The tightly-knit UK breakbeat community are pulling their collective musical muscle to raise money towards the ongoing crisis in Sudan. Long-time breakbeat protagonist Smiley from Shut Up & Dance is co-ordinating the project, calling for tracks to be supplied for a fund-raising CD named 'Sudan Break Beat Crisis'.

Acts already pledging tunes to the project include Aquasky, Audio Bullies, Botchit & Scarper, Freestylers, Plumps, Tayo, DJ Hype, Zinc, Mechanoise, Deekline, Supercharged and Shut Up & Dance.
More top artists are expected to contribute, with all tracks being either brand new or exclusive mixes released for the first time, making it a truly heavyweight compilation. There is also talk of a future fund-raising tour too.

When asked about why he had taken the project on, Smiley said, "We wanted to help these people in this great time of need, and what's good is everyone involved in the breakbeat genre feels the same way.
"The idea came about from a club night at the Audio Club in Brighton by the label Supercharged. They had a one-off night whereby £1 from everyone's entrance fee was donated to the Sudan crisis. I thought it would be a good idea to do something on a bigger scale involving everyone within the breaks scene."
