An amen break waveform refers to the distinctive audio waveform of a drum break from the song “Amen, Brother” by The Winstons. It features a prominent transient peak, a short decay curve, a sustained level, and a sudden release curve. This waveform became iconic in electronic music, particularly in genres like hip-hop, jungle, and drum and bass, and is often used as a foundation for breakbeats and sampling.
