Not that familiar with modern Breakcore artists tbh, but Goreshit and Loli In Early 20s are some of the biggest ones at the moment. DJ Kuroneko and bye2 have both made a decent amount of Breakcore, though it's not a majority of either of their discographies as they make a lot of Jungle, DnB and Hardcore as well. For the record, Goreshit and Loli In Early 20s also make a decent amount of Jungle/DnB, it's just that Breakcore takes up a majority of their discographies.
Speaking of which, there's a lot of crossover between Breakcore and Jungle/DnB at the moment, so many of the newer Breakcore artists tend to be more along the lines of Jungle/DnB/multigenre artists that put out a significant amount of Breakcore. A lot of is due to a massive amount US zoomers discovering Breakcore/DnB/Jungle within the last couple years, many of whom have never been into any form of electronic music before. And since DnB never really gained a foothold in the US, there's no preexisting cultural infrastructure for this wave of US zoomers to latch onto when it comes to DnB, Breakcore and Jungle, so they've basically built up their own understandings of the genres for scratch.
The most annoying thing that's resulted from this is that Breakcore has significantly different meanings to US zoomers compared to what you're used to. Some people use Breakcore as being interchangeable with DnB, some people think Breakcore specifically refers to Jungle/DnB with an anime/emo aesthetic, and some people even use Breakcore to describe anything with a breakbeat or anything that specifically uses the Amen Break. On the positive side though, there is a lot more crossover between Jungle/DnB and Breakcore than there used to be, which is kinda neat.
tl:dr: If you look up "Breakcore mix" on YouTube nowadays, at least ~90% of the mixes you'll find are actually Jungle/DnB mixes, since US zoomers don't know the difference between Jungle, DnB and Breakcore.
Hell yeah, thanks for the recs! I've actually heard some Goreshit, which I liked. Have you ever listened to Otto von Schirach? He's kinda my current obsession, ever since I saw him play a show in Miami. His earlier stuff from the 2000's is full-on breakcore madness, and his more recent stuff is hard to describe, it's like a mix of booty-shaking Miami bass with breakcore craziness. He just has an awesome weird psychedelic vibe, and his songs reference this whole self-made mythology involving the Bermuda Triangle, triangles generally, a superhero name "Supermeng," pterodactyls, demons, papaya magick and butts. He also plays a lot of benefit shows for queer orgs in Miami which is pretty rad, and he toured with Atari Teenage Riot and Skinny Puppy back in the day. I'd recommend checking out his boiler room set on Youtube for a general sense of his live vibe (although he only does one breakcore song), his videos are all great too.
