Merka chats to I Like Music


ILM: Chew The Fat is the longest running breaks night in the world. What do you think makes a top breaks night and a top breaks tune?

Merka: A top breaks night is usually the people, usually the crowd. That's the thing I like about breaks parties, that you always get a really nice crowd and they are always willing to dance. There is no chin scratching or hovering in the corner until there is the one track they like. People are eager to enjoy themselves and that is really important, I think the DJ's feed off that a lot. I think it also feeds into the tunes as well. You definitely get that 'have a good time' feel with breaks. That is what it is all about. My friend says that it is a vibe not a sound and I don't think that could be more true. It doesn't really matter what it is. It doesn't have to have a certain eighties synth or certain people will only like a track with vocals, it doesn't really matter as long as people like it, it sounds good and they can have fun. It is kind of a social thing. It is not as introverted as some of the styles. It is about sharing music with people, sharing a good time and remembering the night and looking out for the next one. It's really good. It's always like that. Always rolling on to the next time.
