this little drum sound...

[Cat Gas]

It's in both

and

but slight variations.
The noise which sounds a bit like a hamster being hit with a meat tenderizer. anyone know what it is?

Haha brilliant

This is the infamous "Think Break"

Which originates from this song ...

The sound is actually of a person saying something like "now girl" or something like that, but because the break has been sped up (also affecting the pitch) from about 110 bpm to 174 bpm you can understand why it goes all chipmunk style

There's a few variations of the Think Break but they all originate from the Lyn Collins track

You'll recognise another variation of the Think Break in TC - Swerve, the same version of the break which was also used in Dizzee Rascal - Flex

 

[Olllie]

Everyone should post more tunes with the Think Break..

It's probably the second most popular break used in dnb after the amen obviously

Copta break gets used quite a bit as well, also the explorer break and hot pants break, there's a few common ones
