The Breakfastaz were a triumvirate of breakbeat maestros, ascending to the forefront of the UK breaks scene in the early 2000s. Comprised of producers and DJs Mark Ford, Lee Rous, and Dean Meredith, their sound encapsulated the dynamism of breakbeat, studded with fierce basslines, razor-sharp breaks, and an energy that unified dance floors. They made a significant impact in the breaks community with their tightly produced tracks, which managed to encompass not just the tougher edge of breaks but also offered a melodic and at times atmospheric aesthetic.

Their contribution to the genre includes a string of pulsating tracks that showcased their production prowess and ability to galvanize the club-going crowd. Singles like "Phonk You" demonstrated their skill in crafting infectious rhythmic hooks, while "Green Light" and "The Pressure" were emblematic of their ability to merge raw energy with compelling grooves. Not just content with studio work, The Breakfastaz were known for their electrifying live performances, bringing the full force of their sound to venues across the UK and beyond. Although their activity as a group has waned, the legacy of The Breakfastaz lives on in the breakbeat pantheon, resonating through subsequent generations of breaks artists and enthusiasts.
