Psybreaks is a form of electronic music that developed as a fusion of Psytrance and Breakbeat in the mid 2000s, splicing Breakbeat basslines and rhythms into otherwise heavily Psytrance-influenced tracks. Currently (Feb 2007) many Psybreaks producers tour on the main Breakbeat and (more commonly) Psytrance scenes, as the genre is still sufficiently new to not have developed its own independent scene yet. Some view Psybreaks as being simply another addition to the existing Psytrance "stable", and so it is possible that Psybreaks will become one of many sub-genres of Psytrance, rather than a separate genre in its own right.
