In a time when the breaks game seems faded, labeled as “dead” and the pioneers that created the sound has moved on to other genres, Def Tonez manages to continue to bring the funk and push the breaks. In a short few years Def Tonez has become one of the few leading DJs that holds the 'Breaks' flag up high. Always on a mission to keep the sound alive and bring it all back to Sydney, Australia.
Def Tonez is one half of Broken Stylus. A fresh duo to come out of Sydney. With his partner in crime DJ Ryza they wreck havoc in the clubs and on the radio airwaves.
