These are The Breaks (of Hip Hop)
In hip hop music, a break is ANY short piece of music that can be sampled and repeated over and over to create its own melody or drum loop, creating what's called a "Break Beat".
Originally hip hop artists & producers would sample breaks from jazz records, and then cut and loop them together to create unique music for a new song.
Today, ANY previously created song or music across any genre, as well as any interesting section of a song (even sound clips not necessarily from music) can serve as the source for a great "break beat" to loop.
Once a great (hip hop) break is target, it's looped as a core melody, and additional instruments may be added to flesh out the new sound.
