Kut Above The Rest
Text by Len Iima (HigherFrequency)
Breakspoll 2007 has come and gone. This event took place on February 22nd at the world renowned Fabric London, and this year Krafty Kuts aka Martin Reeves took home top prize for his album "Freakshow". Krafty Kuts also won Best DJ, which he has won three years consecutively as well as Outstanding Contribution.
The biggest surprise may have been Rogue Element winning Best Producer, beating out Stanton Warriors. Although it wasn’t all bad for the Warriors because they walked away with Best Compilation for their Fabriclive mix.
While some critics claim that Breaks are fading out, with cutting edge artist like these, and various collaborations from a wide range of artists and styles, Breaks seem to be right in the groove.
