Check out the future face of breakbeat culture at this year's Breakspoll

Breaks is in a pretty exciting place at the moment. The scene has definitely dipped back underground, but there's an incredibly impressive new generation of producers and DJs coming through at a frightening rate. We're talking about acts like Hungary's 9B0, Farace and Left/Right from the States, as well as thisisbreaks.com's Future Five tips for the top: BSD, Eshericks, Karton, Gella and LuQas, who you can read more about here.

Many of the above will be playing at this year's Breakspoll event at London's Fabric nightclub on February 25, the annual celebration of all things breakbeat, which sees thousands vote for their favourite acts. The poll is the only international breaks awards around, and the night itself is always an apex of fantastic music, electric vibes and hugely up for it crowds.

Also on the bill this year are Future Funk Squad, who will surely be gunning for the best album award, booty breaks kings Deekline and the Beat Assassins, as well as some of the bigger names in breaks from years gone by, such as Krafty Kuts, Shut Up and Dance and Elite Force. We can't recommend enough that you get yourselves down to Fabric, and to whet your appetites for what will be an awesome night, here are a couple of mixes from some of the acts involved.
