The Amen Break

A brilliant documentary on The Amen Break

The amen break is one of the most famous and commonly used 6 seconds of drumming out there. It's been used by countless artists including, NWA, NIN, Squarepusher, and Aphex twin. This is more than just a history this is a thought provoking commentary as well. I hope you guys enjoy.

I love this documantary!
I found it a couple of years ago on a friends computer. Every time I watch it I find some permutation of the amen break sneaking into whatever music I'm writing at the time :)
