I just got two numark TTX's and i was wondering if anybody here had any suggestions as to which breaks / scratch records i should cop and where. I already know im definately copping video game breaks 1 & 2 cuz those are just plain ill but aside from that i have no idea ... thanks - Dro

Damn I haven't bought scratch break records in a long time but you can't go wrong with anything from the Dirtstyle series.

*Edit:DJ Rectangle's are ok but not the best for the "feel" of the vinyl. Too slippery for me.

Paul Nice has NICE drum loops on his records.

There's too many others to name, but be careful with today's scratch break records, it's a lot of stuff that's been on numerous records already. Stick with the older ones (the ones I mentioned plus others from that time period).

DJ rectangle, mostly very good. Also check you get heavy records, not to thin and check if the grooves arent too close to another.

i haven't been checking out the new releases... but from the old ones everything from rectangle is pretty good... specially if you are interested in dj battling and stuff... and the first record that you gonna have to get from dirtystyle should be the Hee Haw Breaks

I found that too my rectangles seem to have a mind of their own ! Also i agree with dirtstyle and super duck breaks but id add super seal records too that too they are dope imo !
