Breaks Co-Op Profile
Breaks Co-Op was formed (as Breaks Cooperative) in 1997 by Auckland rapper and producer Zane Lowe, following the demise of his previous group, hip-hop crew Urban Disturbance.
Lowe hooked up with Hamish Clark, aka Hame (ex-Christchurch crew Beats N Pieces), who had collaborated on a track on Urban Disturbance’s sole album, 37 Degrees Lattitude. Signing to Kane Massey’s Deepgrooves label, the pair finished recording their debut album Roofers in May 1997, two days before they both moved to the UK.
