| - | In DJ parlance, a break is where all elements of a song (e.g., pads, basslines, vocals), ''except for percussion'', disappear for a time. In hip hop and electronica, a short break is also known as "[[the drop]]", and is sometimes accented by cutting off everything, even the percussion. This is distinguished from a '''breakdown''', a [[section (music)|section]] where the composition is deliberately deconstructed to minimal elements (usually the percussion or rhythm section with the vocal re-introduced over the minimal backing), all other parts having been gradually or suddenly cut out. (Brewster and Broughton 2003, p.79) | ||
