Techno City
format: 12"

lab price: $7.00
available: yes
item #: lp-2728

quick audio picks:  1 2
Awesome piece of electro from 1988. The intro of "Techno City(1)" samples liberally from Kraftwerk and Bambaataa, but comes into its own as a west coast electro-bass track with weird samples and the vocoded vocals of MC Eiht. A little after...   expand review  the midway point, the track takes it to the proverbial next level when it introduces a breakbeat to the formula, ripping down the walls of your local Olive Garden. Egg Foo Young prolly digs this shit. -the mgmnt

These dudes are so corny it's the shit. I don't know if it was cool then and just hasn't aged gracefully or what (I was like -1 years old when this came out), but good god man this shit is a fucking...   expand review  cornpone meeting straight out of Lil Abner. Guys, "Mission Possible" is an electro song with the synth line from "Mission Impossible" played over it. "He's Bionic" features bad raps about a guy who is half-robot and an Egyptian Lover bite. "House Calls" has that awesome spaceship taking off bass sound and Dr. Dre telling you he's "not an average gigolo." This shit is so completely 80s it's incredible. Cheese factor aside, these songs used in the right context will blow shit up. Throw them into your party classics sets with old Bootsy and "Every Way But Loose" and people will definitely feel it. I am probably herbing myself out right now because these tracks are what cholos ride to and shit, but man I am not from LA, what can I say. -Bob Bannister
