Dusted Breaks Records, UK Labels

Dusted Breaks Records, Portsmouth UK

Dusted Breaks was born in Portsmouth in early 2002, when Lee & Mark Martin, John Lewis, Kevin Brown & Jason Mullineaux came up with a cunning plan to flood a predominantly hard dance city with a much needed injection of flavour, in the form of Breakbeat.

Dusted Breaks started off in small clubs in and around Portsmouth very quickly upgraded their venue to the unique South Parade Pier. Whilst holding breaks parties in this unique venue in the sea, they brought such amazing guests along never before seen anywhere near Portsmouth, such Lee Coombs Records, Lot49 Top dog Meat Katie, and (then just ripe on the scene) DJ Hyper from Kilowatt Recordings for his Wired album tour.

Having such major names down to party with us was always gonna blow some brains out, and nobody let us down. Early 2009 they made the transition from club night to record label, and Dusted Breaks Records was born. Having 11 releases under their belt by September of that year, they were getting major support across the international breaks scene, and have seen some impressive reviews in Mixmag, DJ and iDJ to name a few.

Dusted Breaks have brought us some firing tracks from names like IITone, Ways & Means, BreakzHead, Mobius, Paul Lyman and seen remixes from the likes of Mr No Hands, Ben & Lex, Eshericks, Quadrat Beat, Cut La Roc, Andrea Lai, 10Rapid to name but a few and Elite Force saw it right to do his own re-edit of Break Through by Paul Lyman and took it on his Australian tour, and also commissioned this work for a forthcoming release on Dusted Breaks.

Their artist roster sees names from all over the globe – Russia, Italy, Latvia ,UK, US and many more. They also hold a residency on the mighty iBreaks Radio where they host a twice monthly session showcasing new stuff. The Dusted Breaks style has no bounds, and the vetting process for tunes is of a very high standard indeed.

2009 was an amazing debut year for Dusted Breaks and all the hard work paid off for them in February of 2010 when they were nominated, and crowned winners of the ‘Best New Label’ award at the international Breakbeat awards ‘Breakspoll’ .
