    also an important question:

    is the crowd dancing? if so, it might just be you feeling that way.

    I don;t like too many breaks either.

    I find it tires the crowd more than giving them a break.

    Irritates me when i am grooving and then break....groove...break...groove...break.

    I tend to put Cue Points around my breaks and play em if I want...else I skip past and keep the pressure.

    beatslicer take a loop from the intro beat while dry/wet is 0 then when you get to the long break (That I also am not so fund of) add some wet to your Slicer and you got an underlying beat to the not so boring break now. and you can use that Slice/Rool/loop to make some extra buildup or exsitment.
    Think it loop rool, in VDJ. Some of Pioneer mixers also have this rool.

    This is what you use Ableton Live for. Personal edits can be as simple as removing the break.
