Yeah was great π I reckon Derek B 'Bad young brother' is the hardest record ever to appear on TOTP.
Emcee, Drum break, transformer scratch, touch of vocoder, Prince & WildStyle samples for a chorus π Magic.
Mad to think he got on TOTP with a total sample fest in 88.
R.I.P. Mr Harris
So good. Ever hear the remix with the Kraftwerk sample? π
Massive. Asher's solo album is slick too.
This one with Prento Youth ππ₯

Sad to hear about UK Hip Hop producer Simon harris. Music of Life label had some bangin' tunes late 80s - early 90s. Lot of 'em got sampled on early Rave tunes. I put a little mash together πΆ

Music charts exactly 40 years ago today from Street Scene magazine - 23rd November 1985.
Hip Hop, Reggae & Funk. Some crackin' tunes in there. Doug E Fresh on the cover - he showed up on Top Of The Pops this week too in '85.
Think he meant over reliance on sequencers & daws more than drum machines & synths there. He liked his LM1 π
My clumsy post meant he probably LOVED the 808 but couldn't use it publicly 'cos it was 'their' thing now (Jam, Lewis, SOS) but who knows. Cheers for link πβοΈ
You just know that Prince ran out & bought an 808 after hearing the S.O.S. Band results π bet there's some experiments in the vault π΅οΈββοΈ

Chris Frantz of Talking Heads / Tom Tom Club played my 'Once In A Lifetime' Dub mix on his radio show Friday. How cool is that? Thanks Chris π Will get full mix up soon.
Ah they were okay - never pretended to be some hardcore dudes. Fun Jazzy Pop Rap tunes from what I remember. I used to play 'Very easy to assemble'
I see Cold Crush Brothers in there - love that record - maybe even more than the earlier ones π£ Kay Gee is a Don.
Yeah I have basic stems, Francois K does some bangin mixes π
thanks Danny - bit of dubby fun with a classic π
