Amen Brother is the name of a song by
The Winstons recorded in 1969. It features a rolling
Hammond organ, blasting
horns and some
hard hitting wicked drums. The song runs by you at a frantic pace until the 1:25 mark where the
tempo slows down and you have the
drum break of the tune.
This is definitely the most used
drum break in the
genre of
jungle and probably all of
electronic dance music. It's also on every single track on
NiN's
Halo 11 in one
form or another. It's unbelievably
phat and even found in
hip-hop tunes like
3rd Bass's
Wordz of Wisdom and
Eric B & Rakim's
Casualties Of War.
Other widely used breaks include
Apache by the
Incredible Bongo Band and
Funky Drummer by
James Brown's drummer,
Clyde Stublefield.
