Reviews & Discussion
If by any means you never heard this chef d'oeuvre, do not miss the chance to hear this quintessential album made by one of the masters of the old school Hip Hop Kurtis Mantronik and his companion MC Tee. Perfect for the break dance lovers, the tracks brings the roots of Hip Hop melted with electro-funk influences. "Needle To The Groove" is a shining example and perhaps the most important tune of this Long Play, even though "Bassline" is another massive hit of that time, specially edited by The Latin Rascals. The Mega-Mix, specially edited by The Diamond Two of Chet Nunez & Charlie Dee is also highly recommended.
