[@pikpik42]

The fact that the beat is looped changed everything. The big composition, but basic endless groove and creativity.

[@KappaDaKappa]

Sequencer/Sampler/Drum machines was also a big step, instead of manually looping vinyls

[@DigitalOdyssey3001]

Classic 80's Hip-Hop. This beat is being brought back by a DJ with scratches and perfect timing. No digital loop machines or samplers. OG elements of Hip-Hop!!!

[@ytpremium7649]

At age 11 I was friends with a Puerto Rican kid named Kenny who lived in Ravenwood projects in Queens I met Kenny in church and would go to his apartment on Sundays for the best ham and swiss sandwiches (made by his beautiful grandmother) and to watch TV One Sunday as I'm sitting in the living room Kenny looks out the window and starts yelling for me to come check out his friend. There was a skinny dude about 5'8" in the children's play area with a bandana on, wearing stylish gym clothes and Adidas. He was practicing his dance routines and doing windmills ...it was his friend Corey Montalvo aka ICEY ICE! We went nuts screaming at what we were witnessing. It's as though Superman was outside our window. Corey was the greatest show on earth for us kids After that I decided to be a breakdancer and even tried to join Kenny's crew a year later The next time I saw Corey was I believe in 1985 on TV breakdancing for president Ronald Reagan in his inauguration. He had made it into the NYC BREAKERS. The greatest breakdance crew in history, although Rock Steady Crew was more famous

This is awesome, makes me real nostalgic. When this music and breakdancing were a thing in the early 1980s, I was still in elementary school. On the weekends or late afternoon or early evenings on the weekdays, older kids or young adults would gather at our school's playground. Break out the boomboxes, flattened out cardboard boxes, and the guys would just be there dancing off. I used to love watching them. The moves, the handoffs, the posing LOL I still love it!

[@renren3662]

A D B-Boying is constantly evolving and B-Boys are getting better and better with each generation. It started in the early 1970s with basic moves. Backspins back then was the TOP move. By the early to mid 80s, the windmill became the top move. Today, I guess it would be “flares” maybe?
