second viewing, huh? What tipped you off? That it’s utterly preposterous or that it was posted by a viral advertising site?
