Dynamix II is an American DJ act and record label specializing in electro, Florida breaks, and Miami bass. Their 1986 single "Just Give The DJ A Break", reached gold status. Over 600,000+ units of the record were sold and the song reached No. 50 in the United Kingdom in 1987. The (Sun City, 1987) record, was considered to be a "formative and influential" in the Miami-bass genre.[1] The track was one of first Miami Bass records to use a Roland TR 808 bass drum.
Dynamix II was one of the first "ghetto-bass" acts to gain international recognition. Their music included heavy sampling and has itself been widely sampled including by such acts as the Chemical Brothers.[2]
